First few shifts all Cornell but the puck has been down the Merrimack attacking end for the past several minutes. Nice bid just now as MC catches Cornell in a line change. Hussar waits, pulls his man back and flips it to Tibbet for a bid in front. Gillam thought it was by him at first.

Overall I thought that was a good period for MC. It was a return to October Merrimack. Chipping pucks deep and getting on a Cornell team that’s hard to get around. SOG read 8-6, but they flipped it. SOG were 8-6 Merrimack. Something must have been wrong there.

SOG still 2-0 MC in the period. Not much happening. A lot of play in the middle of the rink, no one really controlling pucks on either side. Swiped pucks, bouncing pucks, bodies bumped around. Taking shape much like Cornell, with a 2-0 lead, would prefer, I’d suspect.
