Our kill has worked all year, so I'm not exactly complaining, but there's something to how we cover the point and the wings that just kind of bothers my brain. We're running a sort of triangle with an extra guy at the point, and that extra guy winds up running around more than I expect. I'm more used to a four person box.
I'm not saying we need to do anything differently. Just that our kill looks weird.

Indeed. The three teams immediately preceding the pandemic were good at beating down bad opponents. This year, it has really only happened with Yale, SLU, and the Capital District teams.

As good as Syer and Flanagan seem to be, being without Schafer for now a month has to have some effect on performance. And I assume no Andreev again today? That certainly doesn't help things.

2, 3 years back, I mused that Cornell must lead the ECAC if not the country in hanging tough against the league's or nation's top teams and losing way too many to the bottom quartile. Statistics proved me wrong, but it still feels that way. Last 2-1/2 weeks we've failed to beat Princeton, Dartmouth and (so-far) Brown. Three of our four January wins were to the nation's 1- or 2-ranked teams (plus Yale).Trotsky

My intuition is this is one of those cognitive biases we all have. Certainly all fans believe this about their team. I made this chart to test it.

Against good teams they are patient and grind and take shots and crash the net. Against bad teams they try to stickhandle through traffic and it just doesn't work. They can't generate offense against bad teams because (without Andreev and Kovich, especially) they are trying to outplay opponents that they are better than but not enough better than that the edge is enough to win on skill alone. More shots, more bodies in front to clean them up. Make Brown work by taking adequate shots not perfect ones.

We have more trouble clearing space in front of the net than most Cornell teams. Trading muscle for speed is a trade I'm generally willing to make (and we're still very large), but it seems like the weaker teams we've struggled with win all those rebound battles and crowd the net front.

The way to fix that is stretch the opponent's defense with even more speed. Think of those great Yale teams.

this team has forgotton how to score.. the wide open shots are not going in and pretty much mostly tough goals now..
still lose on a PP and the Dman falling down creating a breakaway.
would love to see a real angle on the goal that was reviewed.. it was on the line when we could see it from center ice, probably had no view at all from above on goal cam.
other than a burst against Princ in last 3 min we can get anything to go in. we went from a high scoring team to a low scoring team pretty fast the last 30+ days

See, I thought we tried to put the puck on net plenty of times. Must've been about a thousand blocked shots.
We need more movement away from the puck in the offensive zone. Our PP is the three umbrella players passing back and forth and nothing from the players down low. More crisscrossing, skating the puck, and player movement might shake some things free. We possessed the puck well on the PP, but ultimately, all our shots came from the outside wings and got blocked.

We possessed the puck well on the PP, but ultimately, all our shots came from the outside wings and got blocked.

Wild take. The goaltending is the only thing somewhat promising about Cornell’s performance the last few weeks. Almost no playmaking ability outside of the top 4 or 5 guys, PP can’t get set up in the other team’s zone, PK gives up way too much space and other teams have learned how to take advantage.Trotsky
I don't want to be That Guy, but these are the games that Galajda, Iles, McKee, Scrivens, and Gillam won 1-0.
With that said, Shane looked like a deer in the headlights on the breakaway that led to the second Brown goal. How do you give up that much space between the legs?
If there is one key difference between this year’s team and prior years’, it’s the depth. In prior years Cornell could roll three or four lines that could punish opponents that were worn down. This year, opponents can match up their shutdown defenders against the first line, while Cornell’s other lines are just biding time until Stienburg is rested enough to get back on the ice.
The future of the program may very well be bright, but this year’s team is going nowhere. I don’t think the voters who keep ranking Cornell in the top 15 have seen them play this year.

See, I thought we tried to put the puck on net plenty of times. Must've been about a thousand blocked shots.
In the third, we started to put the puck on net a bit better. Where was that in the first and second?
So many times I see the chance for a sneaky backhand; instead, the player slows down, gives the defender time to get in front, and we end up with another blocked shot. Or worse, a bad pass or another braindead slappah into somebody's ankles.
Rego had a great backhand sometime in the second; one of those is going to go in eventually. In a game like this one was, anything that creates any bit of chaos is the right thing to do.

