Union College: 2017-2018

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

A very nice and convincing win. Good discipline on the ice, good communication, good speed, good passes, lots of people able to contribute in offense and defense, and good goaltending (barely any rebounds, the puck just seemed to be sticking to Hanson).
A good reference point for this season IMO.

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

All the freshmen have scored except for Brierly who has not played. All the active players except for Light, Burton and Newhouse have scored. Dufour has not played. Rinaldi and Brown are worthy of any scoring line. Adams and Foo have not yet really kicked in but will. I like Brendon Taylor. He is alwasy working to set himself up around the crease to pot the garbage. In 2014 against Minnesota 7 different players scored. We just have to continue developing 4 scoring lines. Next up - two against the Fighting Sioux

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

With the youngsters getting their sea legs, the primacy of Union coaching is beginning to emerge. Though there is a lot of hockey to be played, the Dutchmen look to be reckoned with. A strong showing in Grand Forks would really say something.

Union recruit Nicolas Petruolo (2019-20) appears on the latest 2018 NHL Draft Watch List from NHL Central Scouting. He's pegged as possible 4th-6th rounder.

Niagara is not doing that bad. I wonder if they can knock off Cornell tonight?
http://www.espn.com/watch/_/id/32025...rnell-m-hockey
Niagara up 1-0 whoops tied up 1-1
Game over ... Niagara led just about all the way but a few quick goals by Cornell. Note ... the home refs in Ithaca are worthy of at least two goals. Playing in Elynah is a joke. I wonder how much Cornell pays the refs. Cornell Sucks !!!

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

Our backup goaltender beat their backup goaltender. Krupski was unbelievable. Absolutely Unbelievable !!!!

I will never say anything negative about Kupski again as long as I live. That is a national championship team North Dakota has. Someone has taught Kolias how to shot ... watch out ECAC !!! He was the fastest skater on the ice. Best game Light has played as a Dutchman. On defense he made his presence felt. He cleared the crease. On offense he hit the pipe twice. Great defensive play. Taylor was outstanding. Scarfo was outrstanding. Maier cleared the crease. Announcers talked about depth of Sioux. We are not doing so bad ourselves.

The TV announcers were the best I have ever heard in College hockey. They knew us extremely well. They did their homework. I wish we had announcers and cheerleaders like North Dakota.

IMO The Fighting Sioux are the best team we have faced this year. I don't know how we won. We gave up 10 lbs per man as we are the (weight) 6 smallest team in College hockey and NDU is the 6 largest.

The NDU coach does not have much class. Very disappointed. I have no idea how Bennett has turned this band of no-name freshmen and underperforming sophomores into what they are becoming. Many Kudos. We are beginning to seriously click. We are having an outstanding November. One more to go.

They are going to try and scalp us tomorrow !!!

Good work Dutchmen !!!!

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

The Dutchmen came out flying and somehow managed to hang on after the first period. I was in disbelief as the high quality ND chances quickly disappeared with a well timed poke check or stick lift. Definitely agree with you Dutchman that the announcers were outstanding. The production quality sometimes had me forgetting that it was a college hockey game. Looking forward to tomorrow's contest. Go U!

I'll give it to Union they took advantage of some bad plays and played good D too hold on. We finally had a game were the refs didn't try take over the game and it was a good one! That Union goalie had a hell of a game... hopefully he doesn't tomorrow

Re: Union College: 2017-2018

we only have three seniors on the ice, brassard, scarfo and light and they are stepping up to provide leadership for this very young team.
