your one do-over

[CARDS_rule_the_Burgh]

Something to keep the creative juices flowing here everybody. Pick that one game, from the entire history of games you've watched that if you could play it over again because your team lost on a flukey goal or a back call perhaps. A loss to a big rival, or something from tournement time perhaps??

Stolen from a thread on the DI board. Just want to see what everyone's input is.

For Plattsburgh that's easy:

The loss to Neuman in the 2009 NCAA 1/4's

As a Plattsburgh fan, that one hurt, particularly with the championships being held in Lake Placid, but for me, a do-over - 1990 Game 3 - Stevens Point

Hey, i was perfectly honest about the fact that I was copying off of you. I'm surprised you didn't do this on the DIII boards yourself.

Oh, I probably was going to get around to it sooner or later. I just didn't want to drag this forum into a big pee-pee match over a do over involving a committee.

EC vs. River Falls mini-game 1988 NCAA finals.

[MW4Bucky&SNC]

Re: your one do-over

For SNC there have been several kicks to the jewels in the NCAA Quarterfinals over the last decade or so. Home losses to Point, Middlebury, Superior, and St. Thomas all hurt. All four of those teams got to the title game with Middlebury and Superior winning it those years. Middlebury was a little better than SNC that year, but SNC was every bit as good as Superior even with a goalie who was fighting every puck, and better than both St. Thomas and Point (although Gorman in net was the great equalizer).

Maybe I feel like facing painful memories today or something because while these are all excellent candidates, none of the four are my choice for the do-over. The 03-04 National Championship game vs Middlebury would be the one. To take a shutout into OT and still lose hurts. To look back and know all you needed to do was convert on one of your first 27 SOGs for a National Title is a tough pill to swallow.

Re: your one do-over

Comes down to a choice between these two:

Fri Mar 19, 2004 vs Middlebury 2- 3 L 2OT

Sat Mar 16, 2002 vs Wis-Superior 2- 3 L OT

I'll go with March 16th, because of the timing.

Trinity Bantams 4, Geneseo Ice Knights 0

Not only would I like to go back and have my field reporter equipment work that night, if you read the recap you can see just how close the game was despite the final score. The final game for a lot of the guys that helped bring Geneseo hockey out of the cellar, it'd be great to have that one back.

Re: your one do-over

This was an easy one .....with a total of 4 losses to consider I'd like to "do-over" the November 1,2008 4-2 loss to the eventual National Champions.....

[Hammer]

Re: your one do-over

That was a weird game. It was like something wasn't right on the ice. I could never put my finger on it. I didn't give it much thought after that because I didn't see it again the rest of the season.

Re: your one do-over

For Elmira...

2006 NCAA Semifinal against Middlebury

Lost 2-1....Led 1-0 for a little while.

Best chance for an Elmira National Championship since Spinelli was here.

The recap mentions Stephens' shot from the point in the second period. I remember the expression on his face after that, heartbreaking. Sure would be nice to see the team get back to NCAA level.
