    Sooooo, no one is interested in the game tonight? Awesome! Follow the trail of apathy to the Coffin tonight...

      Good to see Matt step up tonight for his first win; I only caught the last period on the radio after getting out of class, but sounded like a really good game. Cats have clawed their way to 15th in the PWR, facing three teams ahead of them to begin the new year. Go Cats!

        UNH got outshot tonight, and badly in the third period. Sounds as though opportunistic goals by DeSimone (from Moses) on the shorthand, Butler with 59 seconds left in the second, and Butler with a dagger goal late in the third, PLUS some big time saves from DiGirolamo, saved the day. Great way to go into the break. Just hope they don't lose their edge before the Cornell game.

          PC was the much better team tonight in the first and third periods. UNH got some interesting goals in the second period and some breaks with goals by PC waved off by the officials.

          The gap between PC and UNH is not that far at all.

            Actually, looks like the gap is about 13 points, at the break.

            Interestingly enough, Cornell is ranked in the Top 10 in the USA Today poll, but PWR, which has been the most accurate predictor of the field the last 4-5yrs at least, has Cornell at 18. Both the Coaches poll and the USA Today poll have them at 5. Quite the contrast.

              The gap in talent...typical UNH fan!!!

              UNH needs a goalie bad b/c the kid that was in net tonight wasn't good at all and was lucky he didn't give up 5-6 goals. Some very interesting decisions tonight by the officials that waved off a PC goal when a UNH player knocked a PC player into the goalie.

                Typical UNH fan? I love when anyone pulls that out. You're obviously not a 'typical' Frirs fan, since you were (presumably) sober enough to type that up last night..

                Strangely, UNH's 'not good at all' goalie was their back up who hadn't started a game all year, and still outdueled Beaudry (who is a very solid goaltender).

                There were no 'interesting' decisions, there were correct decisions (including allowing the goal in the third to make it 4-3), with hockey east getting video replay its helpful to see.

                UNH figured a way around PC's boring trap in the 2nd period, and, as they have done most of the year, dominated the 2nd period (I believe they've scored 30 2nd period goals, and 28 in the first and 3rd combined) and forced PC to have to open it up. PC, to give them credit played hard in the third period, and had UNH on their heels a bit, but Dig's actually stood tall and made some great saves. The 2nd period showed the talent gap b/w these two teams, as PC was forced to take a lot of penalties, not being able to keep up with UNH's speedy forwards (only BC, if anyone, has a faster team up front in hockey east). If UNH's power play weren't so mediocre, the game would have been put away in the 2nd period, but PC played a great 3rd period, and came close to tying it.

                Good luck to PC the rest of the way, but, as was said, with UNH still improving, and being a very young team, they are still 13 points ahead of PC (and have a road win in hand in a traditionally tough place for them to play).

                  Zlax.. so if UNH needs a goalie, because UNH's back-up, who hasn't played more than 20 minutes for more than a yr, gave up 3 goals and PC's starter gave up 4...on 7 fewer shots.. hmm? Talent gap perhaps?

                  Anyway.. when PC does play well, they are a real wildcard in HE. Mr. Army had a great reputation coming in, but team consistency has been inconsistent. Hot, cold etc.. as a fan of PC, what do you attribute that too? Talent gap?

                      Goals plural? I recall one... and it was a legit "man in the crease" call.

                        So, UNH didn't earn the win?? Those gosh-darn refs ruined it? Count your lucky stars that the UNH PP had a crappy night or the final score would have been worse. Glad to see that the goons are back in full force at PC.

                          Watching in person, I thought the third period was more a matter of UNH easing up than of PC playing harder. After PC's second goal, UNH turned it on again, scored to make it a two goal lead. Of course, then they went back into coasting mode...

                            I'm amazed you're defending the refs after the insanely awful calls they made against the Kitties all night. There were at least two where a PC player dove and the twin idiots never picked up on it. They didn't do the SMT's any favors last night, trust me.
