[Earl_Leatherland]

CC 6 - Clarkson 1 FINAL

Altitude takes a huge affect in the third period. They really hung well through the first two periods. They were constantly rebounding after PP goals by Tigers. Almost had two directly after PP's by Tigers, but only come away with one.

The score doesn't seem to reflect how they performed. Rough time.



TOMORROW NIGHT.......ONE MORE TRY!!!

LET'S GO TECH!!!!

[Earl_Leatherland]

Walsh really sounds like the player of the game. A lot of times I heard his name with a big save.

Great job Mike!!!! 30 saves on 36 shots on goal

Single Goal for Knights: Latulippe from O'Flaherty

According to announcers:
1st bad penalty: Matt Poapst - Obstruction Slash?
Tigers able to score in this PP to make it 2-1. Clarkson really threatened immediately after this goal, but no answer.

End of 2nd Period 2-1 Tigers

2nd bad penalty: Latullipe - Unsportsmanlike - during a PP and loses the 5 on 4 advantage. Resulted in a 4 on 4 goal for the Tigers to make it 3-1. Announcers are speculating the penalty was due to loose chin strap or missing mouthpiece that the referee noticed during play.

SOG 36 to 18 Colorado Tigers

LET'S GO TECH!!! NO SWEEP FOR CC!!!!

GOOD KNIGHT!!!!
