So where do visiting fans sit at StarrClass of 1965 Arena?

Quote from: jtwcornell91So where do visiting fans sit at StarrClass of 1965 Arena?

Not sure where but I just googled and seating capacity is 2222 which could make it difficult to get tickets

Quote from: jtwcornell91So where do visiting fans sit at StarrClass of 1965 Arena?

Hopefully there will be enough of us that anywhere we sit will have other Cornell fans.

I'm planning on going Friday night, and Sunday if necessary, but will stay in Ithaca for the women's NCAA game on Saturday. If their game was a 3:00 PM start instead of the 4:00 PM start I would have seriously considered making the drive and being a little late for the men's game. But I think as it stands I'd be looking at missing about half of the men's game if I left Lynah at the end of the women's game, and that would be for a standard length game.

Colgate goes on Spring Break Friday....tickets should be numerous as the Bahamas is more attractive than hockey to the student body.

I was going to ask where Colgate puts the visiting band but maybe I should ask what the band is doing (travelling back and forth, split band. ...?)

Being the parent of a recent Colgate graduate, the students there seem rather apathetic when it comes to attending sporting events. Even without spring break it likely wouldn't be too difficult to get tickets.

Quote from: jtwcornell91So where do visiting fans sit at StarrClass of 1965 Arena?

The Band has lately been in the corner between Section 13 + 14. Their band is in the 12-13 corner. Sec 13 is for Colgate students and the end that we usually defend in periods 1 & 3.

Most Cornell fans are in the Section 6-12 side. The Cornell bench is on that side and the Colgate townies and their bench is opposite.

I usually go with Sec 8 and stand. It's our offensive end for 1 & 3.

But there are Cornell fans throughout that side, as well as scattered everywhere.

Yeah, but somewhere along the line, "the Cornell game" for Colgate became something on the level of "the Harvard game" for us. Everyone needs a Hated Rival(tm) for the greek system to show up once a year, and we'll do.  (Playoffs are different)

Also, free pizza.

But will there be free gum?  We have almost exhausted our stash from the early December game there.

Not for eating, though.

I like that arena but it's been a tough place for this senior class.

YES!  Current seniors were freshman in 2022.

Revenge is a dish best served........on cold ice!

Having to possibly buy pizza to entice students to attend for 3 whole games might bankrupt Colgate.

We have a moral imperative to win in 2, then.

They famously used to do this at Starr, but I don't know if they need to at the new place, which looks nice on TV anyway, and with a good team to root for.

Heh, I guess it's impossible to find after missing the migration from Age's old forum software.  Until now, as I just happen to have my trusty old drive with me.  It's a bit fitting that Coach Schafer opened his run here with this QF opponent, and it's also interesting to note that current Colgate coach Mike Harder played in that series.

Anyway, I wrote this for some reason late at night in 1999, while homesick in...wait for it... Manhattan Beach, CA. (Ian Shane was born the following year.) Please to enjoy.

With Apologies to Theodore Geisel,

The Ballad of Matt Weder

Gather 'round all ye faithful, and I will tell,
the REAL story of a sieve whose name we all yell.
His name was Weder...played for the Red Raiders,
Just at about the time we started being Colgate haters.
Winter of '96 was the time this all took place,
And our beloved Red were on the home-ice chase.

In January to Hamilton we trekked, it wasn't that far,
but a small group of Cornell fans stomped into Starr.
What luck! Colgate's sieve Dan (not too dull)
Was out for 3 weeks with a groin muscle pull.
The shaky backup came off the pine with some jitters,
He approached warmup pucks like they were some sort of critters.
Matt Weder was his name and we knew that without trying,
by the end of the game, we'd have this boy crying.

But what's this? Before we even knew it,
It was *our* team, not theirs, that was playing like sh*t.
"Fraud!" we screamed, as Colgate scored four,
They were swarming our zone, and looking for more.
We scratched for 3 quick goals, maybe a bit late,
but we could see weakness in the team from the 'gate.
Our comeback fell short, even with a stick check,
Final 4-3.....arghhh...blast it to heck!!
Weder survived this day, his grin extended to China,
but we all knew, he wouldn't be this lucky in Lynah.

A few days later, Colgate's bus rolled to town,
And the Faithful were all ready to taunt them all down.
Colgate looked confident, a-rarin' to go,
they even brought fans that packed Section O.
We were revving up pre-game and starting to taunt,
But Weder egged us on, like he had something to flaunt.
OUTRAGE! How dare he act cocky,
We'll see about that...it's time to play HOCKEY!

