Message: [QUOTE="ForCuseSake, post: 5082951, member: 266"] I wasn't able to watch that game live. The highlights showed the following: 0-1 Kol fell asleep on Williams and he buries an unmolested rip from left wing 0-2 McAdorey blows by Kol (he blows by everyone) and dunks it from the doorstep 0-3 Man down unit gives up a ~14 yard step down rip from up top 0-4 McAdorey beats Caccamo from the wing and cranks coming across the middle (Mark maybe could've saved it but McAdorey had his hands completely free with no contact) 0-5 Sloat SU LSM (37?) was slow to pick him up coming out of the box, took a bad angle on Sloat's dodge (perhaps expecting help or a switch) and Sloat unloads an overhand rip running full steam straight down the middle of the restraining box (no slide). 2-6 McAdorey left completely wide open on right wing for a 10 yard low to high crank (definite miscommunication as to who had slide responsibility between close D & SSDM) 2-7 O'Neil bounce shot as he's dodging on Dwan. Not bad defense, first shot Mark should've saved. 2-8 Williams man up goal from left GLE (low angle). Mark got a piece of the bouncer but it got through 2-9 Mitchell left wide open on the crease by Jake Spallina for an easy dunk from a McAdorey feed from X. As an ex-defenseman, I have a hard time saying 2 man up goals, 2 door step dunks, 3 wide open rips are Mark not seeing the ball well. McAdorey's goal to make it 0-4 used Caccamo as a slight screen but probably could've been saved. O'Neil's bounce shot to make it 2-7 should've been saved. Everything else was really poor defensive support. The first goal McAdorey scored on McCool was more of the same - he beats his guy and nobody slid as he got topside from inside 10 yards to score a low bouncer far post. Now if Mark were a first year goalie or young in his career, I could see a coach saying, "Not your fault and I'm not letting you get shell'd by crappy D." But Mark as a fifth year guy should've probably been given the full first half. [/QUOTE]
