3-0 and 27-26 advantage in shots. I just can't figure out how Nazareth only has a couple wins this year? They looked very good last night, and had Oswego chasing in their own end pretty much all of the 3rd. This game was as close as the 27-26 shots total indicates. I don't think Oswego had an off night at all, Nazareth just really played a solid, fast game with a solid goalie who can handle the puck very well. Both teams forced the play to the outside, Zawadzki had a great game last night with probably his best rebound control, everything being directed into the corners. It just was a good competitive hockey game to watch, I enjoyed it
October 24th of 2008 at the Domes was the last time Elmira beat Oswego, a 2-1 final. The Lakers went on to win 22 straight games after the Elmira loss before ending their magical season with a loss to St. Norbert in Lake Placid.
Elmira seems to be playing better hockey as of late and Oswego is pretty tired after playing so many games in a short period of time. If Elmira can stay out of the box and get Oswego to take a few penalties they have a good shot at ending their streak.
To me, it looked like a combination of Naz playing a good game and Oswego not as much. They played ok, don't get me wrong. But they definitely didn't look like the team that put up 9 the other night. They had some really bad giveaways and some of the really bad passing that we've seen all season. Naz hung in there, for sure. And this game easily could have been 2-1 instead of 3-0. Z made a huge mistake when he came out of the crease and flung the puck right to a Naz player, and then made an amazing pad save. He screwed up and he knew it. For a few minutes after that, he stood in the crease shaking his head. Oswego's last goal could have easily been waved off. It sort of looked like it went in off of Montagna's hands and his hand motion made it like he punched the puck into the net.
Either way, another win for the Lakers. It's been a tough stretch of 5 games in 8 days and if they can finish it 5-0 it will be quite an accomplishment.
Cliche, but better to have this experience now....down three early, fight back...just fall short....plenty of material for the coaching staff to work with....on to conference play.
+1. Just an off night. 6 games in 10 days, plus a long bus ride to Elmira could have meant some tired legs. A rare off night for Z, but good for Gilbert for playing well for 2 periods to allow the Lakers to come back and make it close. These guys aren't going to go undefeated, we all knew that. This team does have a history of playing well in big games and not so well in the smaller ones. Who knows what happened last night, but now it's just time to get ready for next weekend.
It might be 2 hours but for some reason it seems longer than that.Long bus ride? Elmira is 2 hours from Oswego...
Yesterday it was 2 hrs to and an eternity going back.Long bus ride? Elmira is 2 hours from Oswego...
When was the last time Elmira beat Oswego? It would be a nice win after a rough season last year.
