AAA Stars edge Legionnaires in barn burner
There were quite a few times in Saturday’s AAA Stars game when head coach Norm Johnston had his head in his hands because he didn’t like what he saw.
It was an exciting 6-5 win for the fans, but for him and his coaching staff, the sloppy play was all too evident.
“We have to be better…defensively, got to be better,” Johnston said after the game, which was what he told the players too. “We didn’t play the system after we got the lead. We [started] playing individually and didn’t play the system, and when you start not going wide, not driving the net and not getting two guys on the puck, that bothers me big time.
“But a win’s a win…right now all that matters is getting these kids to win and score goals.”
