NP started out fast. Short shifts and using all the lines. Then Pennridge scored first and the bench got short and the shifts got long. McDyre double shifting. Game slowed way down which is what Pennridge wants. Game was over after the first goal.

have to agree wholeheartedly with lightthelamp. np coach like the crnorth and the cbsouth coach fell right into the trap of playing into pennridge's style. when this happens pennridge's stars take over. np had more depth and they should have played to their strength. good luck pennridge.
The shot totals for N Penn are far from accurate. The scorekeepers were putting Pennridge shots up for N Penn in the first period. N Penn may have had a slight edge in shots but not what was on the scoreboard. Playing against that trap is easier said than done when you have to deal with good defensemen, forwards that backcheck better than anyone else and a team that has obviously bought into Reagos system. McDyre was completely shut down by Moyer and Lighthart all night.
pennridge looks good. they are well-coached and have quality players in moyer welch and lighthart. i haven't seen conestoga play, but i think pennridge will be tough to beat, especially if they get more solid goaltending.
