While I was busy this weekend, it seems the Ice Griffs went into the Buffalo State Arena and beat the Purple Eagles, yeah suck on that Niagara. You think you're so good and you'll just waltz in and beat up on a average hockey team, ok maybe a bad hockey team, well no, this is Canisius Hockey. Plus Canisius really wants to win this battle of the bridge series, showing who is the more dominant local small catholic school athletic program. It now stands at 11-3. A complete whitewash, and if they involved academics, Canisius would clean Niagara's clock as well. Really the Ice Griffs beat Niagara, Niagara was 10-4-1 while Canisius was 3-10-4. Mismatch on paper, thats why they play these games.
Our boy Josh Heidinger had 3 points along with 2 goals, his 8th and 9th on the season to lead the Griffs. Andrew Loewen made 37 stops, 15 in the 3rd as Niagara tried to tie up the game. Les Reaney was a real good sport in accumulating 10 minutes in penalties in the game, giving the Griffs 3 power plays. There were over 170o people in attendance setting a new record for the BSC Arena. I've been there its a nice small place for hockey. If you want to see some ok College Hockey head down there, there are no bad seats and you can get right up to the glass. Good for the kids.
Anyway complete ownage by the Griffs on the purple eagles. Whats a purple eagle anyway.
