Cornell Game Thread...

Great 1st half, a few issues with turnovers and some missed opportunities on O but probably one our best halves of the season considering how good Cornell is. Good news is that Cornell defensively has to be getting worn out and there early sliding so we should continue to get some good looks from outside. On the downside we really should be up another 2-3 goals. Missed some point blank looks and Ierlan stole a couple, that last one especially. Key for the 2nd half is the offense. Cornell is going to score there to good not to but we need to get at least 5-6 goals in the 2nd half.
 
Defense has been lights out, particularly in the 6v6.
Offense needs to start hitting more of these opportunities with the amount of possession advantage they've had.
Wings gotta help Phaup out more, if the draw becomes a scrum he's getting roughed up a lot.
No one can stay with Curry, whenever he has a shortie on him he should be going.
 
Syracuse may have found their groove. They are getting better each week. I like this in April heading into May. We will know better after the ACC tourney.

Can only comment on the five minutes or so that I watched in the half. Overall, D looked good. O was moving the ball and more aggressive. Net result, +4 at the half with momentum when they come back.

Agreed need more out of Curry and Trimbo. Both just missed on a couple of looks in the 1st half. A bit worrisome were not up 6 goals + with all the possessions.
 
Dang we should honestly be up by more. It's a shame we aren't and it hopefully won't come back to haunt us. Fortunately right now our offense looks more effective than theirs even without the possession disparity due faceoffs. Just gotta stop with the unforced turnovers which have lead to 2 of their goals.
 
HT 7-3. Feels as if it should be 9-3 or 10-3: 2 pipes and a not-so-wise shot by Helmer on the break.

Oh well, at least it's not 3-11 (ND).

LGO!!!

Agreed feels like they should have 9-10 on the board. Like you mentioned some bad shot selection (although I think they hit 3-4 pipes) and Irelan stole a couple that half.

Dumb needless slide leads to open shot and goal.

Why, Kennedy!?!!