IIRC, Cornell the second highest shooting percentage in the country through the first half of the season. That is a sign that you’ve been very lucky. It also included three (at the time) 3v3 goals. Cornell’s scoring has regressed to the mean.upprdeck
this team has forgotton how to score.. the wide open shots are not going in and pretty much mostly tough goals now..
still lose on a PP and the Dman falling down creating a breakaway.
would love to see a real angle on the goal that was reviewed.. it was on the line when we could see it from center ice, probably had no view at all from above on goal cam.
other than a burst against Princ in last 3 min we can get anything to go in. we went from a high scoring team to a low scoring team pretty fast the last 30+ days

Up until the last couple games I'd say we were rolling multiple dangerous lines. In the last couple games they all collapsed, especially the Stienburg line.BearLover

This year, opponents can match up their shutdown defenders against the first line, while Cornell’s other lines are just biding time until Stienburg is rested enough to get back on the ice.
Until the last three games I'd have said the Tupker line was actually our most ferocious in terms of wearing the other team down. But they've disappeared.
Somebody check the Pizza Hut.

It's easy to point at one injured guy and say he makes all the difference, but Andreev fills that sparkplug role. I bet we'd look more lively with him.
Also, hard to evaluate what the absence of Coach does to the team, both from a strategy standpoint and overall morale.

I was guessing game attendance would either be 250, or 250 from Brown and 250 Cornell fans. From the box score, attendance 262: [brownbears.com]
Maybe 12 Brown fans came?

Shane looked like he'd never practiced defending 1-on-1. The first goal wasn't his fault. Several of our past goalies could have stopped the second goal.

Center ice Brown logo looks like a 97-year old French whore's faded tattoo.

A matter of perspective and preference. Phil provides news: you interpret it and act upon it how you wish.
I, for one, welcome winter as the season of skiing, hockey, and of beautiful snow. So too it is the season of the truly great contrast—at least for those fortunate to have insides to go to—that reminds you that you're alive: cold outside, warm inside. Living through four seasons each year is best for the soul, and of those four seasons I anticipate winter the most.

Ah, you must subscribe to the midwestern 11-season schema. A devotee of mud season, perhaps?
winter fool's spring second winter spring of deception third winter mud season actual spring summer false fall second summer (1 week) actual fallI detest "fool's spring," a.k.a. January thaw. My favorite is third winter, i.e., that time of the year when everyone always seems to have forgotten that the big snowstorms come in March. Hockey playoffs and fewer idiots on the slopes—what could be better?

greetings from 2 season florida - hot and humid, not so humid. or hurricane season, prepping for hurricane season. I miss autumn and apple orchards. When i lived in ithaca I was baking apple something from september - february.
for those of you up north ... Enjoy the snow (I miss how pretty it is, not driving in it) and be safe on the roads. The Lakewood (Colorado) PD have some winter weather advise.
?s=20&t=iSQp3GFk_m1OYcLZjHfJUQSnow & frigid cold (down to - 2) is starting on Tue. afternoon, so Burrow in & stay warm. The roads will deteriorate, so drive slow, use snow tires, charge the battery & check fluids. It’ll be cold enough to where the snow won’t melt, unlike the #Chiefs in the second half. #cowx [t.co]
— Lakewood Police Dept. (@LakewoodPDCO) January 31, 2022
?s=20&t=jGD9B6wYJL-rtaaNmZCtJgThere will be snow (2-5”) tomorrow during the AM rush hour, so you know the routine: Make sure your tires have good tread, drive slowly & give the same amount of room to nearby cars that the #Bills gave to #TravisKelce with 7 seconds left to get to FG range. #CoWx #BillsvsChiefs [t.co]

It looks like Ryan Bischel has replaced Galajda as the starting goalie at Notre Dame, for now at least.
