    I wasn't watching with that level of detail so you may be correct.

      I only listened to the third because this ISP is a POS when it comes to Youtube and evenings.

          Kasdorf was awesome last night. Especially impressed by his rebound control. Was really glad to see John Rogic play so well, he was flying last night (cue the youtube RB). With regard to Kasdorf playing, I don't think SA will ever go down the Lange/York road again. Congrats to Coach and the boys for getting off the snide.

            Rogic always seems to be flying-but last night he was a bit more under control (albeit missing on a breakaway). But as is being shown more and more-being on a line with JL can get you some extra chances. The kid just has something that is hard to quantify. He finds people on the ice, he seems to make the ice more open and he is not afraid to go into the offensive zone and do a little work. I know last year did not show it-for whatever reasons-but as I had been hoping for 2 years before he came-he really will be something special for us.

              Great point Doc. Absolutely. Kasdorf better be in net tomorrow, or I'm gonna drive down and meet SA at the locker room door at the 1st intermission. But to your point, I was cranky this week and wanted some action -- and that is what we got from SA and the staff. Hats off to them for having the boys ready to rock. Now I wanna see it again tomorrow. (Yes, I am greedy)
              Expecting a totally different game today. Ovioudsly Brown is not Yale. They will clog up in front of the net and disrupt in front of ours. This one will be more physical. My biggest concern is as usual-special teams. We may see a ton of crap called early to set the tone. We need to win that battle, and win it early in the game. Although we played a very strong 60 minutes last night-I would suspect SA will make some changes for today-if only because of the shortened rest time with the early start. This kindof thing usually affects the visiting team more as they are on the road with an entirely different schedule than usual. The guys at home at least get to sleep in their own beds and have their routine slightly less interrupted.

On a different night they can lose you a game. On the wrong night they can end your season. If there were a game to bench someone in, tomorrow is probably the one. I personally would have sat him down tonight mid game. A large lead gives you the flexibility to do things like that, and there is something to be said for 'punishment' being administered directly after the offense when you're doing so to send a message to someone (or a whole team).
                Good points. Mistakes on the ice, giveaways, etc should be cause for some attention from the coach. But that late hit penalty? That was a message that had to be delivered. They were taking some hard shots at our smaller guys in a game that was decided. Someone had to end that right there. And someone had to say-"listen, you guys are coming to Troy later this year-and i am going to be there!" Now who better to make that statement than a 6'5" 255 pound flaming haired young man with a bit of an edge to him? Sometimes hockey can be a little bit like a bar fight. And if i am ever in a bar fight-I want Luke along side me anytime.

                      I would think, if you would really want to use special teams on the PP, use Bailen as a decoy and have Laliberté take the shot. You have a big body in Tinordi for the screen.

                          I'm not sure if I was watching a different game but at least the 1st 2 PP's, maybe 3, we had our "A" PP unit on the ice. After the usual big goose egg in those attempts with minimal shots on goal I started to see SA switch it up and run the lines. I also noticed #7 was not getting any ice time after the 1st period so I wonder if he re-injured himself. So I am sure we will see a replacement for him tonight but this is only speculation, I have no inside information or anything saying he is injured but just noticed he was not seeing the ice time and am figuring that is why.

                          Other than this I would say we played a pretty solid game against a good team. However, this is a team that likes to play our style of hockey, in my eyes. Tonight will be back to a defensive type team who, as some have mentioned, clogs up the neutral zone protects the front of their net. We still have large improvement, IMO, doing this with our D-corps. Kasdorf better be in goal tonight otherwise our great coach really should have his head examined. This kid from what I have seen is the real deal. In the first couple games I thought he gave up some easy rebounds but as everyone could see last night he was like a vacuum cleaner. I just hope our offense did not put too many on the board and saved some for tonight. LET's GO RED!!

                          Do not forget game time is 4pm today!!

                              There have been a lot of great comments about the teams play last night, and rightfully so. But I can't believe that nobody has mentioned the play of the Zalewski line. The freshmen were outstanding and give us a line that could put up a ton of points in the next three and half years. Also, the are the most exciting line to watch.

                                Wow!!! good job but they have to get that power play going.
                                I see that Seth is sticking with Kasdorf. That is a good move.
                                They haven't scored 6 goals since....... 2010.
                                6 goals I bet the boys had fun last night. They really have to play hard tonight, no letup.
