Mudbugs On Edge of Elimination

After the drama-filled series in the South Division semifinals with Lone Star Brahmas where every episode (game) had an emotional twist and turn, the Shreveport Mudbugs fell flat in the first two games of the South Division finals in games one and two in Oklahoma City against the Oklahoma Warriors.  Granted, though, the Oklahoma Warriorrs ended the regular season with the best record overall in the NAHL.  The Warriors also had easily taken care of the Amarillo Wranglers and had taken a few extra days more rest than Shreveport,  Not an excuse though.  If hockey only had two periods, Shreveport would have been fine.  They matched Oklahoma 2-2.  Unfortunately, hockey games have three periods and that is where the difference came.  Oklahoma outscored Shreveport 7-0 in the final period.   Was it fatigue from the Lone Star series?  Was it just outplayed by the Warriors?  Who knows? The reality is that Shreveport has to sweep the home series this weekend and then take care of business in Oklahoma City to get back to Blaine.
