Re: Arizona State Sun Devils 2016-17 -- Year Two!
Good game last night at Gila River Arena. Arizona State dropped a 4-3 contest to #18 Air Force. The Devils skated with the Falcons throughout and were done in by two goals allowed off bad turnovers. ASU got a nice boost having BU transfer Robbie Baillargeon in the lineup for the first time as a Sun Devil. But it was the freshmen, Tyler Busch and Brinson Pasichnuk that stood out. Both scored goals and appeared as good as any player on the ice. Levin started in goal, but was pulled midway in the second period for freshman Joey Daccord. Levin looked great at ND last weekend, but Daccord is at a different level. He has already been announced the starter for Sunday. ASU was whistled for 6 penalties, four in the second, which turned the momentum to Air Force. There was a nice crowd of just under 1,800, however, it looked empty playing in an NHL arena. But it was still a fun environment and was going head to head with the basketball "midnight madness" event happening at the same time across town on campus. The game Sunday will be on the Pac-12 Network. Hoping for a better result. Go Devils.