The puck was dropped, and granted, he made an OK save,
as Section O went bonkers!! And started to rave:
"WEDER...WEDER...WEDER!" was their forceful yell,
it seemed, almost, that they wrote off Cornell.
A couple of chants later, and shots that juuuust missed,
but there was that sieve Weder shaking his fist!
Section B roared with anger and disgust,
he was taunting us! We'll have his head...we simply must!
You see, no opponent...not even a fool
should act like he owns us...particularly this tool.
A bench-sitter, a nothing! We wanted him dead.
But as a few of us noted...we got in his head.

First came the shots, and then came the goals
Cornell made all the passes, found all the holes.
We kept pouring it on, and ran up the score,
Section B led the cheers, we ALL wanted more!
Now it was our turn. To mock Section O:
"Weder....Weder..." It started to grow.
He certainly didn't act very big anymore.
We pointed out his 5-hole had gotten quite sore.
We laughed in glee as Weder hung his head low,
It was a big mistake to have put on that show.
5-0 we went up, and man it felt sweet!
Payback for the previous game...it was quite a treat.
The mocking chant "Weder" as it had grown,
slowly and surely, turned into a drone:

"Weeeeeeeeederrrrrrrr.....Weeeeeeeeeeeederrrrrrrrr"

The final score was just 6-3,
From the Colgate jinx, we were finally free.

The season marched on, the team continued to gel,
it was apparent the playoffs would go through Cornell.
Coach Schafer delivered some magic of the past,
A cry rose to the rafters: HOME ICE AT LAST!
Once we saw just who we'd be playing,
We smiled and said "Weder better start praying."
It was Colgate, by gum! No way we'd be nice,
Matt would start twitching the minute he hit ice.
But Brenzavich was back, and started in net,
we still wanted Matt to know we didn't forget.

Cornell was ready and dented the twine,
over and over sent us to cloud nine.
And what reappeared after every Red score?
Our new favorite chant...we were writing the lore:

"We want Weder! clap clap clapclapclap We want Weder!"

When what did our wondering eyes should occur??
It was Brenzavich to the bench...and out stepped Matt Weder.
We couldn't believe it! What was Coach Vaughn thinking?
Like sending sheep to the slaughter...he must have been drinking.
We hooted and hollered. Up arose laughs and cheers!
We'd be talking and laughing about *this* over beers.
Some felt sorry for Matt, it seemed like a dream,
A few cheered for *him* as well as our team.
He let in one goal, and that's all we saw,
Vaughn called him back and then that was all.

Cornell won 8-3, game 1 in the books
Our wish for game 2 was that the refs were not crooks.
Game 2 on Saturday saw more of the same:
More Cornell glory and more Colgate shame.
It was over early, Section O melted like acid,
As all of Lynah knew: We were headed to Placid!
"We want Weder" grew louder and louder,
Even the townies could not have been prouder.

8-1 was the final, and the fans stormed the ice,
The team took a victory lap, the seniors went around twice.
We all know in Placid, Cornell lit even more lamps,
when it was all over, we returned home as champs!

And so, young Faithful, keep this story in mind
when you use the "Weder" chant, you know the reason behind.
It's the eve of the Colgate series, still filled with ire,
Perhaps this lesson will help light the fire.
What have we learned? I'll help serve this reminda...

Nobody...but NOBODY...can act cocky in Lynah.

I must make one more rhyme before I slog off to bed,
Cheer loud for me, and of course...

LET'S GO RED!!!

I don't believe it happened at this year's Cornell @ Colgate regular season game, but then again I got to the game late so maybe I missed it.

It's also worth mentioning (for those who weren't there or weren't yet with us) that at least once about two decades ago, the Colgate students got it in their heads to use said free pizza as projectile weapons against us visiting Cornell fans.  Suffice it to say, I personally rank the Colgate student pizza hockey fans among the worst in the ECAC.

Give this man a Grammy.

Goalie, Sieve, Weder

Goalie, Sieve, Weder

A Grammy and a Pulitzer.

You look at the advanced metrics vs Colgate.

We won in OT in a game we outshot them by 30

We lost by 3 in a game that was even but they had 2 PP and an EN goal in the last 12 min.

When we score more than 1 we win

Colgate is scoring 4 goals a game the last 7 but allowing 3.5
Cornell since Feb is scoring 3.8 and allowing 2.1

Lets hope thats a sign of a team getting healthy and creating more.

