Dafatone jkahn BU ties it with 10:58 left in 3rd. I'm hitting refresh on the CHN scoreboard at a deranged rate and you're still ahead of me. So am I Whew. Finally updated!by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: 2023 ECAC Post Season - 1 year ago
OK, here's what I see. If BU beats Merrimack, we finish at #12. If Merrimack beats BU, we finish at #13. Then it all comes down to other bid stealers. If we're #13, we need at least one favorite to win or our season's over.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: "When The Red Come Skating In" - 1 year ago
Dunc In fact I’m sure many of those who were also at lake placid yesterday can attest to the fact that if the band forgets to start it at the right time, they just play it at a fast enough/sped-up pace to finish before puck drop. That was just fucking awful, IMHO. Why even bother?by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: Men's Basketball 22-23 - 1 year ago
And Princeton stomps Missouri. Next up they get the winner of Creighton / Baylor. At least Cornell got a mention during the TV coverage as one of only three Ivy League teams to previously make it to the sweet 16. The other 2 were both Penn.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Other Sports

Scersk '97 Chris '03 Not interested in seeing Harvard pull even with 12 titles and four since Cornell's most recent title thank you very much. Would rather see the Quinnipiac win if I had to choose in this fictitious game. Flaming pile of asteroid-obliterated rubble it is, then! Exactly. FTR, I just did a YATC with Colgate losing to Q, us losing to Sucks, Q beating Sucks, and all the otherby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: Opponents and Others, 2022-23 - 1 year ago
upprdeck Yea we need just like 1 good thing to happen. You can see a path to #7-9 seed as well Whether thats a good thing or not hard to tell. It would mean No Harvard in the our Bracket I would think I don't want 8 or 9. That means Fargo.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: 2023 ECAC Post Season - 1 year ago
Trotsky If USCHO is to be believed, Friday 3/17 game times are: 4:00 Colgate vs Quinnipiac 7:30 Cornell vs Harvard Probably a bit optimistic for the late game start, but otherwise, that seems about right.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: Opponents and Others, 2022-23 - 1 year ago
upprdeck HE could steal a bid ECAC could steal a bid Atlantic will steal a bid CCHA will get 2 NCHA could steal a bid I dont think we can fall below like 13/14 but that still might not be safe Best to stay at 12.. and thats still on the edge. root for denver and st cloud root for BU Root for Quin if we have too If NMU wins over MTU, maybe CCHA gets 3?by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: ECAC QF Game 2: Clarkson at Cornell - 1 year ago
And we're still 12. Grr.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: ECAC QF Game 2: Clarkson at Cornell - 1 year ago
Trotsky Hard to tell from the scoreboards but I think Q and H have advanced to Placid. CHN seems to be behind USCHO, but if USCHO is right, then yes. Although even if CHN is right, they're both way up, so in that case it's just a matter of time.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: ECAC QF Game 2: Clarkson at Cornell - 1 year ago
Trotsky MTU loses, IINM we are still 12. WMU also lost in OT and we're still 12. If we can close out this game, we might jump them both. Edit: OSU loses to Mich 7-3. We're still 12.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: Bracketology 2023 - 1 year ago
French Rage osorojo Two months ago on this site the practice of using records of past performance to predict winners of future games was reviled. Probability Puritans must be deeply disappointed by the total dominance of past performance used to select and seed teams in the finals. Your mom's past performance was reviled by all of the longshoremen who paid her the nickel. Wow, Just wow.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: #13 Cornell at Brown, Feb 24 - 1 year ago
upprdeck yup.. just either of those games last week we we stay pretty close to top 10 in in PWR.. now we need to play well the next 3(hopefully) and see where we are. Minn St and Omaha losing tonight would help us. Omaha down 5-1 and hopefully get swept. Minn St. lost and Omaha is down 6-2 with 5 mins left. We're back up to #12. But we need to keep winning to stay off the bubble.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

D A T A E N G I N N E R I N G I hope you’re joking, but it reminds me of a card that was once sold at the Campus Store — Before I came to Cornell, I couldn’t even spell engineer, and now I are one. .

Re: IT'S A TRAP! Cornell vs Princeton - 1 year ago
Dunc Am I correct that holding a top 10 spot in pairwise/rpi is nearly a guarantee at an at large bid if we don’t get in through lake placid? Yes. And more likely 12 or 13 would be enough. The odds of all 5 major conferences being won by teams that aren't in the top 15 is close to zero.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: IT'S A TRAP! Cornell vs Princeton - 1 year ago

Re: Tonight on Skate to Survive: Cornell vs Quinnipiac - 1 year ago
abmarks Something only Brown could do: They are on the penalty kill from the opening whistle. 2 minute bench minor for a "protocol violation" The announcers aren't sure exactly what brown did, but protocol violations are for things like coming out of the locker room late or not clearing your guys off the ice in a timely manner. First time I've.ever.seen this penalty in 50 yearby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
