Not promising to start all of them, but if this works, I'll start the next one. :)

Harvard wins in overtime in front of an apparently empty building.  Clarkson and Brown also advance.  Our game is at 4 tomorrow.

Lynah sounded like Lynah tonight. That is good.

4pm? Eanhhhhhh... I hope folks show!

Late in the game, during Cornell's last powerplay, I thought we had scored and that the puck had just popped out of the net quickly. I was sure the refs would check at the next stoppage, but the next stoppage was the end of the game. That's the far end of the rink for me, but even so, I can usually hear a pipe, and I didn't. I tried to find last night's game on ESPN+ just now, but it's not yet in "Replay" and no longer in "Up And Coming", and the link from the Cornell Hockey Schedule page is no longer active.

So...can someone who was watching on video elaborate on the play I'm talking about? Did the announcers say anything to indicate that they too thought the puck may have been in and out?

Thanks!

We have a home ice disadvantage.  All thse teams that play in front of no one at home get fired up by our crowd.  If we don't draw as well, those teams are STILL playing in front of a larger than usual crowd and our guys aren't. **]

Based on the highlights it looked and sounded like there were predominantly Dartmouth fans in the building. Probably mostly alums in the Boston area

It's always a treat to read the Harvard players' quotes in the Crimson about "it's such a rush to play in front of a loud, engaged crowd."  I'll take passive aggressive for a hundred, Alex.

Maybe they're referring specifically to when we come to town.

Worse.  They were referring to playing at Lynah.

Rick Bennett with the weirdest pregame I've ever heard.  It sounded like the "CAN YOU DIG IT????!!!!" speech in Warriors.
