Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 2011-12 - The work and progress continue..
Yep, all of this. A little perspective is needed: through the Primelink last year, Plattsburgh was 5-4 with two VERY ugly losses, even with the tourney win. The Cards turned that one around pretty well by season's end. This year, they've had a single-goal setback, a loss to the #1 team in the country, and a scoreless tie. I don't think it's time to declare that the sky is falling just yet.

True, and while having a significant number of players paying the piper (sitting out for disciplinary reasons) and integrating many new players.

spoke with some of the players after the Norwich game and the conclusion I got was that because of Plattsburghs heavy for-check the players were tired early in their shifts. putting the pressure on Norwich deep in their own zone, then having to hustle back to the defensive zone was very tiring on the huge sheet of ice that Midd. has. not trying to make an excuse for the loss, the mistakes speak for themselves when it comes to the goals, just passing on the input I got from the guys I talked to.

I think that to beat Norwich, you do have to break up Norwich's attack early on. If you let them get wound up starting out of their own end, you will end up with somebody finding open ice on the way up the ice. There is a price to pay, and for a team like Plattsburgh that is used to playing on a shortened rink, that going be expensive. Plattsburgh did a good job defensively against Norwich. It will be interesting to see what information other teams will have gathered from watching/comparing the approaches that Plattsburgh and Elmira took to the games.

From last nights BtheB w/ Emery (not direct quotes):
The goalie situation is kinda wide open...there is an agreement w/ the goalies that you win and you keep playing...since Sat. was a tie, it's up to us [the coaching staff].
At the end there was an exchange in which Ducky says something like ... perhaps there will be two goaltenders this weekend...and Emery responds "who knows."
He is certainly keeping it close to the vest and the tie vs. Middlebury certainly doesn't clarify anything.
Is there going to be video of Friday night's matchup?

My logical guess - Josh Leis. He got the shutout against Middlebury.
Yet, I REALLY HOPE we see Mathieu Cadieux in net Friday night. Josh's numbers against Oswego are horrendous. Personally, I feel like Plattsburgh's best chance to win is with Cadieux between the pipes.
He played solid against Norwich. The first goal was cashed in from a two-on-one opportunity when Mike Grace turned the puck over in his own end on a cross-ice pass attempt.
The second goal. (See above, but Grace made himself look just as silly when he failed to gain possession of a loose puck in the slot).
We'll see.

A statistic that just caught my eye - Plattsburgh State is 2 for 27 on the power play in their last five games.

I'm pretty sure we are well aware of that. I'm also pretty sure the point they were trying to make is that those numbers are kind of alarming, given the past history of Plattsburgh's PP. Hopefully the boys can turn that around this weekend; its going to be important that they click and create grade A chances on the PP against Oswego because the Lakers will most likely give Plattsburgh quite a few PP opportunities.

Actually, my point was that Plattsbugh's offense has more to be worried about than just the power play. Their defense surely looks solid, but they need to score goals, and that's the issue.

I will try and find out for ya. I know there was talk of all home games being broadcasted on Primelink.net this year, but I havnt talked with PSTV yet this year. It will probably be like last year when they dont announce it till the day of the game.
