Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Cardinals Sting Concordia University in Exhibition

Game Stats here.

PLATTSBURGH - The Plattsburgh State men's hockey team opened the 2009-10 season unofficially with a 7-2 exhibition victory Saturday over Concordia University of Montreal before 1,575 fans at the Stafford Ice Arena. Freshman Chris Wieland scored midway through the second period to break a 2-2 deadlock and the Cardinals' offense exploded for four more goals in the third period.

The Cardinals will take to the ice for real the weekend of Oct. 30-31 when conference opponents Geneseo and Brockport come to town. The Stingers, who are members of the Canadian Interuniversity Sport-affiliated Quebec Student Sports Federation Conference, fall to 0-6. Per NCAA rules, statistics and results of this meeting do not count against the Cardinals' record.

Dylan Clarke led Plattsburgh with two goals, including his first of the night with 50 seconds left in the opening period for a 2-0 lead.

The Stingers fought back to tie it at 2-all on goals by Michael Blundon and Jesse Goodsell in the second period. But 25 seconds after Goodsell's tally, the Cardinals answered quickly with Wieland's eventual game-winner.

Other Plattsburgh multi-point scorers were Eric Satim with three points on a goal and two assists, and Jared Docking and Paul Puglisi each had two assists.

The Cardinals dominated in shots, 45 to 16.

Plattsburgh utilized three freshman goaltenders in Josh Leis (5 saves), Raphy Rossy (3; credited with win) and Ryan Williams (6). In the Concordia-Montreal net, Maxime Joyal and Roger Kennedy had 24 and 14 saves, respectively.

Plattsburgh Press-Republican Article - here.

"We're going to be an exciting team to watch this season," said Plattsburgh State head coach Bob Emery.

"We learned a lot about the team tonight and who can do what," Emery said. "We're going to give everyone an opportunity to show what they are capable of.

"We'll find out more in our practices and the Red-White Game this coming weekend. We want to play hungry and smart. Our goal is to get a lot of pucks on net and get rebounds."

I have to say, his goal for the team should help score goals (maybe he shouldn't give up his secrets like that) ;)

Saw the game and I thought the boys looked overpowering against an opponet that looked like they were forced to play at gun point. Could Concordia be THAT bad? I'm not sure coach could really gleam anything from the play other than: 1. we're going to be fiesty and 2. we're going to be able to skate most teams out of the rink - a couple of the boys really have a set of wheels. It will be interesting to see how coach takes advantage of that this season.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

How about that Joyal goalie for Concordia? He was tremendous. Gotta like a stand-up goalie. Two goals wasn't bad considering the way he got peppered. I thought Platts looked pretty solid. Looks like there's some "EMOTION" and a few bangers in there with the usual Cardinal speed. Concordia found out early that the refs weren't going to allow the Quebec brand of smashmouth hockey in a US college game and they flat out got worn down because of it. Great start to our season though.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Great points. There were so many shots by PSU in the first period that I think it took the score keeper mid-way through the first intermission to catch up. We also sent wave after wave of fresh bodies against a short bench. I don't think anybody played more than two periods, except maybe a couple of vets. Concordia has been on some lopsided scores and I'm sure at some point the guys would have given up on everything, but playing the body. But then again that would have required them to move their feet :) One thing I will say is that PSU better find some discipline. Too many penalties and a couple that took us off power plays or gave the Stingers a two man advantage. This team's speed will give them plenty of PP chances, no sense in giving them back.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Anybody who was at the Red/White scrimmage care to comment on the level of play, players that preformed well, who to looks to be an early contributor, disappointments?
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

I find it interesting that USCHO's D-III scoreboard show's Oswego's game against RMC, but not Platty's game against Concordia. Not that it's a serious issue, given that the game didnt count for much (except maybe to figure out the starting goalie), but consistency would be nice :D
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Based on the Pink Bunny with Princess Leia hair bun skates, Matty Cup and the Concordia game your top 2 lines for PSU are:

Satim, Clarke, Delong
Willock, Farrow, Wieland

Satim is going to have a MONSTER year. Was also impressed with Jared Docking's play. Emery calls him a John Wells with talent. No offense Wellsy. :D

As for a #1 goalie, I keep flip-flopping between Leis and Williams. Both will play this weekend BTW.

Catch the Monday 10/26 replay of WIRY’s Behind the Bench as Ducky & Emery discuss the Red and White game (the Matty Cup) and more.

Note Emery also states that of the approximately 1924 available tickets, only 1100 were sold as season tickets, 50 are reserved for the opposing team and 300 are reserved for Plattsburgh State students, so 474 tickets (just slightly less than 25%) should be the minimum available at the box office at 5:30 on game nights (plus any student tickets not picked up).

Note, replaying "Behind the Bench" requires the latest Realplayer SP - available for downloading free here.

Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

The Plattsburgh Cardinals, have been ranked first in the 2009-10 State University of New York Athletic Conference’s preseason ice hockey poll. At the vote’s conclusion, Plattsburgh had 71 points, including seven first-place votes.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Cardinals open to mixed reviews -

"We played like a team playing its first game of the season," Emery said.

"We're a work in progress," Emery said. "I wasn't happy with the amount of times we went offsides and we had players staying on the ice too long."

"I give Geneseo a lot of credit. They worked hard and took care of the front of their net."

"We took some bad penalties in the third period, which we can't do," Emery said. "I'll have to look at the tape to see how bad they were."

"It wasn't like we didn't play hard in the first period," Emery said. "But, we were hesitant and showed no poise."

"I don't know if we could have played much better in the second period," Emery said. "I would have liked to have seen us hit the net more. We put a lot of shots over the net.

"Leis is a confident guy and he gave us a chance to win. Anytime you hold an opponent to two goals or less, you should have an opportunity to win the game."

Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Cardinals beat back Brockport -

"We were able to create a ton of scoring chances," said Plattsburgh State head coach Bob Emery. "We played Cardinal hockey when we got our cycle going, got the puck in deep and played physical.

"We still have a lot of work to do. We have a young team and we need to show some patience."

Sheridan made 39 saves in the contest as the Cardinals finished with a 43-19 shot advantage.

"He's a good goaltender and we needed to get more traffic in front of him," Emery said. "I give Brockport a lot of credit because they kept us from getting second shots."

"We can't win games without our freshmen contributing," said Emery. "We need contributions from everyone."

"We came out and played well," Emery said. "We were able to get the puck in deep, but had nothing to show for it on the scoreboard."

"We had a bad turnover that led to their goal — we should have been able to clear the puck," Emery said. "We didn't play as well in the second period as we did in the first."

Williams stopped 18 of the 19 shots he faced to get the victory.

"He did what he had to do," Emery said.

Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Just in case anyone wasn't listening to the broadcast, after the Brockport game Ducky mentioned that Behind the Bench will start @ 6:15 this week instead of 6:30.

Also, has anyone heard if the fan's OK that got hit with the puck during the 2nd period of the Brockport game? Hopefully they'll have an update on Behind the Bench.

Yepp. Good ol' H1N1 has caused the Football Class B Section 7/10 Final between Peru and Beekmantown to be Monday night, and WIRY must broadcast that. Given that I'm from Peru, I'm not complaining too much. Go Indians!
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

So, with Williams in net tonight, will Leis be getting the start tomorrow night against Oswego, or has Emery decided to give Williams the weekend? Anybody know? :confused:
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey - 2009/2010

Sounds like Leis will get the nod against Oswego.

Nice performance from Williams tonight. I thought he saw the puck well. :D
