Game Thread: Frozen Four: Omaha vs. Providence 4 pm CST-ESPN2

[oaknightshockey1]

Killed off the penalty, and got a good chance shortly after the power play expired. Time to get something going on offense now.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Providence scores on a bad rebound from Massa. 1-0. Can't blame him too much though, he's gotten very little help so far.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Next goal is huge in this game. If it goes to 2-0, it will be tough for UNO to claw back. On the other hand, if they can tie it up at 1, they can steal the momentum away from Providence.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

And there it is. 2-0 Providence on a defensive zone breakdown for UNO. Hope they don't fold up the tents and go home, but that's how it feels the game is gonna go.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Mavs to the power play shortly after the goal. They need to score here to get back in it.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Not much for the Mavs on the power play. Things are not looking good.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

After 2 periods, Providence leads 2-0. Shots on goal are 31-13 in favor of Providence. If not for Massa, this game would be 6-0.

Not looking good for the Mavs.

Down 0-2 END OF 2ND PERIOD.

I am always humbled when I watch hockey. I don't know shit about the game.

I'm the opposite. For once I actually know completely what is going on. I played basketball through 2nd grade and football for 1 year in 8th grade. I've played hockey since I was 4, so this is my comfort zone. If only we could get a Huskers team, then I'd be able to contribute more to our conversations on here

Yep. Second intermission would be the terminology you're looking for

 

[oaknightshockey1]

The good news is it's only a 2 goal game. There's still a chance, but the tide of the game is going to have to change dramatically, and do so quickly.

I don't think you'll ever see hockey at UNL.

1.) Title 9
2.) Some speculate there was an agreement UNO would kill their football program if UNL doesn't get hockey.

I think with Osborne in the picture there was no chance. With Eichorst, I'm hearing rumblings that we might pursue it, and relatively soon at that. Nothing definitive, but I think there's a chance.

They'll have to kill another men's sport or add another women's sport.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Power play time. Better momentum to start the period, and a goal here would be HUGE.

Where there's a will, there's a way. Hockey could be revenue-generating, which makes it attractive.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Well shit. I have to go now, so I'll have to check the score on my phone. Enjoy the rest of the game