We had 46 close chances vs Clarkson and scored once. Union 36.
More than enough quality chances those 2 losses we scored once

Wow The Ballad of Matt Weder, the quality content i come here to see all-time classic!

I see Colgate didnt sell many tickets for tonights  game. Almost half or more of every section is available

If I were still in upstate NY tonight, I definitely would've gone to this game. It would've been the opportunity to check Hamilton off the list because I don't see when I'd be going there otherwise

Line chart (https://x.com/JaneMcNally_/status/1900673855792050582/photo/1). DeSantis out, Donaldson in.

I assume that is our band and the horns sound excellent.

Division 3 college hockey has enough interest that I'm seeing betting odds. This from sportsbetting.ag (ag = Antigua). Q and Clarkson are favorites in the ECAC. Cornell, the third favored, is +625. Meaning, bet $100 and win, you'd get a $625 payout, plus your $100 bet back. The strongest favorite is Michigan State at -150, meaning you'd have to bet $150 to get back $100.

Odds of winning their conference championship.

Quinnipiac +175
Clarkson +275
Cornell +625
Colgate +700
Union College +800

Very nice here.  Have you tried turning it off and turning it on again?

Good start.

Like Colgate's sweaters.  These are their nicest by far.

This guy's always been a knowledgeable and earnest announcer, and he's not a homer. But he could learn to take a breather ever once in awhile.

He's a great TV guy but he does no PBP so he'd be murder on radio.

Oh Shane, I'm too old for that shit.

LOL Castagna checks a guy into the bench.

I swear Belpedia has been there for 10 seasons.

Quite the pace to this game. Colgate's forcing us into too many turnovers. We've had a few looks, especially Kempf, but are having trouble getting pucks through to the net.

PENNIES ARE NOT OBSOLETE YET!

Quote from: scoop85This guy's always been a knowledgeable and earnest announcer, and he's not a homer. But he could learn to take a breather ever once in awhile.

John McGraw has been doing it since 2007, and for my money is one of the most prepared broadcasters in the league. I do wish they could find him a decent color commentator, but he does a good job filling the breaks alone.

A quick search shows he's not as old as he sounds, a 2002 grad of I.C.

Best of the league (no particular order): Jason, Grady, John McGraw, Bob Ahlfeld (Clarkson).

There are some really good people these days.  The ECAC has improved tremendously.

Obviously nobody will ever be better than the blond from Yale in the early 00's who Iam not sure ever spoke but JFC.

I'm sure she's a GOP Congressman from CT now or something equally tragic.

is this a powerplay?  Get it the fuck out, boys.

We are getting beaten to the puck early this period.  Son, I am disappoint.

pp #1

Let's see if the PP can at least look like a competent unit.

We refuse to have a man between the circles.

That!  That right there? Do that 10x FFS!

You know it's bad when the other team's announcer points out that the Cornell fans are getting impatient with all the blue line passing on the PP.

Quote from: scoop85Let's see if the PP can at least look like a competent unit.

Well, it was competent compared to most of what we've seen, but too much of the same perimeter passing without any real threat.

Quote from: sah67You know it's bad when the other team's announcer points out that the Cornell fans are getting impatient with all the blue line passing on the PP.

Well, we've been stuck watching it all season.

Quote from: sah67You know it's bad when the other team's announcer points out that the Cornell fans are getting impatient with all the blue line passing on the PP.

Can we start counting at them again?

The thing is we do everything right except run some interference in front of the net.  We are missing the elegantly twirling oak tree who parks above the slot and makes their goalie nervous enough that an oblique shot can get through.

Even though we control possession we make it so easy for them.

It looked the same as it's been all year. Continuous perimeter passing that's way too slow to spread out the defense, culminating in the same bad shot from the outside a full minute into the PP that they could have gotten five seconds into the PP.

I recall Psenicka doing that a whole bunch his freshman year and scoring multiple PPGs: not sure what happened since.

That was a nice little surprise.

He still does it sometimes! My guess is this year, he's been injured a lot and that's why he's shying away from the grittiest areas.

Really liking our dogged forecheck so far: we've created quite a few chances by forcing turnovers and intercepting passes in the neutral zone.

Cornell still dressing a defenseman at forward and he's getting regular shifts. Yes, I know it's because DeSantis is out. But it continues to be nuts.

Honestly, that's the type of goal this team hasn't been scoring. Lacking a finishing-type of player like Moulson or Greening, this team has needed to score more dirty goals. Get two guys on the doorstep hacking away until it squibs in.

