I guess that Consy thread never came about.

Now 1-1 with 9:23 to go in the 1st and the SLU(t) goes on the power play just after they tie it.

Changed my mind.  I had a feeling I was only updating myself.

Gotcha - I don't know about anybody else, but I find this game to be really interesting.  NCAA bid on the line.

SLU(t) going back on the PP - wonder if Princeton is just a little bit worn out from last night and are trying to make up with it with a little more clutching and grabbing.

From what I read in the Bracketology Blog on USCHO Princeton is in with a win but St. Lawrence is not a lock if they win.  So the other bubble teams like Minnesota and Ohio State would prefer St. Lawrence wins.

RPI commentators full of remarks about the poor atmosphere: "There are definitely enough people here to make this more exciting than it is."  

They complemented Cornell's traveling contingent during the first intermission also.

If you're St. Lawrence do you pull the goalie and play for the win?  And when?

No reason not to, if they're sure a tie counts them out.

That seems to be the opinion on USCHO.

Minn-Duluth 1 v. Denver 0, at the end of the 1st.

(MacGregor Sharp, for UMD, is indeed one sharp (http://www.umdbulldogs.com/teams-mens-hockey.php?page=roster)  looking hockey player and would get me to go to the FF Skills Challenge (http://www.umdbulldogs.com/news.php?id=4183). He was interviewed in between periods and well, caught my eye **]).

BU killed the penalty, obvs, but what a horrible time to take one penalty, much less two.

Ohio State should send a gift basket to BU's three penalty killers.

Shirley Jackson (RIP's money magnet president) can raise the money to buy naming rights and name it in honor of the fact that it will have been renamed so many times, the RIP Center.::wtf::

Seriously, the day that the TU newspaper dies is not near.  There revenue and circulation look good by today's anemic standards.  It might be one of the last Hearst papers to literally fold.
