Bardreau playing in the Islanders - Flyers preseason game tonight.
Even though he's an Islander now, he got some nice praise from the Flyers announcers regarding his toughness and how he came back from his injury at Cornell.
Rangers recall Morgan Barron, at least temporarily.

Although not in the pros, I assume that Galajda is an alumnus, so I guess this is the best thread to ask the question, when not playing against Cornell, are people here rooting for Notre Dame?

No.
No. No love for our transfers. No hate either, and I will root for them in the pros, but while we're in HS if my ex is going to the prom with somebody else then she can fuck right off.

Someone posted something about how the Ivy League took too long to say that players like Galadja were eligible this year, so I don't really blame him.
Notre Dame is sorta tough to root for, though.

I'm not blaming him, I realize it was entirely Cornell's fault.
I'm saying it's too painful.
I will root for Matt to win the Hobey with Notre Dame, though, for the Nelson Laugh at Cornell's ineptitude.
Watching the USA-Canada women's match tonight (from home, not in person). Johnston playing with the first line and the #1 PP along with Jenner. Saulnier, O'Neill, and Zandee-Hart also playing. Micah was getting some love for her early shifts from the TSN announcers.

I hope so! I'm going to the Sabres-Rangers game next Friday with my son.
Does anyone know what's happened to Anthony Angello? As far as I can tell, he came close to making the Pens this year but wound up in the AHL. But he hasn't played in any games, and I can't find any reports of injuries or anything.
And I'm a pens fan who tries to stay on top of this sort of thing.

Micah Zandee-Hart getting some good ice time (and some praise from the TSN announcers) in tonight's Canada-USA game in St. Louis. She's even skating on the power play.
Johnston, Saulnier, and Jenner are also playing, of course, but Kristin O'Neill is not playing as far as I can tell.
Morgan Barron picked up his first NHL assist, on the third goal in the Rangers' Saturday game at Anaheim. He won the faceoff that led to goal.
Riley Nash off to Arizona after a brief stop in Tampa, picked up off waivers.
Anthony Angello getting called up by the Penguins. Last second COVID replacement.
Well, Angello got like four minutes of ice time, which is not a great sign.

Quote from: DafatoneWell, Angello got like four minutes of ice time, which is not a great sign.
FWIW, Barron got scarce minutes too when he'd been called up previously. But now, thanks partly to Covid, he's getting a regular fourth-line shift. I think I've even seen him on the PP or PK. Certainly the Ranger announcers are giving him lots of props. He's proving that he can handle the Show.
If I'm not mistaken, the entire fourth line came off the taxi squad. Having played together in Hartford has been a big advantage.

Morgan Barron: Rangers have a 'different vibe' this season

Morgan Barron did not play today, and I don't see him listed on the Rangers roster.

From lohud.com, which I thought was an Israeli site, realized it's Lower Hudson.
Why the NY Rangers should consider playing Morgan Barron for now — and the future (https://www.lohud.com/story/sports/nhl/rangers/2022/01/18/why-ny-rangers-should-consider-keeping-morgan-barron-lineup/6567243001/)
Basically: Barron is 66% on faceoffs and 56 minutes on-ice without a goal-against, he's building "confidence," and playing him now makes him more valuable in the 2022-2023 season, although it's the Devils and Islanders who should declare this season a loss.
Barron is back in the lineup tonight for the Rangers against the Panthers. Q's Chase Priskie in the lineup for Florida.
Quote from: scoop85Barron is back in the lineup tonight for the Rangers against the Panthers. Q's Chase Priskie in the lineup for Florida.
Quinnipiac fans turned out at the Garden to see Priskie and make him feel at home: They left midway through the second period for a party.
Morgan Barron in the Rangers' Groundhog Day 5-2 win over the Panthers at MSG: He was on-ice for 6:55, least of anyone who played. 1 shot on goal, 2 penalty minutes, 4 hits.

Not NHL (and don't think I've seen it here), but Kyle Betts signed an ATO with the Colorado Eagles (AHL) last Wednesday.
Still awaiting his pro debut as he did not skate in either of the team's games this weekend.
Sunday was Matt Moulson Bobblehead Night with the Hershey Bears. Moulson played 24 games fall 2021 and has been out since the end of December with back surgery, which the team said was successful. He's 38 years old. If he can play more, good, but at some point as 40 approaches, you should think about how you'll feel at 50 and 60.

