That's it for OOC play this season, and after all the results are in from last night we're holding at #14 in the PWR, the very definition of the NCAA bubble in recent years. Shockingly, that still leaves us as the second-highest ECAC team in those rankings, and we've already gone 0-1-1 against #6 Quinnipiac with no opportunity to improve that unless we meet again in the playoffs. The team is mostly healthy and definitely playing well if this weekend is any indication, thank goodness. But I can't remember the last time we entered the conference-only stretch run doing relatively well and yet in such a precarious position to lose ground in the PWR against all nine remaining teams.
Just win, boys.
ASU has an interesting slate left and only 8 games, while teams like us have a Min of 16.
here back home, back out to BU back home, back out to RIT, home for 2 and back to Minn.. would think if they dont do better than 4-4 they probably fall out. Minn will be tough and RIT is playing well. BU who knows.
it starts with Harvard and 4 against Clarkson/Union teams right below us in PWR. if we finish wel; enough to get to top 2-3 in the ECAC we will probably be OK in PWR by year end if we get to the ECAC Semis

Yup. If we do about as well as we hope to do, we'll finish about where we hope to finish.

Thanks, Yogi. ::whistle::
ASU players don't need under-the-table envelopes from alums. The frequent flyer miles are worth more.

For the record: After a few random mid-week games, Cornell is #13 in the PWR going into tonight's action.

After the win over Hahvahd, as other results come in we're bouncing around #10-11.
With Q off tonight and Yale losing to Clarkson, we've moved into a tie with Yale for 2nd place. We're 2 points behind Q, which has played 3 more league games than we.
Harvard win over Colgate pushes us up to #9 before our game's even over.

Which also means our SoS is going to take a huge hit. With that said, just win Bâby.
Toasty warm (http://www.tbrw.info/?/weekly_Updates/cornell_Warmth_ECAC.html) (5 games above .500) in conference play after 10 GP for the 8th time in the last 18 seasons. We are very, very spoiled.
