Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 2018-19 - Let's shuffle off to Buffalo
Painful tie to Union! Not beating the teams we would be expected to beat has become the norm recently. Loss of Brandon showed up tonight..both teams played to a draw. Little leadership on the ice tonight as they adjust to the new rotation, but someone has to step up. Certainly not the hot team headed to post season....passing was off, the whole game seemed off.... even the ice seemed off! Get good night sleep, tomorrow is another game....

Question: who can, will or is stepping up into Brandon's role?
The Freshman, as good as they are and as much as I love them appeared over-matched last night, which is scary. Since Brandon's injury, a noteworthy inflection point, they played like an ECAC 8th place team versus the 1st half, where they played as a 1st or 2nd place team which ranked them in the top 5 nationally (which I concur doesn't mean that much).
The balance of Seniors with big ice time experience and young guns is off and needs the Team Captains & Seniors to have a closed door meeting...early un the season we spoke of 3.5 very competitive lines...I saw 1.5 maybe 2 last night....
One of their big guns is down and we still do not know how painful that is for the teammates but it took the wind out of the team and they need some coaching, mentoring and collegial leadership to bring them up to a mental level they had with Brandon in the rotation and I do not know who that player or players are, but I am confident will happen because this is a very, very, very good hockey team and hockey program and adversity is part of this game.

Whew! Great win!
I know we outshot them tonight, but it feels like Shortridge is covering up a lot of problems right now. He's just playing out of his mind. We didn't give up a lot of shots, but it felt like everything we allowed was a Grade A.
Definitely some things to clean up, but I'll never complain about a three-point road weekend.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 2018-19 - Let's shuffle off to Buffalo
Not ready to hit the panic button but something seems amiss, and I think it's more than the loss of Fortunato. Shiplo has stepped up to fill the hole on D, and brings his offensive prowess to the back end.
Offensively there seemed to be a lot of freelancing out there this weekend instead of the cohesive play earlier in the season. Shot totals remain high but the grade A chances seem few and far between. Simply put, they're not finishing and that could be problematic if not corrected.
With 4 games left, every point is critical. While we're likely safe from a pairwise perspective, finishing the season strong and taking momentum into the ECAC's is important.Quinnipiac Bobcats

You're right, we're likely in the tournament. But let's see if we can't grab a 1 seed. That's got to be the goal now.Last edited by ZYanksRule; 02-17-2019, 02:10 PM.

Originally posted by ZYanksRule View PostWe have Clarkson, SLU, at Brown, at Yale left. Obviously SLU has to be a win. The other three games are tougher, though we really should expect 3 wins, or at least 2-1-1 from these last two weekends. And only one point behind Cornell in the race for the Whitelaw. We're also just two points ahead of Harvard for the bye. The ECAC is nuts this year -- the top 5 teams are separated by three points.

Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats 2018-19 - Let's shuffle off to Buffalo
I know we keep it to hockey here, but big ups to the basketball team. Cameron Young scored a QU D-1 record 55 points today in a 3-OT win over Siena. Tied for 1st in the MAAC, and that group is battle-tested. Should be a fun next month up on the hill.
