The last time the Oswego State men's ice hockey team made the 90-mile trek to Utica, they left a 17-game unbeaten streak behind. The Pioneers beat the top-ranked Lakers 5-2 on Jan. 23, 2007 at the Utica Memorial Auditorium to hand the eventual National Champions their first loss of the 2006-07 season after a 14-0-3 start. For many Oswegonians, the 2008-09 edition of coach Ed Gosek's Lakers have conjured up memories of that squad from three years ago. Their hot start 10 wins in their first 11 games, including a victory in each of their last nine contests have earned them the nation's top ranking for the third time in four seasons. The Utica team that beat Oswego State in '07 was 7-6-3 and had just gone winless in a two-game series with Elmira. Their victory over the Lakers started them on a stretch in which they won six of seven games. The 2009-10 Pioneers are in need of a similar jump-start.

Senior Anthony Luckow has been shaky for the Pioneers in net (4-4-2, 3.13 GAA, .894 save percentage). Utica had reached out to former Oswego State goaltender Tim Potter in the off-season, but to no avail. Luckow's backup, Justin Bolla, has been even worse. The junior has stopped less than 84 percent of the shots he has seen while allowing four-and-a-half goals per 60 minutes. As a team, Utica has been lights-out on the man advantage. They've accumulated 23 goals on just 77 chances the sixth-best conversion rate in the country (29.9 percent). Only Adrian has scored more power play goals this season (25). The Lakers would be wise to cut down on their nearly 16 penalty minutes per game average tonight. Face off is scheduled for 7 PM. Tickets are $5 for adults, $2 for students.

Jan 7 (Reuters) - Citigroup downgraded Pride InternationalInc (PDE.N) and Hercules Offshore Inc (HERO.O) to "sell" from"hold," citing globally weak shallow-water rig markets,particularly in the U.S Gulf of Mexico.

Shares of Pride fell 6 percent to $17.97 on the New YorkStock Exchange, while those of Hercules were down 5 percent at$5.45 Wednesday morning on Nasdaq. The brokerage said it also cut its price targets andestimates on the offshore drillers under its coverage. "All drillers are exposed to shallow water," analyst RobinShoemaker wrote in a note to clients. However, the rebound in oil service and offshore drillingstocks in early 2009 has paralleled the surge in oil prices,and investors may continue to look beyond negative earningsestimate revisions if the oil markets can preserve recentgains, the analyst said.
