No mention of the animosity at the end of the game.
There was no hand shake and I was wondering if that was because this was a series, abd they only shake hands at the conclusion of the series or if Colgate decided they did not want to shake hands.
The engineers seemed to be loitering around center ice waiting for them as the left the ice.
This will be a very tough game tonight. Colgate was not happy with us at the end of the game. There was some very hard hits from both sides, and Kennedy had some words with the Colgate bench as the horn sounded to end the game.
Could be fireworks tonight.

Nice to be up with the first win of the series. Winning the last game of a series is always a battle. We will have to be at our best tonight early and of course avoid the penalty box. The officials this year have shown not the slightest hesitation to put teams down 2 men for long stretches. We will be facing a desperate Colgate team and need to make sure we do not give them a glimmer of hope early. The way we started yesterday-is the way we need to come out in every game. This time though, we cannot sit back and coast with the lead. The ECAC is too balanced and tough to take anything for granted. Let's Go Red!!

Who proofreads these things? Virtually every time there are spelling mistakes and other inconsistencies. But the quotes from the players were nice to see.

Coach has said in the past that if it is a 2 game series or playoffs he usually talks with the other coach and they agree on handshakes after the series ends. The scuffle at the end of the game certainly sets up a interesting dynamic to tonights game. Tie that in with colgate having its back against the wall and this will be a tough tough game.

Thanks for the explanation. You are right about a tough tough game tonight.
Last night I saw some of the hardest hitting in a game that I have seen in years. And now the teams don't like each other.
Let the battle begin.

They usually don't shake hands until the last game of the series is over. That's how it has been in previous years, and how it is in most other leagues. The only team that doesn't shake hands after 1 game affairs is Cornell (08-09).

How was the officiating ?

The handshake with Cornell incident was a result of I believe Erik Burgdoerfer slamming the a Cornell player into the boards with less than 5 seconds to play. This caused Cornell to crowd around the injured player and skate off without handshakes. I believe a suspension was issued to Burgdoerfer after this.

How was the officiating ?

Each team had its 5 on 3 chances, plenty of power plays and some questionable (by other peoples standards) calls both ways...so in a nutshell, the usual ECAC officiating crew.
