Cornell v. Clarkson Game 2

LGR!!!! any news of interest for tonights game?

So do we get to carry over the extra goal from yesterday and start with a 1-0 lead?

I'll be looking for two things as far as the lineup goes. First, I would be surprised if Glover played so I'm interested to see if it is Salmela or Davenport who gets the nod in his place. Salmela really impressed me early in the season, but he has struggled badly over the last month. Davenport has played very little, but I liked him during the CD weekend and he is more of a replacement for Glover than Salmela is in that he is much more similar of a player. Second, I'm wondering if Schafer leaves Scott on the top line and Carefoot on the fourth line as they finished last night. Scott was the team's best player last night and really seemed to light a fire under that top line when he was moved there.
I expect O'Byrne and Pokuluk to play a lot better tonight now that they have gotten that one game under their belts. Really interested to see how Clarkson comes out tonight, but if Cornell does their job, I honestly don't think it will matter.

The CSTV cast kicks in atypically early and we can hear Roll; I missed Schafer -- did anybody hear him?

No, I missed Schafer, too.

Roll was pretty complimentary of Cornell and seemed very frank - not trying to hide behind cliches.

I have finally subscribed to All-Access. Let's hope it's worth it.

Speaking of which, did the video just die?

I had the radio playing but was half paying attention--the only bit I caught was when Jason asked Schafer whether the team was feeling 100% after such a long game. Schafer essentially said the players prided themselves on being well-conditioned, but there's really no way to tell until game time.

Yes, but it's back now.

Apparently Clarkson has at least two injuries from last night -- one F and one D. I missed both names, though.

Bitz to the box for roughing.

PP now.

Cam Abbott held back from making a 2 on 1, but then draws a penalty on a later offensive attack.

CU PP now. 4x4 for 22 seconds.

Sounded like dodge had a good chance there. 2 mins into the period, 1 min left on PK.

NOW it is a PP

another Clarkson penalty.

BITZ!!!!

Bitz PPg!

Anyone else having trouble signing on to the all acess acount. the video will not come up? help

Don't know if this is ordinary done, but thanks for the replays.

Replay! Yes!

My video is great, but the audio is "sputtering". I'm using the Clarkson audio now which is about 1 minute behind the video. Makes for an interesting game

Great focus on Bitz's part, he was literally grabbed around the neck and he still stuffed that puck behind Leggio.

Penalty on Abbott, PK coming.

RichS is wetting his pants, Abbott to the box for interference on the faceoff.

I assume that everyone on the web is finding Clarkson's audio static-y. True?

Give it time. By the end of the game it'll probably be 2+ minutes of gametime, and maybe 3-4 minutes of real time, behind. I saw the Sawada post on eLynah long before I heard the call last night.

also running on a slight delay it seems

Don't bother trying to bait him. He is probably at the game.

Wetting his pants.

Yep.

PK'ed.

Getting a little chippy in the first.

PP time.

Clarkson announcers just said 1-0 Sucks over SLUt (over the commercial).

Wetting his pants.

Haha. I wouldn't try to bait him if I knew he was here

Cornell to another PP

Harvard and Yale up 1-0. Q up 2-1

PP over.

Col 2 Q 2 according to Clarkson guys

What was that?

6:30 left in the first, and McKee lets in a slap shot from center ice.

Oh no.

Mind in the game, Dave.

Maybe it was strategy. He's trying to lure Clarkson into taking all their shots from center ice.

And now Mugford leaves his feet to deliver a check and heads to the box.

USCHO put is on the cover again. That's the problem.

Dodge to the box. Time to make up some ground.

Weller to the box.

Another PP ahead...

Just logged on...what is the score? Clarkson 1 Cornell 0?

101 PIMs, one of those goons they recruit.

1-1

Sounds like Pelle took a penalty after time expired in the 1st. Still 1-0, but SLUt will start the 2nd on PP.

Quiet in Lynah right now.

Leggio is looking quite good, better than last night so far.

Hopefully Cornell can put some more goals in

End of 1 after McKee somehow manages to turn aside a shot from the Red Line.

Are the SOG really 22-3 Cornell as listed on gametracker?

Hey folks ,,, nice that we were able to tie it up after that silly goal. Does anyone know why the scores no longer post in the post-titles as they used to?

