Nobody wants to play low. That last PP, it seemed like the forwards were allergic to being near the crease.

Dust off the Brenden Locke bat signal.

The coaching staff waits way too long to pull the goalie. Two full minutes too late.

It's not like we do much with an extra attacker. Everyone sits either at the blue line or the half wall.

Looking forward to seeing this team get manhandled by uconn and harvard

Quote from: TrotskyBerard becoming invisible is such a difference from the first half of last year.

Berard is mostly invisible. Malinski is just not the same player he has ever been. He's awful, not hustling, and can't get the puck through traffic.

I'm glad we began to wake up at the end. We can't spot a team two easy goals like we did.

I'm waiting to see who the leaders are here. It's early going, but the guys I expect to take charge aren't. If anything, Rego is getting a lot of involvement on both ends, not many others. It's early, but let's see who steps up.

Early in the year, we lose a winnable game, we say we'll make it up down the stretch. Come March, we didn't and we find it's the difference between being seeded in the 2-3 bracket (versus say Harvard if Q turns out to be the best team in the RS) instead being the 4-seed in the 1-4 bracket (or worse, 5-8) and wind up in the play-Quinnipiac-Friday bracket assuming it's Q not Harvard that's the team to beat. If we go to Placid, I'd like to see Cornell playing both nights.

Last night was a listless, uninspired performance. As others have highlighted, most of our supposed top guys are not performing to expectations. Unless that turns around we are poised for a disappointing season.

That being said we have yet to play on home ice and we have plenty of time to right the ship. But it must start next weekend with two eminently winnable games at home. I'm interested to see our quality of play as much as the results.

Truth!!   That's exactly how I felt as I watched the game.

I thought we looked pretty good for long stretches, but we couldn't quite put the puck in the net.

It's similar to last gear, where we get outmuscled down low. We don't score the classic Cornell goals where there's a pile of bodies in front of the net. That's okay if it's not who we are, but we gotta figure out who we are.

Shane's gotta get it going, too. But I think we've looked competitive all season except that first period at Q.

I though it was a really good amount of effort..  The main issue is the ability to generate better shots , but the compete level was really high.  figure out the PP and much of how the season has played out would change.
