Saturday: Cornell's second best chance to get another Ivy win. Princeton (4/30) would be more likely. We need both plus last week's win over Dartmouth to make the Ivy playoffs.

Notice the crappy, shot-from-behind Harvard Crimson photo. The Sun's is far better; its only flaw is not crediting the photographer.
Harvard early lead, up 5-4 at the half. 3 Cornell goals in 43 seconds midway through the third gives Cornell a brief 7-6 lead on a Massimilian face-off win and shot. Harvard 8-7 after 3. Massimilian is something like 14x16 on faceoffs after three. 4-goal run puts Harvard up 10-7 with 6-1/2 to play. Announcers give the "Father Time is not on Cornell's side" warning with 5:00 to play. Andrew Keith bouncer cuts it to 10-8 with 4:11 left then it falls apart: Harvard goes up 11-8 with 2:17 left, 12-8 with 1:25 left. Final 12-8. Cornell played it closer than a 4-goal margin but couldn't do the job in the fourth.
Unless Cornell takes down Princeton and Brown, chances of a playoff berth are probably not there.
Brightest spot was Massimilian going 20x24 on faceoffs.
Also Saturday:
Brown 17, Penn 6 (midweek, unranked Bryant 11, #3 Brown 10 OT)
Stony Brook 13, Princeton 6
Yale 15, Dartmouth 5

A friend of mine once described a guest lecture by someone from Harvard as follows: the lecturer wipes their butt, shows the toilet paper to the audience, and everyone applauds.
Crappy shot from behind indeed. What do you expect from Harvard?

Looking at their record to date, it would appear that they are definitely beatable.
Plus, it's Hahvahd.
No more incentive required?
