St. Lawrence 0 @ Cornell 1, Final

[TimV]

He also said SLU kept the game "under control". ::wtf::

In the sense of no score, I guess but the possession time/ shots are gonna be crazy red.

Maybe I'm falling victim to the whatever is most recent is best bias that Sportscenter is so good at instilling in the world, but this is the best, most balanced offense Cornell has had since my freshman year in 2003-2004.  While it hasn't shown up on the scoreboard, the team has seemed to buzz in the offensize end lately, at least in the last 4 games I have gotten to see (Harvard, Dartmouth, Clarkson and tonight).  Am I mis-remembering/oversating this?

SOG were 14-3 in our favor.

[sah67]

Cornell pp...McKenzie for slashing.

[Jordan 04]

Greening!

[sah67]

Greening on the back-door...PPG!  Beautiful tic-tac-toe passing from Gallagher and Riley.

[TimV]

That looked exactly like the power play Harvard killed us with in the ECAC semis in Albany about 3 yrs ago.

[sah67]

SLU out-chancing us so far this period...Scrivens looking strong.

Thanks for that memory, Tim.

Speaking of Harvard, they're down 2-1 early in the 2nd period.  Harvard scored on a 5x3 PP in the 1st, but couldn't get anything going on a 5 minute opportunity.  Harvard announcers have been saying that when UND is down a man, it looks about even out there.

Whose name were they singing the "hey baby" song to?

[sah67]

Cornell going back on the pp.  Interference on J. Keller.  Let's net another one!

[sah67]

Sloppy pp breakout this time around.

[sah67]

B. Nash falls asleep as Riley looks to find him on the point.

A tale of two powerplays.  A beautiful play and quick finish on the last one...we can't even get set up on the current one.

Back to even strength
