ECAC QF Game 3: Cornell 4 Union 2

[andyw2100]

Somebody else please do the game threads from now on.  I have a shitty record.  :-/

Not promising to start all of them, but if this works, I'll start the next one.

It worked.

Yes it did. Hence this thread.

having played union 4 times.. 4-0, 4-1, 2-3. 4-0

5t time this yr really controlled them 4 times.. have to do it one more,

got sloppy 2-3 times last night and it could have led to a couple for Union, which is how they won Friday.

we need to put home a few more chances, even last night we turned a 7-2 type game into 2-0 until late,

In post game interviews the Union coach said he hopes the chippiness continues today.  Typical.::rolleyes::

What a shocker...

It was clearly their intention to lure us into exchanges to get to 4-on-4 and to remove some of our better players.  Mitch had people hacking him all night while Cam was wearing guys inside his sweater.

I mean, I remember a certain team in red who used to do that when they were overmatched, so let's not get too holier than thou.  It's kinda fun to be the team whose rhythm is the bigger threat, now.

I'm just annoyed at the matching minors we picked up for getting punched.

That was one of those "just clear the ice to stop the bullshit" things that refs do when they've had enough.  They can read the on ice situation better than I can, so I guess they know what they're doing.  It does seem unfair, though.

As chippy as UC was being Malott has his moments, too.  I dunno if they were all retaliatory.  While I appreciate Mitch throwing himself into situations to stick up for his guys and be captainy I don't want to see him in the box and I'm always terrified there will be a freak fall or something.

BTW, anybody else think that Beau disappeared last night?  I don't know if I was being inattentive or he was being contained brilliantly by Union, but I didn't see him doing much at all.

My god, Barron, though!  I hope the Rangers didn't have a scout at last night's game, cuz he'd have picked up the phone and told Quinn "he's ready."

That was one of the most complete games I've seen a Cornellian play since Greening and Riley.

the list of guys not worth swapping out for vidmar is not that long but i do like having mullin on the ice

Yeah, I really wondered about the wisdom of using one of their best guys as a suicide bomber.  Emelifeonwu's on that roster for a reason.

Except when AMegaPhune got the minor and the misconduct with Leahy just getting the 10.

[Trotsky]

Same lineups as last night.
