Cornell beats Dartmouth 5-1 and takes over the top spot in ECAC standings with games in hand.
And Colgate women beat Harvard 5-2 early on Friday afternoon.
I missed most of the first period, but Cornell got a pretty dominant 7-0 win over Harvard today. No box score yet, but I'm pretty sure the top line had zero points today. Really great to have this kind of depth.
After the women played two uninspired games in the Capital District last weekend, it was quite a different story back at Lynch, especially yesterday's 7-0 demolition of a solid Harvard team. Like the men the women sit at #3 in the pairwise.
From a USAToday article on the NHL All-star event:
"The women's 3-on-3 was a smashing success as a new event. Canada beat the U.S 2-1 as Rebecca Johnston and Melodie Daoust silenced "U-S-A! U-S-A!" chants with a goal apiece, and Ann Renee Desbiens was the biggest star with 18 saves."
Watching the ESPN+ feed of Cornell at Colgate. The Raiders look like they are wearing 70s Phillies powder blue unis. Cornell up 2-zip and dominating midway through the first.

I watched it on TV. Johnston's goal was a nice shot. Turned on the speed and got past her defender on a breakaway. Definite goal scorers goal. Fortino also played well.

Cornell up 4-0 in the third with a 5x3 coming up, late in the third. O'Neill already with the hat.

For a team hovering around .500 SLU looked pretty good. They seem to have a very good freshman class, so they'll likely be a threat the next few years.
womens hockey needs a circle where you cant have 5 people guarding the goal
#2 Cornell leading # 10 Harvard 2-1 in the third at Bright.
Final 4-1, including a nice SHG
Dartmouth goalie keeping the Green in it, with Cornell up 2-0 late despite a huge advantage in play.

Pretty much like an extended power play.
ENG to make the final 3-0. Posted stats say shots were 39-13 but that doesn't reflect the time of possession. Dartmouth also had 26 blocked shots to Cornell's 7.
Win gives Cornell the Ivy title.
It was somewhat humorous how the Dartmouth announcers were praising Dartmouth's performance. No offense to them, but in the roughly 50% of the game that I watched, they didn't come close to sniffing a goal.

I get it, though. Playing the national #2 they expected a blow out. Props to them for keeping it respectable.
The women are getting overlooked because of the men's start, but this is a great team. (21-1-3). Only Wisco (26-2-1) is comparable. F4 is in Boston; I'd love to see them matched up in front of a pro-Cornell crowd.

But that means there was a full half of the game where they did. Sounds evenly matched!

Cornell Women host Union for Senior Night at 3:00 pm at Lynah on Saturday. Hope to see a good crowd there.
Good news is the women defeated Union 5-3 this afternoon.
Bad news is they gave up 3 goals in the 3rd period including 2 PPG.
Women won 5-3. They were up 5-1 with 10 mins left, then gave up two PP goals in the last 7 minutes.
QF against SLU underway and Cornell is up 3-0 at the first intermission. All three goals scored within a minute including a penalty shot after a Saints player covered up the puck in the crease when it got behind the goalie.

7-2 final
Went to the women's game yesterday - my very first women's hockey game ever. It's a very different style game than the men's game.
In the women's game, because of the "no checking" it's a lot more stick work on defense. In the men's game, you just bull your way through the defense. There also seemed to be a lot fewer scrums in the corners in the women's game. It leads to more passing, more skating, and a more fluid game with lots of cycling.
I also noticed a lot of difference in our goalies' styles. On dump-in shots on net, Galajda knocks the puck down in front of him, and then plays it with his stick to a teammate. Browning uses her blocker to simply deflect the puck into the corner for a teammate to pick it up. I wonder if that's because of her experience playing with the boys in HS. It gave her faster reflexes, and since the women's shots aren't quite as fast as the men's, she has that extra split second to react.
Of course, the fact that it was 3-0 before you could blink made it a lot more relaxing than the men's game, too :-D
Beautiful shorty by Graham in the third makes it 3-1, after a couple of goals for each side in the second and Kristin O'Neiil's go ahead goal earlier in the third period.
St. Lawrence scores an EAG to make it 3-2, and the women make a few boneheaded plays at the end, but take game two. Cornell was the better team, but St. Lawrence has some terrific freshmen and will be a team to watch the next few years.
Big Red onto the semifinals!
In today's Game 3s, Harvard beat Yale in 3OT and Princeton beat Quinnipiac in 2OT, so the semifinal matchups Saturday at Lynah are: (1) Cornell vs. (4) Harvard and (2) Princeton vs. (3) Clarkson.

