Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

I think its safe to say that this weekend/ tuesday game can make or break the Cards entire season and them getting into the NCAA's. If the Cards sweep the 3 games Plattsburgh is virtually a LOCK to get into the NCAA tourney. If they win 2 out of 3 they will have to be flawless the rest of the way through. IF they lose 2 they will have to win the sunyac. All in all this should be an amazing weekend for hockey!!

LETS GO BOYS!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

Emery just said people will be in line tomorrow around 2pm. He also said 1,000 standing room only tickets will be available.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

Wow. Tonight was BEYOND horrible for the Cards. Not only were they shutout 2-0, but the team just was atrocious. How is it possible to have so many shots on goal and not turn at least one into a goal?? Answer - fire in a lot of half-assed and soft shots.

I can't even fault Leis tonight. Granted, perhaps a mistake may have been made on one of those goals, but overall he kept the game within reach. Unfortunately, the rest of the team failed to do anything meaningful in a full sixty minutes of regulation. To see that kind of play - chock full of careless turnovers, predictable and poorly executed offensive plays, and a defense that enjoyed a lovely skate around the rink - was just an embarrassment to the Cardinal faithful.

Tomorrow night should be a REAL treat. Hopefully, some kind of magic will happen. Otherwise, this may be the first game that we see go into double-digits this season...AGAINST Plattsburgh.

People will be in line WAY earlier than, I still say this would have been the perfect time to get more people to see the woman's game if they would have sold a combination ticket to get a seat for both games. That could have drawn in more people for the Woman's game and could have started a all new fan base, which is what they have been trying to do since the beginning. Oh well like I said before I have my portable DVD player charged up and my wife and I are ready for a long day in line.

I see that both of the Cortland,s goals where on the 5 on 5,So you can not blame dear old ST.LOUIS:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

O.K. I have to ask the question. Has Cortland ever shutout Plattsburgh, home or away? Count on the game tomorrow being a one goal game.

And you'll be giving them all the praise in the world tomorrow if they beat Oswego.

Get real dude. You're as fairweather as they come. :rolleyes:

Prezde,

Why do you have to rip on everyone? Just wondering.

Just call it like a see it Cards. TacoRob is completely irrational and throws the team and/or goalies under the bus left and right when things don't go the way he wants them to. (aka Plattsburgh winning)

It's either Plattsburgh played great aka won or they played terrible, the whole team sucks yada yada aka they lost.

There is no in between. I'm not saying Plattsburgh played great as obviously I wasn't there, but I don't think TacoRob's throw the season away rambling is needed especially considering he'll praise everyone if they beat Oswego tomorrow.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

Yeah, but it's a blog. He doesn't technically have to be impartial. I would certainly not consider Rob the official voice of the Cardinal faithful, but I'm just upset as he is about tonight's loss.

I don't know what's worse...losing at home to Buffalo State 6-3 or getting shutout by a team that came into tonight's contest at 3-13-2? Definitely low points of the season.

I will tell you this. YOU know just as much as I do that they will come out skating 100mph tomorrow night. Maybe we'll even see some quality scoring chances too. :)

This is your first sentence and you want to be taken seriously?

Tonight's game was an absolute disgrace to the fans of Plattsburgh State.

Plattsburgh outshot Cortland 40-16. It's sports. Like life, **** happens. Grow up and deal with it.

Okay, so I read his blog. Not a big fan at all, but whatever. What happened to ethics in writing?

I have learned, after a loss like this, it's best to sleep on it and form your opinions the next day, rather than commenting at the height of yoiur personal emotions...

Losses happen. You swallow your disappointments and move on. Heck, Norwich lost twice to this "atrocious" team. Can't help but note his backhanded slap at Leis:

This is what is sometimes called "darn"ing with faint praise. (Of all the words to censor come on, consider the context it's a standard phrase :eek:)

This seems to be the culture of the SUNYAC, however. Look at how Oswego fans reacted to their losses. Must be something in the water in upstate NY.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

Fairweather my *** , that was terrible , this years team has showed an uncanny way of playing down to the lowest level of acceptible performance a few times this season. I personally keep wondering what night the crap will return. I didnt see this one coming in any way shape or form . I was embarrassed for the whole program and would have more respect for Bob if he would have called the team out . How can Bob paint it : "but our effort was good" . a good effort results in wins against the bottom of the barrell teams like Cortland .

In my mind its not possible for the team to be considered as good as they were during the winning streak when its sandwiched between a beyond mediocre start to the season and that result against Cortland

I love the Cardinal Hockey Team , it is my winter passion but Im a realist and that just sucked .........
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

I don't know what else can be said besides Plattsburgh carried the play of the game and did play well. however, Cortland was ahead on the scoreboard at the end when it counted. A team can play well and still lose (see Oswego during Dunning "rein" there). Yes, the game last night sucked, but the team showed that they can control play, they just need to find the back of the net.
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

I needed to vent or I would have been venting for 20 minutes before game time , Im better now .

Fair-weather? Hardly. I do praise the team when they deserve it. There are times when things may be a little unstable, but yesterday was an absolute train-wreck. Last night's game against Cortland was not a simple "Oh, they made some mistakes" thing...this is by far the worst I've seen Plattsburgh play...EVER...for many years
 
Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2010-11

Dragons be darned - - {Article from the Plattsburgh Press-Republican 1/29/2011}

This one really hurts.

Jarrett Gold's goal just 20 seconds into the game Friday night surprisingly held up as Cortland stunned Plattsburgh State, 2-0, in men's hockey at the Stafford Ice Arena.

The Cardinals (13-5-1, 6-5-0) had their 12-game unbeaten streak come to an end and certainly didn't give Plattsburgh State any momentum heading into tonight's home game with top-ranked Oswego, which took care of Potsdam, 8-1, Friday night.

The determined Red Dragons (4-13-2, 3-7-1) kept their SUNYAC Tournament playoff hopes alive while beating the Cardinals for the fourth time in their hockey history.

It was also the first time Cortland has shut out Plattsburgh State.

"This was a bad, bad loss for us — it's going to really hurt us," said Plattsburgh State head coach Bob Emery.

"But, I felt our effort was good. We carried the play and we moved the puck well on the powerplay. Maybe, we just didn't deserve it. I don't know."

The Cardinals outshot the Red Dragons, 40-16, and Brittan Kuhlman stood tall in the Cortland nets with 40 saves to record the shutout.

Plattsburgh State's aim was off, however, as many of the shots were at Kuhlman's chest.

"We made their goalie look good," said Emery. "And, I don't know how many times we missed the nets with shots."

Gold gave the Red Dragons the lead when he turned in the faceoff circle and sent a low shot past Plattsburgh State goalie Josh Leis.

"We had bad coverage on the play and you can't give up a goal that early in a game," said Emery.

It stayed 1-0 until six seconds remained in the second period.

The Cardinals were applying the pressure on a powerplay before the puck deflected out of the offensive zone and Joey Christiano went in on a breakaway as the puck eluded Leis.

"They had good timing on their second goal and it's one of those plays where nobody was at fault," Emery said.

"But, it's a Cardinal sin to give up a goal early in the period and a goal late in the period."

The frustrated Cardinals pulled Leis for an extra attacker with 1:33 left in regulation, but were still unable to find the back of the net as Kuhlman held his ice.

Plattsburgh State came up empty on five power-play opportunities in the contest.
