I don't think many of us believed that a National Team with 13 games under their belt would come into Oswego and get beat. After all Oswego has not played a game. Last week the CC ice was shut down for over a week for the huge symposium that took place.
What I saw last night was a D111 team that plays very well against a finess team. Our Lakers made many defensive mistakes, but they also made some great plays. Next week in Buffalo it will be a different game to see. More hitting from both teams, and believe me none of us are taking any SUNAAC team lightly
Agreed - way too many give aways in our own zone...but well done in the mental toughness part of the game - they didn't fold, they didn't panic, they didn't quit....I don't think many of us believed that a National Team with 13 games under their belt would come into Oswego and get beat.

Davies I believe is a soph,he played at U of Alaska-Fairbankks last yrAgreed. There is a ridiculous amount of talent on this team. To think, Hulshof and Botten and Rivait were sitting. Those guys are going to be back, and this team is going to be unbelievable. Joey Davies is going to find himself a spot on this roster. As for Durocher and Herlihey, I'm sure they'll get to play a few games. But this year's roster is brimming with so much talent, they may find themselves playing only a few games.
Realistically, Davies may end up being the only freshman getting regular icetime this season, which is a bit of a shame. Each one of them would be on the 1st or 2nd line of almost any other team in D3, but in Oswego, may not be able to crack the roster at all until next year. There's only 6 seniors graduating this year though, so some of these guys may not even get much ice time next year either if Oswego recruits one or two more talents like Davies next year. They're basically going to be waiting until their senior years before they get the playing time they really deserve.
From our perspective as the fans, having too much talent is a very nice problem to have. From the perspective of the players, though, I really feel for them. Winning a championship doesn't quite feel as special if you spent the entire season watching instead of playing.
nothing serious I hope??Rivait and Hulshof are hurt not sure about Botten or Barton.
I don't know, just heard they were hurt.

unless they came out with a new rule, I would go with Soph. something tells me he will do enough damage in 3 yrsThere was some confusion on that, since he's listed on the roster as a freshman, but was shown on the scoreboard as a sophomore.

Galati can score in so many different ways. He can snipe it but he can also score ugly. He get's himself in the right spots to score goals and doesn't miss very often.Matt Galati is the new mayor of snipe city. Wow. Kid can flat out rip it.
yes Barton was a BIG factor down the stretch,scored a big PPg vs Platty IIRC.....all hustle all the time and earned a spot on the Powerplay come last yrs end...hope he wasnt hurt already.....I think Durocher and Herlihey will get their fare share of time and I think the other new guys will as well. Herlihey played very well in the half of the game he played. Barton also did not suit up in this one and he was a regular last year.
