2018-19 Penn State Nittany Lions

Did the league suspend her? If not, a player has to sit out the next game after a DQ, but not for a game misconduct. The penalty for the latter is missing the remainder of the contest in which the infraction occurred.

Okay, that's a relief! I haven't heard anything about a DQ - just the 10-minute game misconduct, and I thought it meant she was out for a full game. Friday looks a whole lot better now...thanks for clearing that up.

I thought Burke was the back up or at least was the first time against Mercyhurst?

Chantal Burke is the first backup to Jenna Brenneman, but for reasons I don't know she didn't finish Brenneman's game against Mercyhurst last weekend.

Syracuse and Penn State have the most impactful transfers in the CHA with Hoppner and Brennerman this year.

Brenneman was a godsend for Penn State after Daniela Paniccia became ineligible due to concussions. I guess that's a bit unfair to Burke and Leonard, not having seen a whole lot from either, but Brenneman has been solid.

Penn State and RIT are scoreless after one period in Rochester. I'm listening to the game and only watching the live stats, so no real feel for the game, but it looked and sounded like all Penn State until RIT woke up in the last few minutes of the period. Penn State leads the shots on goal 12-7, both teams are 6-6 in the faceoff circle, and there are no penalties in the game so far.

And neither school got the link right for the live audio of the game, so here's the right link to listen to the game: https://witr.rit.edu/hockey

Click on "listen live" under women's hockey and it will download an m3u file (whatever that is)...open that and an audio player will open up and play the game.
 
Re: 2018-19 Penn State Nittany Lions

RIT scores to make it 1-0 after two periods on what sounded like a really weird shot - I'd love to see a replay. Penn State is now up 32-11 in shots on goal, but Tara Lanteigne is standing on her head for RIT, and RIT has blocked an additional 21 shots. Total shots are 69-21 for Penn State. Penn State went 0-2 on the power play, but still has some power play time left to start the third period.
 
Re: 2018-19 Penn State Nittany Lions

A predictable empty netter makes it a 3-0 RIT win over Penn State. How in the world a team can outshoot its opponent by a count of 50-18 and not score a goal is beyond me. Also, RIT blocked an additional 39 shots besides the Penn State 50 shots that made it on goal. Total shots were an insane 114-31, and not a goal scored by Penn State. That's a big problem. No penalties on Penn State, but they went 0 for 5 on the power play.

The first 2 goals were definitely not your typical goals according to what those video links showed. On the other hand, was Penn State using hockey sticks today?! Hard not to score a single goal with all those shots unless you're not using the proper tools of the trade!

Cam Leonard was a little lazy moving across the crease on that first goal, but I don't know how she didn't have that second one. She got up ready to hand the puck to the ref and I think the goal horn scared her, because she thought the puck was in her glove. Welcome to D-1, Cam.

You have to give a ton of credit to RIT's Terra Lanteigne - she's a hell of a goalie. RIT's defense blocking 39 shots is pretty impressive, too.

In Western NY this weekend. Got some puck luck, and the game fit into my schedule.

You did quite well with the limited info that you had.

Live, it was a bang-bang play. It was so quick it almost looked like something the Tigers had practiced. More likely it was a case of great anticipation on the carom & quick release on the shot by Jade Mancini.

Live, I didn't feel that she reacted to the horn. Although that thing is plenty loud.:o My eye said that Leonard was startled when she realized the puck wasn't in her glove.

The Official Scorer did a fine job with the Official 3 Stars. Lanteigne, though a pretty obvious choice for the top spot, played an amazing game. But you still have to get the call right.;)

From there, it was a great decision to recognize two of the leading shot blockers. #14 Ellie Larson got the 2nd Star; I believe the PA Announcer said she had 9 blocks. #21 Logan Land got the 3rd Star with 8 blocks. Of course those players were also difference makers on offense, with the 2nd Goal (Larson) and the Assist on the 1st Goal. (Land)

For Honorable Mention, I'd suggest PSU's line of Katie McMillan/Shea Nelson/Natalie Heising. They were skilled, hard-working & dangerous all game long. The fact they were held off the scoreboard speaks very well of the Tigers' Defensive Effort.

Don't know who to credit, but the Nittany Lion Defensive Corps did a nice job of keeping Tiger Star Kendall Cornine in check.

Last, and perhaps reflecting a little positive bias, it was very cool to see Central Ohio Native Izzy Heminger do so well. From the reports I've read, I expected to see a calm & confident defender, and wasn't disappointed. But Izzy also took lots of shots, and gave Lanteigne as much trouble as any of the PSU forwards.

To All: If you get a chance to see a game at Polisseni, do so. Compact, yet comfortable. Nice Video Board at each end. I didn't move around, but it appeared to me that all of the 4000 seats had an excellent view of the ice. Great venue!

Nice to get a PGB on the road recap! I am also happy to see Heminger doing well this year.

I really like that line combo, and I hope Kampersal stays with it today. Katie McMillan got switched to forward this season after being a defender, and is doing a good job with the switch. Shea Nelson was quiet as a freshman last season and has really turned her game on this year - she's like a whole different player, much more aggressive. Natalie Heising is Natalie Heising, but she hasn't been as consistent as I'm sure everyone hoped, so maybe that's encouraging others to turn up their game.

Izzy Heminger hasn't played like a freshman this season, for sure. She's also got a deceptively hard shot, and threw 17 of them toward the net yesterday, six on goal. She fits right into what seems to be the plan of throwing the puck at the net and having players bang away at it around the crease. She's had no trouble moving up to D-1 hockey.
