We pretty much look the part early on. I don't doubt that we're missing the high-level skills, but we're getting decent possessions and not getting out of position.

Great job on the PP. A couple of good opportunities for MC but we held up.

Great first period. Not sure we can ask for anything more than that.

They looked good in the first period. When they play within the system that Cav has installed things flow well. There were some spots where you could see the inexperience come out a bit as the system broke down...but they were able to get right back at it. Definitely a different team than what I saw last year in Milford against SHU, they are fun to watch!

MC is playing with more intensity in the 2nd. We are looking a little sloppy.

I like what I've seen of Nicholls. Stays in position, doesn't get cute with the puck and seems to have a nice feel for the surrounding traffic.

The 3rd looks like a continuation of the second...just need to hold it together and cut down on the turnovers

the goal was bad...but seemed inevitable...but Richardson taking that tripping penalty was bad. He has had a rough game tonight, with a couple of bad penalties

Oh well. They dominated for 2+ periods. Great effort by our guys, hope we can keep them all that competitive.