This announcer is actually excellent.

I have been impressed by O'Brien.  He knows what he is capable of and plays within his game. He's a good foot soldier and I have no compliants.

Quote from: TrotskyThe thing is we do everything right except run some interference in front of the net.  We are missing the elegantly twirling oak tree who parks above the slot and makes their goalie nervous enough that an oblique shot can get through.

Even though we control possession we make it so easy for them.

I haven't heard the phrase "elegantly twirling oak tree" in far too long.

And there's the high slot tip we need but it's Colgate that does it on the PP. 2-1.

Let's not go a man down again please.

Quite right, and something we'll need to figure out next season. It's not like we've never had a respectable power play, but whether it's personnel, structure, or both, it just isn't working for us.

It's not for lack of me yelling at them I'll tell you that much

So few whistles and the game is racing along. The Union-Dartmouth game is just halfway through the 2nd period.

Print media sometimes get paid by the word. But broadcast announcers?

OK, so I would like to take personal responsibility for the Red Raiders goal.  Kitty was kneading my Lopatka sweater, and it was adorable, so I took it off and slung it across the top of her cat tree for her to sleep on and, BOOM!, immediate Colgate goal.

I have it back on and, until the game is over, kitty can suck it.

I s nt there a way to move thar screener out of Shane's face?

If Cornell's PP had a rule that they have to shoot it on net after 20 seconds or 7 passes, whichever comes first, they would score more goals off of screens/rebounds/deflections than the amount they score off their current awful strategy.

Won't be this year, but needs to happen soon.

The Colgate announcer is.... pretty good. I mean, he was knew how long Cornell's second line was on the ice for the PP. His awareness of what is going on is better than normal college level announcers. Not too much of a homer, Calls the weak penalties etc pretty fair... He should get picked up by AHL or maybe guest call NHL games.

Not throwing away our shot is both cringe and cute.

Please get us a 2-goal lead again, PLEASE.  Please?

I mean. It's totally true, 9 is close to 10.

I'm glad most commentators these days have given up on the dumb "most dangerous lead in hockey" trope.

This announcer is good, don't get me wrong. But as scoop85 said, he is exhausting. Every so often I have to hit mute to take a break since he never gives us one. He'd do well with a color commentator but he also needs to allow for silence from time to time.

My one issue with John McGraw has always been his 1930s patter. It always exhausts my ears and the fact that they turn the treble all the way up doesn't help. As I said above, he's always been the most prepared.

Oh Bancroft. You cost us a pp.

Well, on second thought...

That's a pretty weak "retaliatory" call on Bancroft. All he did was hug the guy.

" Cornell doesn't need to necessarily score here." If that's the case then our power play is firing on all cylinders!

Good effort tonight. Strong defense in our own zone and Shane was solid. Was he badly screened on the Colgate goal? I had the stream muted so couldn't hear if the announcer he a view on it. Enough has been said about the power play, it's just two minutes off the clock and nothing more, there's room for one more assistant on the staff next season and it better be someone who can coach a power play.

Quote from: BearLoverWas he badly screened on the Colgate goal? I had the stream muted so couldn't hear if the announcer he a view on it.

Pretty sure John is also on radio, so he has to say more.  Also pretty sure he goes back to 2004 or so, not 2007 as Rich said, though maybe my memory is a mess - because I remember meeting him around the circuit while I was calling games in the league, which goes back before 2007. He and Bob at Clarkson have always been my favorite non-Cornell guys - though John does have the advantage of being a fellow IC alum. :)

Harder: "I like that we're taking it to them. We'll probably take a few penalties, but it's all right: we'll kill them." Methinks he's speaking more from experience with our PP versus "rah rah" confidence ::looking::

Announcing that's more interesting than an AI generated bot on YouTube but with the same cadence.

And what would life be without a kill and an empty net to close it?

Bancroft can ice it now.

Woody Hayes play without the punch.

Cornell is back.

Love that he can't stop doing play-by-play, even when it's the coaches greeting each other or the handshake line.

The nod to the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament is such a wonderful insider joke. Awful, awful tournament. But how else would I have seen Gallagher scraping up puke?

I declare him "one of us," by which I mean ECAC lovers of "remember that obscure player or moment" conversations.

What a Saturday!  MLax, MBB, WIH and MIH!  LGR!

Cornell hockey did not give a goal in 120 minutes today.

