I was surprised to see that MSU didn’t have more games under its belt. An exhibition game, split a pair with NMU two weekends ago and off last weekend.

Why, why pass it over when you've got tons of room to skate in and shoot?! One-timers are overrated anyway.
Good to see our power play looking so… familiar…

A freshman gets the first meaningful goal (hopefully of many) during this season.

Well, Barron for one certainly isn’t afraid to shoot. He’s let a lot of shots fly tonight

goddamit so much time on the doorstep and then we screw up and allow a 2 on 1 to go down 2-1.
this isn't a game we should be losing.

We’ve had plenty of control down low, but our play at both blue lines has been dreadful. Lots of fumbled pucks.

Spartans have no offense but our turnovers and they've cashed in 3 out of 4. Meanwhile we've got a team that doesn't seem able to generate a look good enough for them to want to take a shot.Iceberg
Make that 3-1. Rough way to the start the year.
And as I type MSU takes a shot that nobody on Cornell would be willing to take and Galajda's done for the day down 4-1.

Being at the game, I felt they were "tentative" at times with their passes... And, what's with those cross-ice passes (at the blue line) being picked off? I don't recall a team doing that to us as much as MSU just did? They must have noticed on the videos that we were a little careless with that..

spending about 10 Min on the PP and 3.5 on a 6x5 and got no pts and gave up 1..
MSU has some quickness, but really we we had the best of play thru center ice, turned the corner multiple times with speed, came off the wall multiple times, got the puck to the net over and over as well.
2 or 3 bad passes lost a game that by quality of shots we probably should have won 6-2.
clean up the sloppy passing and it was a solid effort.
and the shot count wasnt really reflecting of the effort either, most of the stuff in wrap arounds were not given shot attempts and we probably had 10-15 of the those.

Hard to outplay a team and lose 5-2 without any eng, but that's what happened. Lots of sloppiness and we paid for some brutal mistakes. Matt looked bad.
I hope this was our Shit Happens game.

I joined with about 7 min left in the 2nd and it has been cutting in/out. Frustrating.

Aside from in goal, I thought the Red played well. We’ll win a lot of games vs. lesser competition.
But we need our goalie, whoever that turns out to be, to be “on” to compete for league and national honors. Galajda was not there this weekend.
PS Andreev is super fun to watch. I like that line.

My takeaway from the weekend is that while we thought a lot about the goals we lost in Angello/Yates/Rauter, and how we had our whole blueline coming back with Galajda, we probably didn't worry enough about what we lost on defense from our departing forwards. That said, the good defensemen were the guys who kept giving the puck away so maybe opening weekend isn't the right time for me to make sweeping judgments.

You didn't mention Galajda. He had at least a couple of goals each night that he could have made, probably should have made and last year did make.
No, he wasn't THE reason we lost, but he certainly contributed a lot.
His play is the only concern that I really have for the rest of the year. I think Schafer will straighten out the defense and the third period Saturday showed the offense can score, and I expect they will be able to score enough to win, if the defense can begin to look like the defenses we're used to seeing.
But what about Galajda? I don't know enough about our coaches to know how well they can get him to see and make the changes that he needs. Not that they can't do it, one or another of them may be a very good goalie coach. It's just more difficult for me to pick up where the coaches may have helped a goalie. It's a lot easier to see what changes the O & D make.
Here's hoping.

i only saw the fri night game.. didnt really make any tough saves, didnt make any big saves. but i cant fault him for a breakaway, a 2on1, and for the pp goals even I dont think 3 of them were really tough saves and at least 1 was off a CU player.
if the team doesnt give the puck away under no pressure 2 goals dont happen and thats fixable.
as for the offense, it created a ton of chances and thats what you need to do, i dont think we have A+ snipers on the team so lots of chances might be what we have to create.
it didnt help 2-3 of the best shots they hit the goalie more than anything he really did, and we missed another 2-3 open nets as we usually do, on top of not being able to stuff home time after time good plays to get the puck to the paint..
really no business scoring 2 goals on friday with the chance quality they had, the goalie was solid but not that solid.
