PLEASE NOTE: There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

Welcome to our new online comments feature. Before you can join the discussion, you must first register with Disqus and verify your email address.

Once you do, your comments will post after they have been reviewed by a moderator.

We welcome your thoughts and your opinions, including unpopular ones. We ask only that you keep the conversation civil and clean.

Not all comments are deemed printable. Some are disqualified, at the newspaper’s discretion, for a number of reasons. Here are some typical practices to avoid in trying to get your comment printed:

There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

Don’t state as a fact something that is unsubstantiated or that our editors wouldn't know to be true.

Don’t presume someone’s guilt in a case when it hasn't been established by a court.

Don’t assail or impugn an identifiable individual or group. If you have that kind of criticism, sign your name and submit it as a Letter to the Editor. (There is some leeway on this in connection with public officials, but it is not unconditional.)

Don’t use profanity. This includes the term “tea bagger.”

Don’t be incendiary or tasteless. Those qualities are subjective, of course, and our editors will be the arbiters.

Do not identify yourself in the main content area of the article content form. Only by enforcing this rule can the moderators prevent unscrupulous commenters from falsely identifying themselves as someone they are not.

Don't type in all caps. It is considered the Internet equivalent of shouting.

In sports articles, do not criticize officiating.

Remember, moderators are not allowed to edit any article comments. If an article comment fails any of the above criteria, the entire comment will be deleted.

We monitor comments Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Approval of comments outside these times may be delayed.

Tolosky nets two, including game-winner, for Hornets

Press-Republican

TUPPER LAKE — Jack Tolosky's goal with 6:26 left in regulation broke a 3-all tie and lifted Plattsburgh High School to a 4-3 non-league boys' hockey win over Tupper Lake on Saturday.

Tolosky, who scored two goals and added two assists, and John Fine-Lease tallied goals to give the Hornets a 2-0 lead.

The Lumberjacks, however, rallied for a 3-2 edge on a goal by John Bujold and two by Bryce Guerette. Guerette's second goal made it 3-2 with 40 seconds gone in the third.

Alex Maston then tied it at 5:50 of the third, setting the stage for Tolosky's game-winning marker.

Robby Knowles turned aside 18 shots in net for PHS, which held a 31-21 shot advantage.

"We're trying to get over some sickness, bumps and bruises — and get ready for the playoffs," PHS coach Jamie Reidy said.

"I was happy with the victory today. Tupper Lake had a lot of energy and played hard."

Burnt Hills 3 Saranac 1

PLATTSBURGH — Chase Godfrey, Clark Grabb and Connor Lind scored goals to lead Burnt Hills/Ballston Spa to a non-league victory over the Chiefs.

Jeff Kurz scored the lone goal for Saranac with 5:54 gone in the third period.

Zach Lareau made 46 saves in net for the Chiefs, who were outshot by a 49-26 margin.

"We didn't have a game all week and skated hard in practice," Saranac coach Ed Davis said. "We have a lot of potential, but I was disappointed with some of our effort today.

"We lost Matt McCasland to an injury in the first period and that's a big lost for us. We started applying some pressure in the third period but it was too little, too late."

The Chiefs have a busy week ahead with three games, starting with Monday in Lake Placid.