What shots? The announcers are saying "Leggio" more than they say "puck." I don't think Clarkson has crossed the red line yet and they still have a friggin' goal.

After the game I expect someone to argue that it wasn't actually a soft goal. That person will be either Ari or RichS.

Edited to add: Whatever happened last night, tonight it sounds like Leggio is making Leggio the goalie of the week because the Clarkson defense took the bus back to Potsdam last night.

Yes, it really was like that. Amazing. Anybody else hold their breath when Brekelmans shot from half court with 2 seconds to go?

SLUt just scored on the PP.

Killer
SLUt just scored on the PP.

Sounds like our game. Harvard outshooting SLU 17-5, but the Saints are still tied.

Does anyone know why the scores no longer post in the post-titles as they used to?

The thread initiator (Tim) is the only person who can edit the thread title. I used to starts the threads and update the score, but after the North Country (nearly) Lost Weekend, I retired.

In the future, I'd really like to see Greg doing it again. I am a twinge superstitious, but damn if having a good thread title and start page with scoring information isn't useful.

Couldn't make it all out, but when Pelle took his penalty at 20:00, the Harvard announcers said something about a coach who thinks that if a player takes a penalty like that at the end of a period, he should spend the intermission in the penalty box to think about it. They seemed to agree that Pelle probably deserved that fate.

Bitz to the box. The game is on a loop.

Guthrie to the box for interference, CU to the PP

Nice PP for Clarkson. Cornell a bit lucky to kill it.

SLUt just put in #2

Glover to the box.

2-1 Clarkson

Krantz giveaway.

This has been a Clarkson period so far. Come on, Red!

Brutal giveway by Krantz, and McKee not clutch on that shot (not that it was a real softie, mind you, but we would sure like to see him make a big save there). I did not see the first period tonight, but Clarkson clearly has stepped up its play this period, and Cornell is just flat right now.

Definitely a squeamish feeling right now; it happens so often that you have a team under your thumb but let them squirm free and it comes back to bite you. We have to regroup and reassert ourselves.

Another Krantz turnover almost leads to a great scoring chance

Krantz is really awful. Always has been.

Scott draws a Penalty.

Scott molested all the way on his rush, Cornell headed to the PP.

Great chance here...

Abbott passes up a great shot, no shot on goal.

It looks like Leggio might be in their heads

Some great wheels by Pegoraro sets up a great chance. I think we will miss him next year more than we know.

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SCOTT!!!!

Scott!!

That was an amazing goal

Just saw the replay. Beautiful diving goal.

What an amazing effort on Scott's part to get through a hook, hold, and a tackle to sweep that puck in.

And now Clarkson hits somebody after the whistle and Cornell heads on a PP.

The replay showed just how remarkable that goal was. Topher was tied up, and on the way down he was somehow able to backand it past Leggio.

Now PP for Cornell. Let's take control!

End of 2 at Bright, SLU 2, Harvard 1

35 seconds left in the 2nd, FO in Cornell zone.

Well done topher.

'Gate - 4, QU - 3, end 2nd.

Mackey (?) ties it at 0:59 of the 3rd.

End of 2nd a couple minutes ago

I leave the room for a minute and the Big Red tie the game!

Let me know when you think I should leave again.

Now. Come back in mid-April

Note to Clarkson band: Never play Sing Sing again. Ever.

You can actually hear a chant of "Let's go Harvard" over the radio. The 6 fans must be near the announcers.

3rd is underway.

Goaltender Interference to the "non" Goon Weller, and Cornell to the PP.

Rebound hit the post...

What a wild sequence. Bonehead icing by Pokoluk leads to scary Clk flurry. McKee gets knocked down leading to Clk. penalty. We hold great possession time on delayed penalty and have a few great chances. Hit post on PP, now Barlow takes penalty.

PP over, Clarkson to the PP.

McKee big save on Dodge, 20 secs left on CCT PP

Dartmouth 3-1
Colgate 5-3

At least since the second period (I didn't see the first) our passes our much less crisp than last night.

5x3 for CU coming up.

Leggio makes a bunch of saves on a PP flurry, CU headed to a 5X3 for 49 seconds.
