First period was pretty good, the second two weren't as hot. We need to step it up a bit for tomorrow, but it's within reach.by MB - Hockey
Re: Review of Lynah Rink - 14 years ago
billhoward judy "The Lynah"? You know, like "The Facebook" I'mma jump in here for this one as I still call it "The Facebook." When the fbook first came 'round, it actually was "The Facebook." In fact, you can still access it via its original URL- thefacebook.com. This is much more legit than "The Google" or "The Lynah." This histby MB - Hockey
Re: Harvard at Cornell postgame - 14 years ago
We played well in the third period. I like that we ended the game 6-3, but I'm not too hot on us having to rally back from 1-3. That said, some exciting hockey. This is probably one of the best teams we've fielded in years and the freshman are playing fairly well. Our power play is looking pretty good, the PK not too bad, and Scrivens seems to have anchored himself near the net (and hasn'tby MB - Hockey
Re: (somebody else do the game thread) - 14 years ago
Scrivens looks a little uneasy, but did come up huge when he needed to. We had some nasty defensive breakdowns and they took advantage of them. When you allow what is essentially a 3-on-1 rush, you're asking for trouble. I like what we've done in the offensive zone, and we had some decent shots, but we really need to find the back of that net. We have a good team this year, and I'm really eby MB - Hockey
Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
Jim HylaAll I can say is, WOW. I could say the exact same thing back to you, but it's obvious you're not getting my point, and I'm not getting yours. I just think that athletics is overreacting, again, as usualby MB - Hockey
Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
Jim HylaSo, we forget about your professors and everyone who works at Cornell to keep it running. Forget about people like me, who have been going, and giving, since we were freshman in 1963. In fact, let's throw all of them out of CU and you can teach yourself. After all, as I had posted before it was Coach who wanted the vulgarity gone; maybe we could just not allow his wife and kids in Lynah,by MB - Hockey
Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
It always annoyed me that athletics cared so much about the townies. I see the University as a place for students where townies are invited in, not the other way around. I think the AD and all have sort of forgotten that. Now, it's true that we should be able to intimidate the opposition without swearing, but I also don't think that dropping the occasional curse (like during Gary Glitter) isby MB - Hockey
Re: Harvard Post-game - 15 years ago
Jim HylaIt's also nice to see the team rise up when Scrivens makes a mistake, as we all know he will, and not have to rely upon him to win. Aside from his mistake, I thought he played a good, not great game. Maybe not his greatest, but from the video feed, it looked like he improved a lot. His rebound control was pretty good this game, and he didn't wander out of the net too much. Both of theby MB - Hockey
Re: Cornell 4 at Colgate 1 Post-game Thread - 15 years ago
Good first, we were in the box most of the second (some crap calls, some stupid penalties), and they seemed to phone it in for most of the third. Scrivens looked awesome, but he's wandering again. If this keeps up, my coworkers will start giving me odd looks when I yell at the screen.by MB - Hockey
Re: Cornell 3 Colgate 1 (3rd) - 15 years ago
sah67The powerplay's looking pretty crappy in two consecutive tries now. Seems like we've fallen into the usual hold-the-fort strategy. One more goal...please? Ask and ye shall receiveby MB - Hockey

Well, you partly got it today. Scali looked fairly fast all game. He's impressed me, both with is physical ability and his quickness.by MB - Hockey
Re: Alumni in the Pros - November 2007 - 16 years ago
I was at the game. Goal was almost entirely Nabakov's fault. The Kings player on the breakaway shot right into Nabakov right as a tripping penalty was being called. The puck dropped to the goalie's skate, and everybody on the ice thought that the play had stopped. The goalie stood up, all the players stopped skating, etc..., but then Kings player 2 realized that no whistle had been blown, soby MB - Hockey

Re: Cornell 5, Quinnipiac 3 (postgame) - 16 years ago
I'd say he looked okay, but I don't think it was his day today. He was caught out of position a couple of times, and he seems to really like skating up to the blue line (once leaving the net wide open and he took his sweet time coming back). But, he did make some really nice saves and seems to be somewhat consistent. Oh, and he had a really nice jump-dive-roll over that one Q player that camby MB - Hockey

Re: Quinnipiac @ Cornell, Game 2 Postgame - 17 years ago
I dunno. From where I was sitting in A, the Sawada penalty wasn't justified. The Q player tripped over his own skate, Sawada then ran into him (momentum- he was a foot away from him, couldn't do anything), and both went into the boards. It all happened really fast, so I can't tell for certain, but it all seemed like an accident. I'll add more tomorrow when I can put my thoughts down coherentlby MB - Hockey

You're right, and in hindsight, probably not the best word to describe Romano. His play was great through the night.by MB - Hockey
Re: Clarkson at Cornell postgame - 17 years ago
No, really. Leggio sucked tonight, no doubt about it. Agree with that. All of us in A and B let him know that (thank you Leggio *clap clap clapclapclap*). Look, I truly am a Cornell fan. I really want Cornell to win. Though, truth be told, we played much, MUCH better against Colgate than we did against we against Clarkson. We shut down after the first period. Can you argue about our penaby MB - Hockey
