“We’re still defending well, but it just seems like we’re having a tough time getting inside. We tried to throw more pucks at the net and create second and third chances, but that’s two games in a row where it hasn’t happened for us [offensively].”
– John Gruden
This 3-1 loss to Cleveland on Saturday was almost a carbon copy of the Toronto Marlies‘ shutout defeat to Syracuse in the previous game. The Marlies didn’t create enough offensive pressure in the critical areas, giving Monsters goaltender Jet Greaves an easy time between the pipes.
