LA owning the Wolves....so far

[Scurvy 1,487]

At the 14-game mark of the season the Vancouver Wolves are not where they want to be. In 4 games to the Los Angeles Stars they are 0-4.  Now, the Stars are packed with talent and Napoleon Dynamite is on fire with 9 G 17 A 26 PTS and Todd Cooke has 12 G 12 G 24 Pts making them a very tough team offensively.  And in Net, Art Vandelay is a brick wall with .935 save percentage with 2 shutouts. 

 

What can the Wolves do to answer?? First, improve team defense.  Brandt Fuhr is holding it down in net but overall team defense seems to struggle against the Stars. Brian Payne is a -1 and Pierre Emile Bouchard is -2, not numbers those two are used to seeing.  

 

Next, the team needs to break out offensively.  Surprisingly the slow start of the Wolves occurred last year as well, and they went on to challenge for a Cup.  Once they get dialed in this club has as much or more offensive talent ready to explode.  

 

I like this early budding rivalry (well one sided so far) with LA and ho
