Clarkson @ Cornell 03/10-3/12?/17

[Trotsky]

We don't have enough power in the corners to stay with them physically for 4 periods of hockey a night

Even four might not be enough for these two.

That series was ridiculous.

That really was the year for absurd overtime playoff games, wasn't it?

That series was Leggio's coming out party. He was SUPERB both games, over 100 saves for the weekend, and then spent the next two years being a top goalie in the league.

Hard to believe that was 20 years ago.

Adam's rag predicts Clarkson 2-1. Although there's a good description of the teams, they don't give a reason for us losing.

USCHO, on the other hand, picks us in 3.

So take your pick from "the experts".

[upprdeck]

game one we out shot them 31-16 and out chanced them by a ton.

game 2 up there it was much more even stats wise, but they had a good 2nd period.

both games we came from behind to tie. playing much better as the games went on

we have been the better team 3 of the 6 periods, 2 periods pretty even, one period clarkson too it to us.

will come out flying again in which case  clarkson will be in trouble?

For that second game, I took a friend for his first Lynah game and a Japanese guy I worked with for his first hockey game ever.  Any subsequent games for them must be a letdown.  

I think we had to kill a back-to-back major and minor overlapping the end of regulation into OT.  Lynah went nuts when those ticked off.

Leggio definitely stood on his head.  He had so much work that he was pouring water over his head before nearly every faceoff.

Meh, I remember outlets talking up what was supposedly going to be a tight quarterfinal in 1996...

I have faith in this team, and we should be incrementally healthier to boot.

I think that with Smith gone we'll actually be less healthy than we were before the bye week.

Agree, unless there is some other miraculous recovery, we're back to 5 "normal" defensemen and Rauter moves back again.

Something is wrong with my math.  We have 9 D on the roster.  Bliss, Wedman, and Smith are out.  That leave 6.  Or is Shore hurt too?

I understand Mike might prefer to drop Rauter back and play Tschantz/Bauld rather than play Shore with Rauter up front, but he isn't forced too, right?  Or is there a fourth D injury I don't know about?
