Good luck, Aerman. Have two buddies stuck at JFK trying to get down here for Carnaval. Since late last night.
Back-and -forth thus far. Pots had an early chance but since then, BC has been peppering us.

On the PP, but not with the 5-forward approach.
First group was Pots/Ty/Corr/Clel/McNich
Second was Boyd/marks/smith/vela/Gaudreault
Looked ok, but no results.
Oh, and here we go with another PP!

Really want to see the replay on that Pots chance. I have no idea how that stayed out of the net.

I was just about to,post that Cangelosi has been giving us fits, and check THIS out....
He draws a penalty on Nazarian for a hold and in the midst of the delayed penalty, Salvaggio buries him in the corner to pick up a hitting-from-behind call.
5-3 PP for BC. Should have been a 5-min major on Salvaggio. stupid.

DT sees 19 shots in the first and turns them all away, including stoning Fitzgerald with 3.3 left.
Alright, I gotta tap out - it's almost 11 here and I have a 5:30am wake-up. UNHJourney34, hope you can pick up from here!
Go Cats... Would love to wake up to a W.

Re: UNH Wildcats 2015-2016 (Part Two) - Managing Decreasing Expectations
Tirone had a great period. UNH was way to nonchalant with the puck in their own zone. Way too many turnovers in their own zone. Offensively it was Gaudreault-Smith-Vela who had the most even strength offensive zone time and did the best job breaking the puck out of their own zone. But the best chances were from Pots and Kell on the PP and Miller hit the post off a faceoff late in the period.

I miss Darin cause back then I could come in here and actually have some ammo to fire back........
I guess we can 100% agree that Josh's general absence from the boards is a loss for all of us. I don't know Cloud9 so I won't go there, but he's been an informed, opinionated and entertaining poster too. But just to be clear ... I never disappeared from the boards, I just cut way back on posting because other things were more important and taking up what used to be spare time spent here. I still don't get to see as many games as I did in the old days - my choice, but influenced by other commitments - which I hope changes someday? I'm guessing these changes/choices may apply to Josh and/or Cloud9 now, and hopefully someday they'll be back and more active again, too.
I'd say I'm sorry if you've been offended by my presence ... IF I was sorry, but I'm not.If my posting on this thread (or "other team's threads"
) offends your sense of protocol, then I think that's more your issue than mine. After all, back in the days of the posters you cited earlier ... forays into "other team's threads" were not so uncommon, were they? We had fun, we met people, no one died and we had some laughs - and lots of them were at our own expense.
Re: "minions" ... seriously ... do you ever feel this "whooshing" sound when you're posting, 'dc?
The *Massengil* reference was a nice touch, though. Mega classy.
To be honest, I've rarely (if ever) come on here claiming to have oodles of inside information. I have some - used to have a little more back in the day. I'm sure HR has way more current interactions with folks close to the program now. If your measurement of a poster is based on how well-connected they are to the program today, then I lose, and I'm fine with that. Do I need tons of insider info to form an informed opinion on 90% of the stuff that we discuss on here? I don't think so ... and if it's needed and I don't have it, I'll say so. And if someone does tell me something they want held in confidence, then it is held in confidence. But I'll chime in based on those insights.
You see, when I started at USCHO way back when, I made a deal with myself, which I stick to on any other message board I post to, and it is really quite simple. I am who I am - I'm not "Cat Scratch Fever" or "Umile's Whistle" or something creative but safely anonymous. So when I post something, I have to stand behind it. And if I'm wrong, I admit it and move on. I don't disappear or change to a new ID. I'm probably the most transparent person on here, although Greg is probably pretty much the same in sharing without hiding. I'm not doing it for "attention" or for a participation medal - it's just my own way of keeping myself in check. I've only changed one bit of info in my USCHO profile since my "quiet time", which was probably to give myself a minimal layer of protection from annoyed fellow posters (sound familiar?), and all in all it's a pretty transparent gag that most folks on here have already picked up on.
I'm not recommending or expecting others to take the same approach to transparency that I've taken - it sets me up for shots like some of those you've taken at me today - but that's how I roll, and I'm not planning to change.
I'd like to think the bottom line is we're all on here to contribute and be a fan on our own terms. I never came here expecting everyone to like me, so if you don't like me or the way I handle myself on these boards, then don't let me cramp your style.
I do appreciate you laying your cards on the table though, 'dc. Honesty is the best policy. Now scram.
Sorry to everyone else for wasting your time. Hope the 'Cats find some joy during this challenging weekend.

Boyd is back in the lineup tonight, playing in Dawson's spot. He has been out of the lineup a couple weeks in a row.

Oh my god what a save
Tirone dives across the net and makes a huge save.
But Boyd takes a stupid penalty and a shot from the point gets tipped and and BC is up 1-0

And then UNH defense leaves someone all alone backdoor. He walks around Tirone and puts it in the open net. Nothing Tirone could do, 2-0 BC.

Back and forth play to start this period. 'Cats just haven't finished their chances. UNH needs to get some puck luck in the offensive zone to have a chance in this game. Because defensively they can't keep up with BC's puck movement. Tirone has played extremely well, game could easily be 6-0.
BC does a great job of having layers of support on their rushes. While UNH attacks with all 3 forwards and gets caught giving up odd man rushes when they turn the puck over.

UNH finally gets a break! Shot from the point saved by Demko but the rebound hits Smith who was standing in front of the net and the puck trickles through Demko into the net. 2-1 BC

Period Ends with Eiserman taking a shot right after the buzzer and BC players don't like it. it was right after the time expired, so hopefully no unsportsmanlike penalty for Eiserman.
UNH responded well after giving up the 2 quick goals. They had multiple good chances and did a better job controlling BC's chances. Tirone is still playing strong, and Smith's goal keeps the game within reach going into the 3rd.
