Hey MMF
Glad your team didn't toss in the towel when they saw the "odds"?
Yep, I'm over here trolling.

We never toss in the towel (nor water bottle ;)), we just do our best to beat the odds.
We're on track.

Go Nooks!
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Nooks are tied up with FSU 1-1 after two on Saturday's night game. Sloppy game for the Nooks. Getting out-shot badly. But we have killed a two minute 5x3 and are half way thru a five minute major and still tied. Haven't looked sharp at all. Not moving our feet and can't make a pass to save us. We still need to kill 2:19 of the 5 minute major to start the third, but then we need to really crank it up. We shouldn't even be in this game based on our play so far. Let's go boys.

Go Nooks!

Kiraly with the OT winner. Big 5 point weekend that bumps us up to 5th place. Especially big for the standings since UAA seems to have learned how to play hockey all of a sudden.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Nanooks win!! 5 of 6 points again on the road. Hopefully we can get some points at home next month! Shots on goal tonight was pretty much the opposite of last night, thank you Davis Jones for keeping us in the game! Looking forward to being in Bowling Green next week for the games, let's get some more points!!

They got healthy.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

The boys played a solid third period, especially considering we started with a two minute PK. Really settled down and played better hockey. Back and forth action and we were fortunate enough to get the OT winner for all 3 points.
Get'em at BGSU next weekend.

Go Nooks!

I don't think I've ever said this, but great ****ing weekend you guys had. Seeing you guys climb the ladder shows we can do it too. Oh and **** Ferris btw.

Smaller team that relies on chemistry and skill, can take some time to jell.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Good to see you take it to Ferris. They were goons last weekend against us. How many times did they run your goalie this weekend?
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Something else worth calling out, I think this was easily our best goaltending performance of the season. Jones only let one in and had 45 saves. For a team that is dead last in goals allowed (84 on the season for 3.5 per game), this was a very worthy performance by our senior.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Nooks lead BGSU 2-0 after one. SOGs 11-7 Nooks. The Nooks started off a little back on their heels, but picked up the pace the last 10 minutes of the first. BGSU is getting good cycling time in the corners, but the Nooks haven't given up many good scoring chances. Stay aggressive boys.

Go Nooks!
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Nooks lead BGSU 3-1 after two. BGSU was all over us that period. SOGs 22-18 BGSU. Terrible first ten minutes of that period. Fortunate not to be behind. Took a bad penalty at the end of the second, so we start the third a man down for almost two minutes.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Don't look now, but Davis Jones suddenly has a 0.95 save percentage in the last three games.

Way to go, boys.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

Nooks hold on to win 3-2. The last few minutes was hair pulling (if I had any). BGSU scored their second goal, then we went 4x4, then the Nooks took a penalty, then BGSU took a penalty, then they came with the extra attacker. Nooks held off some 4x3 and 5x3 to get three critical points. Do it again tomorrow.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks: 2016-17 Season Thread

No score after the 1st period in Saturday nights game. SOGs 12-6 Nooks. Nooks came out looking good and dominated play for 10 minutes. Even play the rest of the way. BGSU will start the second on a PP.
