Schneider, BC Outlast SLU To Advance
by Jim Connelly/Senior Writer
— After a day and a half of upsets and near-upsets in the 2007 NCAA tournament, No. 2 seed Boston College finally restored order, skating to a 4-1 victory over No. 3 St. Lawrence in the second game of the Northeast Regional.
Though the game didn't require any dramatic comebacks or overtimes for the higher seed to advance, it certainly wasn't a cakewalk for the Eagles.
"[St. Lawrence] was extremely gritty and they worked extremely hard," said BC head coach Jerry York. "It was a hard battle for us. They had some chances early in the game and [goaltender] Cory [Schneider] had to make a bunch of big saves."
The boxscore shows Schneider with only 24 saves compared to his counterpart in the St. Lawrence net, rookie Alex Petizian, who was forced to make 31 stops. But it was Schneider's play in the first period along with a huge save late in the game on Shawn Fensel, when St. Lawrence pulled its goaltender in favor of an extra attacker, that earned the junior netminder his praise.
As BC held a 3-1 lead, St. Lawrence head coach Joe Marsh chose to pull Petizian in favor of an extra attacker with 3:40 remaining. Pressuring in the Eagles zone, the Larries mustered a shot from the right point that deflected and hit Schneider.
Fensel was sitting on the doorstep and appeared to have plenty of room to bury the goal until Schneider flashed his left pad to stone the sophomore blueliner.
Brock Bradford's empty-net goal with 23 second remaining accounted for the 4-1 final.
"I reached as far as I could with the left leg," said Schneider of the late-game save. "I was lucky to get a piece of it."
The victory advances the Eagles to Sunday's regional final, where they'll take on Miami, a 2-1 winner in Saturday's opening game, for the right to move on to the Frozen Four.
A major key to the game for the Eagles on Saturday was the play of the special teams. Besides going 1-for-5 with the man advantage, the Eagles stifled the St. Lawrence power play, killing all six opportunities for the Saints.
"Our power play has gone in spurts," said Marsh of his team's lack of production with the man-advantage. "[BC] did a good job of fronting our guys. We saw that on tape that they take away the shots from the points. We couldn't get those shots from the point through and those are the ones that can create second and third chances and some collateral damage."
Though St. Lawrence carried the play in the opening period, it was Boston College that tallied the only goal.
Brian Boyle scored his 18th goal of the season, and third since being moved from forward to defense five games ago, off a faceoff play just 1:24 into the game. After Ben Smith won the draw to the right point, Boyle maneuvered down the right-wing side, cut to the slot and surprised Petizian with a wrist shot that beat the netminder between the legs.
"We wanted to get that first goal. We wrote that in big letters on the board [in the locker] room," said Boyle. "We really wanted to get the momentum."
Ben Smith puts the puck home in the scramble for the puck. (photo: Melissa Wade)Another early goal in the second period extended the Eagles' lead. A scrum in front resulted in Ben Smith poking home his ninth goal of the season just 40 seconds into the frame.
The goal was controversial, though, as referee Derek Shepard had blown the whistle indicating he'd lost sight of the puck. After a lengthy video review of the play, though, it was determined the puck crossed the goal line before the whistle had blown.
Petizian said that he thought it was a late whistle by the referee.
"I thought I had it underneath me and I got pushed into the net," said Petizian. "It was a late whistle. I thought the ref should've whistled it earlier."
The two-goal lead, though, didn't last for long. Sophomore Brock McBride picked up a puck at the right faceoff dot and fired a quick shot past Schneider at 2:12 to cut the BC lead to one.
Both teams had plenty of chances in a back-and-forth second period but solid goaltending, along with the goal post on a Joe Rooney power-play attempt at 12:58, kept BC clinging to a 2-1 edge heading to the third.
That's when the Eagles finally attained some breathing room thanks to the stick of Andrew Orpik. On what looked like a harmless shot to the net by Brian O'Hanley from just inside the blueline, an outstretched Orpik got enough of the puck in the slot to deflect it through Petizian's legs with 16:26 remaining to give BC the 3-1 lead.
From there the Eagles' defense, which allowed the Larries just seven shots in the third period, and Schneider finished off the win, the 11th straight for BC.
Now the only thing that stands between the Eagles and their third trip to the Frozen Four in four years is Miami, a team that BC beat last year, 5-0, in the opening round of the NCAA tournament.
Though the RedHawks may be the number-four seed in the region, York made it clear that he anticipates a true battle in Sunday's regional final.
"I don't think seeds matter," said York, only the third favorite to advance through the first seven opening-round games. "If you get your team to the field of 16, you're obviously a good club."

Prospects continue to shine in RSL playoffs
The Russian Super League's quartefinals continued yesterday evening, and some of the Canucks' prospects again were right in the midst of the action and contributed some key assists.
Winger Evgeny Gladskikh collected his third point in the last four games when he assisted on Jan Marek's goal which tied the game at two midway through the third period, and Magnitogorsk went on to win Game 3 at Novosibirsk by a score of 3-2, qualifying for the semifinals with sweeps in the first two rounds.
Fellow winger Sergei Shirokov kept up his pace of scoring a point per game in the postseason when he picked up his fourth assist of the playoffs in CSKA's 3-4 OT loss against Ufa. Shirokov helped his team to rally from a 0-3 deficit, but in the end the visitors earned the win in the overtime session and need one more victory to eliminate CSKA.
Along with the four assists, Shirokov also has two goals in six playoff games.
Center Artem Chubarov assisted on Alexei Kaljuzhnyj's game winning power play goal early in the opening period and Omsk shut out Yaroslavl 2-0 to grab a 2-1 series lead.
The former Canuck now has two goals and three assists in six postseason contests.

Russian prospects in true playoff form
The Canucks' Russian hopefuls continue to make some noise in the quarterfinals of the Russian Super League's playoffs.
After being almost a non-factor during the entire regular season, winger Evgeny Gladskikh makes his points count in the postseason.
After scoring a crucial goal in the series clincher in the opening round vs. Chehov, Gladskikh assisted on Igor Korolev's game winning tally with 46 seconds left in the third period to help Magnitogorsk take a commanding 2-0 series lead over Novosibirsk with a 2-1 win in Game 2.
As it already was the case in Game 1 on Tuesday, rearguard Kirill Koltsov again found the back of the net with a booming slapshot yesterday evening in the second game of Omsk's series vs. Yaroslavl. Koltsov's shot bounced so quickly out of the net that the ref needed video replay to confirm it.
However, this time the goal was scored in a losing cause, as the visitors built up a 3-0 lead after the first period and survived a late Omsk rally to take Game 2, 4-3.
Winger Sergei Shirokov rifled a shot in from between the face-off circles for the insurance goal with 3:08 left in CSKA's 3-1 win at Ufa.
Shirokov currently averages a point per game in the postseason with two goals and three assists in five games.

I'm not sure on this, but i think Balej's season is done. The Fribourg Gouterron (sp?) site has no more games listed on their calendar for the year.
Also, i think Balej is unrestricted next year either that or its the 1 time in his career he can opt for unrestricted free agency.
edit: Did anyone else find that the webcast of the Cape Breton game only had audio?