Morgan Barron traded.
QuoteForward Andrew Copp said on Thursday that, one year ago at this time, he started looking at houses and hoped that the Jets would sign him long-term. How quickly everything can change.
Winnipeg traded Copp and a 2023 sixth-round pick to the New York Rangers for prospect Morgan Barron, two conditional second-round picks and a fifth-round pick on Monday ahead of the NHL's trade deadline. Copp has 13 goals and 35 points in 56 games this season for the Jets.
The conditions of the picks: The first 2022 second-round pick will become the Rangers' 2022 first-round pick if the Rangers advance to the Eastern Conference final and Copp plays in at least 50 percent of their playoff games. For the other second-round pick, it will either be St. Louis' 2022 second-round pick or the Rangers' second-round pick in 2023.
After the trade, Winnipeg assigned Barron to the AHL's Manitoba Moose.
The Barron trade really depresses me. I've been a Rangers season ticket holder since the first Roosevelt administration, or so it seems, and have been waiting for a Cornell player to wear the Blue after having to watch Vesey, Blackwell, and Fox, though for obvious reasons I've grown to love Fox. Had high hopes for Morgan on Broadway, but the Rangers have a logjam of bottom six forwards and want to make a big move this season. Hopefully, for me, not a disastrous Dolan motivated move. Good luck to MB in Winnipeg, maybe playing for Dave Lowry, who should have soft spot for a Cornellian.

As a Rangers fan I'm sorry to see him go, but Gallant didn't seem to like him and as long as he's the coach I think Morgan would've been stuck in the AHL. With Winnipeg he'll get a fresh start and should have an easier path to the NHL.

Yes indeedy. This is good for Barron! The Rangers are my mortal enemy now!
Definitely will be better for Barron. More ice, a Cornell friendly coach. To my eye, he was better than a few of the people Gallant has been playing in New York, but with such a young team, I suspect the coach wanted a bit more age in the lineup. Morgan also looked a little slow at the NHL level to me. He's definitely mastered the AHL, so it's NHL or bust now. Let go Jets!

So are we all pretty sure he's going to be in the Jets' lineup, not just a yo-yo? (I mean assuming he performs ok.)
With Malott also in Lose-a-peg (schmoozing, under the covers) it's too bad Riley Nash isn't there anymore. The Red Line!*

That AHL team being the Syracuse Crunch. Back home-ish for now.
Definitely good news for Morgan Barron. Stinks not being able to see him on the Rangers but the kid wouldn't play for a couple of years here. Average ice time of < 9 mins a game is tough unless you're just a plugger. He needs to play NHL games and real minutes to get into the game. Good luck too him.
I hope he can find a Taveras and capture that Moulson Magic of right place, right time.
Does Winnipeg suck enough to win the lottery?
Edit: 29-34. Not nearly awful enough. That's Isles territory, not Canadiens (17-46).

Leahy had a good season. Clearly the best defenseman (only positive +/- for all skaters) on a really bad team. I'm not surprised—always liked his game. Regush looks to have gotten injured midway through the season. Miami was also awful this year.
Donaldson I can't understand. Clearly not being properly utilized.

Maybe he's just a victim of being incorporated into their system later. You don't shake up a defending national champion for one guy unless his name is Kariya.

Morgan was interviewed on TSN after the first period, however, which was nice. No earth-shattering revelations; just the usual "glad to be here, everyone has been really welcoming" chatter.

Imagine knowing the last act of a coach before they were fired was to sign you.

I hope that, during his four years at Cornell, Nate learned that correlation does not equal causation.

Well, of course, and that effectively disarms my joke.
But seriously, it's easy to think of a scenario where there was a toss-up between programs and this coaching staff was the deciding factor. Then, the very next day...poof.
If you enter the portal is that it for your current team? You don't gotta go home but you can't stay here? (I know McDonald can't come back for other reasons.)

I was wondering about RPI's Zach Dubinsky in that regard. He also transferred to Michigan State. Interestingly, the 4 transfers to MSU all came from the ECAC.

I'd like to know when the 5 year NCAA eligibility ends. Was everyone who was an active freshman (or older) player during 2019-20 given an extra year of eligibility?

I'm surprised and sad that there was a much successful poaching from RPI. Smith seems to have the program moving up and yet these guys are bailing.
Maybe they were worried about losing matriarchal protection with Shirley hitting the road.

I wonder whether all the transfer crap will make it easier or harder to build a program.
everyone got a 5th yr from the NCAA just not from the Ivy League..

