150-foot empty netter on a clear attempt

FINAL - #ColgateHockey 5 Union 3

Simon Labelle with a 150 or so empty netter to seal it.

Reid Dyck with several big third period stops including one 10 bell glove save in tight.

Colgate with multiple blocks in the final minute against a 6-on-3.

End 2 - #ColgateHockey 4 Union 3.

Union with goals from Troy Pelton and Parker Lindauer to rally from down 4-1.

Colgate goals by Daniel Panetta, Jack Brandt, and Owen Neuharth (SH).

Goalies of record into the third are Reid Dyck and Brendan Holahan.

End 1 - #ColgateHockey 1 Union 1.

Goals from Colgate’s Niko Rexine on a goal mouth scramble and Union’s Brandon Buhr on the power play.

Colgate had the better of the play FWIW for most of the period.

Colgate and Union both with two goalies dressed today so I suspect each will play about 30 minutes.

Colgate - Andrew Takacs, Reid Dyck
Union - Brendan Holahan, Brayden Gillespie

Interesting setup here with benches next to each other and just one tunnel to the rooms opposite the Zamboni end.

Welcome to historic Clinton Arena. #ColgateHockey getting set to face Union in exhibition men’s ice hockey action at 2pm. This is Colgate’s first game in Clinton since 1984 and first at Clinton Arena since maybe 1949. #ECACHockey

Proceeds from Sunday’s #ColgateHockey exhibition game against Union will go to benefit 14-year-old Gavin Mosher of Clinton Youth Hockey’s U16 team. He is currently battling leukemia. There’s a GoFundMe that was set up over the summer that has raised over $41K.

Exhibition opponent on Sunday for #ColgateHockey will be skating into Clinton Arena on the heels of a 1-1 draw with Army West Point. That was the first men’s game at the new M&T Bank Center.

Coincidentally enough, Colgate drew Army nine years ago in the first men’s game at the ‘65.

Per the #ColgateHockey pregame show tonight, Daniel Panetta ‘26 is the captain for the Colgate men as they embark on their 96th season of men’s varsity ice hockey. #ECACHockey

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Hand-written scoresheet for the first men’s ice hockey game at the Class of 1965 Arena between Colgate and Army West Point, 10/1/16

Nine years ago tonight, my score sheet from the first men’s ice hockey game at the Class of 1965 Arena. Colgate and Army West Point played to a 2-2 overtime tie. The game featured 22 combined power plays. Derek Freeman will forever be the answer to who scored the first men’s goal at Riggs Rink.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

That’s former #ColgateHockey star Chris Wagner at camp with the Blues.

Wags signed a two-year AHL contract with the Springfield Thunderbirds over the summer.

He was previously with Colorado. This will keep him a little closer to home.