The only game I've seen was several years ago and it was a dilly, the 8-7 triple overtime win over BU in the 2012 ECAC final! https://cornellbigred.com/news/2012/3/10/WICE_0310121319.aspx The photo heading the article caught me standing in the front row on the far left, clapping over my head. I'm in red and my wife's in white.
I remember thinking that the stick work was crisper than in the men's games (typically at MSG), and wondering whether that might be because there was not as big a concern about getting clobbered.
To see the Cornell women playing in person was to appreciate how dominant a team this is. And yet SLU came close to forcing a game three. Thank goodness for the SHG the men could not quite get later in the day.
Now's your chance - Cornell Women host the ECAC semis on Saturday and finals on Sunday.

According to this (https://cornellbigred.com/facilities/lynah-rink/9), Lynah has 6 locker rooms.
I think that includes the ones for officials and the women's lacrosse team, so that leaves 2 at most for visiting hockey teams.
I thought I dimly remember one of the things they touted about the Lynah renovation was they built out four full hockey locker rooms to support a tournament. But I could be sundowning.
Quote from: TrotskyI thought I dimly remember one of the things they touted about the Lynah renovation was they built out four full hockey locker rooms to support a tournament. But I could be sundowning.
That's what I remember, too.
Locker rooms was a big part of the last Reno.
The women's lacrosse team uses the old men's hockey locker room, I believe. Not sure who (if anyone) uses the old women's hockey locker room. Are there more than 2 locker rooms in the expansion? That would make it awkward since the stairs go directly to the home bench.
Before the expansion, there were three locker rooms, a trainers' room, video room and office space downstairs. Trainers, video and all offices other than the rink manager moved upstairs with the team locker rooms, leaving square footage to be allocated elsewhere although I haven't personally toured the area since the reno occurred. Spent a lot of time down there with youth hockey players in the 90's, however....
i think there are spaces now that can be used as locker rooms, but really only 2 real locker rooms. the others are larger spaces with benches

There appear to be two visiting-team-quality locker rooms (and the referee room) at the open / Zamboni end of the rink. Friday and Saturday, that allowed the St. Lawrence women to have one locker room and St. Lawrence then Clarkson men to have another.

"It's pretty amazing having people recognize us when we're out to dinner or getting coffee before the game and saying 'good luck.' It's not really something female hockey players are necessarily used to. Just being apart of it gives me the chills — it's amazing and everything I could have hoped for."

I saw there was a major penalty On Harvard in the 3rd. I hope everyone is okay for tomorrow..
The recipient of the hit was on the ensuing power play so I's assume all is okay for tomorrow
According to this PWR predictor (https://www.bcinterruption.com/boston-college-bc-eagles-womens-hockey/2020/2/23/21149480/what-if-the-2020-ncaa-womens-hockey-tournament-pairwise-predictor-frozen-four-boston-wisconsin), the only way Cornell does not finish at No. 1 in the Pairwise is if it loses to Princeton and Wisconsin wins the WCHA and UConn wins Hockey East and Robert Morris wins the CHA. But let's just beat Princeton and not worry about any other result.
EDIT: I didn't realize the CHA final was today and that Mercyhurst had won. So then Cornell will be No. 1 in the PWR regardless of what happens tomorrow.

Loss, if the OT tie rule was in effect, they would have played an initial 5 minute OT immediately, like all regular season games, then a 20 minute OT. But no ties in postseason.
Our game is at 2 Saturday 3/14 @ Lynah.
Edit: let's hope that we can watch it there.

