Re: ECAC Semifinal - Dartmouth - 6 weeks ago
Scersk '97 Loved the moment deep in the third where our guys pinned it against the wall in the Dartmouth end for a good 45 seconds. Old time hockey. Except in the old days they would have whistled it dead after 15 seconds.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: Lake Placid-2024 - 6 weeks ago
adamw Also - Albany is a sh*thole. It may be a shithole, but it's our shithole. You're right, I guess. I just wish that Lake Placid didn't rip off the fans. The woman checking me in at my hotel yesterday told me that all the hotels look forward to the ECAC tournament...so they can jack up their rates!by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: Lake Placid-2024 - 6 weeks ago
scoop85 Jeff Hopkins '82 To give you an idea of how second class this tournament feels, there are no programs at the rink and not even a QR code to scan for one (like there was last year). They just didn't bother creating one. Also, there's a single tiny stand selling souvenirs. None of it has the name of the schools on it - all the souvenirs simply have the tournament logo.

Re: Lake Placid-2024 - 6 weeks ago
I also heard something interesting at the rink last night. Apparently, Vermont has been trying to get some OOC games with Cornell, but "Cornell's AD was so pissed about UVM leaving the ECAC for Hockey East that he refused to ever allow Cornell to play them." Maybe our new AD will allow that to happen now?by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: ECAC Semifinal - Dartmouth - 6 weeks ago
Dunc imafrshmn Schafer likes to tamp down the emotions, at least to start games. But the way this one shook out, the emotions ramped up organically, and we finally clicked. We can win a game playing one good period, and that makes us dangerous. I like the vibes going into tomorrow. Hope Kempf's knee feels better. Kempf looked good there at the end after going down! He was putting in some goodby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Robb RichH ugarte Obviously Dartmouth is in the way and SLU is itself a solid team but my god we could not have asked for a better setup than this to redeem the season. Remember Bemidji.

Trotsky That part's good. Maybe. I don't ski, so as long as the roads are open enough for me to do some birdwatching, it's OK. OTOH, if we don't win Friday night, they'd better be open enough so I can drive home on Saturday.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: Harvard @ Cornell Saturday - 7 weeks ago
I remember "Go start the bus", too. Unless we played Army ("Go start the tank" or Sucks ("Go staht the cahr". I think the whole "Hey goalie...your _____ Called" is uninteresting. Nobody can hear anything but You suck". I despise the tubas "Over There". Manly because the cheers don't fit the rhythm. It sounds clumsy to me,by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

On Twitter Adam said as much Was just coming here to say that I've just been running more numbers - and yeah, can't see any way for Cornell now. Would've been very possible if Omaha lost.

Hockey fans are gonna go for that first. Women’s game is at 2, men’s at 7. Leave Ithaca at noon, leave Hamilton around 4:30ish. Check hoops on your tablet. Lax isn’t until Sunday. Assuming the women's game doesn't go to OT. Oby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
