Blight and Faulkner come in, drop pass to McKinvin, open net. Robbed by Mrazek.

Save of the night for Mrazek. Bob is stunned.

[Brett Gobe]

Union's first playoff win since 1994.... :eek: :mad: :mad:

[Ron]

Union penalty, hooking at 2:07. Clarkson PP

[coolhandtouc]

Would love to get one nice and early.

[Ron]

4 on 3 for 20 seconds... a couple shots as it expires to 5 on 4 for another 1:40...

Power play expires with a few shots, but not a lot of quality chances.

[Ron]

You know it. But right as ya say it the Knights are going on the penalty kill. (Arciero)

Union with a lot of pressure for the first thirty seconds of the PP. Five minutes gone in the first. Knights having problems clearing the puck. Union scores but the goal is waved off for a crease violation

[GoldenKnight08]

Union has goal disallowed for a man in the crease. About time Dell did something right

[Ron]

0-0

Clarkson kills off the Union PP (barely). PK came together at the end.

13:31 to go, Union takes a hooking penalty to save a breakaway attempt. Brief 4-4.

[coolhandtouc]

Lets see if we could use this as a momentum shift....and we go on the PP......LGT!!!!

[Ron]

Clarkson with 0 shots on goal so far eight minutes into the game. Sounds like they're just throwing it at the net and missing, ALOT.

Union kills the penalty then ices the puck. 10:43 left in the first.

[coolhandtouc]

seems like Union is keeping us to the perimeter........not letting us penetrate or get traffic in front..

[Sarah]

Thanks for keeping us updated ron since it seems brett is slipping on this ;)

[Ron]

Really sloppy stuff according to Bob as I throw my dinner on the stove.

Brekelmans barely misses the goal high as Clarkson is holding the zone.

8:40 left in the first.

Union leading SOG 4-3.

0-0

[Ron]

Seriously, where is that guy. He lives for this sort of stuff.

Weller and Dodge move it up for a good opportunity. Clarkson applying some pressure before Union can get it out.

A lot of hockey without a whistle right now as the 4th line comes out.

Icing called against Union with 6:07 left in the first.

[Ron]

Curley and Cayer putting some shots out there.

Union penalty with 5:11 in the first. Knights going on their 3rd PP!

[Sarah]

I dont know, maybe we should send out a search group soon if we don't hear from him! EEK! :p

[Ron]

Faulker takes a penalty, hitting after the whistle negating that PP. 4-4 for the next two minutes. Stupid penalty.

Looks like Weller and DiStefano are going off for matching minors. DiStefano probably for holding, Weller for roughing. (At least that's what it appears)

[Ron]

GOAL

Chris Breklemans deflection off the screen!

[GoldenKnight08]

BREKLEMANS GOAL!!!

[coolhandtouc]

YEEE !!!!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ron]

It appears the goal will be Faulkner with the tip from (Breklemans and Curley)

Faulkner with a lot of pressure. Blood in the water as Clarkson throwing shots and tips

[Ron]

Union on the PP (Faulkner, Holding)

Zalewski breaks up a big opportunity. Traylen loses the puck for a second, but Union scores. Less than 1:00 to go in the first.

1-1.

[Ron]

Brekelmans is credited with the goal.

Weller, Dodge, Clitsome line is getting dangerous.

1-1 at the end of the first period. Sudden death playoff hockey is where it's at!

[Ron]

Period will start 4 on 4 apparently?

0-0 Dartmouth and Yale.

If Clarkson wins and Yale wins then it's off to Harvard.
If Clarkson wins and Dartmouth wins then it's off to Cornell.

[Ron]

Period two begins. My dinner just got done, so I may be distracted, but I'll do my best ;)

Scuderi hits the post on a huuuge breakway.

[Goldie Knight]

Congratulations to Chris Brecklemans on his goal and to Matt Curley on his assist.

Score tied at 1 apiece.

Kenny Scuderi hit the post on a breakaway.....oh no.

[GoldenKnight08]

It's nice that Scuderri is playing.

