Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Chris Ciotti commits to LSSU-http://www.nahl.com/news/story.cfm?id=2463. Can anyone confirm this is Bobby Ciotti's nephew? I think Bobby played at Lake State back in the late 70' or early 80's. Also played for the Soo Indians back in the day-excellent hockey player. I think this is a nice pick up for LSSU.

An NAHL kid at that. Should make Buck happy. :)

I believe it is his nephew. I know their was talk of a commitment from a player whose uncle played for the Lakers back in the 70's. This is probably that player and goes along with what Bill posted the other day about a possible commitment from a player out of the NAHL. He also is in the top 10 in scoring in the NAHL which is nice to see. Good luck the rest of the year Chris and welcome to the LAKERS!

Lakers need to get off to a strong start tonight like Western did 2 weeks ago. Scoring that first goal will go a long ways towards a win tonight.
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Bobby Ciotti was quite the player back in the day. I remember him playing for the Indians, but not the Lakers.

He was a smallish, but talented player who played above his size. Much like a Marty St. Louis.

He looks like a good signing. Leading point getter on one of the top teams in the NAHL. An older kid, hopefully that means he is mature enough to step in as a freshman considering we are going to have some big shoes to fill with Schofield, Acton, and Nehring graduating. I see he was drafted into the USHL before joining the NAHL, any idea why he went that route?
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Good effort by the team tonight. That was by far the best game I have seen the Lakers play all year. It will be interesting to see how they respond now.
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

A demoralizing defeat tonight. Great game by Kapalaka and the rest of the Laker team but I think this heartbreaker really deflates the Lakers for tomorrow and Notre Dame wins easily. Hope the Lakers prove me wrong.

If they would have brought the energy they played with tonight, over the entire year, they would be in 4th or 5th rather then playing a top team like Notre Dame.

Exactly my thoughts. I was coming back online to post just that. This team had the talent level to nose out Ferris and Western in the battle for 4th place and the top "second tier" school in the CCHA. It's too bad they waited until the playoffs to start to figure it out. The Lakers just couldn't take care of business on home ice and beat the bottom feeders consistently. That's what put them in this situation. After the Ferris sweep, LSSU picked up 14 points at home (including series against BGSU and State) in 10 games with only 1 outright win. They played well against mid-tier schools: sweep of Ferris, 9 points against Northern, split of two series against Western, 4 against Alaska. Against the bottom three schools (BGSU, State, OSU) the Lakers managed just 11 points in 8 games. Even if they would have averaged 4 points a series against those bottom three that would have put them within 2 points of 5th place. But alas, this is all meaningless now. The Lakers season could end tomorrow if they can't come through and surprise with a W.
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Check out the Notre Dame Thread. Comments by long time poster Irishhockeyfan - "Roque outcoached Jackson a bit last night." The regular ND posters said that the ND outplayed the Lakers for good parts of the game but were fortunate to win. Not all goals are pretty. Also sounds like they were impressed with the play of KK.
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Mental patients should not have such easy access to computers.

I could not watch the game last night but i did listen to most of it and with what was posted on here bye the more reputable posters I am not ready to give up on the team yet. Yes it sounded like they missed some opportunities to capitalise but they took a tough Irish team to O.T. I think it may give them a little confidence going into tonights game. We will see tonight.

Make no mistake I think the Irish will come out better tonight but i think the same could be possible for the Lakers as well. The freshman need to bury the puck when they get the chance just like they have been doing ever sense they were out of diapers. The seniors played well last night and i expect nothing less from them tonight.

"They (Lake Superior) are a good team. They don't give you a lot of chances," said Jeff Jackson.

"They are good defensively, their goalie is outstanding and they transition well offensively. You have to be at your best when you play these guys. Any mistake you make can end up in your net."

Notre Dame is unbeaten (4-0-16) in its last 20 overtime games.
 
Re: LSSU Laker Hockey

Seriously who is that crazy man thats posting the crazy stuff? Anyways from the Notre Dame side of things you guys did play extremely well last night and a couple of my fellow season ticket holder felt lucky to come away with that win. We know that you guys are a better team than you were earlier this season and that no matter if we had to face Alaska or you guys in this second round that we were going to have a battle on our hands that couple be taken to a three game series easily. I was extremely impressed with your net-minder. Regardless if you win this series or not I think you guys do have a promising future. Good luck tonight, although of course I hope we have better luck.
