Cornell vs. Clarkson, game 1 postgame

[RichH]

[quote Omie]RichS,

What did Clarkson do well besides Leggio having 50 saves? The second Clarkson goal was clearly a misstep by two Cornell defensemen. So we are all waiting to hear what Clarkson did so exceptionally well that we should recognize, besides those 50 saves by Leggio that we said were awesome and are due to a combination of his goaltending skills AND the fact that Cornell shoots a lot but doesn't come through with the goal.[/quote]

That's a good question, Omie.  Although that's a few more words than I would've used...

[Rich S]

Hang on.  I'm busy helping Greg with the hunt for Bill's praise of Clarkson.  :-}

Really, give me a few minutes and I'll respond, I've got a few things on my plate right now.

Don't tell me that you're waiting this long to hear my opinion!

[quote Rich S][quote DeltaOne81][Q]Bill's review was highly respectful of Clarkson.

Great game by both teams tonight.[/Q]

Guess who said those?

Seriously, you can't come on here expecting out and out praise of Clarkson. Just like there's never going to be out-and-out praise of Cornell on the roundtable. At least not until we're all on the same team in the NCAAs.

Please change your standards for behavior to what you would hold you and your fellow Clarkson fans to in reverse on your board. Or just don't come here.[/quote]

"Leggio deserves credit for making 50 saves. We make ECAC goalie of the week out of a lot of goalies."


The above was the only comment in Bill's review that I commented on.  Hardly "highly respectful."

Greg made the other statement, right?  Or was it John.  Fine.

I don't expect out and out praise for the opponent here or on any forum.  But to not recognize the oponent's efforts in a game that went to 2 OTs is taking a very narrow view.  The implication is that cornell had to go to 2 OTs only because of their own occasional poor play.  That's silly.

Please don't lecture me about my behavior here.  Clean up your own house first.  When inaccurate or narrow-minded statements are made, I'll call you on it.  If you want to throw stones at me, be prepared to catch a few coming back.

If you want to whine about that, then you're dishing it out but are unable to take it as I have said before.[/quote]

For someone who wasn't at the game, and didn't even see the video, you're being a tad cocky. You must have run up quite a tab with Ms. Cleo to get this stunning perspective. Not trying to be a troll but seriously... you weren't there and didn't watch the video feed so please try and believe those of us who were there.

I was right there for four out of seven goals tonight (yay for section G) I'll say that Clarkson played a good game and capitalized on our two big mistakes. By the second part of the first OT, however, they were mainly icing the puck every chance they got and didn't really have many chances. Lots of cross ice feeds to a mystery 6th skater who was invisible to the rest of us (when they actually managed to get something set up) but not many "ohshitohshit" moments.

Are you coming on to me, Rich?  I don't recall us being related.[/quote]

Whatever made your psychoanalytic mind ::rolleyes::  think of that?

You may have me confused with an inbred "Chicken counting" major classmate of yours.  :-D

I'm glad that's what was on your plate, rather than talking hockey.

What did you think of the game?

Just got back from a fund raiser, see you boys pulled out the first one. Too late for me to read all the threads, sysnopsis for me is always shots on goal, 50ish-30ish it appears you carried the game. if so, nicely done.  2ot's say my boys hung tough.
Ok, so tomorrow, time permitting, I will try ruloffs for a pregame beer and burger, after the game the chapter house for post game festivites ....and as delta was kind enough to provide the menu for the hot truck, will be there afer hours for sure.  Appreciate everyone's tips on my first trip....see ya up there!

BTW I will be ready to stick it to you bastards tomorrow! :-D

Cheers!
Drew

Rich, if you're still up, would you remember to put out the cat and turn off the lights? I've got an early start for Ithaca. Hope you can make it. If you decide to drive up Sunday, the rink might be dark.

Rich(S) - see?  This is how it's done.  Drew calls us bastards to our face, and only makes me want to buy him a beer all the more (keep dreaming - I'm in LA :-( ), while even your sincere compliments (and I think I have read a few from you over the years) just piss me off.

You are truly a twisted human being.  I really hope your life is not as empty as you make it appear here.

[Rich S]

We have a dog, no cats allowed here.

Can't make it Sunday in any case.  Aren't you being a bit smug with the "dark rink" comment?  No lessson learned from '04?  :-D

Uh oh...Now I've done it again...here comes the wrath of the almighty ones.

Excellent.  What did you think of the game?

[Rich S]

Robb,

Hey we all have different personalities and styles, what else can I say.  Drew's works for him and that's cool.

Chalk mine up to having been a "Billy Smith type" of goalie I guess...loved to battle!

If you're in LA, I'd say you're the "twisted" one.  I traveled out there a lot on biz back in the 90s and met and worked with plenty of entertainment industry types.  'nuff said.

Ok "bastard"....where's my beer?  I'm due for a West Coast trip.  :-}