[coolhandtouc]

Period two begins. My dinner just got done, so I may be distracted, but I'll do my best ;)

Scuderi hits the post on a huuuge breakway.



OK Ron, finish the grilled cheese and get back at it. :D

[Goldie Knight]

Yale and Dartmouth are still tied at zero.

Let's go Yale!

[Ron]

Union scores. 2-1

[Goldie Knight]

Kenny Scuderi was suited up for the warm ups last night, but his ankle was too sore to permit him to play. It was one of very few games that Kenny watched the game with his family.

Darn it--a turnover at the Union blueline allows Union to score.

Union 2

Clarkson 1

BOO

[coolhandtouc]

Lot of game left......but seeing how we don't like to play from behind...I am not happy.

All four members of the Clarkson Pep Band are slamming whatever they can. Big momentum swing, although it looks like Union will be going on the PP.

[coolhandtouc]

LET'S GO TECHERS.

4:10 left in Period 2

[Ron]

4:10 left in the 2nd. Lots of icing going on.

[Goldie Knight]

Dustin just made a great save, coming out about 10 feet to do so. He is playing very aggressive hockey toknight.

And he was soooo disappointed with Clarkson's loss last knight. :mad:

[Ron]

4 on 1 opportunity, but poor shot for Tech.

Another icing call against Clarkson. 3-2, 1:55 left in the 2nd.

[Goldie Knight]

Shall we begin Period 3

Remember, no goals for U (Union)

Union's power play is OVER

[Brett Gobe]

Hey everyone, just got in from an umpire's meeting. I'll be following along but not listening in so keep the updates coming.

LGT!

[Ron]

Heeeere we go.

Union opens up on the PP for 57 seconds. And the penalty is killed.

Lots of hockey, no whistles until Traylen covers with 17:29 left in the 3rd.

[Ron]

Gary Mikel breaks out 'UGE' as an adjective which is key.

Dodge putting pressure on Union's goalie with a couple opportunities.

4th line putting shots on looking solid.

Icing in Union.

[Goldie Knight]

16 MINUTES left in Period 3

Shawn Weller fed the puck to Nick Dodge, but to no avail.

[Brett Gobe]

Gary Mikel breaks out 'UGE' as an adjective which is key.

I think we're 5-0-1 when Uge makes and appearance.

[Ron]

Scramble in front of the Knights net. Cayer takes it all the way down for a shot. Traylen recovers his stick. Things are getting scrappy.

Matching Minors....

[Goldie Knight]

Clarkson seems to be putting a lot of pressure on the Union goaltender.

They are definitely shooting more on goal than they did the two previous knights.

Thank goodness, Kenny Scuderi is back toknight--a solid defenseman.

Matching penalties--Grant Clitsome and a union player.

[Ron]

Icing on Union with 13:01 left in the 3rd.

[Brett Gobe]

Arrrgh, late penalties...

[Ron]

Knights can't take advantage of a 3-2 short handed break.

Sullivan on a break-away, no call on the hooking, but then gets hooked again. Big big penalty. 4 on 4.

[GoldenKnight08]

Sullivan hooked, 63 seconds left on the Cayer penalty

[Goldie Knight]

David Cayer--penalty obstruction holding--too bad.

Jay drives it down the ice.

Even strength now and a whistle. 8:29 to go. 3-2 Knights.

[coolhandtouc]

Can't fall into the defensive shell...it killed us last nite.........must stay aggressive.

[Goldie Knight]

8:00 remain in Period 3

Every now and then, I cheer for the clock to move faster.

DUMBFOUND THE DUTCHMEN :)

[Goldie Knight]

7 MINUTES and counting....

no more goals for U (Union).

Chris Blight takes a shot on goal

while Mac Faulkner is driven into the Union net.

[Ron]

Blight and Faulkner go in for a two on one. Save by Union, then Faulkner gets hit after the save into the net. He's ok.

Sounds like the action is getting a little chippy as the refs are putting the whistle away.

[Goldie Knight]

It seems as if Clarkson is playing with much more determination toknight than either Friday or Saturday knights.

