Cornell 2 Princeton 1

[Jim Hyla]

So, any reason I should keep my Princeton video for the rest of the month, or cancel it now?

Don't you want to watch the tigers whoop Colgate?

I do, but that's on ESPNU.:-}

Great job by the men to bounce back and take the lead again immediately after Princeton tied it (on what was a fluky goal, a shot through traffic took a deflection somewhere and rainbowed up and in).  Garman played a very good game - I wouldn't necessarily say a *great* game, only because I don't know that he made many spectacular saves, if any, but he did make *all* the easy saves.  He really was not at fault at all on the Princeton goal.

Thank you Garman and D'Ag!!!   On to Quinnipiac!

Basically this.  To amplify, I began to feel very "comfortable" with Garman for the same reason Josh mentioned, that he was making all the easy saves.  That's a basis for a defensive strategy, the "rope-a-dope" that we used to play with Clarkson back in the 90s.  Let them take all the outside tosses they want, gobble up the rebounds, win faceoffs, and then turn the other way.

Right, that was also what made Leneveu great: not that he made amazing saves, but that he almost never missed the straightforward ones.  It meant the opposition had to do something special to even have a chance of scoring.

And the opposite is what happened to McKee. He could be spectacular, but in his last year began to miss some routine ones.