After the embarrassing loss to Quinnipiac, Coach Schafer seems to have righted the ship of the men's hockey team. Heading into the nationals, I'm hoping Coach Derraugh and the women's team can use the pain of Saturday's loss to bring the team back to the level it's capable of playing.
I also have some other questions. This Sun article (https://cornellsun.com/2020/03/08/w-hockey-ncaa-placement/) gives the brackets. Note that three Big Ten teams and three ECAC teams are in the eight-team field.
For the semifinals and Finals the bracket diagram also gives the location of and names the TV network broadcasting the semifinal and final games. The games are all at BU's Agganis Arena and, in all three cases, the broadcaster is the Big Ten Network.
Now maybe I can understand this for top bracket, which includes an OSU v Minnesota match up, so its semifinal will include (at least and at most) one B1G team. But the bottom bracket includes only one B1G team, Wisconsin, and two ECAC teams, Clarkson and Princeton, who could possibly meet in the semifinal and then advance to the championship game, where one of them might play Cornell.
So how does the Big Ten Network get exclusive rights to televise these games? Boston is not exactly Big-Ten territory. And would a Big Ten audience tune in to watch an all-ECAC semifinal and final?
And what about the fans of the other teams? ECAC fans have subscribed to ESPN+, but it looks as if HEA did not televise its women's championship (https://www.uscho.com/scoreboard/hockey-east-women/), nor did the CHA televise its (https://www.uscho.com/scoreboard/cha-women/). Nonetheless, it's highly unlikely that fans from any of these leagues subscribe to the Big Ten Network. Fox Sports does carry BTN shows, but what if an ECAC cord-cutter only shelled out for ESPN+ and has no cable sports package that allows access to Fox Sports?
In just seems odd that a conference-based network from a different region would have the broadcasting rights while a national, conference-independent network like ESPN+ -- or even a regional, conference-independent network like NESN -- does not.
Can any of you explain this?
Quote from: SwampyI also have some other questions. This Sun article (https://cornellsun.com/2020/03/08/w-hockey-ncaa-placement/) gives the brackets. Note that three Big Ten teams and three ECAC teams are in the eight-team field.
For the semifinals and Finals the bracket diagram also gives the location of and names the TV network broadcasting the semifinal and final games. The games are all at BU's Agganis Arena and, in all three cases, the broadcaster is the Big Ten Network.
Now maybe I can understand this for top bracket, which includes an OSU v Minnesota match up, so its semifinal will include (at least and at most) one B1G team. But the bottom bracket includes only one B1G team, Wisconsin, and two ECAC teams, Clarkson and Princeton, who could possibly meet in the semifinal and then advance to the championship game, where one of them might play Cornell.
So how does the Big Ten Network get exclusive rights to televise these games? Boston is not exactly Big-Ten territory. And would a Big Ten audience tune in to watch an all-ECAC semifinal and final?

Can't explain it except to say (1) BTN had the games last year and, probably more importantly (2) Wisco and Minny have been dominant teams for years, so BTN figured that at least one if not both of those schools will be in the Frozen Four and it was therefore worth securing the rights.

There isn't a B1G League in women's hockey, or am I mistaken?
In which case it might be that we're lucky they picked up the broadcast. And unlucky that Spectrum doesn't include that channel except for perhaps on their "Gold"
package screw job. Or again, am I mistaken?

If I remember right, Big Ten Network got the rights to the Frozen Four simply because it was interested in carrying the event and the NCAA really wanted a TV broadcast. Previously, the games were only available at the NCAA site. (And good for BTN, which does promote its member schools even in sports it does not sponsor, like women's hockey.)
I seem to also remember that ESPN has first right of refusal to NCAA tournaments other than men's basketball, so obviously they weren't interested in the women's hockey.
No B1G women's hockey league. They still use WCHA.
This is an NCAA event and I suspect they put it out for bid and B1G Network was highest bidder. As mentioned, it's probably because of Minny & Wisc. They get reasonable crowds and considering the number of times either has won it, there will likely be a reasonable viewing audience. Simple and we should be happy that someone carries it. Can root for Clarkson and OSU to upset the works.
is it going to be btn or btn+? btn+ is carried on flo.
Quote from: ugarteis it going to be btn or btn+? btn+ is carried on flo.
It's BTN.
Quote from: ugarteis it going to be btn or btn+? btn+ is carried on flo.
The BTN website says Fox Sports carries BTN shows. So if you already have a cable package that gives you Fox Sports, you're probably ahead of the curve.
The good news: I get Big 10 Network at home.
The bad news: For the semi-finals I hope to be in Lake Placid, so lord knows what TV options will be available to me.
Not much here, but it's all that's out there so far.

The package we have on FiOS, which we had to get in order to receive any of the specialty sports channels besides just plain ESPN, includes BTN. But for some reason not NESN, to the eternal dismay of dss28, die-hard Red Sox fan.
Fios has BTN standard and then a raft of BTN Ochos if you spring for it.

I didn't realize ELynah would change the URL. I went back an put a space after the colon. Now people should be able to see the correct URL.
Maybe some genius out there can explain why a perfectly good URL, with things like "cornellbigred" in its path, displays on this forum as only the top-level part of the URL.

It also just occurred to me that Mike could win the Penrose. I really hope he does. He sure deserves it.

Great Women's Cornell hockey town hall on zoom tonight -- all of the seniors spoke a bit and there were I believe over 220 on the video call. Coach announced the Captains for next year. Very nice effort by the team and the support staff!