Clarkson has 33 shots on goal so far.

UPEND UNION--LET'S GO TECHERS.

Your fans will NEVER give up on you.

[Brett Gobe]

Not surprising. No love loss between these two teams.

[Ron]

33-24 SOG in favor of Clarkson.

Less than five minutes to go here. Penalty on Max Kolu, hit from behind. Haven't heard on the matching minors...

[Brett Gobe]

Another late penalty. Sheesh.

[Goldie Knight]

Max Kolu is called for a hit from behind :( We know Max wouldn't do that :)

Union power play begins with 5:02 left

[Ron]

4:22 to go in the period, 1:20 left in the PP.

Pace is beginning to get more frantic.

[Ron]

It's too bad the Clarkson coaches couldn't help the referees make appropriate calls :)

Clarkson trying to get one last push. But we're going to overtime for a third time!

Clarkson having issues getting it into the offensive zone. All Union so far in the 3rd. Brekelmans now hurt blocking the shot with apparently his face.

[Goldie Knight]

Chris Brecklemens blocked a shot. It appears that Union is playing well--too bad.

Nick Dodge has a great chance to score after stealing the puck.

[Brett Gobe]

The time doesn't really matter anyways.

[coolhandtouc]

I am with you goldie....I love the wellers game....however, I can't take another ot....gonna have a heart attack....second thought i'll have a beer.....maybe we will score. :D

[Sarah]

silly ron! LET'S GO TECH! :p

[Brett Gobe]

Have 2. :D

[Goldie Knight]

Dustin makes a good save, then there was a rebound which Dustin was able to finally find and cover up.

My husband tells me that Shawn Weller will probably get the Clarkson winning goal....so Shawn has several votes.

[coolhandtouc]

ok I 'll disappear........ :D

[Ron]

11:01 to go in the first overtime as Blight barely misses.

Kolu shoots, Union takes it back the other way, and then back the other way again.

Clarkson pressuring. Latulippe takes a big spear. He's not moving.

[Goldie Knight]

Jay was hit in the head and fell to the ice.

[Brett Gobe]

Penalty? I'm gonna guess no.

[Ron]

Latulippe is up and okay...

Clarkson's offense finally kicking. Blight puts one on net and a save by Union.

[Brett Gobe]

Gametracker has shots at 40-32 in our favor but 4-4 in the OT.

[Goldie Knight]

Mr. Cool,

Don't have any kind of attack. We need you to cheer the Golden Knights on to victory toknight. It is very nerve wracking to listen to the game, but I thought it was more so being in Schenectady in person Friday and Saturday knights.

BEAT UP THE DUTCHMEN :)

[Ron]

Cayer with a shot, no dice. Clarkson taking control of the neutral zone. Union finally breaks through and puts a couple on net.

And icing on Union.

[demock]

this gametracker thing is so far behind for me... still says 20:00 in OT. i do have the same info for shots though

[Goldie Knight]

7:28 remain

Face off in Union's territory.

Shawn hit the crossbar.....my goodness

[Ron]

Weller hits the bottom of the cross bar (TING!), Union goes the length of the ice for a chance.

Icing on Union.

[Brett Gobe]

Yeah, GT is spotty with the time, but the shots are usually spot on.

[Brett Gobe]

Getting closer. I think that's 2 posts and a crossbar on the weekend.

[Ron]

Union playing with fire ices the puck again with 6:09.

And then goes right off and does it again.

[Ron]

Dodge throws a bad one on. Union moving up the ice and Curley takes what sounds like an okay hooking penalty.

[Goldie Knight]

Icing call against Union again.

It's just a matter of time until the period is over.

Penalty on Matt Curly--hooking--oh dear.

[Brett Gobe]

Gotta stay tough here.

[demock]

[Ron]

5:10 to go in OT, 5 on 4....


Genovy clears....

[coolhandtouc]

[Goldie Knight]

Mac Faulkner working hard on the power play.

55 seconds left in Matt Curley's penalty.

Union calls a time out.

[Sarah]

LET'S GO TECH!!!

