Cornell 5 Clarkson 0 postgame thread

[billhoward]

Good points:

Incredible special teams - 3 PPG, 2 SHG
157 minutes of scoreless defense by Cornell (two straight vs. Clarkson, scoreless defense vs. SLU since 5:32 of second period plus 2 minutes of OT)
Balanced scoring
Didn't fall prey to Clarkson chippiness
McKee breaks Dryden's shutouts record
Moulson doesn't score but he sets up the others
Iggulden a maniac on man-short
[edit]Ari picks the final score exactly http://www.elynah.com/?editorial&id=30

Could be better:

Sat back just a little in the third period
No even strength scoring offense

What a great game to listen to. The announcing team from Potsdam is excellent and the Clarkson audio feed is the best streaming audio of a sportscast I've ever experienced.

I'm content to have the team sit back a bit with a 5-0 lead going into the third. No need to steal bases with a big lead in the 9th inning. And I'm not too concerned with the lack of 5x5 scoring: there wasn't much 5x5 skating.

I think Clarkson seriously threatened to score maybe twice all game and McKee came up big when they did. Great game on both sides of the ice for the whole team.

Just got back from the game.  I must say the Iggy (5th?) was one of the nicest goals I've seen this year.

probably the dirtiest team in the country -- glad to see we killed them while lynah was rockin'. can't wait for tomorrow night.

-I thought the team played one of its best games in recent weeks.  Yes, they sat back in the third period and Clarkson brought it a bit more than they had been, but with a 5 goal lead and Clarkson cleary tying to bait any Cornell player into a fight, I am ok with that.
-Iggulden continues to play out of his mind.  He is a force everytime he sets foot on the ice (never thought I would say that:-) )
-Cam really wanted to score a goal, he was trying to pot one the entire night.
-Much like the Union game a few weeks ago, Clarkson's D played out very far on the penalty kill, leaving not much room at the point.  This seemed to throw us off for the first few pp, but we figured out how to get around it soon enough.  
-I have seen Clarkson play countless times and every time I see them I swear they play dirtier and dirtier.  They were clearly trying to injure our players and always bitched to the ref when caught.  Here's hoping no one gets hurt tomorrow night.  LGR!!!

And also that no one is baited into anything that gets him DQ'd from the next game. :-(

Was very happy with how they played tonight.  Sat back a bit in the third period though.  Dominated exactly how I expected them to.  Now it's time to do what they couldn't do last year.

McKee's stats (1.23 GAA, 94.5% save %, 9 shutouts) after yet another shutout are remarkably close to Lenny's from 02-03 (1.20 GAA, 94.0% save %, 9 shutouts).

I would have been embarrassed if we had scored 10 goals like Michigan tonight.  It seems like we've sat on leads quite a bit this year.

Excellent game by our guys. Clarkson is so ridiculously dirty that I don't even know what to say. I do not understand what kind of coach lets his team be so undisciplined.

Amen. I won't comment on Roll.

What happened at the end of the game? No Lynah salute. No shaking of hands.

[RichS]

Ok, I see all you guys trashing Clarkson for being dirty and now ripping Roll.  So please tell me what happened since I missed the game.
