MacDonald didn't allow a goal for 170 consecutive minutes against the Statesmen, and he's a sophomore. Sorry Mark.
- Hobart skated hard and forechecked intensely, but could never find the back of the net until the outcome was no longer in doubt.
- Taylor pulled the goalie down three with 3 to go. Gutsy!
- Cam Miller took a real cheap shot slash on Campbell with about 90 seconds to go. Way to lose with dignity! Your parents must be soooo proud!
- Only ~500 in the seats at the anthem, but the ticket line was out the door. About 1300 total by the end of the first. Only 40 or so students, and the roundball team is really bad ... pathetic.
- EC's overall speed created a bunch of opportunities, and caused 'Bart to take a few penalties.
- Funny how D3 only sees the good referees at playoff time.
- EC created traffic in front of the net all night
- Acorn twisted his knee on his goal, and never re-appeared. Skating only 3 lines took its toll.
- Strale has ~really~ blossomed over the last 10 games.
Goals:
1 - Strale: Nice tip-in from a passhot from Campbell
2 - Schrank: Breakaway out of the penalty box. Defense had no clue penalty was expiring
3 - Acorn: Beautiful toe drag on a 3 on 2.
4 - Strale: Sniped in a blast wrister from the left circle from Linden
5 - Vallaincort: Another traffic tip-in from Kirby
EC looks very very good right now, but League championship games are not their forte.