In some sports places with big enough SIL offers will certainly have an advantage in the free agent market opened by the portal.
Yesterday the Colorado Eagles assigned Kyle Betts to the Utah Grizzlies, their ECHL affiliate.
Quote from: TrotskyIf you enter the portal is that it for your current team?
No. It only opens the possibility. I guess it could be different for other sports but a Cornell wrestler entered the portal then stayed when the Ivies authorized a grad year. I think the portal authorizes other coaches to speak to you if you initiate contact, or, if you allow it, for other coaches to reach out to you first.
ncaa just voted down a request from the Ivies to give everyone the extra yr they lost. I dont think the grad think is more than just the 1 yr exception though.

What does this mean in practice?
they only gave the yr to teams that played the 21 season.. since the ivies sat out none of those kids get that year back now unless they were a 5th yr grad and went and played somewhere else i guess.

To be fair, the purpose of the NCAA not counting 2020-21 as a year of eligibility was designed to encourage schools to compete during that year despite the uncertainty of whether teams could play anything close to a regular schedule. Without the exception, programs might have been reluctant to risk wasting a year of student-athletes' eligibility on what could have become an aborted season.
In the short term it worked. Most institutions participated in athletics during the 2020-21 season, and the decision to compete didn't cause a public-health disaster.
However, for the next few years we will feel the ripple effects of the exemption.
Quote from: upprdeckthey only gave the yr to teams that played the 21 season.. since the ivies sat out none of those kids get that year back now unless they were a 5th yr grad and went and played somewhere else i guess.
But my question is—what does this mean in practice? At other schools, the kids are all getting five years of eligibility. Does this mean the kids who enrolled at the Ivies during 2020-21 don't get that extra fifth year? Or they don't even get four years?

The players' lives were certainly not endangered by having to play in 2020-21. To the extent anyone's life was endangered, that player could have taken a leave of absence.

Exactly!
When Duke cancelled their lax season because of the rape scandal, the NCAA gave those kids an extra year of eligibility, even though they had already played half of a season.
I think there is an element in the NCAAs that particularly enjoys saying "Fuck You Ivies"

It's the fifth year they're not getting. So for example, Carlie Littlefield played 3 seasons at Princeton, didn't compete in 2020-21, then played at North Carolina this past season for 4 seasons of actual competition, but the NCAA is counting 2021-22 as her fifth year of eligibility.

Thanks. So this vote does not actually hurt the Ivy League schools, which don't permit fifth year players (grad students) anyway. It does hurt Ivy players who would like to play a fifth year at another school.
you still get 5 yrs.. you just dont get 5 yrs as a grad at the ivies. anyone who missed the yr at an ivy still can play that 5th yr somewhere else.. what it does mean is that an ivy kid doesnt get that yr as a do over yr. its 5 to play 4 unless you played yr that then its 5 to play 5.
So the reality is the ivy kids didnt really lose anything in that way, they just didnt gain the extra yr like some did and they cant easily use it at their own school.

My understanding from Weder's example/explanation is that essentially 2020-21 did not count towards the four years of eligibility, whether you are an Ivy or non-Ivy player. So, everyone, even the Ivy players, gets four years of eligibility excluding 2020-21. The difference is that the Ivy players did not get to play in 2020-21 on top of their other four years of eligibility, while basically everyone else did (which in effect gives the non-Ivy players five years of eligibility).
The grad transfer issue is separate. The Ivies do not allow graduate students to play, period. There was a one-time exemption to this rule, for 2021-22. That exemption has not been and will not be extended. But the NCAA vote at issue does not have anything to do with grad transfers. (Unless I'm misunderstanding something.)
The NCAA vote also means that our class of 2021 has no eligibility remaining. This is the case whether they played a fourth year at Cornell (Betts, Haiskanen, Locke), or elsewhere (Donaldson, Galajda). Regush and Leahy have one year of eligibility remaining (so does Andreev).
We don't have an "opponents' alumni in the pros" section, but I thought I'd put this here. Adam Mitchell, Colgate '05, just announced his retirement after 17 seasons playing professional hockey in Germany. He just won the DEL2 championship with Löwen Frankfurt, which he captained from 2018-2021 (which is why I know about his activities; his name and number are on my replica jersey), earning them promotion into the DEL (Deutsche Eishockey Liga). He was previously on the Hannover Scorpions (yes, named after the band), winning the DEL title in 2010, and also played in Landsberg, Mannheim, Hamburg, and Straubing. I believe I read somewhere that he'll be moving to a coaching position with Bad Nauenheim in the DEL2.
There's a nice interview at https://www.loewen-frankfurt.de/nc/saison/aktuelles/detail/routinier-adam-mitchell-beendet-seine-karriere/ which says, loosely translated,
Quote from: Adam MitchellI came to Germany 17 years ago, with the plan to just play hockey for a few years and travel a bit through Europe, and then afterwards find another job in Canada. Fortunately it didn't turn out that way! Here I met a wonderful woman, learned Germany, had two lovely little girls, and acquired German citizenship. Germany has become our home, although all that was actually not my Plan A.
Four years ago, my family and I came to Frankfurt, with the single great goal of promotion into the DEL. Now I can hang up my skates with a smile and a tear in my eye, because we've finally done it!
I give thanks out the depths of my heart to my family, all of my teammates, the coaches, trainers, staff and fans for their support and friendship in the last few years. I'm now looking forward to the next challenges that my life will bring!
A bit of backstory on why the promotion is such a big deal: the Frankfurt Lions were a founding member of the DEL in 1994, and won the championship in 2004, but went bankrupt in 2010, and the reformed Löwen Frankfurt had to start over in the lower divisions, and have been working and playing their way up for the last twelve years. The Löwen won the DEL2 title in 2017, but the DEL and DEL2 only reestablished promotion and relegation 2019. The Löwen won the regular season in 2020 before the playoffs were cancelled, so this was their second chance to win promotion after the Bietigheim Steelers took the title in 2021. (Frankfurter ice hockey fans are still holding their breath, since the DEL has to approve the promotion/license paperwork the club just submitted, and the financial situation took a hit this year when the Löwen dropped the Russian bank VTB as their biggest sponsor.)

