What's the cutoff day for the pole, Tuesday or Wednesday? The BU / Q matchup in Wed.
 
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

Penn State completes the sweep against RIT, 3-1, and remains in second place in the CHA, 2 points behind Mercyhurst.

RIT seems to be competing more at the level of their D3 origins so far this year. Hard to figure out after last season's success. Now they're in their first "real" season and seem to have slipped. Not able to handle the pressure? What's going on there?

Their seniors must have carried them last year. RIT has gone from conference champs last year to the basement this year. They play hard (some would call it chippy), but they don't seem to put plays together. It looks more like reactionary/opportunistic hockey.

Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

I missed the first period. Quinnipiac didn't look great tonight. They made it an even game for the first five minutes of the second, and for the five minutes after BU went 3-0 up, but other than that BU applied pressure much better than Quinni did. The defense was by and large very effective, with fast reactions and the ability to get pucks out of the zone quickly, and did a great job killing a full two-minute 5-on-3 (first penalty on Uden Johansson for interference, second a bench penalty for I presume not liking the first one). They did a reasonable job passing the pucks up the boards on their own side to start the move in the other direction.

However, the forwards seemed pretty uncoordinated. Cross-ice passes seemed not to connect, there wasn't much passing in the zone (except on the one PP, which they managed well except the BU PK managed better). By the third period they just looked slow, except for Cianfarano who didn't do a lot in the second but was Quinnipiac's best player on the ice for the last ten minutes of the game. The shots on goal figures (22 QUI, 26 BU) in no way reflect how close the game was. A lot of Quinni goal shots were taken from the far side of the circle with no support; BU felt like it had at least twice the quality chances that QU did.

QU also seemed to be pushing the envelope in terms of physical play much more than BU and could have got called for far more penalties than they were. Uden Johansson's penalty came on one of a series of dubious plays and it wasn't a surprise to see her finally go to far.

This was obviously not a good night for Chelsea Laden, and I don't want to rag on her too much, but I was very surprised by how many rebounds she gave up. She showed good reactions a lot of the time but didn't manage to kill the play the way I would expect an elite goaltender to do.

BU, on the other hand, looked much better than I expected. Poulin and Lefort were very sharp together and so were Bach and Leslie. They played very disciplined, took few penalties, and provided good support on moves forward.

Quinni will need to improve considerably to stay top 4, with BC / Harvard / Dartmouth / Cornell coming up. I feel like a lot of tonight's problems come back to Laden -- although the two goals I saw weren't terrible, she used up a lot of her and the team's energy making them kill pucks that shouldn't have been alive after the first shot.

For BC fans, the intriguing stat is that Laden is on .91 GAA (up from .74 at the start of the evening -- the sad thing about low numbers is you don't need to add a lot to them to make them significantly bigger) and Burt is now on .93, with Leveille next at 1.16. Which means that unless it's a four-goals-each-side game on Saturday, the winning goalie will also win the lowest GAA in the country. The way things look now it's tough to bet against Burt to take that.

If anyone is planning to catch the St. Lawrence - Mercyhurst game onlie today, the time posted on this website looks to be incorrect. It says 3:30, but SLU's website lists it as a 3pm start.
 
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

SLU 2 Mercyhurst 0 early in period 2.

A beautiful pass from Marchment to the slot in front and Webster tips the puck past Makela.
 
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

With 12:56 to go in period 2 Robelio with the Mercyhurst goal

With 10:15 to go SLU scores from a scramble in front. Raniwsky with the goal.

SLU 5 Mercyhurst 1 Marchment on a break in throws the puck in front and Wand buries it with 4 min to go in period 2.
 
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

Heidersbach of SLU hits the crossbar in the first min of period 3.
And the SLU colorguy thinks Mercyhurst is located in Minnesota. :)
12 min to go in period 3 and I have to go.
Still SLU 5 Mercyhurst 1.

Minnesota beats St. Cloud 4-0 in a somewhat sluggish game. With the complete game shutout Shyler Sletta remains on track to set both the Minnesota and NCAA career goals against average and save percentage records.

Unfortunately, you need a minimum of 2000 minutes and 1000 saves respectively for NCAA career records in those categories, so she'll need a lot more playing time. ;)

I don't worry about that sort of trivia.

6-1 final SLU over Mercyhurst...Outshot 41-22. :eek:

Of note in the other early game is that I believe Hannah Brandt now has 201 career points with 3 points this afternoon.
 
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread

No Fulton, Saulnier, or Bunton in Cornell's line up for tonight's game against Darmouth.
