I was at Appleton, and I saw his arm move as he was being stretchered off.
The two seemed to get slightly tangled up with each other, although 5 + GM
was the right call.

They had some chances early in the power play, but Petizian made some nice
saves. SLU took advantage of the penalty kill to repeatedly ice the puck and
run time off the clock.

It was very nice. Quinnipiac looked like the team on the power play through
most of that penalty, especially after scoring short-handed only 13 seconds
in. The goal came on SLU's first advance into the Quinnipiac zone in that
power play.

Here's hoping I'm not going back to Canton on Sunday....
