Today's plans got scuttled so we find ourselves in Mankato in time to see them take on The Lions. First surprise is that it is"dad's day" and all fathers get in free. 20 minutes to puck drop and i count the crowd at 23; maybe they are like the Gopher mens fans and not show up before5 minutes into the first
 
2-0 Lions end of 1. SOG 5-3 You might think that indicates a real defensive battle but that would ignore the offense's many contributions to keeping the numbers down.

Both teams had power plays that didn't produce a goal. lindenwood broke through on the pp with a shot that hit traffic out front bounced up and over the goalie. .

Odd I typed words between those periods and the page knows what they are but won't display them.
 
Re: Weekend Scores. 11/25 - 12/1

Syracuse was up 1-0 on UND after one.

After 2 Syracuse up 2-0. UND controlled play most of the period despite being outshot. Didn't create any good scoring chances until Syracuse scored their second goal. Good execution by Syracuse to score after really bad turnover by UND behind their own goal line.

After that UND had some decent chances but couldn't put it in.

Defensive breakdown by Quinnipiac leads to breakaway goal by Merrimack.

Tied 1-1 with 6:30 to play in the game.

SOG 38-11 Qunni
 
Re: Weekend Scores. 11/25 - 12/1

Quinni-Merrimack going to OT

Shoot out if needed after 5 minutes because of Nutmeg Classic tourney game.

Syracuse ENG to win 3-0.
 
Re: Weekend Scores. 11/25 - 12/1

Merrimack too many men on ice with 1:30 left in OT
Bobcats apply ton of pressure on PP but cannot score.

Merrimack 1- Quinnipiac 1 final. (SOG 44-12)

Nutmeg Classic shootout won by Merrimack 2-0.
 
If Haaavad and Cornell can pull huge upsets it will be a sweep of the WCHA by eastern teams today. I don't see those two upsets happening but I also didn't think Syracuse would beat UND either. Neither team could get to 20 shots on goal. 3 goals on just 16 shots for Syracuse. If you think that's good, Lindenwood scored 5 goals on only 18 shots against Mankato! Did Mankato have their goalies facing the right direction? Maybe the WCHA had too much turkey yesterday and they're still sleepy.

I wish Lexie Shaw had played goal like that last week.

Lexie Shaw had no chance on the first goal, little chance on the second, and the third was empty net. She wasn't UND's problem.

A couple were soft. One was particularly bad as the goalie did not keep a skate against the post and it was an easy push in from the side. A couple were just flukes. The 1st goal hit a bunch of people out front & popped up and over the minder.

I guess we're just back to North Dakota having the highest variance in its performances of any team in the country.

Yeah, the F-Hawks are a hard-to-figure bunch. I do think that Syracuse looked pretty good and I think the Orange are better than their record. The WCHA has a bunch of teams that are in trouble once they fall behind. Depending on how UMD develops, it may just be Wisconsin and 7 other teams to fill out the league.
 
Re: Weekend Scores. 11/25 - 12/1

Bobbie Mo and Clarkson in OT
And now the skills competition to decide it
Clarkson wins shootout 2-1 in 5 rounds and game 4-3.
