brown is a bad hockey team with a good goalie. when you get out shot by a bad hockey team with a good goalie, you lose. thats how they work. its not magic, it happens when the better team lets it happen.

Since it is the BIG 4 0 for me today it would be really nice to see the boys bounce back tonight and get the W. Need to play much much better than yesterday. Although SA says he doesn't think it was an issue I really think the week off hurt us. Passes were not crisp, couldn't keep the pucks on sticks, bad judgements on breakaways, and not as physical. Guess I was wrong when I thought they would come out hungry wanting to prove a point and letting people know who RPI hockey is and about. Hope they change that tonight as I would be more than happy to stay sober enough on St. Patty's Day to go to another game!

We just did not play playoff hockey. Too many errors in all phases of the game. Some goaltending, soem defensive, and some up front. Fortuante to have only taken 1 penalty. If nothing else, Brown has a consistent team-they do not not give you much and you have to match that. You cannot give them the chances to score we did tonight. At the same time, to get anything by their goalie you need to keep pressure on and men in front of the net. We had a few quality chances, but not really that many. Would have loved to see this one go to OT and play a lot longer. But tomorrow now is the entire season wrapped up into one game.

This is just my opinion, but I thought that they came out nervous. Their passes were off, they weren't as aggressive as they have been and they seemed to be chasing the puck all night.
This is not the confident team we have seen the last twelve weeks.
I don't know what to expect tonight. If they were nervous about a playoff game, what will they be in an elimination game?
I will be here tonight rooting and hoping for a win. And if they get it, I will travel up to the field house tomorrow to watch them win a playoff series.
They just need to remember who they are and play like it.

Look what the cat dragged in. It's a shocker that you would chime in now. I missed your great insights during the winning streak.
 
Re: RPI 2013 Part V: Who Wants Screech?

My thoughts from last night....This is why I didn't want a bye-that wasn't Engineer hockey we saw yesterday. Our passes weren't crisp, rarely seemed to connect...The little kid behind me remarked that "They always pass it to a Brown"-seemed like more often than not that was true! I thought our energy level was good, so maybe it was a communication problem-we didn't play the team game we've come to exhibit over the past few months. I realized this was our first home loss since Quinnipiac last semester, which makes it even more of a shock to the system-I got used to us winning! It feels like I sat through 60 minutes of OT hockey-early on it started to feel like whoever scored first was going to win, and that 1 goal against felt like ten. At the same time it wasn't a goalie duel-the low score was more a result of the teams spending a ton of energy chasing around the rink, and missing on wide-open scoring chances. Yes, we only took one penalty, but it felt like the refs swallowed the whistles last night. Hopefully we got all the jitters out and play today like any other game-the pressure of the playoffs was getting to me in the stands, and the whole thing felt terrifying.

Out of curiosity, how many people (that weren't at the game) watched the video vs. just listening to WRPI?

Happy birthday Stay@homeDad!

Tsk, tsk. Brown is a young, injury-riddled, moderately talented hockey team with a pretty sharp coach, a ton of heart, and a hot goalie that has gone farther this season than anyone had a right to expect.

There, fixed it.

I did! Wished I could have been at the HFH, and the video feed wasn't worth the $10,
but it was nice to be able to see the game (as great a job as WRPI does!) Only real
saving grace was the ability to see all 4 playoff games, so I caught the end of the Union
game, and bounced around the others during intermissions.

Looking forward to seeing some quality play tonight from the boys! It's been TOO long since
we've been to the small dance...
