Colgate 2019-20

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 9, UMass Lowell 6, SOG after one.
Colgate 2, UMass Lowell 1, score after one.
Hard work paid off in that period.
We didn’t give up, after their first well-executed goal.
Our first goal (to tie the game) was the result of a pile in front of their net, but we kept at it.
Our second goal was again the result of hard work. Great goal.
We had one Power Play and we continue to just shoot it in (not carry it in). But, I am not complaining. And Mitch is again making some super saves. Fun period.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

UMass Lowell 20, Colgate 19, SOG after two.
Colgate 3, UMass Lowell 2, score after two.
First three shots and one goal to tie it for UML.
But our third goal was a repeat of our second... shot and tip.
We didn’t give up. We worked hard.
But now I expect we will just attempt to dump the puck out of our end... for 20 minutes. This will be frustrating for a ‘Gate fan, I believe.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

I am back at the hotel now, but still wound up.
What a great game and not just because Colgate won, but because it was a pretty close match-up.
Both teams were pretty even on Shots On Goal, until we tried to sit on a one-goal lead for the entire third period.
I counted thirteen times that we just dumped the puck out of our end, before their fateful power play goal.
Only a couple of times in the third period were we truly aggressive. Thankfully we were in the OverTime.
Since I don't do a good job on here of identifying the players (other than goalie Mitch Benson, who again played a stellar game), here are our goals tonight...
13:04 of first, Jared Cockrell from Arnaud Vachon and Paul Meyer.
16:27 of first, Paul McAvoy from Henry Marshall and Trevor Cosgrove.
3:59 of second, Trevor Cosgrove from Nick Austin and Griffin Lunn.
0:09 of overtime, Ben Scharf from Nick Austin.
I thought it was a real team effort tonight, and hopefully the guys will remember the excitement and feeling of accomplishment in the locker room after the game... for tomorrow night's game.
We can do it... again.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Very happy today about the win, you have to learn how to win. Also, Colgate Cornell football is on ESPN+ at 1:30 today, with a win we could tie the series up for the first time ever I believe, over 100 years.
Strangely enough, the series is at 49-48 Cornell, our series with Syracuse is 49-49, until next year, dammit.:mad:

Re: Colgate 2019-20

Well, that was a fun game to watch last night.

When Lowell scored first to take a 1-0 lead, I thought "oh dear, this could be a long night". But no, we responded well and even had leads of 2-1 and 3-2. But we did get a little lackadaisical in the 3rd period. McMann had a shorthanded breakaway that was stopped, and seconds later Lowell scored a PPG to tie it and I thought, "crap". Then 9 seconds into OT we win it and I'm probably one of the only people in the building that was elated.

Winning breeds confidence. Can this be the spark that fuels the team this season?

In answer to your question Shabby, hockey beat football to the first win..:)
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Mitch Benson in goal for night two in Lowell.
Hoping to sweep the weekend, but that might be too much for which to hope against a team that has already defeated the defending national champions.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

UMass Lowell 12, Colgate 8, SOG after one.
Colgate 0, UMass Lowell 0, score after one.
Good period of hockey.
Colgate bounced one in, but it was called offside.
I think one penalty to each team.
Go ‘Gate.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

UMass Lowell 21, Colgate 20, SOG after two.
Colgate 0, UMass Lowell 0, score after two.
Great hockey game.
Up and back. Great goaltending by Benson and UML’s Wall (different goalie than last night’s Neaton of UML).
After last night’s game, UMass Lowell coach Norm Bazin said Colgate was ‘desperate.’ If so, desperation seems to be working as a motivation.

I'll take three out of four points on the road every weekend ! Great weekend boys, and it looks like we have a great goaltender !!
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Back at motel again; still wound up.
Just so proud of ‘Gate this weekend.
They still haven’t begun ‘manufacturing goals,’ but their defense is playing better this year than last.
And while I hate to see a team put all of it’s eggs in one goaltender’s basket (so to speak), Mitch Benson has really stepped up to replace our previous Point guy in that position.
Since I have always enjoyed watching Enrico Blasi’s Miami of Ohio team, both home and away (as a former Omaha season ticket holder), I will miss Rico but I am looking forward to seeing Miami at Colgate next weekend. It is a real opportunity to put our non-conference record at 3-3-1, which wouldn’t hurt ECAC in the PWR. Go ‘Gate.

Re: Colgate 2019-20

kudos to IowaBasedTraveler for the initial call and the summaries...excellent weekend (an away weekend no less)...hard work combined with a little more depth on our third and fourth lines...and Benson very, very solid in goal...early results do indicate that the ECAC maybe down somewhat this year (although Harvard and Cornell don't start for two weeks or so)...and shout out to Ben Sharf who has worked to become a solid hockey player - improving every year and gives 100% on the ice...nice to see him get a VERY important ot goal in game #1...let's get McMann going - and the first line and pp unit as well - and we can be tough to play against...
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Impressive showing on the road. Let’s see if that is something upon which to build . . . .

Absolutely need to build on this. Miami is down again (1-3-1) all at home vs. some sub par competition. If this is going to be a respectable season one win is mandatory this weekend to keep the faith. Anything more would be a huge bonus much like last weekend.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Hi again everyone! The ECAC schedule begins this Friday, so you only have two days remaining to submit your entry to this year's ECAC Pick The Standings Contest. Follow the link and all you need to do is project the final standings and see how well your predictions match up with other fans on the board along with the media and coaches over the course of the season. I hope to see you all there!
