SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Hockey Club has lost eight of its last 10 at home and getting far more positive results on the road.
Why? Is it possible the Delta Center doesn't have the home ice advantage fans thought possible prior to the season? Or is it more likely that the Utah Hockey Club is a bit too jazzed up to play in front of a home crowd? Does it come down to composure and managing emotions?
After listening to head coach Andre Tourigny after Friday's loss to Colorado, SLC Puck Austin Facer thinks its a mindset issue, not an issue of performance. Tourigny's experience and levelheadedness will be heavily relied on to help Utah weather the storm and get back to winning in front of the home crowd.
