Yellow Ice (TM): A Smelly update from the Spengler Cup.
Game 1: Geneve-Servette 5 - 0 Rochester Americans
Shameful, terrible performance by Buffalo's farm team. You could say they're like Buffalo, only lazier. Looked like they didn't care at all about the tournament they were invited to. The only ones who looked like they cared at all and played were Hackett (32 saves on 37 shots against, left alone so many times) and Luke Adam, who showed effort, skill, speed and grit, the latest of which got him a 5+game halfway through the second. After that, the game got real chippy, with dirty hits, brawls, elbows to heads and tons if chirping. And Kaleta didn't even play.
Overall, shamefully uninspired by Rochester. If they keep playing like this, I hope they never get invited again, this tournament is better than that.
Next up: Vitkovice Steel (CZE) vs Team Canada. This game should be MUCH better, as both teams have had great performances in the past.
