Believe me, as a Tips fan, I know all about Portland being in your head

Cougars fans - how concerned are you the team dropped all 3 games against Portland... some in pretty bad fashion?

I was at the game on Saturday in Portland. PG was the far better team in the first, but looked gassed in the 3rd.

Might be homerism but I think they can beat those guys. Just need to play 60 minutes. Now that they know what guys they have back, the team will start to gel again. I was pretty pissed after Wednesdays game though not gonna lie.

I do too. We probably beat them last year too if they don't take Parascak out for the rest of the series.

PG looks to be trending back in the expected direction right now, comfortably leading the division.

Saturdays game against Kelowna was painful, regardless of how bed the refs were they can't expect to win the west this year if they keep choking away leads like that. It was like they just gave up in the final 2 minutes.

It wasn't just the final minutes. We only had 4 shots in the first, and 7 in both the 2nd and 3rd. Friday we set a season low in shots at 23, then Saturday one upped it at 18 shots. We need to get pucks to the net if we want a shot at the western banner.

Yeah that is a good point, not having Heidt & Lajoie hurts but that still was a game they should have won. Cougars seem to play down to their opponent at times & Ravensbergen hasn't found his form from last year yet. He has been very up & down this year.
