Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

What is going on, there is normally lots of chat during an OZ game, where is everyone, in Lake Placid?
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

No score after 1. In my opinion, it looks fairly even. Oswego was getting a few better chances at the end there, but other than that, a very tightly contested game thus far. I like the defense that Oswego is playing, I like the poke checking and the deliberate play they've been showing. If they can finish a couple of these opportunities, we'll be in good shape. Lets go Lakers!!
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

good first for both teams,both goalies looked good,there is a lot of ice out there for sure,no pens yet for either team, could come down to a PPg or shorty...hold on boys
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

They are going to have to put some traffic in front of LaRose or get him going laterally. I'd there if I didn't have to work.
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

Placid is a great atmosphere, but I think it's really a goofy place to play a championship. Teams play all year on North American rinks, then they play the penultimate game on an Olympic size rink. It's like the NFL playing the Superbowl on a Canadian football field. It's a completely diffrent game.

The longer this goes, the more this plays into Amherst's game.
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

hare is playing great and larose is on his game.......only 1 gripp Mather got mugged on the brown semi-breakaway where was the call he got his legs sub-marined and he didnt even come close to the puck????? great hockey for sure
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

yes it plays to amherst but its gonna be an ugly goal that wins I think, deflection, rebound ,hard worker goal
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

Amherst is a team with strong skaters and disciplined defense. They're forcing Oswego to cycle the outside and force passes into less than ideal situations. Oswego has to crash the net and try to capitalize on odd man rushes. This is Amherst's game right now, they're just playing their style hockey.
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

Hare has been terrific... kept them in the game, so far they have been outshot 26 to 19 by Amherst. It does have the feel that this game will be decided by a fluke - hopefully not a bad mistake.

OMG - the NCAA announcers just called Pete Sears "Paul".

He's been botching Leimbrock's name all night. I got sick of it and switched to WNYO's feed.
 
Re: Oswego vs. Amherst: Where's the thread?

Don't discount the experience factor. I like Oswego. The Juniors have been through this two times before and Amherst must have that "Happy to be Here" attitude. Oswego by 2 with an empty net.
