FINAL: UAF 3 - Denver 2 OT

The University of Alaska scored in overtime to stun the University of Denver in Fairbanks on Friday night.

Gabe Levin and Matt Marcinew scored for DU to stake the Pioneers to a 2-0 lead, but DU's lack of depth came back to haunt Denver in the third period and overtime.

Trailing 2-0 until the last minute of the second period, the Nanooks completed their comeback with Garrick Perry's strike with just 25.2 seconds left in OT to secure a 3-2 victor.

DU will face UAA on Saturday night.

Coach Jimmy is full of cliches. Here's one for today: We need to play the full sixty minutes.

Cowley in goal. Walk on Toriumi in the line up.

Monty's team blows another lead. Penalties lead to another overtime loss.

So, the season is pretty much over already, huh?

I've been sulking all day. Didn't watch either game, so I can't attest to the effort or matchup... but this trend isn't a good one. Rebuilding year? Rebuilding Era?

Anyone miss Gwoz?

As predicted, the scoring is coming from the D-men. Interesting decision to start Cowley in goal, I wonder what the thinking was behind that decision.
