CLARKSON versus princeton

[Goldie Knight]

Well, we hope for better results today against the tigers.

I just tuned into the live broadcast, and Bob announced that Kyle McNulty will be the goaltender.

TROUNCE THE TIGERS, CLARKSON GOLDEN KNIGHTS

[Goldie Knight]

Nick Dodge takes the opening faceoff for Clarkson, and we are underway.

[Goldie Knight]

Clarkson hooking call on Tyrell Mason.

The referee is Dave Hansen.....the brother of the other referee?

Princeton goes on the power play.

And the first penalty of the game is over....with no princeton damage done.

[Goldie Knight]

Some good shots by Clarkson, but no score yet.

David Cayer and a PU player receive matching minors....so the teams are playing four on four.

[Goldie Knight]

Shawn Weller just missed scoring, as Shawn creates a lot of confusion in front of the net for Clarkson.

Neither Jeremiah Crowe nor Steve Zalewski are playing this first period.

princeton just scored....darn it. One PU player went in with the puck, followed by a couple of trailers. It was one of those trailers who put the puck in the net, after Kyle made the initial save.

CLARKSON.....0 PU....1

[Goldie Knight]

David Cayer took a shot.

10:52 remain in Period 1

Princeton nearly scored again as their player collided with Kyle by accident.

[Goldie Knight]

Kyle made a great save on a PU breakaway.

Shawn Weller and Matt Beca worked the puck well, but they could not get a good shot on goal.

Clarkson has much more offensive power today than they did last knight.

Loose puck in front of the net, but PU takes it away.

5:15 remain in the first period.

Clarkson is behind by one goal :mad:

[Goldie Knight]

Finally, PU is called for a hooking penalty.

LET'S GO TECHERS....SCORE EARLY. SCORE OFTEN.

A shot by Nick Dodge rattled off the PU cross bar, but not into the net.

Clarkson's first power play is doomed.

[Goldie Knight]

Period 1 ends with PU leading Clarkson 1 to 0.

Shots 8 ~ 7 in PU's favor.

[Goldie Knight]

Scores after one period.......

Quinnipiac 2.....SLU.....1

Harvard 1......Colgate....1

Clarkson has played hard during this first period, even though they seem to be fighting the puck a little bit. According to Josh, the Golden Knights are playing better than they did last knight against the "Q"

LET'S GO CLARKSON......SCORE EARLY.....SCORE OFTEN.....

[Goldie Knight]

I hear the big whistle announcing the Golden Knights are on the ice for the second period.

Four penalties were called during Period 1.

Period 2 is underway.

Oh my, a wrist shot by princeton, and they just scored their second goal.

princeton....2......CLARKSON 0

[Goldie Knight]

Steve Zalewski and Jeremiah Crowe are back playing this period.

Matt Curley is hit by an elbow to the jaw......no call by referee hansen.

What it is about those hansen brothers? They need a new occupation.

[Goldie Knight]

A lot of hits are being thrown by both sides. The players just don't know what will be called. Consistency is the key....few ECAC officials have that characteristic.


David Cayer passes to Mike Sullivan for CLARKSON'S FIRST GOAL.....way to go guys....an assist also goes to Captain Nick Dodge.

CLARKSON.....1 princeton...2

[Goldie Knight]

PU sends a player to the sin bin for hooking.

Clarkson's second power play opportunity.

Clarkson exerts good pressure.

Clarkson has good patience, but few bounces go their way.

Power play ends.

[Goldie Knight]

Shawn Weller had a good rush....but to no avail.

Matt Curley is back in the lineup.

Adam Bellows is playing well.

Ten minutes remain in Period 2.

[Goldie Knight]

NO, NO, NO.....

PU has a two on one break, and they score.

Princeton....3......CLARKSON....1

[Goldie Knight]

Finally, a boarding call against princeton.

Clarkson is really struggling on the offense trying to get into the zone.

Nick Dodge leaves the game after being hit.

Tigers are doing a great job of stopping CU passes.

Adam Bellows gets a shot on goal.

Power play is over for Clarkson.

[Goldie Knight]

Kyle McNulty made two great saves.

Clarkson does not have a spark tonight.

Period 2 ends with PU leading CLARKSON 3 ~ 1.

[Goldie Knight]

As Period 3 begins, Clarkson needs to score. Josh thinks the Golden Knights are fighting the puck toknight. Clarkson also needs to have better execution.
I think Bob said Princeton has not won a game this year......goodness, let's hope that string of losses continues. Having confidence plays a huge role in determining how a team does....right now, the Golden Knights don't seem to have a lot of confidence in themselves.

KNOW NO LIMITS....CLARSKON GOLDEN KNIGHTS.

[Goldie Knight]

The puck seems to be sticking in the water. Neither team benefits from this.

High sticking penalty call against princeton.

Clarkson power play.....

One of the PU players stopped the puck from going into the princeton net.

Someone covered the puck in the crease.....but no call against princeton.

[Goldie Knight]

The Clarkson power play did not get good quality shots.

14:12 remain in Period 3.

What is wrong with the Golden Knights?

[Goldie Knight]

Finally Clarkson has some pressure on the princeton goalie.

The puck bounced around the goal net, and at long last.....

CLARKSON SCORES ITS SECOND GOAL....MATT BECA FROM SHAWN WELLER AND STEVE ZALEWSKI.

CLARKSON....2.......princeton....3

Clarkson had great sustained pressure before scoring.

POUR ON THE POWER, CLARKSON GOLDEN KNIGHTS.

[Goldie Knight]

When you are trying to get things going for your team, the reward is a goal.

11:04 remain in the third period.

[Goldie Knight]

Shots.....PU 20......CLARKSON 17

Not very many, is it?

Matt Beca just missed the goal post.

3:47 remain in Period 3.

The end is near.....Shawn Weller was called for roughing. Both Bob and Josh felt the penalty calls against Clarkson near the end of the game were filled with inconsistency.

[Goldie Knight]

Clarkson is zero for five on their power play toknight.

GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE.
