Gordon ArsenoffBack in my usual seats once more. Haven't been to many contests this season #Princeton
Stef Wallace puts Princeton on the board first and I can, belatedly, introduce Mastodon to Howard DeWitt #thisIsHowWeDoIt #princetonuniversity
One-nil after twenty minutes
Early in the second a visitor power play ends quickly, as the Engineers score on a blue line wrist shot straight off the opening draw. Elegant set piece
Tigers nearly got it back with 12:odd left but the save of the game so far on a rebound chance at the other end interrupted five Princeton celebrations on the ice
But they wouldn't be waiting long as a snipe from the left circle snuck in and it's a 2-1 game at the halfway mark
If I think I'm gonna keep this thread at all current, I'm wrong
Power play coming for Princeton, second of the frame
Nothing from the 5 on 4
Maddy Papineau ties it up again with 3:01 left till intermission
I'm not sure this would really be my favorite spot to watch from, here at the Zamboni end, if I really got around to trying other options. But this is familiar
Yet another RPI penalty coming. This will leak into the third unless the tigers strike in the next minute
A minor penalty is... under review right now? I'm shamefully out of touch but I didn't realize that that was a thing that could happen?
Anyway, call on the ice didn't seem to have changed, home team going on the penalty kill
Ah, the announcement is 2 minutes for incidental contact to the head, so I suppose the review was looking for a more serious foul
Welp, RPI scores with another delayed penalty coming. A trip on the shorthanded forecheck. That's maybe one you'd be a little frustrated to take
In the time it took me to key in that last message, the entire penalty was killed 🤣
Hard collision at my end. One more power play coming for the #Princeton #tigers. 7 minutes to play
And that's a ppg! Looked like a good pad save at first but it trickled through. 3 apiece
Annie Kuehl the scorer giving me the chance at the Babylon 5 reference there https://babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/PPG
PPG
A PPG (an initialism for Phased Plasma Gun) is a type of weapon that fires a bolt of energized, super-heated helium sheathed in an electromagnetic field and propelled by an opposed magnetic field. On impact, the plasma bolt dissipates and discharges its thermal and kinetic energy. When fired in an oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere, the intense heat of the super-heated helium plasma projectile causes a distinctive optical distortion as it expands the air around it. PPGs are the sidearm of choice for mos
Scored on thrice but still arguably player of the game as of the end of regulation. 39 saves for RPI's goalie
Tigers taking it to OT for the second time this weekend
Have I just lost familiarity with how things work here, or has this game gone by super fast? 60 minutes played in just 2:05 real time
Annie Kuehl drives in and sinks her second today unassisted with just 33 seconds left on the clock to send the fans home happy!
Your 2022-23 Princeton Tigers women's hockey team
One more weekend on the road and then it's the ECAC playoffs
