Discussions about the Cornell men's and women's hockey teams
Re: Cornell Alumni in the Pros: April 2012 - 12 years ago
billhoward Luke 05 As expected, Moulson balances Bitz out for Cornell sportsmanship and is nominated for the only award in professional sports with "Lady" in the name: >>> "With six penalty minutes, became the first player since Paul Kariya in 1996-97 to score at least 30 goals and have single-digit penalty minutes." Two of the penalties were a double minor. Mattby BearLover - Hockey

So I figure it's unlikely anyone leaves early now. Axell as captain?by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Lacrosse April 2012 - 12 years ago
Al DeFlorio Brown wins it 10-9 with a goal in last five seconds. Now it all depends on winning the Ivy tournament. Cornell is out if they don't win the Ivy Tourney?by BearLover - Other Sports
Re: 2012 TBRW Awards - 12 years ago
jtn27 Even though Esposito was clearly valuable to the team as evidenced by how they played when he was hurt, I don't think you can give the MVP to a guy that missed significant time. I would give it to Greg Miller for being the team leader in both goals and assists. Yeah, it's gotta be Miller. There should be a toughness award--Espo would certainly win that. Birch, Lowry, and McCarron alsby BearLover - Hockey
Re: Season Review - 12 years ago
If you follow the players on Facebook/Twitter, it's pretty apparent that they're buying into the Big Red tradition and really appreciate Cornell hockey's history and following. While they are bummed out over the loss, all of them have posted about how great their run has been and seem more proud than upset, as they should be. Most of all, they are very sad to have to say goodbye to the seniors.by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell-Ferris State In Progress - 12 years ago
snert1288 I'm curious whether we get D'Agostino back for next year. I know it's way to early to be thinking about, but I think he is a real asset to this team. I'd guess he'll be back. He's in line to be captain and he hasn't been incredible (ready for the NHL) by any means...he had a pretty slow end to this season.by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell-Ferris State In Progress - 12 years ago
Good season, sad to see it end. The Red definitely could have won this game, and while Michigan looked better then Cornell last night, the boys looked no worse than their opposition tonight. Some bad luck and bad mistakes led to the Ferris State goals. Iles was down too early for the second goal and may have overplayed the first, but he played well as a whole throughout both games. The defensby BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell 3 Michigan 2 post game - 12 years ago
css228 BearLover Add this to the list of ridiculously close games Cornell has played in the tournament in the last decade. Is this the only one they won in OT, though? No, a memorable regional final in '03 went to double overtime. Matt McRae made SportsCenter the next day. Indeedby BearLover - Hockey

Re: Cornell 3 Michigan 2 post game - 12 years ago
Trotsky Ronald '09 I'm not sure if this was already mentioned and I missed it or not, but did de Swardt get a game misconduct or a game DQ?Consensus was just a GM. God knows what Mike will do, though. That's twice in three games. Is the benefit of De Swardt in the lineup worth the bad penalties he will undoubtedly take? I wouldn't think so, although he seemed to play well tonight aside from thby BearLover - Hockey

Re: Harvard 6 Cornell 1 ECAC post-game (post-mortem?) - 12 years ago
Great post, not much else to say. This was by far the worst loss of the season in the season's biggest game. Win and we're in, but I can't say I'm too confident about it.by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell - Dartmouth post-series good news fun times - 12 years ago
CowbellGuy Bit of video from the post-game crowd-salute (and Sean Whitney eating some snow). When does he eat the snow? EDIT: nevermind...by BearLover - Hockey
Re: HARVARD SUCKS - 12 years ago
Looks like Cornell will be in if they beat Harvard, no?by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell Women's Ice Hockey: March 2012 - 12 years ago
jtn27 Rougeau's game winner made today's SportsCenter Top 10. (So did Cornell Lacrosse, unfortunately for the wrong reason.) It wouldn't be ESPN if some of the best hockey goals ever weren't beat out by average dunks in meaningless games.by BearLover - Hockey

When are they going to post highlights/redcast game for game 1? Want to see Whitney's winner again...by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell Women's Ice Hockey: March 2012 - 12 years ago
Unbelievable. What time should we arrive for the men's game?by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Cornell-Dartmouth Game 1 (Friday) Pregame - 12 years ago
CowbellGuy Also, I'm quite sure the second goal was D'Agostino's. His initial shot went under the crossbar and back out quickly. It was fairly inconsequential since Espo knocked in the rebound, but those of us with a good view of it were pretty sure the first shot went in. I thought the same. And yeah, incredibly gutsy performance by Espo.by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Postseason Awards-Men - 12 years ago
Miller and Birch have been great this year. Both deserve more credit than they get (especially Birch, who seems to receive no recognition for his always-stellar defensive play).by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Lacrosse 2012 - Michigan lacrosse plays indoors - 12 years ago
Towerroad Swampy semsox I'm more worried this injury will keep him out longer than 6 weeks, and possibly the season. If that's a possibility, I have to imagine Rob has lots of scenarios going through his head right now, most of them not the best. Beyond healing the injury itself, there's the issue of conditioning. I doubt he can run or even use his leg for much while it's healing. So leg strenby BearLover - Other Sports

Re: Cornell 4 St. Lawrence 3 (ot) - 12 years ago
Big win. I'd imagine Cornell can't afford to lose another game before late in the ECAC tournament if they want an at-large bid, so this keeps them alive for that as well as for the number one seed in the ECAC. Big play from the seniors but they still haven't been able to shore up the defense and continue to blow leads.by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Consecutive shutout minutes at Lynah? - 12 years ago
Trotsky SwampySometimes even one classic game can make two schools rivals. Unfortunately that was not our only classic game against them. Wow, didn't know about that game! Didn't think it could get much worse than the 3-OT loss, but it can!by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Not a goal? - 12 years ago
Swampy css228 toddlose Yea we lost (was it expected? Honestly, yes). I took a lot of positives from this game. We dominated at times, as in most of the game. We are a very young team. I was there tonite with a party of 8 and I told all of them we will be playing in the frozen four within 2 years. We are that good. I have no doubt about it. I await the hecklng Still, if we miss the NCAAs because sby BearLover - Hockey

The game was incredibly exciting, but the refs ruined it. It takes a lot for me to blame the refs, but they earned it tonight.by BearLover - Hockey
