NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

Way to go SNC - championship game will be on at the Abbey Bar in DePere Sat night - can't wait!!!
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

Wa-hoo! :)

Way to go Knights! Nice job not getting rattled everytime Oswego came back to tie the game.

Good luck tomorrow!
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

SNC seem to have that effect on teams.

The worst game of the dozen I have witnessed in person this season...but credit SNC for constant pressure and hustle.... :o :o :o

I counted 3 goals off turnovers, although I am a bit fuzzy on the ppg.:mad: :mad: :mad:

4 goals on 20 shots - not a good time for the keeper to have a pedestrian game...:eek: :eek: :eek:

Good luck SNC - you deserved the win and to advance today...:) :) :)
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

Congrats SNC! An entertaining game to say the least. One more game to show the east what western hockey is all about! Brint it back to the CHEESE.

4 goals on 20 shots way look weak on the surface but lets remember that three of the four goals were iso situations for KGT because of bad defensive breakdowns.

Sure you like to see your goalie make a save or two in those situations but in no way do I think KGT should be pinned for the loss.

I know you said pedestrian game. I don't think you're blaming the loss on KGT, just want to make sure people don't get the idea like TacoRob would that it's okay to throw the goalie under the bus from this game because it certainly wasn't his fault.

Bad game for the Oswego defense that has been pretty consistent all season for the Lakers.
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

It was really hard not being there, but it was exciting to watch anyway. I felt if SNC could at least stay even on special teams they had a decent chance. Great job by the guys keeping their composure and answering everytime Oswego showed how potent they can be. They took advantage of the opportunities they had. They were smart in not letting Oswego make it an end to end track meet while they waited for some mistakes to cash in on.

I wanted to echo what Prez said, I wouldn't put it on the goalie even though the final numbers don't look particularly good. None of those goals were remotely soft. It usually takes a couple of those saves to move on in a game like this and unfortunately for Oswego he couldn't come up with them, but this isn't on him. Whoever lost this game was going to feel like they had their chances.

On a side note, great job by Webb. He sounded like a seasoned vet in there.
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

On the PPG I think Lyon dropped his stick in left circle and got caught trying to retrieve it.

Those blueline turnovers will sting for a very long time.
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

Was stuck at work and didn't see any of the game. How about a recap. Did SNC slow the game down, OSU sqeezing their sticks, bad goals, or just out skated?

Correct Prez...this was a "team effort"...no one person more responsible than the next.....SNC had a game plan that worked - Oswego had no answers...
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

As in most games of this caliber it was the errors that decided the game giving the puck up at the blue line (Twice) and a power play goal.
the best team on the ice tonight won (just thought I use a Cardinal saying)

The "third place" game will be played next fall, maybe the first part of November :D

Here's to SNC I hope they win so we can say we lost to the National champion.
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

First let me say congrat to ST Norberts of taking advantage of Oswego's mistakes and that was the difference in the game. Oswego just laid an egg tonight. For the first 30 minutes they looked confused on the ice surface, lost a step, and just not the team that I have seen over 15 times this year. I thought Oswego did a great job staying out of the box. I thought the Lakers would have used the bigger ice surface to their advantage but it actually worked against them. Time ran out when Oswego appeared to be the dominate team that they are. For those who have seen STN how does this rate with the way they usually play? I really don't think STN did anything to disrupt Oswego at all. They just took care of the opertunities better than Oswego did.
Congrats to a young Laker team and to a terrific season. Be Proud of this season and grow on it for next year.

As much as I agree with you about how poorly Oswego played yesterday and that this was by far there worst game of the season you need to give SNC a lot more credit. You said that you don't think SNC did anything to disrupt our team. Their defense was probably the best we have seen all year and it confused the crap out of this team and they had no idea what to do to break it. Blame goes all around from players to coaches b.c somebody needed to come up with a way to get around it as the game wore on.

With all that said great season and unfortunately they played their worst game when it counted most.
 
Re: NCAA Semifinal OSU vs SNC

To paraphrase an old saying "2/3 of the world is water, and the rest was covered by the SNC defense.". They were terrific and we rarely found open ice.

Best of luck to them.

Good to meet up with you yesterday GL2K! We should do it again.

On my way to Albany - maybe catch the ECAC Final. Go Red!

I am no expert on OSU or SNC. Have not seen either all season but based on the game between the two that I saw yesterday--LakeEagleLover has given a fair and balanced assessment of what happen in this game. SNC came to play and won.
