That's the way I look at it, so it kind of takes the emphasis off winning and losing. I take more pride in a recent 5-4 OT loss than I do in my wins on my first team (my first team was by far the strongest team in the league, and now I play on a team where I have to stand on my head to keep opponents out of double digit territory) because I played better with more of the pressure for the outcome on me.
That's a pretty good point. When evaluating a game, one of the things I look at is the number of soft goals I let in. All goals are bad, but those are killers.

And then I drink to forget them!
