PSU doing it again.

Duke playing copy cat.

Tough call on Duke’s 51. Reverse the goal. Looked good to me.

Helm simply can’t buy a save for Duke.

Penn State has to feel good about their chances here. 14-14.

So tough to win without good goalie play in this sport. Duke is getting nothing from theirs today

When a goalie isn’t feeling it, they can sometimes REALLY not feel it. If Duke escapes, I’d expect him to play much better the next game. He just isn’t seeing a thing right now, and that’s unlikely to change today.

Perhaps Duke might try playing team defense? Instead of leaving shooters wide open to rip on their goalie all game.

Duke's D is not playing great but some of these are saveable. He's hardly reacting

Are you watching the game or just looking at the stats?

Duke's face guarding their guys at the top of the box and leaving the Big 10 player of the year wide open in the crease with no 2 slide.

Agree. Goalie play can be reinforcing; I’d be bummed too.

Tough offsides on PSU.

Whatever brand of shaft keeps breaking needs to be banned by these coaches.

Come on, Coach Tambroni. Should have called that timeout with 21 seconds left on the shot clock.
