Plattsburgh State Hockey 2016-17 - Bob's Head Coach Season 28

[CARDS_rule_the_Burgh]

I am with ya,I'll be coming from just north of NYC about 5 hr drive,and I dont want to hear the wife the whole trip complaining about the weather . , will have to wait and see,but I am coming no matter what,just bought the new Escalade so if it snows I'll put it thru its paces.

I'll be in Cortland the night before, so weather doesn't scare me too much in terms of getting TO the game... it's the getting home that couldbe tricky. Want to make it home in time to see my Patriots in the Super Bowl

They got good goaltending this weekend, which will always give them a chance. The defense still makes mistakes, but it seems that those were cut down on this weekend too. Less trips to the penalty box. All adds up to a four point weekend. Maybe something clicked after that disaster Saturday night in Morrisville. I have been predicting they'd finish fourth in the conference and that's looking about right.

Couldn't agree more. I don't know where this Brady has been, but his feet were quick. Had great vision. Rebound control was better.

Having said that, let's see what happens over the next 5. With all due respect to Buffalo State and Fredonia, they're not the offensive talent of Oswego and Geneseo.

The defense is still making too many errors that will be exploited by talented teams. Improvement tho, so that is a positive.

Penalties were better....still dumbfounded on Engvalls boarding call Saturday. ... 2 minutes for being big? Power play is still anemic.

Baby steps I guess....

I have seen Waterstreet 6'5" 235lbs get a bunch of those type penalties over the past 4 yrs, the refs dont have the skill to lay off those calls,they see BIG player and a BIG hit and the arm goes up

Agree on absolutely all of this. Brady's best saves this weekend seemed to be giveaways right in front of his net. Power play was even anemic 5 on 3. They don't move to create space for open shots (hence lots of blocked shots).

Finally, I missed what Engvall did wrong too. The hit didn't seem any worse than what happens when a 6'7" person hits someone at least 5 inches shorter.

BTW, Engvall's play has improved greatly over the sesaon too. I look forward to seeing him going forward as well.

Thing is, they seemed to know what boarding is because they correctly called it on Plattsburgh earlier in the game when a Plattsburgh player left his feet to deliver a hit along the boards. Nothing about the Engvall hit seemed illegal.

5 whole hours, I'm making the 25 hour drive from Colorado for the game with my wife and 7 month old son, if she complains bring this up. I haven't missed a whiteout game since 2009, I moved to Colorado in 2012.

BTW thanks for the tickets 2 years ago.

I'll be at both Cortland and Oswego as well. However, I only live a half hour from Cortland and 40 minutes from Oswego so I guess I'll be fine! Are we supposed to get a lot of snow Saturday night?

Lake Effect advisories for Jefferson, Lewis and Oswego counties until this cold snap ends. That cold air fueled by high winds over warm Lake Ontario...you know what can happen. Narrow bands of snow one place 1 minute and somewhere else ten minutes later.

WOW I'm still coming and I am bringing Norton

We have been watching it closely but forecast seems to have gotten worse. We were planning on Cortland Friday but not sure if we will attempt Oswego with that forecast. Will wait until tomorrow to cancel reservations. Just hoping for better news😥 Have had tickets since October. There will surely be a lot of disappointment in this house. Audio just doesn't do it for us! Safe travels to all.
