Miami-Minnesota Game 7

[ahockeyguy 110]

               So it is all down to this. Down to Game 7. One might say the Miami Marauders are feeling the pressure. After all, they had a 3-1 lead on Minnesota in the first-round matchup of the VHLM playoffs. But is this really true? Miami is an expansion franchise in their inaugural season. Minnesota is a seasoned team who has performed fairly well at virtually all points this season. Miami should feel lucky just to be involved in the playoffs conversation, while Minnesota should have title aspirations.

 

               At this point, one might be forgiven for thinking the Marauders are preparing excuses ahead of time. As if they are anticipating losing Game 7 and heading for vacation spots for the off-season. But one need not think that. All this article’s burden maintains is that Minnesota is the one who should be feeling the pressure. Kosmo Kramerev is leading the VHLM playoffs in scoring. Not only is he a D-man but he’s on an expansion franchise as well! Both Kramerev and Wolf Stansson are in the top 10 in blocked shots. Basically, on offense and defense these blueliners have it covered.

 

               But what about offense? With Andre LeBastard leading the way, the forward lines are scoring well. Bacon is between the pipes, often stealing games. The Miami Marauders just have to be sure they don’t give this game away and the series is theirs!
