Re: Rules Changes? - 14 days ago
abmarks It's official; 3 on 3 and shootouts. Spinorama is verboten though. The one change I do like though is the ability to pick which face off dot you want to take the draw in after the other team ices it. Ugh... 3-on-3 to decide a game is moronic. And who the hell complained about the requirement to shake hands after a game (or multi-game playoff series)? If all the other rulesby Beeeej - Hockey

Scersk '97 jtwcornell91 Dafatone Trotsky Jesus fuck. Just have a wet t-shirt contest. My money's on Mike. 3 on 3 is entertaining. Like, I'd watch some sort of 3 on 3 hockey league. As an OT tiebreaker, you might as well flip a coin. At the very least, they better implement some sort of point situation where an OT loser gets a point, because it's a shame to lose in OT on something as randomby Beeeej - Hockey

Re: ECAC Early Departures - 3 months ago
Trotsky French Rage Shouldn't anyone with 32 seasons somewhere have the most wins?The quote is misleading, since Gaudet's coaching time is divided between Brown and Dartmouth. Either the 331 wins isn't in 32 years, or the 331 wins isn't the "most in school history." Edit: it's the first one. 93 wins in 9 years at Brown 331 wins in 23 years at Dartmouth That makes a little moreby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: ECAC Early Departures - 3 months ago
French Rage Shouldn't anyone with 32 seasons somewhere have the most wins? You'd think so. Of course it's not exactly a high bar when you retire with an average of fewer than 11 wins per season; any halfway decent coach who replaces him should have a shot at breaking his record if he sticks around for a while. By way of counter-example, Schafer won his 331st game as Cornell's head coach two gamby Beeeej - Hockey
