[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Madison beat Westfield by 9, chippy game all around but Westfield hits got a little dirty at the end. 5 on Madison performed well as always, Madison defense looked strong, and both Madison goalies played well. Westfield goalie did not play well, only having 2-3 saves. Westfield offense couldn’t handle the Madison defensive pressure at all and got the ball taken by a well placed check by Madison on the majority of their plays. Madison looks good and seems to be about even with Indy at this point, but it will be interesting to see how they handle battlefield[/quote]

Nice spin, Madison dad.  A neutral take on the game:  Madison was the better team and the score was indicative of that.  Madison was also the only team hit with an unsportsmanlike penalty in the fourth -- deservedly so.  As for your goalie comment. Westfield goalies had considerably more saves than the Madison goalies.  That is not a dig on the Madison goalies, it's kudos to the great play of Madison's defense that did not allow many shots and kudos to a Madison offense that generated a lot more shots than the 14-15 shots on goal necessary for Westfield's goalies to only have "2-3 saves."

“Madison was also the only team hit with an unsportsmanlike penalty in the fourth -- deservedly so.”

Agreed that the Madison hit in the 4th was late and deserved the flag.  I also saw a late hit (maybe 2?) by Westfield that wasn’t called in the first half. Then there was the instance in the second half where the Westfield player broke his stick while cross checking a player from Madison, and then followed through with the fragments of his stick, but that one was apparently legal too.  Good neutral observations, lol[/quote]
