Re: Northeastern Hockey 2013-14 Season
Huge weekend, Clay Witt and the rest of the guys came up big when they had to. ZAR lighting the lamp twice was nice to see, I like how we have a number of guys who can score, it is not just the Roy show. Clay deserves every bit of his shutout, though I also would like to credit the PK unit for killing off all 7 Merrimack chances, including a 5 on 3 for a full 2 minutes. I know MC isn't exactly shooting the lights out but it is nice to see some improvement. 14 PIMs are still too many, but when 8 come in the form of Ferriero, I think that shows the players who have a brain were able to play disciplined.
Also a noticeable different in the faceoff circle, where NU won 46 of 71 draws. Dalen Hedges went 14 of 15, that's amazing to see. Nice to have confidence in the centers to win the draws when they have to.
No HE play till PC on 12/6, so good luck to the boys in the Thanksgiving tournament. GO NU
