They just recorded their first shot on net 

And ended up with the same number of shots as Laval at seven apiece. Amerks got better as the period progressed.

Rocket players cross checking, tackling, slashing, spearing, face washing. Amerks players just taking it.  Dunne hit someone, and caused a would be turnover but he barely has AHL skill, so the puck just sat there until the Rocket player recovered from the hit and skated away with it.

Evan Mossbrooks was delighted to tell us that as well. Honestly, the only person more tired of Mossbrooks jinxing the Amerks is Don Stevens.  I know this because every time Evan does it, he has to apologize after Stevens admonishes him on air.  I love Don Stevens.

Thumbs up to the short kings of the world. Glad your better half doesn’t mind looking down on you. 😀

Laval saved by a fast whistle.

[PromoTheRobot]

Should have shot sooner in that short power play.

ROUSEK TIES IT!!!

Amerks getting absolutely pummeled physically.  No calls. Just Amerks players cowering with delight. Sigh. 

[PromoTheRobot]

And another.

[inkman]

Well series over. Thanks for the great season Amerks.

Defensive error allows another goal. 4-1

What an embarrassment.  Coaching staff fixing nothing.  What are we doing here??

Our coaching staff doesn’t seems to care.  What are we doing here?

One coaching staff seems to care.  

How did the locals treat you?

[PromoTheRobot]

We now return to our regular programming....

 

[Derrico]

Levi should have been better and this coaching staff should have been better.  What is happening here??

Ryan Miller v2.0 has now given up 12 goals in the past 3 games. Neat.

This is the correct answer. Laval is the better team.
When the Amerks can matchup lines with last change at home, we saw two one goal games. But the Amerks need some puck luck or an otherworldly goaltending performance to beat Laval. The talent gap is noticeable.
