OT - Dryden's Next Step - 18 years ago
Dunno if this has already been posted here or not. A quick glance didn't indicate so. Looks like Dryden is attempting another step up in his political career ...by melissa - Hockey

Ticket question - 18 years ago
I posted this on the Ticket Exchange forum first by accident cause I'm a bit of a ditz this morning! Does anyone know how many tix the box office saves for game day sales? I know there is a small quantity but how small is it? And do both Friday's and Saturday's tix go on sale friday morning or are they open again saturday morning/afternoon for game day sales? Finally, if you are too far awaby melissa - Hockey
Re: Random thoughts from Albany - 20 years ago
judy posing as melissa... there were some ohio state fans up in the second tier, but they were really quiet. the pep band....wanted to strangle them with my bare hands...we only lasted half a period sitting near them. of course, we only lasted half the game since it was so boring that i was trying to figure out if it'd be more worth my while to take out the entire ohio state pep band/cheeringby melissa - Hockey
Re: Harvard's newest fan - 20 years ago
Maybe there's something wrong with me but it really doesn't bother me. It certainly did 2 years ago when we lost to them in double ot. I personally find that there is a HUGE difference in seeing them win against Clarkson (the team that eliminated us at home) and the last Placid experience. More or less ditto what Fred said earlier in the week. Plus - who knows - maybe we're starting a pattern ..by melissa - Hockey
Re: congrads to harvard (sucks) - 20 years ago
I gotta say that at the games last week-end I was cheering whole heartedly for Harvard and having a great time doing so. I was very happy that they came away with the title since we couldn't. I have no idea why but having them win ended up being the best case scenario in my mind. Despite heading into the rink with no real preference I found myself cheering Ivy and when the final game came down toby melissa - Hockey

Re: Albany lodgings - not woofing! - 20 years ago
Parking likely will be $5-10 ... but if you get there early on sat you might be able to get free street parking (no cost for meters on Sat - i think). Places to stay ... Cornell's hotel here tends to be the Best Western near the airport. It isn;t that bad from what I know. Also ok (tho maybe a bit pricey - I'm not sure) is the Wingate near the airport (where I stayed when I came to interviewby melissa - Hockey

Smoore - 20 years ago
This is kinda off topic but since he's a former ECAC player I figured it is relevant. Smoore was hurt really bad when the heated rivalry between the Canucks and the Avs reached a new and disturbing level. He was taken out on a stretcher after the sickest play of retaliation I've ever seen. After being smashed into the ice head first, with his neck at an odd angle, he was treated to a 5-10 ftby melissa - Hockey
Re: Cornell alumni in the pros: Feb 2004 - 20 years ago
I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that since the Hockey Canada emblem is there in honor of team Canada then "Lenny" is there perhaps in honor of CU? I haven't heard anyone call him this in the AHL yet (and in volunteering with the Rats in their Communications department I've had several conversations with Scouts, reporters, etc about him) and while he played for team Canada everyby melissa - Hockey
Re: Directions from Ithaca to RPI, please - 20 years ago
Yup. Averaging about 80 the whole drive should be around 2:15 (my usual time). Since I've been living in Albany for the past 2.5 years I've done this trip a lot!by melissa - Hockey

Re: 2004 WJC - 20 years ago
2nd intermission. Can 3-1. Lots of presssure by the Canadians in the final minute of the period. Game is still far from over. Definitely a nail biter.by melissa - Hockey

The 3rd CAN goal was a 5 hole goal on Montoya by Anthony Stewart.by melissa - Hockey
Re: 2004 WJC - 20 years ago
wait. Stewart did get a pen. Then Eaves joined him. ~30 sec of a 5 on 3 for Canada. Stewart's pen expired. CAN still on a pp. Post Edited (01-05-04 13:12)by melissa - Hockey
Re: 2004 WJC - 20 years ago
the ECAC just got dissed. TSN commentators were talking about Howard's injury. They said he stepped on a puck during practice before a Dartmouth game and injured his knee. "It wasn't even an important game for them. It was HE vs. an ECAC team." Grrr. I love my country and am quite proud of TSN but DUDE! There's no need to diss the ECAC! DAMN.
