As they began one of two simultaneous round robin series in the Alliance Playoff semis, Hamilton defeated Sun-County during their opening game at home last Saturday. Although charged with boundless energy after eleven days of absence from the game, the Huskies were never presumptuous about their lead as the Panthers kept them on their toes. After several intense practices with playoff strategy in mind to develop effective plays in the upcoming games, the home team reflects on the efficiency of puck movement, solid fore-checking and play-making defensive manoeuvres that hope to increase the gap in goal percentage against any opposition, a figure which has been identified as a possible factor in determining which single team in this series will advance to the highly anticipated finals.
