Damn. Get the puck stolen on an easy clear leading to a Yale score

BTW, The penalty on Goffredo looked weak. Both players had their sticks up but not much contact. The ref was behind the Yake player so he really wasn’t in position to make that determination.

Whenever we are up by 2, we give up a goal.

 

[Go Puckman]

Any extended time in our own zone, and we are toast!

 

[Go Puckman]

Hopefully we can hang on.

 

[rpi82]

Yet again we don’t take the simple fix. On Yale’s 3rd goal McDermott tried to play the rebound in front of the net rather than just poking it behind the net or to the corner.

 

[Waite21]

Under two minutes to play, RPI still holding 4-3 lead.

And yale has pulled the goalie.

 

[Ralph Baer]

ENG Lee!

and it isn't a penalty

 

[Waite21]

Empty-netter for Lee. 5-3 Engineers.

Nice to finally get a win

 

[rpi82]

Solid effort. Still have some things to clean up but a big step in the right direction.

First win in New Haven since December 7, 2012

BTW, It would be nice if the boys could play at least one game like this at the Field House……

First win in New Haven since December 7, 2012

Having been to all of the intervening losses but one, of course they had to win on the occasion I stayed home because my wife is under the weather.
