4-3 win for Cornell over #15 Maine. So are we happy ...

- killed 10 of 11 penalties
- 3 power play goals in 4 tries
- beat one of two top fifteen teams
- came back from a heartbraking loss  
- finally won a game away from Lynah in 2004-05

... or unhappy
- can manage only one even-strength goal in the consolation
- could've beaten two top fifteen teams
- called for 22, 23, something like that penalties in two games
- didn't make the final against a team (BC) we coulda, maybe shoulda beaten
- failed to get the added TV exposure the final would have brought

So let's say we're ... not unhappy with the tournament?

A road win (even at a neutral site) over Maine is great.  But Maine is kinda lackluster this year.  Sigh.

[Greg Berge]

I'm happy.  They played great, got a PWR-significant NC win, gained experience against two good teams, and proved they could win on the road.  A big confidence-builder to end the NC schedule.  Now they can concentrate on trying to win the conference.

[atb9]

here, here!  I can't wait for Brown and Lynah LEast!

Moulson witn a 3 point night is now 9-8-17 in 12 GP.  Not bad at all.
