Considering Union was the only school that had more players on this list than Cornell (Yale, Princeton and RPI each have 3 as well), this year wasn't that bad after all.

So, out of 24 players on the list, we have 3, and no first teamers. Union has 6, RPI has 3, as does Princeton. I forgot, where are those teams now?::idea::I guess Schafer is not that good a coach.:-}Sorry to reopen old wounds, but I'm just happy to be going to AC. Not really, but I'm happy we're still playing for the championship. So now I'm::bolt::

Of course, by that argument Don Vaughan should win the Spencer Penrose.  Not only does 'Gate have 0 players in the list; they eliminated two of the three teams you mentioned.

I'll agree Vaughan is a good coach, just look at what happened to gate when he was out a year, but I'm sort of concerned about us right now.

This season was very ::screwy:: Stats/awards don't mean much when the probable outcomes are not the real outcomes.

Yep.  We finished in 4th by virtue of our good H2H record against teams around us, while at the same time going 3-4-1 against the bottom 4 teams in the league.  Win a couple more of those very winnable games and we'd have been a solid 3rd place instead of tied for 6th...

Actually, didn't Stan Moore win Coach of the Year and have Colgate in first place the year Vaughan was out?  (though I do think Vaughan is a good coach)

You're correct, now I just have to figure out who I was thinking of?::screwy::

Odd that Nick D'Agostino makes an All-Ivy team (second) but isn't here where there are first-second-third teams while the Devins are here but not on an All-Ivy team. Maybe D'Agostino's heroics were focused more on Ivy games. Not as big a question as How Could Union Collapse?

If you have seen Gate, the real question is how in hell did they lose so many games by one goal.  On top of that you also have to factor the flukey game tying goal as lucky.

Because D'Agostino led all Cornell skaters, and was second among all Ivy defensemen, with 7 points in 9 Ivy games, whereas Joe Devin had 5 and Mike Devin had 4, and because Joe Devin led the ECAC with 13 goals in conference games (incredible second half he had) and Mike Devin was 4th among defensemen with 14 points in ECAC play, whereas D'Agostino's 11 points in ECAC play put him 11th among defensemen (still respectable, of course).  If only there were someplace on the Internet where this kind of thing could be looked up (http://collegehockeystats.net/1011/confstats/ecachm) rather than just idly speculating about it.

It amazes me that he was able to achieve this feat despite all the shortcoming we had in the beginning of the season. His OT goals are definitely exciting. Let's hope Joe can improve even further in this category this weekend.

I don't want to ask for a whole lot, but another ~6 goals from him would be great.  :-D
