Good news I suppose it's still ourselves getting in our way for the most part. There were a few times were it looked like their guys were standing still in open ice compared to our speed.RIT Tigers

Not sure if the team took the Grifs lightly after their showing last week, but that was disappointing. Rotolo gave them a chance to pull it out with some good saves.
Typically the team follows up a clunker like this with a good game - hopefully that will be the case again tonight.2006-07 Atlantic Hockey Champions!

1 goal all weekend. Do these Tigers think they are God's gift to the world? Do they think other teams will bow down to them? Get off your high horse RIT. Play like you want to win.R I T HOCKEY

Tonight was certainly a better effort than yesterday. Their goalie was simply inhuman both nights though, and that's an understatement.
That being said though, almost all of our (many) shots were from the perimeter. We got nothing down low until the final sequences.
Still one of those eye-gougingly frustrating weekends though, and next week at Air Force won't be any easier.RIT Tigers

I was at the Friday night game in Buffalo and their goalie was unreal. He's the sole reason Canisius had a 4 pt weekend, RIT had plenty of quality shots, he just had an equal amount of quality saves.

Stay the course, 1000 points of light...etc. It's a long season, let's see where it goes.
Sucks to lose two but these things, they do happen!
Makes that Bentley sweep even more important.RIT Tigers

Aiden Girduckis, brother of Abbot, had committed to Robert Morris. Looks like we'll have a good old fashioned sibling rivalry...RIT Tigers

Yes, Williams played well, but RIT didn't truly test him until the end. Canisius (like UConn) figured out that packing the defense into the middle of the zone and forcing all shots to come unscreened from an angle out on the perimeter frustrates the Tigers and they don't find a way to crack through until it's too late. Some blame on the Tigers, some kudos to Canisius. The Griffs got far more legitimate scoring chances (non 6-on-5) with far fewer shots on Saturday, and it sounds from the radio that the same had happened on Friday.Can't we all just get along?
Always remember... This is just a game we're talking about here. Let's not take it all too seriously.

Upfront the Tigers are just not physical enough right now. We need a Skirving, McMullen, Mikowski, Girduckis, or Peacock to win a battle infront of the net and get a tip in or a rebound goal. One thing that has annoyed me for years at RIT is all the big men we get that are all most too nice. Adam Hartley was a prime example, I loved how hard he competed and he was a great kid. But sometimes I just wanted to see him run someone over on the ice in the worst way and just never seem to happen. If the Tigers do not find a way to start getting some tips off shots and some rebounds this is going to turn from a season with high expectations to very frustrating. In fact I think it already reached frustrating, I was able to not get overly mad at the RMU debacle because it was so early. The Bentley sweep seemed to show that was true, but this weekend is 2 BIG steps backwards. I'd Give Rotolo an A, everyone else including coaches D-, feeling generous. This teams needs someone other than Mike dropping some F bombs, which were very much heard during Friday's game. Time to stop believing your press clippings and go out there and earn it the good old fashion hard way...Course, That's Just my Opinion, I Could Be Wrong.
