Give the guy a break. He's just allowed a goal in overtime, his team has lost and he feels terrible about the whole thing. If I'm Mike Eagles, I'm happy to see my goaltender care that much. As for shaking hands, it's a ridiculous rule anyway. Teams battle tooth and nail, emotions sometimes boil over, and we're expecting them to shake hands when all is said and done? Either way

However he has singlehandedly won games for STU also....stay for the handshake. I would assume that UNB and STU guys have played enough hockey that they would say "you stole a point buddy, keep your head high". Leave it that he should have shaken hands and lets move on.

I believe Miszczak was the backup last night, not MacFarlane...for whatever reason.

Re Lavigne...I posted this over at stutommies.com, while I think he should have stayed for the handshake based on the circumstances I can understand why he immediately left...he is very competitive and emotional player who played a heck of a game and his one single misplay ended up costing STU the game

Lavigne was playing his second game after coming back from a groin pull. From what I understand, he still isn't 100%.

I think he just was used to the Q where they don't shake hands after games. Disrespectful? Yea. But I don't think it was intentional.

Lavigne was not very professional in how he left the ice without shaking hands.

I agree with your comments on Lavigne. He seemed to hurt himself towards the end of the 2nd period. I thought for sure that we were going to see MacFarlane for the 3rd.

Lavigne seemed to be favouring his left leg (maybe knee?) the whole 3rd period and OT. Still made some great saves, and for sure stole the extra point, but was very slow to get up at times.

It was nice to see a decent crowd in the AUC. The cross-campus rivalry seems to still keep drawing people.
