Good evening from Cheel Arena, when Union looks to keep its ECAC Hockey roll going as it faces Clarkson tonight.

The Dutchmen (5-5 ECACH, 12-9-1 overall) have won four of their last five ECACH games. The Golden Knights, who were my Daily Gazette ECACH team of the week this week after their come-from-behind wins last weekend at Yale and Brown, are 3-6-1 in the league, an 5-13-4 overall.

I had a good trip up. Listened to a lot of music (mostly 80s music), and, yes, I sang a little. Well, a lot. Thank goodness no one was in the car to hear me.

And it's a balmy 24 degrees up here!!!

Here is the Union lineup, beginning with the forwards (LW-C-RW):
Adam Presizniuk/Jason Walters/Mario Valery-Trabucco
Matt Cook/Kelly Zajac/Stephane Boileau
Luke Cain/John Simpson/Chris Potts
Andrew Buote/Justin Pallos/Jason Shaffer

The defensive pairings are:
Brendan Milnamow/Brock Matheson
Lane Caffaro/Mike Harr
Mike Wakita/Mike Schreiber

Corey Milan starts in goal.

And now, the Clarkson lineup, starting with the forwards:
Brandon DeFazio/Lauri Tuohimaa/Scott Freeman
Shea Guthrie/Chris D'Alvise/Matt Beca
Julien Cayer/Louke Oakley/Nick Tremblay
Jake Morley/Dan Tuttle/Tim Marks

The defensive pairings are:
Mark Borowiecki/Phil Paquet
Adam Bellows/Dan Reed
Jon Marshall/Bryan Rufenach

Richie LaVeau gets the start in goal.

The referees are Mike Baker and Dan Murphy. Marty Demers and Mike Emanatian are the linesmen.

Look for updates here on the Web site, as well as my postgame blog.
