First Intermission Thoughts

At the end of the first, Union leads 2-0.

Despite what the score says, this was a pretty even period for the two rivals. They both had seven shots in the period, and the faceoff tilt was a pretty even 12-to-10 in Union's favor.

The difference was Union took advantage of its opportunities. Awarded a power play in the first, Union took very little time to score. Kyle Bodie got the goal for Union, giving Union at least one power play goal in every game they have played against the Engineers.

The second goal was an even strength tally for the Dutchmen. Jeremy Welsh scored the goal after a beautiful feed from Daniel Carr. The goal gives Welsh 23 goals on the season, which ties him with Mario Valery-Trabucco for most single-season goals in Union's Division-I history.

Here are a few numbers to chew on as we enter the second period:
RPI is 1-21-3 when allowing more than a goal
RPI is 0-12-1 when trailing after 1

LET'S GO!