I hope so, but I never managed to see either the Scorpions or the Indians play in the year I was in Hannover, since we had a two-year-old keeping us occupied.

Riley Nash in the lineup for game 3 of the Stanley cup final series. If the Bolts win the series (currently 2 wins - 0 in favor of Avs), Nash will be a Stanley cup winner and have his name etched on the cup. Given that he played less than half the regular season games, he needed to play at least 1 final series game to have his name auto etched on the cup.
In this round and last round, Bolts are 0-4 without Nash and 5-0 with him.
I'm lowkey rooting for the Avs, but Nash on the cup is absolutely the best part of TB winning if they do.

Looks like the odds of Nash getting his name etched just dropped. Avs win in OT.

Little surprised MacDonald couldn't crack the lineup, given how much work the Avs put into hiding Jack Johnson. He only had 8:25 of ice time in game six! That's close to half as much as the next lowest.
But hey, if it ain't broke...

Meanwhile, Toews becomes the first Q player to have his name on the Cup. Pecknold was gloating about it in an article in the New Haven Register. Too bad Riley Nash couldn't have gotten his name on it for Tampa. That would have been quite a story with his playing on three different NHL teams this year along with a stint in the AHL. His fourth line played pretty well in the series, with lots of offensive zone time, but they were on the ice for game-winning goal in Game 6.

They'd probably have to submit a long list for him to be on it. He ranked 32nd in number of games played this year (8 games) and they only used 23 players in the playoffs, so there'd be a lot of others ahead of him. But it would be great to see his name on it.

Denis Ladouceur, a Canadian and former COO at a Wall Street firm and transplanted New Yorker, felt as if the city was missing one main meeting place: a sports bar devoted to hockey fans. In December 2021, he opened The Canuck on Ninth Avenue in Chelsea to appeal to the legion of hockey fans in the New York area that follows the New York Rangers, New York Islanders and New Jersey Devils as well as fellow Canadians who are fans of the Montreal Canadians or Toronto Maple Leaf's.

Nice. You would think that they would mention that he was a former professional player.

We could have used that bar circa 2000 when you needed to find a bar for a college hockey or tournament viewing event and only they had access to some oddball satellite network. So much better now with streaming and currently with streaming that has decent video quality, no dropouts and the camera guy actually tracks the puck.

I hate to think of Disney as the people's company, but hey, if Ron DeSantis hates them, they can't be all bad.
The price of the Disney Bundle (= ESPN+, Disney+, Hulu) is not going up. Disney has painted itself into the marketing corner by treating the Bundle niche as something families can share, even if they're in different zip codes. So if your grand kids are in California watching Frozen on Disney+, your siblings in Colorado binge watch Hulu, and you,stuck in Jersey, join then all in watching Cornell sports on ESPN+, the good news is that Disney will let you share the Bundle subscription for a total price of $13.99 per mo. including Hulu with ads and $19.99 per mo. including ad-free Hulu in the combo.

