RPI vs Army 10/31/09

Re: RPI vs Army 10/31/09

RPI ran out of gas COMPLETELY in the third. Very tiresome, frustrating, and all too familiar sight.

The more things change the more they remain the same-we play down to anyone's level. This team should have and could have put this one away with all those shots early. We let them stay around and Army just wears you down.

I hate to second guess-but you just cannot underestimate anyone anymore. We can't blame this on a hot goalie-we just did not finish our shots and we got out muscled throughout the game. We were faster and more skilled but we fell into playing Army's game. This team has a lot to learn yet.

There were some cases where they couldn't and some where they weren't allowed to. More than once, play was blown dead when the Army goalie did not have the puck covered and at least once we were slashed to keep the puck out of the net. A sad loss, that's for sure.

That is probably the best description-Army was able to stymie us and we just did not have the size and strength to play that type of game. Lots of shots but not a lot of quality chances for us.

Thanks to all who watched the RPI TV feed.

We'll be back next week for Black Friday vs. Yale and Saturday vs. Brown.

Feedback is always appreciated, post here, message me, or email hamilr2@rpi.edu if you watched the feed and would like to comment.

Not tonight... am in and out with some commitments. Hard listening to game on werpi tonight. We do have some more growing to do. Did we expect it to be in a straight line? There will be nights like tonight... not too often, I hope.
