[scottcomstock]

[nickg4]

Sounds as though the Knights are playing uninspired and very undisciplined. Hopefully the third period is better.

http://www.clarkson.edu/~gamachna/index2.htm

[Earl_Leatherland]

sirizensky finally hits somebody. Bartell is saying that Clarkson should just pack their bags and go home. SLU is riding a wave and Clarkson is doing absolutely nothing.

Dilauro through center. Lush puts some pressure on.

Clarkson has fallen apart.

Penalty against Reid.

6-2 Saints on top.

[Earl_Leatherland]

thank goodness. end of the 2nd period.

I hope Clarkson dresses some hockey players for the third period.

[scottcomstock]

Morris -- LIGHT A FIRE UNDER THESE GUYS, PLEASE!

[Earl_Leatherland]

6-2 for SLU.
SLU scores 6 second period goals.

Overall a great game for SLU. Officiating is very good. Clarkson is losing the game because, in Bartells opinion, they are scared as heck. We all know what they wanted to say. They have taken stupid penalties and now it appears they are afraid to hit anyone. Defense is just giving the puck up.

Clarkson had 3 chances in the 1st and 2nd period and is just not finshiing the task. Clarkson is squandering their chances. This is not the second half Clarkson team that we know. Clarkson is playing very intimidated.

Clarkson has given up 6 goals in 2nd and 5 in a row. Mattson has the last 2 goals against and Walsh has the other 4.

[Earl_Leatherland]

Mattson makes 9 saves for 16 total of the game.

2 more shots on McKenna and big saves by McKenna. Knight take it away again make another shot on mckenna. Now another save by mckenna. Not outstanding shots, but mckenna is definitely stonewalling

[Earl_Leatherland]

mckenna makes another save off the faceoff. Clarkson is already up to 7 shots in the third. They need to throw everything now.

Poapst being held on the net and no penalty.

[Earl_Leatherland]

Goals for Clarkson

1st Jones-Line-Latullippe
Clarkson - outshot 17-8 in first

Walsh doing good, but getting no help. 17-8 in first period, ouch!!

Poapst penalty

2nd O'Flaherty

then Evans takes penalty 8 seconds after goal and SLU scored 10 seconds into the PP.

I keep losing feed, so I might miss some details. Now, going back and forth as to why Walsh was pulled.

SLU was all over the Knights in the end of the first and throughout the entire 2nd period. Clarkson finally played their game in the third period. Announcers predict Clarkson and SLU meeting in the playoffs. They will be 4-5 or 3-6 competing for a spot. Can you imagine a 3 game playoff at either Clarkson or SLU. How hard will that ticket be to get?

SLU scores 5 unanswered goals in 2nd period.

Clarkson's third
3rd - Line-O'F-Latullippe
Line, oneof the only remaining '99 team ECAC champions

Clarkson's fourth 7:24 to go in third
4th - Manzano-Poapst(100 career points)

Clarkson's fifth
5th - Lush-Jones-Poapst

43 saves for Clarkson all together.

Missed SLU's saves for McKenna. SLU now tied for 8th with Brown. Clarkson is still clinging to 4th and the home ice.

Good Knight. Nice job Knights.
