again , vipers hold the lead going into the second but blow it in the third with silverbacks gaining two goals into the third. Hmmm, vipers cant hold a lead , no goal scorers a common problem and lets see if they hold true to form and take penalities near the end of the third to give the silverbacks what they need to win. Seems to be an on going pattern. If we keep this up by the end of the season if we make it will probably go out in the first round. It sure sounds like Mark Ferner needs to make some adjustments and fast. Go,Vipers,Go.
