Colgate 1 at Cornell 2 - Postgame

[sah67]

And again, they cut off the radio feed before Jason's done and before we even hear the 3 stars.

Really fun game.  Phenomenal performance by Scrivens, and there's not much really to be said about Greening...fantastic!

Hope Fontas and M. Kennedy are ok for tomorrow night.

[Trotsky]

Agreed on all points.  That was one of the best single effort goals I've ever seen.

greening seemed to play with an extra step 3-4 times tonight..

That was the best game of the year.  I LOVED how we gutted it out there during the third without two centers and two pkers--fantastic effort all around.  This is the kind of game that could really get this team going; hopefully we'll look back at tonight as a turning point.

as Ari would say "no passengers" tonight

My 3 Stars:

1) Greening
2) Scrivens
3) Winchester

Tech is up 1-0 on CC in the 1st.

February 1st and Bruno finally manages their 2nd win of the year...and it's against Sucks!

I think tonight's game was a great win for Cornell.  Scrivens looked great, especially on some of the saves against Winchester.  Winchester was skating on two different lines and may be a little worn out for tomorrow's game.  We will have to see.  I think the refs should have called a tighter game and put more guys in the box for contact to the head, hitting from behind and hitting after the whistle.  The missed calls seemed to favor Colgate, but obviously, I am biased.

I wonder why RedCast is allowed to take the picture from Time Warner but not the sound.  It would've been nice to hear the interviews from Greening et al.

Of course, Jason did have the description of the night...something to the effect of 'you got the feeling that if Greening had to skate through a brick wall to get that puck, he would have.'  He got hooked, had to dodge a broken stick in his path, and then a half-deke of the defender to sneak off the wrister and beat Dex to the glove side.  Marvelous.  I loved Greening's reaction and Topher chasing him down after the winner.

Entertaining game...bodies flying, sticks breaking, swooping forwards.  Good stuff.  Still a letdown for the Red when Colgate seemed to dominate much of the 2nd.

I saw how Kennedy got shaken up.  What happened to Fontas?

5 teams within a point of each other.  Could've been 6 but Harvard...well...Harvard sucks.  Losing to a 1-win team.

Girlfriend who was in attendance informs me that about 6 Colgate fans were ejected throughout the game.

If the box score is right, Princeton scored THREE extra attacker goals while allowing no empty netters. http://www.uscho.com/box/?date=20080201&vis=pri&home=uc&gender=m

I talked to a gate fan who said that they were ejected for standing, let back in when they showed that standing is not prohibited on the back of the ticket and then finally kicked out when they were told that it did say they could be kicked out for any reason whatsoever.::flipc::

Now what we need is for Princeton to find a way to lose a few Ivy games.

Pulling the goalie with nearly 7 mins left in the period?  Might as well I guess when you're already down 4-0 and have a pp.

According to the collegehockeystats.net box score (which shows penalties), none of the EAGs seem to be on delayed penalties, unless Princeton managed to maintain possession for 1 minute 38 seconds, seeing as the first EAG was at 12:58, and the penalty was called back at 11:20.

Excellent game!! Scrivens had some very big saves.

Though I am wondering if the woofing Gods can read minds. Right before the Colgate PPG, I was thinking (to myself) that this might be the night Scrivens steals a game for us, especially considering that Colgate had the bulk of the play in the second and we had missed on some good chances.

Then Colgate scored and I felt like the announcer that mentions "no hitter" in the 9th inning.

Greening had a great game. I hope the TWC announcers have him back on for tomorrow night's intermission interviews. .