[Brett Gobe]

Smart move by the Union coaches. Good timeout for both sides. Clarkson PK needs to stay tough.

[Goldie Knight]

Face off in the neutral zone

Hi Eric and Alicia--how are you? I know you are cheering for the Golden Knights.

29 seconds remain in Matt's punishment

[Ron]

29 seconds left in the PK...

[Ron]

Icing on the Knights, but that means the PK is over. 3:03 to go in the 1st OT.

Icing against Union now with 2:27.

[Brett Gobe]

Ron, can you tell if we're still rolling 4 lines? Or is it just Faulkner Latulippe and Wellers lines out there?

[Ron]

2:05 to go in OT...

[Stemmer]

Just got home from an OT and two shoot out Peewee game. Saw the great news, now can someone put this game in a nutshell for me?

Great to win and advance to lynah but I doubt the red are worried about us....and that suits me just fine! But I bet Schafer will push the right buttons this week.

[Goldie Knight]

Good knight, Eric and Alicia--glad you could be here on the Roundtable with us. Yes, we were at Union for the Friday and Saturday knight games. One was great--the other was not.

Bob Ahlfeld is going to call his boss and ask for the day off tomorrow. Shouldn't we all do that after what we have endured this weekend?

For all those who voted for Shawn Weller to score the winning goal, including my husband, congratulations on your excellent choice. Both teams must have played their hearts out this weekend, but Clarkson has bigger, harder working hearts.

FINAL SCORE CLARKSON 4 union 3

OUR KNIGHTS ARE AWESOME, AND THEN SOME :)

[Muskieman]

Wow, what a game and series. Congrats to Clarkson and good luck in Ithaca.

BTW, Union is now 2-16-0 all-time in ECAC playoff games. That's an "impressive" 11.1 winning %. The soon-to-be retired, misguided, and traitor named Roger Hull must be heartbroken and disappointed that his team has fallen far short of his 40% goal.. I am delighted that he will be getting a retirement cake with 11.1 candles on it, so he can send a photo of it to his best buddy, John McCardell.

Go NC teams next weekend.

Great to win and advance to lynah but I doubt the red are worried about us....and that suits me just fine! But I bet Schafer will push the right buttons this week.

Yeah, Rich, I'm afraid you're right -- our success of last year will make it doubly tough this year.
:rolleyes:

[Stemmer]

Bill,

The bigger the challenge, the sweeter the victory will taste!

Here's the story I just got in my email. Thi sguy tries hard but he's not much of a sportswriter.

Hate to be critical but I cover HS sports for my local paper, part time and it helps to know the "lingo" of the sport!

[TROMP]

I just returned home from the game. :D Wow, what a finish. What a weekend. Quite a few of us started to think about a 2nd OT. What a feeling to see that puck hit the back of the net!

We had very loyal fans at the game this weekend, including two pep band members that stayed for Game #3. This is my first time watching Clarkson play three knights in a row. Time to let the voice recover..

[MikeR]

My husband tells me that Shawn Weller will probably get the Clarkson winning goal....so Shawn has several votes.

Can your husband pick some lottery numbers for me? ;) :D

LGT!!

Mike,

If David possessed that kind of extra sensory perception when it came to choosing lottery numbers, yes, he would be very happy to help you out with the lottery. Unfortunately, he wins very little. When I asked him who his choice would be for scoring Clarkson's winning goal, he automatically said Shawn Weller. He probably made that selection because we have watched Shawn play all year, and we realized his productivity had not reached anywhere near his potential.

In the post-game interview with Gary Mikel and George Roll, George commented that Shawn had played well in every single game. George also gave credit to Union for working so hard. George felt this third game was the one we should have won because Clarkson played so hard. From what Bob said, the Golden Knights were more aggressive in the third game. In addition, George credited Dustin with making some great saves to keep us in the game.

ON TO ITHACA AND MORE DILIGENT WORK BY THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS.

Yes, I agree, but you have to take into consideration that this story hit the internet about 15 minutes after the game was over, so he was under some time pressure!!
