Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

Re: Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

Defense is where we're hurting right now. Miami scoring 14 seconds into the game was an ominous sign. I felt bad for our goalie to have that happen in his first collegiate start but our "D" let them in right to his doorstep.
I will add that tonight the Miami fans around where we were sitting were very pleasant & nice and I have no complaints whatsoever (except for us losing).

Oh totally. We should have anticipated that....especially at their home opener. I really felt bad for Tomkins.
 
Re: Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

I hear ya...I felt it all the way back to Columbus. I know the team did too.

I'll give Rolick credit, he played all freshmen and sophmores tonite, including Tomkins for 60 minutes, except Gedig. Non-Conference, let's work this out and find our groove. I was happy for our performance in a hostile road trip.

If Miami is all about the skating & puck handling we should have countered not with trying so much to match them but with a more physical presence. Putting the hurt on Czarnik & Barber would have had positive results for us. The moment a Miami player touched the puck they should have been targeted - Old School! Where are the Hanson's when you need them? LOL!
 
Re: Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

Remember last night, the minute we touched Czarnik or Barber, we got a penalty called. We were very shy, we should have been bashing them against the boards. Its also non-conf, lets give our younger guys a chance to play and not let our guys get hurt. Save that energy and gain experience for the big 10.

I know, but it's Miami, you feel like you just have to hit SOMEBODY. Still, getting a little nicked up won't hurt us too bad at the moment as we have a month and a half until we open conference play.

Justice and revenge will come... North Dakota and Denver will silence the Goggin :)
 
Re: Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

Were they? NCHC refs were the same? Lower left pad above the goal line was the key.
 
Re: Ohio State Buckeyes - Coach Rohlik - First Year in the Big Ten

Go to the stats for both nights, same guys! I was wondering what the deal is if we have crews doing inter-conference work? I haven't talked to Piotrowski lately to know what the scoop is.
Well I got back at 2:30 from Oxford and it's time for bed. Goodnight & Go Bucks!
