The games that I have seen, the Buckeyes have skated very well, the passing has been very good and they have managed to get off a lot of shots - they just can't put the puck in the net on a regular basis.
On the defensive side, the goaltending has been less than spectacular (to be kind) and they have had short spurts where they completely breakdown which leads to easy scoring chances. That has killed them. Overall, they have done a very good job in limiting the opposition's shots on goal, they just need to cut down on the mental lapses.
Once they fix the defenses lapses and Caruso starts playing like he's capable (the shots will start finding the holes on the offensive end - it's inevitable), the team will be quite formidable.
As Ou8ch stated,
OSU hockey is a great bargain. I recently took my girlfriend and daughter to a game. Neither had ever been to or watched hockey, but they had a great time and are looking forward to going to many more.
