Cornell vs. Clarkson, game 1 postgame

I could be wrong but wasn't Pokuluk the one that got stripped of the puck (reminiscent of Jason Dailey's OT giveaway against Yale that one year) that led to the second Clarkson goal.  The first one was definitely Pokuluk's fault as he didn't skate backwards and just kept going forwards with his man, allowing him to get the first shot off.  That pairing in general struggled, but I was surprised to see them get so much ice time.  Krantz and Gleed were both really really good.

Rich, I've defended you several times over the past few months, but you really are approaching "Troll" status for me.  Good lord, please stop being so confrontational.

To set the record straight:

We watched the Moulson shot on two cameras on slow motion (I run one of them). On my camera, it SEEMED as though his shot did not clear the line before 0.0.

However, on the webcast shot, we ran it frame by frame. Moulson took the shot at 0.4, and at 0.1 it was over Leggio's left shoulder and past the line. Should've been the game winner right there. -- but so tough to see as a ref.

Hey, we won so it's all good. Hats off to both goalies.

And WOW, Glover's goal was awesome.

Offering a different opinion from the one shared by all th ecornell posters here makes me confrontational?  You're being a tad close-minded.

You are a Clarkson fan on a Cornell message board.  Deal with it.

He's comic relief.  For God's sake, don't discourage him.

Done, Tuba. Sorry about that....

No prob, thanks for listening to our whining.

Hey, that's what I'm here for.

For God's sake, you need to mature a bit.

I understood that both Pokuluk and O'byrne led to the second goal, mostly O'byrne. But then again I could be wrong.

[Trustnduzt]

O'Byrne had the TO on the second goal. Pokulok just missed the puck on the first when he was trying make follow the screen from his teammate.

I thought it was OB on that second one.  It looked like he tried to split the two wingers on the point and got stripped of the puck.

The "We make ECAC goalie of the week out of a lot of goalies" comment from Bill can be seen as a backhanded slap, but it is true.  I can't remember seeing any amazing saves from Leggio like the one from McKee when he was on his stomach and just tipped the Dodge effort wide and then covered up the wide angle rebound attempt.  Sure, you can say "positioning" but we had a bunch of empty net opps when Leggio was clearly beaten and out of position.  Don't get me wrong, Leggio stood in tough and stay focused but we're not exactly hitting corners with our shots.

Honestly, I wasn't sure whether or not it was a goal live.  I thought it was probably too close to call without replay.  And I am a Big Red fan, but I don't know if Hansen could end the game on something that close.  I don't have a problem with the call (especially now that they won).  Either way, our fans were out of line throwing crap on the ice...it's a bad habit that has to stop.  We don't want to be that kind of crowd.

Also, I'd like to give Hansen a thumbs up for the job he did in OT by not calling any penalties.  There were a few close plays that could have been called, but I like letting the players play and not having the game end on special teams.
