Re: 2025 NCAAs: Flip the Switch, Flip the Script - 3 months ago
ugarte MSU has higher PPG and lower GA than us despite playing a WCHA schedule. But it's 60 minutes and the gap is much smaller than HC-Minnesota. FWIW, MSU's non-conference opponents other than BC had a winning percentage of about 0.300. Our non-conference opponents had a winning percentage of just under 0.600. And they had a lot of games in the B1G where they gave up 3 or more goals and lby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: Women’s Team Deserves a FROZEN FOUR Thread - 3 months ago
ugarte Jeff Hopkins '82 I thought the Wisconsin penalty shot taker actually moved backward slightly (and they're actually taking about that right now on the intermission show).I thought this at first too, but on replay it looked more like she pulled the puck backwards but kept her momentum going forward. an incredible sequence. I just saw the replay. You're right. She continued her forward mby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

sah67 Jeff Hopkins '82 I thought the Wisconsin penalty shot taker actually moved backward slightly (and they're actually taking about that right now on the intermission show). It seemed likeOSU might make their own challenge of the penalty shot for that reason, but they didn’t. Yeah, I figured that was what they were talking about.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Al DeFlorio scoop85 djk26 I know it will take our best game to beat Michigan State. Anyone know anything about them, other than that they are very, very good? They’re a handful. Trey Augustine along with BC’s Jacob Fowler are considered the 2 best goalies in college hockey. And Isaac Howard is their offensive star, a 1st round draft choice of Tampa Bay who is one of top scorers in college hockby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: 2024-25 ECAC Champions - 3 months ago
RichH Give My Regards If the Big Red does get Michigan State in the NCAA's, it'll be another 30-years-flashback for Coach Schafer, whose first game as Cornell head coach was 11/3/1995 -- at Michigan State. If you wrote this script - the bookends of repeat titles, then also consider this fact - people would think it was too outlandish or sappy. Storybook. I have a couple screenshots of Scby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: ECAC '25 Final Red vs. Clarkson - 3 months ago
Dafatone Tom Lento Robb How fitting to beat Clarkson, once again...on an icing that wasn't. I'm a big fan of honoring history, and imma let him finish, but can we please re-name the tournament trophy the Mike Schafer Cup, please? Totally. It’s been such a pleasure following his teams over the years. I'm a little upset they got rid of the consolation game, because they could make a trophy fby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: 2024-25 ECAC Champions - 3 months ago
Here's what the NCAA holds, IMO: Manchester: BC, Providence, Denver, AHA Winner Toledo: Michigan State, BU, Ohio State, Cornell Allentown: Maine, UConn, Quinnipiac, Penn State Fargo: Western Mich, Minnesota, UMass, Minnesota State FWIW, the only game that impacts the brackets is the NCHC final. If Western wins, they finish 4th and Minnesota 5th, and Providence finishby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: ECAC '25 semifinal Red vs. Q - 3 months ago
redice CU77 Reminds me of the epic QF game v Providence in 1979 (yes, I am old!) Ah yes, the Randy Wilson game. There will never be another like that one!! Best game I've ever seen - and I was only there for the third period and OT (I had a Chem 208 exam).by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
Re: Opponent and other news and results of interest 2024-2025 - 3 months ago
Iceberg UND lost, so Q is in as an at-large. Michigan also got eliminated with Cornell winning earlier. Yep. And if we win tomorrow, Q finishes at 12, Penn State at 13, Mankato at 14, and Cornell at 15. Since Penn State must be in Allentown, the decision is whether to swap PSU and Mankato, which puts Mankato in Fargo and us in Toledo, or to swap PSU and Cornell, which puts us in Fargo and Manby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

sah67 2-0 Clarkson at the end of the 2nd. Now 3-0 in the 3rd. Looks like Maine will win HE. They're up 4-1 on UConn late in the 3rd. And if we win out, I don't see Q dropping below 12 in the Pairwise.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Re: ECAC '25 semifinal Red vs. Q - 3 months ago
Just for shits and giggles, I've been playing with "You Are The Committee." No matter what I come up with, the highest we finish is 17 in the PWR, and Minny State always finishes above us. Which means we'd end up the 15 seed in the tourney. In most cases that means we'd go to Toledo against Michigan State. The only way I can see us somewhere else is if NoDak or ASU win the NCHC.by Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey
