birds need to 'plug away
Seattle had more scoring chances than the opposition in all four of those games,converse femme pas cher, but 124 T birds shots resulted in only 10 goals. The T birds are 4 9 4 0 this season, a record that reflects the futility of being 1 5 in games decided by one goal.
"There's no sense changing anything," Chynoweth said. "We're working hard, getting the scoring chances, but right now we're not getting the breaks. We just have to continue to march ahead."
Although the T birds could use injuries as an excuse, Chynoweth thinks the problem is more mental than physical.
"Goals are tough to come by at every level,louboutin chaussure, and you have to have a certain mind set and attitude and pay a price to get them," he said.
"I really believe that scoring is about attitude and belief,louboutin pas cher femme."
A nine year veteran player in the National Hockey League,escarpins louboutin pas cher, Chynoweth isn't given to throwing fits, either behind the bench or in the dressing room.
"There are certain things I've addressed with our team behind closed doors and one on one," he said. "You can only blow your top and get angry so many times in a season."
Center Nate Thompson said team confidence hasn't really wavered.
"We just need to regroup and get three wins this weekend,air max pas chere," Thompson said. "We're just trying to keep it together. I think we're really close to turning things around."
Thompson,converse soldes, a sixth round pick in the National Hockey League draft by the Boston Bruins, is third on the team in scoring with 12 points.
"I've played all right,mulberry factory shop," Thompson said, "but I can do a lot more."
Seattle is 0 4 1 this season when wearing its blue road uniforms.
If the T birds don't snap the streak in Vancouver tomorrow,chaussure louboutin femme, they will get a chance to do it at home Saturday because the Portland Winter Hawks asked to wear white for that game and Seattle general manager Russ Farwell agreed.
The T birds will be wearing those road uniforms a lot this month.
After Saturday's home game,converses pas cher, the T birds play five straight on the road and don't return home until Nov. 22 for a rematch with the Everett Silvertips.
Scoring throughout the WHL is down significantly this season,nike tn en ligne.
According to figures compiled by Gregg Drinnan of the Kamloops Daily News, an average of only 5.5 goals have been scored in games this season. Last year, 6.7 goals were scored per game.
