Belated Happy 2020 to all of the 'Gate posters! Looking forward to the games this weekend....FINALLY! We were the only ECAC team not playing last weekend. I hope the boys can shake off the cobwebs early on in the game vs Union. It will be good to have Verboon back. Who will be in net? Go 'Gate!

Rainman, I am headed to Union now and RPI tomorrow night.
I really dislike Union (two bad experiences at Achilles the last two years), but I love RPI (especially with former Canisius coach Dave Smith, whom I met a couple of years ago at the Fairbanks tourney).

As a public service announcement, tomorrow night is Autism Awareness Night at HFH....and while that is an extremely admirable cause, it is also a great way to extinguish anything resembling home ice advantage (i.e. no railroad goal horn noise, exuberant celebration or anything resembling joy...
) Point being, Colgate has a good chance....HA

Union 6, Colgate 4, SOG after one.
Union 2, Colgate 0, score after one.
Colgate 13, Union 8, face offs won after one.
McMann penalty. Union scores.
Cockrell penalty. Union scores.
Stark penalty. :44 seconds left on it at opening of second.
Lackluster period overall.
We had one Power Play and were ineffective.

Colgate 16, Union 12, SOG after two.
Colgate 2, Union 2, score after two.

We came out strong early in the period.
Both of our goals were even-strength.

Re: Colgate 2019-20
The Union player did knock the net off its moorings.
He wasn’t pushed into it by a ‘Gate player.
It was replayed on their Jumbotron twice and it was evident.
Having said that, a penalty shot in the final two minutes of a 2-2 hockey game did seem severe. But, I will assume the officials know the rules better than I do.
Bobby’s penalty-shot goal was a quality one.
We got the win and we can go forward. For Union, it just sums up their season to-date. And, again, that doesn’t bother me in the least. Their program is just not a fave of mine.
But, we definitely need to do a better job on Power Plays and with Penalty Kills. Farrier wasn’t greatly tested tonight (SOG were low for both teams), but he played well. The defense did a good job of keeping the puck along the boards and not giving Union a lot of quality shots. And we did a good job of being aggressive in the opening minutes of each period. In fact, the third period was my favorite as both teams showed a sense of urgency that they hadn’t in the first two periods.
On to Houston Field House and Go ‘Gate!

Re: Colgate 2019-20
Love the local media's one-sided, biased take on this:
"There were plenty of ways to describe the way the Union-Colgate ECAC hockey game ended Friday night at Messa Rink. Pick one: Strange. Peculiar. Odd. Bizarre. Unusual. Weird. Different. All of them would fit."
I believe the word they're searching for with the INTENTIONAL delay of game is DESPERATE, sheesh.

Re: Colgate 2019-20
The first period was maybe their worst period played this season. They looked like a team that was playing only their third game in thirty four days, rusty. Almost turned ESPN+ off, decided I'd watch some of the second before I turned it off. Whoa, what happened, team came out flying in the second and tied it up, two different teams. First half of third period shots were 9-1 favoring Gate, second ten Union turned it up a little and even though I thought we deserved to win, I was afraid Union might score and steal a win. With 3-4 mins left Farrier got just enough on a save that literally trickled just inches past the pipe. At that point I would have been happy with a tie and one point.
Union killed a penalty with about two mins left, we were putting the pressure on and in a mad scramble with bodies falling all over, a Union defender slid behind Hansen right into the pipe knocking the goal off it's mooring. He did this all by himself, he was absolutely not pushed in by anyone. ESPN+ showed the replay 3-4 times, they had about five minutes to show it as that's how long the four zebras were conferring. You've read the rule and the officials finally got one right, you know the rest.
Got our split on the road, now let's sweep and make it six in a row unbeaten in ECAC play. Finally, kudos to Bobby McMann on the penalty shot, he's had a rough go of it.

gutsy comeback and a quality win against a Union team that has played well over the past 4-5 weeks...noticed (and it's not hard to notice) that Cosgrove was not in lineup last night...hope nothing serious...

Re: Colgate 2019-20
Deliberately dislodging net with less than 2 minutes to go in regulation is a penalty shot-automatic unless team chooses delay of game option.

Capt. EO... thanks. The under-two-minutes part was key then.
