Looking much better in this period than the last.

I'll take points in Hamden. Now let's win the derpfest.

i missed the first two periods but that third period was pretty great tbh. real signs of life. a lot of good chances and a truly gorgeous volley from desantis to tie it up. I'm not sure if Shane had a save in the last 10 minutes.

Bah. Never really tried to use the energy advantage and have a muscle-match in the crease. Just more shots from the blue line looking for deflections.

kind of wild that the goalies are from manhattan beach and calabassas

NCAA players aren’t accurate enough w shooting and passing to pull it off. NHL was fun at first till they just played possession

No.

I’d love to have the equivalent of Dan Dufresne, Greg Hornby, and Cam Abbott sent out one game just level everyone during the OT, point be damned.

Huh. This is new. Are they saying he stopped and nullified the attempt?

A review of a shootout goal: can it get any worse?

He pulled that backwards a bit no? I think that’s what they’re looking at and not if it went in

A loooong review.

Has Suda missed a shootout attempt yet?

5 point of 6, I am well pleased.

Five out of six point for the weekend!

Maybe I'm weird, but I hate 3x3 OT more than the shootout. 3x3 plus sudden death equals possession focus and little attacking.

5 ECAC points on the road. That's not bad. Q has a good team and they played hard.

I hope Penney can return before Lake Placid.

Which may be why Shane was in goal tonight. The odds of a shootout were pretty decent. For the first 60 minutes, maybe it didn't matter who started. But Shane was more likely to get us the extra point at the end.

Good weekend, I’m very proud of that effort. On to Harvard, lynah should be hopping.

20th in the pairwise right now, keep grinding.

Guys. I love you, but Shane wasn’t in tonight to start a goalie tandem or because he’s better in shootouts. He was in because the coaching staff thinks he gives the team the best chance to win. I think that’s clear at this point.

Good effort this weekend, gives me some optimism. The best part was that Shane was very good (I didn’t watch, but that seems to be the consensus). It’s too bad we’re in this position, but we have outs to win the ECAC if we keep on this trajectory and get the injured players back.

It was his best game of the season. The rest did him good.

On to next weekend; 2 teams with more conference points than we.

Did the announcers give an explanation for the video review on Quinnipiac's goal in the shootout? Being there in person, we were told nothing.

They didn’t really know. They were likely checking that he maintained a forward motion and didn’t get a “second chance” off of Shane’s pad or something. Ref was kind of screened out.

the puck also took a weird path where it looked like Shane may have swept it off the line with his glove hand into his own body and it bounced back into the goal

The announcers talked about "maintaining momentum." I don't know if that actually in the letter of the rule. But I guess you can't just come to a full stop. It's like a balk.

No penalty. Our timeout is gone.

Never seems to work for us. Always seems to work for our opponents.

Agree. Wish they wouldn't do that, especially early in the game. Seems like if a major wasn't called on the ice the odds are against a successful challenge and you lose BOTH your time out and opportunity to challenge on a critical goal/no goal play late in the game.

Over the years, I have consistently said that I don't enjoy going to games at Q, due to many factors that I won't list here. But in all fairness, last night's game was the most enjoyable experience I've had at Q since they opened their arena.
Since Q is not back from break, their pep band was not there. But there was a smaller-than-usual Cornell Alumni pep band at the game. In contrast to last weekend at Sacred Heart, especially last Friday night, the Cornell pep band was given ample time to play. Frequently during play stoppages there would be an announcement or a little music, and then the announcer would introduce the Cornell pep band to play a song. I give Q credit for not insisting on playing ear-blasting piped-in music at every opportunity, as was the case last weekend at Sacred Heart.
The arena was also surprisingly empty. Earlier in the week, Q ran a "hockey blast" sale, selling tickets for the weekend games against Colgate and Cornell for half price at $15 apiece.
The smaller crowd also made it easier to leave the arena afterwards, something which in the past has sometimes taken as much as 20 minutes. It was nice to be able to hear "Let's Go Red" chants from the pep band and a small group of Cornell fans behind the Cornell bench. The only "spontaneous" cheering for Q came when the cheerleaders would infrequently start a "Let's Go Bobcats" chant, which no one else in the arena chimed in on.

The shoot-out follows the penalty shot procedure (rule 25.2) which says, among other things, this:

"Once the player taking the shot has touched the
puck, it must be kept in motion toward the opponent’s goal line. When
the puck is shot, the play shall be considered complete. A goal cannot be
scored on a rebound of any kind, and any time the puck crosses the goal
line the shot shall be considered complete."

I think the announcers were right. When the shooter got near the crease, he was headed to his left but then rolled the puck across to his right side. If the puck had gone backward (away from the goal line), the shot would not have counted. And it looked pretty close, but there was not, as they say, "indisputable video evidence" to overturn the goal call.

Agree. Two nights at SHU made Q seem enjoyable. I do think they've toned it down a bit over the years too. With the notable exception of the new deafening train whistle thing.

The traffic was aided by low attendance and many beating the traffic before the 3x3, more before the shootout, and more still during the review.

The full feed of the game was available on demand when I went to watch it Sunday. It’s disappointing that as the cost of the package rises the effectiveness of it has not improved. I’m still frustrated that the Dartmouth game never made it to the on demand queue.

It was a nice weekend to start to right the ship. They have put themselves in a good position to start leapfrogging teams in front of them. Harvard this weekend and Clarkson the next.

At the volume of events that ESPN+ is now streaming I don't know how we expect them to archive much to watch for very long. 100s of events a day adds up

and as for cost. we get to watch events for pennies so I dont know why expect white glove service.
