Re: Union College: 2016-2017
Oh Dutchman.. So many good points in there and then you kinda ruin it with the "embarrassment" line..
A team that has secured it's spot in the NCAA final field vs one who many considered on the bubble,
A team with everything to play for is desperate and yet, in spite of that and the extra ncaa incentive only lead 2 to 1 till late. and having gotten
more power play opportunities (4 to 2) - two on questionable calls (how is getting pushed into the goalie your fault? or having the man you are checking grab your stick your fault?).
That my friend is hardly an embarrassment - at least to anyone not wearing stripes? (note for Harvard the penalties went the other way and even Cornell couldn't deal with it)
The Union men didn't quit nor did they play as bad as the score would have one believe..
They exceeded everyone's expectations and returned excitement to Union hockey.. I salute them !!
Now take it to those cats in blue... Go U...
