Re: Vermont 2013-2014 Season Thread : The Golden Year
Friday:
Disappointed with the UVM effort on Friday night, they did not have the same speed, grit and physicality that has won them games this season; and little offensive sustainability except that first PP. Hoffman was good though, I will give him that. Best game I have seen from him in his UVM career thus far, hopefully the beginning of a new era.
Tough bounce to lose on that odd man rush, puck went off our skate and right to UML guy with open net. Better bounce and it ends tied. Tie would have been justice, neither team deserved it or played well.
Saturday:
Better effort but still not what they are capable of. Nice gift from Hellbuck, but then he made the save of the game keeping the Cats from taking 3 goal lead on that Puskarich backhand shot. Nice work by Cats and Hoffman holding down the fort at the end. a much needed win for pairwise to stay in contention.
Hoffman has elevated his game, I hope he can keep it there.
Gotta win the play in so we can have a rematch with UML and hopefully improve PWR a bit more. Apparently they are not re-seeding HE brackets if a lower seed wins a play in game? That does not seem right but that is how the brackets seem to be established. Anyone know anything different?
Overall a good weekend of hockey even if Cats did not play their best and UML got out of town with two points.
