Utica College hockey. ..Can we catch a break this season?

Scores has last night's game a 1-1 tie and the standings shows it as a tie also with UC 3-0-1 in league, I believe. Listening to WTLB and Ed O'Brien this am a caller said Lebanon Valley won in two OT's on a controversial goal. He said it was scored with no time left on the clock and no red goal light on. Ref never pointed at the goal signifying a goal either. I'm guessing after one OT it's considered a tie, then they play another OT(s) until someone wins ? My assumption. I guess Heenan blew a gasket. Were you there fish ?

I was on the far end of the ice, and didn't see if it went in or not. Looked harmless from where we sat, and late in any case... But the refs were probably as fed-up with the silly UCHC OT rules as we were.

;)

EDIT: Yeah, Shabby, in this conference both teams garner a point after an OT tie, then they go to a 3X3, then to a shootout, for the extra point (whichever comes first)... Feels like overkill to me.

JSYK, there's an apparent crack-head type who owns but an orange vest and a couple of spray-painted signs, and attempts to sucker people into paying $5 a shot for parking in this or that vacant lot adjacent to the Aud that he doesn't own. He moves around from night to night, and a few people regularly fall for it.

Don't.

Parking on Broadway is free. In fact, any street on Utica is fair game until 2 AM. This loser needs to go.

SOG were 43-20, and UC barely squeaks by Plymouth.

Prior to that, OSU (with their 5 D-1 transfers), got hammered by Salve.

Is there any way to do the math these days?

I only count 4 D-1 transfers on Oswego, one of whom (Solow) didn't even dress this evening. But the hammering by Salve is true enough.

Brown, Vance, Gillespie, Molinaro and Solow make five.

Not that it matters much. D-1 wash-outs don't necessarily make much of any difference way down here, yet the talent gap can be startling at other times.

My bad, I overlooked Gillespie. Thanks for the correction.

Elmira got lucky with their D1 transfers this year. Christian Lloyd with 7 points and Chris Janzen 1.80 GAA and .939 save %.

They've had some great D-1 transfers over the years... Tonight, only Ott (of that ilk) figured in the scoring, but his toe-drag, top-far-corner goal was as pretty as it gets.

Absolutely as close to a perfect an outing as can be for UC tonight, against the #1 team both in the PWR and the KRACH. Very, very, encouraging to watch.

Dickson looked stellar in net, too. (Hope Baggs is OK, though. We thought he was speared in the abdomen last night, but couldn't confirm that via our usual source... Anyone heard anything?)

No one on here in 2019 has ever said that UC looked like a NC contender, least of all me.

But, tonight's game was encouraging, wasn't it? (Assuming that you actually saw it).

See you on Parents' Weekend, or not. Try to be objective, in any case.

:)

This.
Coach got the right mix on the ice tonight. If this lineup becomes the core and plays like this every game they'd be a tough out for anyone.

Couldn't agree more. Didn't all 4 lines click beautifully..? And nary a mental mistake from the D.

I can't remember seeing a better performance from any NCAA team, and I watch far too much college hockey.

Lots of road games coming up. Hope that Gary sticks with the lines and with the general approach.

... And the Lakers absolutely steam-rolled Plymouth just before that.

It's hard to reconcile the meltdown in the 3rd v. Salve with the dominant outing that followed.

But, having seen most of both OSU games, my guess is that they have a good shot at an AL. Lots of talent there.
 
Re: Utica College hockey. ..Can we catch a break this season?

Local news channel I think channel 2 has all 5 Utica goals, plus a great view of the 4th goal which was a thing of beauty.

Agree, that was a complete game from start to finish. I would not tinker at all with the lineup with the exception of Landrigan when he returns. then I think you dress him as the extra forward unless you exchange him for Fitzpatrick. Just all conversation. Discuss....

I have never seen a a more lovely goal than that one. Pure artistry. (I'd love to bottle that entire game, actually.)

FWIW, I talked to a man who seems well-connected at the Plymouth game. He said that Landrigan was a healthy scratch, which made me scratch my head, but hockey parents are notorious gossips, as fun as they are.

Still, I'd insert Landrigan on any line. He has the best hands on this team, IMO.
