We didn't play terribly tonight. Probably deserved better than an L.

I mean, it's their senior night. All things being considered, makes sense they'd work their tails off for this one. We seem to have trouble after highly emotional games too. Wouldn't be surprised if the Red were coming off the emotional high and exhausted too.

That being said, this was a DEEPLY frustrating game to watch, especially because most of their goals were either Absolute Fluke Plays or Absolute Defensive Breakdowns. Ringing the posts ane crossbars doesn't help, either.

Especially given where we're hanging in the balance right now, simply can't be coughing up points like this. Really, really need a sweep next weekend. Both SLU and Clarkson are Not Good, but again, we seem to have trouble getting 6 on those weekends.

Anyways. I'm gonna go scream into a paper bag for a few minutes, then see what other hockey is on. I hate being emotionally invested in teams. This sucks.

We have KWD at home. DeSantis is a D, so is DiGiulian...

Dear god Devlin really helps the depth of this team.
Digulian is a forward
Starts with a D.

That blew. And course Clarkson and Saint Lawrence are both on a three game win streak coming into town so we'll have our hands full next weekend. I really hate losing to bad teams.

At least we fucked Q up, so it's not as bad as it otherwise could've been.

Ok to be more specific I want the
Kraft
Walsh
Digulian line back
I want Major back on Walsh's wing tbh. Feels like he plays too much heroball on the third.

Y'know I'm remembering we shoved it in Pecknold's stupid face yesterday and I'm feeling a lot better.

Have been dealing with stomach sickness all day (not egg related this time, promise) so I've been a little crabby to say the least. I'll probably sleep it off. Just frustrated at the world and giving up "easy" points.

Not ideal, but Princeton's been pretty decent this year and great at home. Plus they got a big goal on a one in a million bounce. It happens.

Let's go get 'em next week.

Be thankful that you're not a Seattle Mariners fan....

I tried being a Mariners fan, fun fact.

Turns out I despise baseball too much to actually care about a team. It's DREADFULLY boring. Similar to soccer and basketball, sorry to say.

Banana ball, on the other hand, is great. And I chose the right team there, the Party Animals :)

Not sure I agree. Watching at home is usually better than being there for this sort of observation so I could be wrong but at the rink it felt like our energy was meh and we could establish little effective zone time. Lots of east west hero puck. Natural result is breakaways the other way.  way.

I'm with you on this

Possible trap game syndrome also and Princeton is a decent to good team at home on senior night with Ben behind the bench so not the worst loss big picture. Dont buy the tired argument.  I'm old so I'm tired. They're young.
