For the people out east...what do you think Adrian's chances are with Plattsburgh tomorrow. How did they compare?
Very impressed with Adrian. They have a couple of absolute studs. Big team that can play different styles I feel. They can muck it up but they can also play a speed game. They had a couple of very impressive goals that left Crawford no chance.
10, 18, 19, 25 and the goalie caught my eye all night. I think Adrian will give Plattsburgh a run tomorrow if they didn't blow everything today.
Elmira lost A LOT from last year's squad and it showed. They've got a lot of young faces in big roles up and down the lineup. They started out pretty well in the second period after getting completely dominated in the first period. However, Adrian got the 3rd goal for the back breaker and then the fourth followed right after to put it away for good.
Norwich didn't play it's best game and was 17 seconds from going to OT with the two-time defending champs. Found a way to hang in it. Plattsburgh still appears to be the team to beat unless Adrian knocks them off tomorrow.

Adrian was awesome this afternoon; power, speed and impressive goal tending . I think the game with Plattsburgh should be great. Hate to say this, but refs may be a big factor. Today's refs in both games really allowed the teams to go at each other. The one difference I saw in Adrian and Plattsburgh this afternoon was on the power play. Plattsburgh was able to totally control play in the Norwich zone with the extra attacker. Adrian, a team with close to 30% success on the power play last season, just did not control the puck and get their power play working against Elmira.
