vs. LSSU (1/6-1/7)

[jpfalcon09]

Back to back nights with 5 different guys scoring a goal.

The depth on this team is starting to pop. We’re putting it together at a time where we would normally be falling back to the pack.

Folks, there might be a preview on Monday for next week’s series.

Offensively things are getting better. Still issues with d-zone coverage from time to time. Next weekend will tell us a lot about what the rest of the season might hold.

Swankler tied for second in total points across D1.

He’s a superstar.

He has broadened his game compared to last season.

Nice to see Barber working, for once. Schneider always puts in the effort.

END OF TWO: BG leads LSSU 4-2.

Shots are 28-16 in favor of the Falcons.

Gotta finish. I have a feeling 4 isn’t going to be enough to win, so we’re gonna need a goal here.

I was worried from middle onward. Lake State turned its intensity up a notch--and kept it there--and we did not respond well.

In the 2nd, when Stoever stacked the pads and lifted his leg, did he make a save? I thought I heard the puck hit the pipe, but I couldn't tell if he got a piece of it.

Agree. We were on our heels in the third. We had really good looks when we carried it into the o-zone. We went away from that in the third. Lots more dump and chase but never got control. Way too many NZ turnovers. Could not respond to their pressure. Glad (relieved) we were able to close it out.

[TalonsUpPuckDown]

To say we’ve been playing like dog s**t this period would be an insult to dog s**t. Empty net. Gut check time.

Edit: Ok, I was caught up in the moment. Apologies. It wasn’t as bad as I made it out to be.

It looked like it hit the post on the replay that I saw.

Defense is not playing like they did last night.

And I have to agree with pdt ahead of time about the officiating.

Well, it's game 2, so that means the other idiot is in charge, and he doesn't want to show up his partner from the night before.....

BGSU Goal: Swankler buries one as time expires. I think it’s gonna count, but they didn’t go back out and do a face off, so I’m not certain.

Either way, BG gets the 6-point sweep on the weekend to solidify 2nd place in the CCHA.

Enjoy watching Swankler play, because he'll only have a handful of games at the slate left. I'd be surprised to see him back next year in a Falcon Jersey.

Either he gets signed or he transfers to a bigger program. Agreed.

Yep

Maximum two-way contract or he's back next season. There's really nothing to be gained if he transfers.
