Did you train GS last training day? I have had to sacrifice last week and this week in order to assure a win.

Nope, I had already beat my QF opponent twice while playing TIE so I figured I was safe. Then the #2 seed got upset and #3 went CT so I figured I was safe there too. I'll see the results of game 1 in the finals and try to decide off that whether I need to GS on the last week or not.

BTW, why would you not do a 2-3 zone vs. an obvious LI offence?

2 3 zone can be hit and miss. It is a gamble and if it works you only get a small boost to stop LI. But if they have good passing they get the ball to the guys inside with more ease with less def stopping the passes in.

The only time to top teams use a 2 3 is if they have little chance of winning regardless.
Pick the top side in any league and see how often if at all they use 2 3 even with 90% of teams playing LI.
Just checked 15 games from the top team in Australia the last few season who got as high as 6 world ranking from memory and he never used 2 3 in those games. NEVER.
Check out any successful team and I think you will find the same result.

You won in spite of the fact you played 2-3 imo. If you had played m2m you would have won in regular time by alot more.
