St. Lawrence 0 @ Cornell 1, Final

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

We're getting sloppy.  A lot of SLU possession this period.

Yikes...Scali and Seminoff both down on the ice next to each other after blocking shots.

Did the kids just do the 'you can't score' cheer in the third period when we are only ahead 1-0?

Are they incorrect?

The howl of the wolf movie, starring the faithful?

[mnagowski]

Hardly, but I always thought that cheer was reserved for games that weren't closely fought with a one goal differential between the teams.

Petizian stops Jillson's slapper on a 2-on-1 with Seminoff.

What do you, do you want to tempt the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing?!

[sah67]

Annnnd another untimely penalty by B. Nash.

[mnagowski]

SLU powerplay.

I don't see a problem with it.  There's 5 minutes left and they haven't scored.  If they score and tie it, so be it.  The crowd shouldn't have to sit on their hands or refrain from anti-SLUt simply because the game is close.  I'm sure the SLUt goalie has been called a sieve plenty of times tonight. Doubt anyone takes issue with that.

Man, now that reminds me of the ill-fated ECAC playoff series against Clarkson in 2004.  We were leading them either 5-0 or 4-0 in game one, down to the last few minutes, and a guy down my row said:

"Hey, you know which cheer we haven't gotten to do in awhile?  It's Friday night, and you can't--"

*red light goes off*

"Aaaaaargh!"

And we know how the story of that series ends...

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Big save by Scrivens.

[mnagowski]

SLU to get a 5 on 3.
