[Trotsky]

Haiskanen back.  IINM we are at full strength.

Except no newspapers or Snickers. I stupidly forgot my bag, which also has my jersey.

On a better note, the band is going to MSG & Allston.

[Trotsky]

Q has their nice road thread.  Good font.

[Trotsky]

Great first shift by Stienburg.

[Trotsky]

Harvard 2 RPI 0 in the first 3 minutes in Troy.

[Trotsky]

RPI has tied that game up 2-2.

[scoop85]

Not a stellar 1st period by any means, and Galajda had to save our bacon when we forgot there was a game going on. Malinski had a rough go on our only power play, fumbling the puck a few times.

RPI has tied that game up 2-2.

RPI let a late goal spoil the tie, but has looked good against a polished, fast pretty passing Sucks.

Donato's head is well polished too.

[Trotsky]

2-1 Cornell through 2.

good win. some difficulty corralling passes and q seemed to be very disruptive in the offensive and neutral zones. got away with some really bad turnovers but finished just enough chances. i'll take it.

Yeah, certainly our least impressively performance of the season, but as Topher was saying Q does a good job of getting in your grill and disrupting your attack in the neutral zone. But except for when we were shorthanded we did a good job limiting Q's chances, and Galajda was really good when he had to be.

It was great to see that Galajda could deliver a blue chip performance when the team needed it. Not a lot of saves but some were stellar. Now let's not have to see that again. :-)

Who would have thought the team would be 7-0 and Galajda would not have a shutout.

[BearLover]

Galajda was virtually perfect; he had no chance on the Q goal. Q goalie probably should have stopped Locke's goal. And that decided the game. Hard to argue that Q isn't one of the top 4 teams in the ECAC after how good they looked defensively tonight.

Good point. But with our "new" style of play that features our defensemen being more active offensively, we do see more odd man opportunities against us, so shutouts would seemingly be less prevalent.

That would seem to be the case. Brown, Dartmouth and even RPI seem best like the next best, but I'd be surprised if any of them are better than Q.
