Tigers Shrink the Giants 5-1

Catchy title eh?

I was expecting a much tougher game from the Giants. Although you have to give them some leeway as they just traded away 3 of their players prior to the game, and newly acquired F Brett Breitkreuz (20) and F Thomas Vincour (19) weren't in the lineup yet.

With a depleted lineup the giants looked a little off their game. The tigers held the majority of the play and I thought outcome of the game was never really in doubt, despite the Giants outshouting the Tigers 30-26. It seemed like the Giants got a lot of their shots in the powerplay.

The tigers 4th line of Grbavac, Petryk, and Bredo played extremely well. They pinned the Giants in their end every single shift they played.

Bretton Cameron looks like hes going through a bit of a funk right now. I think he needs to forget about getting points and focus on winning the 1on1 battles and the points will come.

Where Bretton Cameron has trailed off Joey Frazer has come alive, potting 5 goals in the last 7 games.

Wacey Hamilton and Emerson Etem had pretty good games for themselves
