Hopefully they saved some goals for tonight. Clarkson is still battling for a top 4 finish and will be extremely hungry on their home ice, while we still have a chance to get back to 2nd. We're still very thin defensively so it will be a much tougher match up. The D needs hunker down and limit Clarkson's chances. Garteig needs to have another great effort as he may have to make up for defensive miscues. Most importantly, we need to stay out of the box. The offense needs to play with the same confidence they showed last night. Peca is smoking right now and that should inspire the rest of the guys. With JST back in the lineup we should have 2 solid lines and a 3rd that can make some noise. Let's end the regular season on a good note.
Go Q!
Boy, the Larries should did look, err, irrelevant tonight![]()
Getting back to last night's game. One thing I loved to see is Matthew Peca is starting to heat up just at the right time.
That would be correct, but I think Yale is going to have their hands full with Harvard (or at least one can hopeIf I have figured this out correctly, and the higher seeds win in the first round in the ECAC playoffs, the second round has Yale at Quinnipiac.
To me Clarkson beating Quinnipiac will require Clarkson's goalie (probably Lewis) standing on his head or the Clarkson defense shutting down the Quinnipiac scoring chances. Also Clarkson has to stay out of the penalty box. Clarkson is still missing Sexton and this REALLY hurts their offense and power play. I know last night they got 3 pp goals but Princeton's PP defense was awful and Quinnipiac's offense would have gone 6-6 against them. Hopefully it will not be a blow out like the SLU game.
Surrey Eagles made the playoffs. They start Tuesday against the Langley Rivermen.Jonah and Nathan Renouf were off. Both had good seasons. Jonah finished at 20 goals and 41 assists and Nathan at 15 goals and 34 assists while missing 18 games.
