The Golden Knights of Clarkson proved their abilities in a solid victory over
the Brown Bears (yet another reason to officially go back to "Bruins").  The
game was pretty much a nightmare for Brown as Clarkson jumped out to a 3-0
lead, doing what Brown could not do...convert SOG into actual goals.  The
Clarkson goalie gave up a lot of rebounds, but the Clarkson defense kept Brown
players from moving in.  I have nothing but respect for Clarkson now that I saw
them play.  Their passes were crisp and they moved at a quick pace.  Brown just
 did not have what it takes this evening.  The defense was almost non-existent
which left Parsons subject to his own personal nightmare.
Hopefully, Bruno can come out tomorrow night against SLU and take back 2nd
place.  I still think Brown has the players necessary to play into the post-
season, but they'll just have to prove it in the ECAC tourney.
A word on the refs...horrible.  Not an excuse for osing the game, but they
blew many calls and were very inconsistent.
I do have a question...how often does a goalie lose his helmet?  A Brown goal
was disallowed for such a reason...pretty dumb.
While spending the third period talking and basically watching Clarkson play
some nice hockey, I remembered hearing at least 3 *PING*s as the puck hit the
post...the score could have been much worse...and this game could have easily
been something like 12-8.  Only one team showed up to play tonight.  This
obviously seems jumbled, but so is my head...frustrated, angry, upset...Oh
well...we can pay 'em back in Lake Placid, right?
 
 
Adios...
