Second Intermission Thoughts

RPI does not want to go easy.

Down 2-0 and 40 minutes from elimination, RPI fought hard to get back into the game.

RPI was able to take advantage of their opportunities this period tallying an even strength goal, and scoring on the one power play chance they had in the period.

The good news for Union: they still managed to head into the locker room with a lead. With less than three minutes in the period Kevin Sullivan tallied his first goal of the series off a nice backhander.

So the score at the end of 2 is 3-2 Union.

Some Stats:
-Union outshot RPI by a modest amount (11-to-9)
-Union also won the faceoff battle 13-to-7
-RPI was 1-for-1 on the power play in the period, and Union was 0-for-1

And then there is this:
RPI is 0-15-1 when trailing after 2
