Plattsburgh vs. Brockport

Ok, I admit it. Whenever Brockport comes to town to face the Cardinals on home ice, I cannot help but yawn. Similar to how Bill Murray must have felt in the movie "Groundhog Day" it seems as if the same outcome is a given. For me, the Plattsburgh/Brockport matchup seems to always wind up with a good - but not great - Brockport squad that ultimately falls to Plattsburgh by a handful of goals. Tonight was no exception.

Feel free to check out my recap - available at http://www.therobbrennan.com/journal/2009/10/31/cardinals-send-brockport-home-with-4-1-loss.html
 
Re: Plattsburgh vs. Brockport

I agree with most of your assessment of the game, however I have to disagree with you about Sheridan. after Plattsburgh went up 2-1 it was almost like the D stopped skating for Brockport. Jobb's goal was just a treat to watch as he put a move on the D, then faked Sheridan out of his "retro" pads. not quite sure what you mean by "carry on and pout like a third grader".... I saw him chewing out his D for leaving him out to dry, but I wouldn't consider it pouting... overall, good win for the Cardinals and it should be interesting to see who plays in net next weekend.
 
Re: Plattsburgh vs. Brockport

In fairness, I think that is because I instinctively "tune out" the fact that Brockport has any defense to begin with :) My bad!

Yes, you are correct though - Sheridan was definitely hung out to dry hardcore. That third goal was pretty hot though, wasn't it?
 
Re: Plattsburgh vs. Brockport

Tonight's game was much more of a classic "Emery Hockey" game, the Cardinal's were within 90% of looking like any Cardinal team under Emery's tenure. The missing 10%? Well, they were making the moves, making the passes, shooting and .... missing the goal. Sheridan did make some nice saves, and in one case, with the puck behind him, an alert Brockport player dropped on his butt and slid through the crease, taking the puck with him, one of the coolest, last second blocks I've ever seen.

... The only real constant is Emery. Like him or not he produces winners and makes players BETTER over the course of their careers. I think that is the biggest thing Plattsburgh had going for them last season and for their 18(?)SUNYAC titles
