RainMan, I wondered on the drive home if the goal 16 seconds in wasn't a bad thing, as it may have given 'Gate a false sense of confidence.
TeacherBill, to be fair, this is not your father's Canisius team. They are 5-1 now with other wins over Clarkson, Saint Lawrence, Long Island and Army West Point. And the only one-goal game in those four wins was the Long Island win in OT.
Whatever coach Mike Harder and his assistants, and/or Daniel Panetta and his assistants, said last weekend after the Friday night trouncing by BU certainly was heard, loud and clear, by the rest of the team. Hopefully they listen intently before tonight's game, too, and perform accordingly. Go 'Gate!

The ugly C, the change of color from maroon to crimson, and the ugly uniforms will never grow on me TB!
Women's uniforms are much better and have been for years!

Reid Dyck led Colgate onto the ice for tonight's pre-game warm-up.
Andrew Takacs and Jack Olson are also dressed for Colgate.
Chase Clark led Canisius out onto the ice for the second straight night.
It appears that a Boston Bruins scout was in the building last night and tonight.
Five minutes in and Canisius' Zacher scored. If you back up the highlight reel, you'll find that we gave the puck away in our own zone on that one.
Canisius penalty (hooking). Killed.
Colgate penalty (tripping). 12-5 'Gate SOG going in. Killed. 14-6 SOG coming out.
Colgate's energy level is 300% higher than last night. Beating them to the puck in the Canisius end. Taking shots. Blocking shots.
Colgate 15, Canisius 9, SOG after one.
Canisius 1, Colgate 0, score after one.
Tonight has already been a good night for me. Talking with "Red" pre-game, who then turned around and started booing the officials. he he he
And I visited with R. Braden Houston. We will get together at some point so I can learn about his playing days in South Africa.
Two minutes into the second and a beautiful team effort by Colgate... Tyson Doucette from Daniel Panetta.
Colgate penalty (tripping). Canisius scored a PPG instantly.
Canisius penalty (hooking). Killed.
Colgate penalty (holding). Canisius penalty (embellishment). Both killed.
Canisius penalty (tripping) with 96 seconds left in the period. PPG by Colgate's Isiah Norlin.
Canisius penalty (hooking). Colgate penalty (embellishment).
.5 seconds to go in the period and Canisius' Zacher scored.
We may very well lose this game, but it won't be due to a lack of effort (like last night).
Colgate 33, Canisius 16, SOG after two.
Canisius 3, Colgate 2, score after two.
1:36 remaining on the matching penalties.
Colgate scores a wrap-around goal... Jake Schneider from Daniel Panetta.
Another Colgate penalty (interference). One minute in and a Canisius penalty (interference).
Colgate penalty killed. Canisius penalty killed. Colgate's Jack Brandt scored an even-strength goal from Michael Neumeier and Max Nagel.
FINALLY... the lead in the game. Ten minutes left in regulation. 38-17 'Gate SOG. Will we go into a defensive shell?
Another wrap-around goal... this time by Max Nagel from Jack Brandt and Ryan Sullivan.
On at least three occasions tonight, we've seen Colgate perform a shooting gallery. Shot after shot after shot.
Canisius pulled their goalie with two minutes left.
Colgate 41, Canisius 18, SOG final.
Colgate 5, Canisius 3, score final.

IF a Boston Bruins scout was in the building my guess is that one of his points of focus would be on Michael Neumeier...suggestion to two of our forwards (nameless): 1) try and stay out of the penalty box for one night, and 2) try not to stick handle through everyone...

GreenCoat... Reid Dyck is a Boston Bruins draft pick.
And I echo your words on staying out of the penalty box... for ALL of our players! he he he

Last night: 3rd period lead turned regulation loss.
Tonight: 3rd period deficit turned regulation win.
We are apparently still figuring out our team identity for this season. Canisius is 5-2 so far (including our split with them), so this could turn into a quality win for us if they continue to play well.

Just a much-needed win tonight.
And a good win for Reid Dyck.
Of course, Canisius accomplished their weekend goal... a split on the road.
I also had a good visit with John McGraw tonight, who continues to set the gold standard for fairness and objectivity in college hockey announcing.
Interestingly, Maine had a tie and a loss at Quinnipiac this weekend, which is similar to our loss and a tie at Boston University last weekend.
Michigan State swept BU in Boston. And RIT took Clarkson down tonight. All very interesting.

Coach Harder's rough comments after Friday set the appropriate tone...a total turnaround that gives me hope for a split at Maine...certainly a jekyl and hyde weekend...

Colgate had 41 SOG on Saturday, which got me wondering... was that the most SOG by Colgate in the Mike Harder era?
And the answer is no. In his 76 non-conference and ECAC Hockey games, his teams have outshot their opponents 38 times.
In seven of those games, Colgate has had 40+ SOG. In six of those games, Colgate's opponents have had 40+ SOG.
In those seven games where Colgate outshot their opponents (with 40+ SOG), their total SOG have been 49, 44 (thrice), 43, 41 and 40.
In those six games where Colgate's opponents have outshot 'Gate (with 40+ SOG), their total SOG have been 48, 45 (twice), 43 (twice) and 42.
With Maine coming up on the schedule this weekend, it should be noted that we have played them twice in the Mike Harder era (both in Orono).
They outshot us 35-31 on Friday and 45-30 on Saturday of that weekend.
Any guesses when Colgate had 49 SOG and against whom?
Any guesses when Colgate faced 48 SOG and by whom?
Finally, Colgate's lowest SOG in the Mike Harder era for an entire game? 10.

We know how Canisius felt last Friday night in accomplishing a weekend goal on night one.
Reid Dyck played very well, but he also lucked out when Maine missed a virtually empty net very late in the game.
We played the defensive shell game to perfection in the third period. It is nerve-racking, but it worked.
Kudos to Mike Harder and his staff, too. Scheduling NCAA Tournament teams as non-conference opponents on the road and, so far, we are 1-1-1. It is early, but that is impressive.
I liked the fact that the Maine guy next to me, with his two little sons, turned to me after the game, hand extended, and said, “Good game!” Pretty classy, as I did a lot of woo-hooing tonight. he he he
