Reading through this game thread was about as frustrating as watching the game itself.  Comment after comment ripping the players, particularly the defense and goalie.  Guess what - Cuse had FOUR count 'em 4 goals in the first half.  And...they had only 4 goals at the end of the 3rd quarter.  
How many games do you win with 4 goals through 3 quarters??

I'm sick and tired of hearing about the defense and goalie when the offense was absolutely horrific. I honestly don't know how Porter and the D could keep going out there to face shot after shot while the O couldn't do anything.  And the D and Porter had to face more shots thanks to dumb penalties - Georgetown got 3 extra man goals, Cuse zero.  Gee - the defense and goalie had to add 3 EMO goals against to their stats.  And Porter had 15 saves in a game where he and the D were under constant pressure.  And face-offs were 50/50.

So let's put this one in perspective - 4 goals by our offence in 3 quarters!!  And I don't really believe the attacks and middies should take the heat for this - we have too much talent on offense - the blame is on the coaches and March in particular.

The seniors on this team had to fight through so much this season.  Porter, Rehfuss, Trimboli and Dearth were warriors.  I refuse to believe that the players are responsible for any of the significant problems.  These seniors will be tough to replace but I'm sure they won't be sorry to see the end of stupid comments about them by bitter, frustrated fans.

Anyone with any intelligence should recognize that coaching is THE problem here.