interesting because i also know that ESPN is starting to implement a thing about sharing your acct outside the home ip range. So not sure how t hey allow sharing but also limit use outside the house.. I was told they plan on enforcing it so that if you use the service often outside your home they will warn you then enforce a penalty. they have been tracking this for awhile.. maybe they allow part of the plan and not other parts?

cellphones know your location as well. if you live in Ny and you use it in NY and your kid logs in from Buffalo and it happens multiple times they start to track it and if it starts happening at roughly the same time like cornell hockey games they will see it.. they have not turned it on yet but its in their queue of things to do. much like netflix is doing already in a tests runs now.
As an expat living in China all the geolocation restrictions are depressing. Sometimes you just want to pay money to watch hockey/lacrosse/wrestling and you still can't because the services either flag you as using a VPN (sites are blocked in China so require a VPN to access) or being out of region (even with a VPN set to my 'home' region it's becoming more common to be flagged). Unfortunately, I and others like me are basically no % of their business.
This is nuts. If I'm vacationing away from home I can't use my subscription to ESPN+?
I think some of the geolocation things are a rights issue rather than an ESPN restriction. The ECAC has a deal with another provider for international rights to its games. That said, you can use ESPN+ anywhere in the U.S.; it sounds more like they are cracking down on multiple users logged in to the same account from different locations.
Quote from: Al DeFlorioThis is nuts. If I'm vacationing away from home I can't use my subscription to ESPN+?
ESPN+ has never worked for me if I happen to be outside the US.

I can't remember if I've ever tried to use ESPN+ outside the US, but I've definitely watched live ESPN channels via my cable provider log-in while abroad (using a VPN).
the pt is they can turn off using a vpn on a computer pretty easily if they wanted to actually limit the watching which probably is a violation of the agreement anyway. the gambling sites already have to do it. and if you tried using a cellphone its even easier for them to control.

We can only hope that offering college hockey players a year or two longer of eligibility to play college hockey just might encourage them to take up education while they aren't playing/practicing hockey.
I saw a photo of Jake MacDonald with his dad and the Stanley Cup so the fact that he was rostered but did not play in the Finals apparently was enough for him to be seen as deserving of a day with the Cup. Way to go Jake!

Getting a new email is easy, if you're willing to make that one change. You could subscribe to a new account at the old price for one more year and let the old account's subscription expire.
I just signed up for a year for the first time. I also used a credit card "offer" that gave me 20% off any charge to ESPN+, so I wound up paying $56 for 12 months. Hockey and lax seasons are worth that alone. They should give me another discount if I agree to watch CU football.

I don't know if this deal is still available, but we signed up for a package of ESPN+, Disney+ and Hulu (with ads) bundled together at $13.99/month about a year ago, which at the time was less than the total of any two of those individually, and that's still what we're getting charged. Of course if all you want is ESPN+ that's still more than $99.99/year, but we use the others all the time - many of the best feel-good sports movies ever are on Disney+.

cant really get worked up about ads.. its the way it all will be soon.. And the espn+ cost is still cheaper than it ever was on the other platform for vastly more content.

Seems to me what rankles is the size of the increase, not so much the resulting cost. Not to mention what the suit that runs Disney is paid ($32.5 million).

2023: More price hikes since the corporate lines on the graphs aren't going up fast enough. There are lots of confusing bundles, but for the crowd here, ESPN+ is going up from $10/mo to $11/mo. or $110/yr. Hulu and Disney get jacked up more, but only if you hate constant ads being stuffed down your gullet. The good news is that the increases don't hit until Oct. 12, so there's time to make decisions.
I still don't understand how these services allegedly lose a half a billion, but I don't work at a business factory. To me, the crying of poverty from the muthaf-ing Mouse smells a lot like MLB owners weeping about how impoverished they are during collective bargaining times.
Disney, of the if-you-can't-beat-em-buy-literally-everything model.
Ugh, now I have to check my bundle. It was a good deal to get Disney (for the kids plus the odd Star Wars TV show) and ESPN and then occasionally watch something on Hulu.
I have 7 phones on my Verizon Wireless account. One of the users asked for a hotspot (over 18 months ago). For $10 or so she got her hotspot and we also had included ESPN+, Hulu and Disney+ with the hotspot. I've been wondering if it's about to increase.
I also have no idea if this bundle is still available. I just checked the account and see her line is only $9.97 more than the others.

This year's team would have (at least) Malone and Tupker on it if Cornell was permitted grad students. Probably the difference between being nationally competitive and being an up and coming young team that would finish in the 20s in the Pairwise.
a place that makes bank on its grad students but doesnt let its own grad students play.
