CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

I hope Joe Howe continues to play well... go CC:)

Met his mother before the game. Saw her after the game and had to give her a hug, she was a very proud mom!!

I would like to thank the city of Mankato for not putting me in jail tonight (Saturday morning).

Go Tigers!!
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

I'm a little shy on Friday nights, I'll try harder Saturday night. I did buy some Mav fans beer!!

Good job! I have bought a few people beer down there. In fact, I know of a couple of people that loved me in person that absolutely hate me on here, because they didn't know who I am. It is pretty fun.

bigclean excluded, of course. Gasthof's has to happen again big guy, BTW!

Right on! I can relate brother!!

Mankato is awesome, it is great to be back here.

The penalty on Canzanello is a ticky-tack weak call at any stage of the game, and just astounding at that juncture. He stood him up at the blueline and gets 2 seconds to ride him off before he has to release the player. By that point, the puck is already in the corner and Sweatt was way out of the play. If the bar for penalties is set that low, then there were about two dozen missed calls tonight.

Not letting them change lines is also just as bad. I don't know what Hunt is trying to prove. That said, it's a mistake on Jutting for not using his timeout there. It's not like they carry over.

Other than the end though, it was a really entertaining game for being scoreless all the way throughout. Howe and Testwuide were both phenomenal for CC.

I agree with your assessment of the penalty. There's no reason it should have been called in a 0-0 overtime game, it would have been questionable, at best, if it had been called during regulation. I would venture to say... last night was the best I've ever seen Canzanello play. I thought he did a nice job of taking William Rapuzzi off the puck, he may have held on a little too long after doing so... but Rapuzzi was so far off the puck by that time it didn't matter.

Looking at the bigger picture... the Mavericks just need to put the puck in the net. They had countless opportunities that should have gone in.

I thought both teams were very impressive last night and I can't wait for tonight's game. Joe Howe was absolutely phenomenal.

I don't know how Joe Howe improves after last night's game.

The Mavs will be flying tonight.
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

I agree Canzanello looked different last night. He had a second gear we haven't seen in the past, and he was much more assertive in his decision making.

Both goaltenders were outstanding, too bad Austin couldn't get a shutout after a solid 3 periods.

I was not impressed with Testuwide last night. Big kid, very intimidating when camped out in front of the goal, but that was about all that caught my eye as a positive for him.

Mavericks will have to be awfully hungry tonight, I'm sure CC is better than they played last night. Hard to watch CC steal two points from a game like this.
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

Canzanello was really good up in Duluth too. He's definitely played a lot better this year, and is probably pretty close to being a guy that has to be in the lineup every night.

Testwuide was a huge match-up problem for MSU all night along the boards and in front of the net. He's not flashy, but CC's best pressure last night came with him out there.
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

Going to check out Hazzards after the game tonight, haven't been there yet despite my frequent visits to the 'Barmuda Triangle'...

Do the girls still wear the daisy dukes in November?

Major snow storm for Denver and Colo Spgs may delay the departure of CCtig and the Tiger team from Minnesota on Sunday.

Canzanello always seems to play well against CC. I wonder if playing against his brother's former team has anything to do with it? I've always been impressed with him and was disappointed when he didn't commit to CC.
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

Despite overtime the penality was strong enough to be called. Regret that I do not know why the Mav's could not change out. Your assessment is fair.

The thing about the change was the 4 guys who ended up on the ice were not all on the ice at the time of the penalty call. We ended up with 3 defensemen and 1 forward and then they threw our center out of the faceoff so we had a Dman (Youds) end up losing the draw cleanly. I agree with Maize, Jutting should have taken his timeout since the 4 guys on the ice were obviuosly confused as to where to line up.
 
Re: CC @ Minnesota State 11/13-14

Nice job CC! It is good to get the sweep on the road. Sounded like Mankato gave us everything that we could handle and more. Glad that we don't have to face them again in the regular season.

Tig - I hope you had fun and I hope you have a safe trip home. It is supposed to snow all night and all day tomorrow. Take it easy.

Thanks Dave, I had a blast, Mav fans are great which is the biggest reason why I choose this road series. But I must admit, getting home is weighing heavy on my mind. Should I have another beer?
