I'm wondering, after how well Moorhead seemed to be doing at the start of the season (Pummeling White Bear, Bemidji, Grand Rapids, Roseau and Buffalo, as well as tying a very good Fargo team) what has happened to Moorhead? Are they simply lacking confidence after this losing streak, or what? I don't see what could possibly warrant going from beating a team 7-1 at the start of the season to losing to them 2-3 nine games later. Losses to teams like Edina, Hill Murray, STA and Duluth East are expected to happen, but it seems very rare that a Moorhead team would struggle this bad at this point in the season.Moorhead @ Fargo South T 2-2

I believe lack of confidence is at the heart of their problem. In almost every game,they've had a similar number of shots or more shots than their opponents.With that many chances in each game,it seems like the main problem is the inability to finish.This is too good of a team to lose 8 games in a row. I hope it turns around soon,and I believe it will.HockeyHigh wrote:I'm wondering, after how well Moorhead seemed to be doing at the start of the season (Pummeling White Bear, Bemidji, Grand Rapids, Roseau and Buffalo, as well as tying a very good Fargo team) what has happened to Moorhead?
