Colgate 2019-20

[Magoo]

Yale 31, Colgate 24, SOG final.
Colgate 2, Yale 1, score final.
Not pretty but we hung on.

We’ll take it Iowa. Lord knows wins have been hard to come by, especially at home. Great to see the freshmen getting involved offensively.

Will Pierre be inside the glass at tomorrow’s game? I hear he’s the guest speaker at the Silver Puck dinner tomorrow night.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

I thought the team played as fast as I have seen them play in a long time (1st period)! I felt they kept the pressure on in the second, with some very close chances and they sat back on their heels a bit in the third. The freshmen are playing a huge part in the early success of the team. I am very happy with the W and hope for the same tomorrow afternoon vs. Bruno. I'm looking forward to hearing what Pierre McGuire has to say at the banquet. Maybe Joe Caprio can share the mic with Pierre tomorrow. Go 'Gate!!

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Again, we struggle at the start of each period.
Their goal was two minutes into the third.
And we probably rely too much on Mitch Benson to save us.
But, he did it again.
We have a real opportunity to sweep at home this weekend.
I hope they come out all fired up to get it done against Brown.
4 p.m. game, following home football game.
Then will attend Silver Puck banquet for my first time.
Good seeing you again, Charlie.

A win is a win, it's not how, but how many at the end of the season. Finally we get a break.

PWR #45 Colgate’s Mitch Benson again in goal this afternoon against PWR #60 Brown Bears.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 17, Brown 5, SOG after one.
Colgate 0, Brown 0, score after one.
Luke Kania, Brown goalie, played very well.
Dominating period, but we need to capitalize (obviously).

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Crazy game... midway through second...
Colgate 29, Brown 12, SOG.
Still scoreless.
3 separate pings off their pipes, too.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 31, Brown 18, SOG after two.
Brown 3, Colgate 0, score after two.
It got even crazier.
Three straight goals on three shots.
Benson replaced by Farrier.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 43, Brown 25, final SOG.
Brown 4, Colgate 1, final score.
Not our shining moment on Silver Puck Saturday.
Your turn, GreenCoat.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

couldn't make it to Silver Puck weekend this year, but (as we know) it's very seldom a question of effort...it's a question of skill and perhaps, looking out 2 years, that will be coming...for the moment please note that over the last 47 games we are averaging slightly more than 1.5 goals/game...BTW I think SOG were 43-25 'Gate, but who cares?

Re: Colgate 2019-20

It blows my mind that we haven’t scored a power play goal since the first game - that’s 9 straight games without a PPG. That has to set some sort of record for futility. And as Greencoat has noted earlier it's cost us wins.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

John McGraw was on-hand to accept his Silver Puck Award from Don Vaughan and Jerry Quill at tonight’s banquet, which was keynoted by Pierre McGuire. Pretty kewl deal. Very well done.

Not anymore. I have no faith in Benson or much in the team, even this early in the season, but I do see progress in recruiting. At least the loss got me a point in the ECAC Pick 'em.

How could the loss get you a point? You mean the win over Yale??
