LIVE FROM PEGULA... It’s OPENING night

Alex Limoges tips in Evan Barrett’s blistering slap shot on the power play 1-0 Lions. 4 minutes into the first period.


Vs. Sacred Heart. Expecting BIG things from this team this year, possibly a B1G title and deep run into the tournament. Heres to a healthy and productive season!
 
#13 preseason but John Buccigross the ESPN cawlidge hockey guy says B10 and Natty are possibilities.

Thanks!
 
So ... still ahead 2-0 halfway through the second period but PSU play has been underwhelming and SH is out working on a lot of scrambles. We are actually being out shot 18-11 for the game and Peyton Jones has had to make several good to great saves including multiple hot biscuit flurries in front of the crease. Still waiting for our D men to knock someone on their arse when they park in there.

And Sacred Heart cashes in the power play on a back hand to cut it to 2-1. getting a little uncomfortable, not a lot of juice on the ice or in the arena right now. Not what I expected tonight. 4:30 left in the second period.

Cole Hults lifts a soft wrister over the goalies shoulder on a power play for his second of the night and for the 3-1 lead to restore order. Under 3 to go in the second period.

COLE HULTS with the hat trick on the two man advantage. 4-1 PSU with 18 minutes left to go.

And Sacred Heart comes right back down the ice and cuts it to 5-2 twelve seconds later.

Penn State flipped a switch in the second intermission.

And as I’m typing that, SH scores to make it 5-2. Tugnutt has 4 of SHs 5 goals on the season.
 
Aarne Talvite buries one low as the Finish flag flies over the student section. 6-2 now with just over 10 minutes to go.

shots on net..... that is the stat that matters..... there are often shots on goal that are guaranteed not to see the net,,,,,,,
 
Sam Sternschein with the back hander off the rebound to make it 7-2 with 3 and a half left.

So amusing side routine after Sacred Heart replaced the goalie (3 goals ago). Every time there was a stoppage in play and the new goalie lifts his mask for a drink the student section booed in horror only to be followed by the rousing standing ovation when he put the mask back on. Hilarious.

Freshman Conner Maceachran gets his first career goal with under a minute to close it out at 8-2. Need to play with that kind of fire every period.

Peyton Jones was outstanding in the first two periods last night. Gadowsky from the presser:

“It’s not often in an 8-2 game that you feel that your goaltender saved you, but I really felt that way,” Gadowsky said.

“If it wasn’t for Peyton Jones, I think we would be learning a much different lesson right now,” he continued.

Sacred Heart had a lot of point blank scoring opportunities in the first two periods. Third period - not so much. We sit at the end where PSU defends their net in the 1st and 3rd and other than the goal, on another defensive lapse, there wasn't much happening there last night in the 3rd period. Jones was pretty much just watching the play at the other end. He also made a couple of - one in particular - sharp passes last night.

Wow. That was exciting. PSU had a serious breakdown on the fourth Sacred Heart goal. A three on none all alone on the goalie? I've seen two on none breakaways but never a three on none. A win is a win is a win.