"won in a shootout by none other than Jared Semioff" was an unexpected reference

Colgate yet to win a playoff game under Harder. Two consecutive opponent sweeps at home

I still think Harder was a great choice. He's going to be a thorn for us, just like J.F.

Once upon a time, there was an awful hockey tournament held at the War Memorial in Syracuse called the Syracuse Invitational Tournament. Close, but awful. ECAC insiders called it the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament. The kind of place where their PA system fails, so the Cornell fans have to lead others in singing the national anthems a cappella.

We were up watching us play Providence one year, and in, I think, the beginning of the first overtime, the Providence goalie just pulled up his helmet and yakked all over the place. A hated ECAC ref of the day, Gallagher, had to scrape it up so the game could go on. We got a picture; someone has it somewhere. I think the goalie stayed in!

Noted offensive talent David Adler won it on an fluky deflected floater in the second overtime. I kind of felt bad for the Providence kid, because he had left it all on the ice.

I remember listening to this game on the radio, and the reason I remember it was that shortly after this happened, the Cornell announcer (I don't remember who it was, although this sounds like something Grady would have come up with) said, "So what's Cornell's strategy now, go to the net?"

Tremendous game!!

But wait: now I have to root for Harvard so we can get revenge on Dartmouth?

We've been playing some real Schafer ball over the past few games and I love to see it. I personally don't care who we get to start off next week because it's gonna be someone that we haven't beaten yet this year and we'll probably get the other one in the finals anyway. Just keep winning, I like our odds any time we get to placid.

In typical Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament organization, they played one five-minute OT (this was back when all OT was 5x5), then resurfaced the ice and started playing 20-minute OTs.  According to my notes, the puking was during the first, short OT, and the goalie played for the rest of that period entire 20-minute second OT, and then the third until we scored.  And he also played the consolation game the next day.  I feel sorry for the backup.

It probably will be in the highlights because a goal was awarded.  The power play was winding down.  The net was empty and Bancroft freed the puck along the boards. In a flash as he was about the control it for a chance at the score an Colgate player jumped from the bench to stop his progress.

And it was a  7th Colgate skater who jumped on to stop him!

I have seen the "automatic goal awarded" a few times before when a player is hauled down on a breakaway heading towards an empty net (i.e. a penalty shot situation), but I've never seen it as a result of a blatant "too many men" call in the neutral zone. Although after checking the box score, I see that the penalty assessed on Colgate was actually a minor for "illegal substitution." A quick further review of the rules shows that if a "deliberate illegal substitution" is made during the last 2 minutes of regulation or during overtime, a penalty shot can be awarded. And since the net was empty, they just decided to award the goal automatically instead.

So do we think the Colgate player made the decision to jump on the ice himself or do we think a coach sent him?

Happened pretty quickly. I bet he just instinctively jumped and then felt foolish shortly afterwards.

So this means I should officially watch a replay. Hot damn. Yeah, I know of auto awarding goals if penalties against players occur that impede them from hitting an empty net (this happened to the Devils' Hischier a year or two back), but 7th man on is a new one.

Can't really disagree, but...watching the replay the player that jumped came from right between Harder and another coach. Either of them could have sent him.

Quote from: TrotskyJack Parker did this with the lead once IINM.  Deliberate too many men penalty to force a stoppage and a face off.  Got away with it, too.

Apparently the rule they instituted to award penalty shots when it happens in the final minutes (or in OT) was a direct result of Parker (and some other coaches) doing exactly that as a strategy.

Quote from: Give My RegardsNever seen that before.

Woody Hayes play without the punch.

What happened? No tv for me, and I doubt whatever it was will be on the highlights (assuming they get posted.)

It probably will be in the highlights because a goal was awarded.  The power play was winding down.  The net was empty and Bancroft freed the puck along the boards. In a flash as he was about the control it for a chance at the score an Colgate player jumped from the bench to stop his progress.

I have never before seen this in hockey.

Quote from: dbilmesWhat a day to be a Cornell sports fan! Lacrosse, basketball, women's hockey, men's hockey!

...and all four teams coached by Cornell alums; add in wrestling and you've got quite the spring season for former Cornell athletes at their alma mater.  I can't remember a better 24 hours for the school's teams.

The last time we had a similar weekend was March 2010 when the men won the ECAC's, women were in the Frozen Four, men's hoops won the Ivies, men's lax won their game, and wrestling (as usual) was kicking butt.

I'm sure you're right, but man, that sounds like Shawn Walsh.

Quote from: BearLoverThis announcer is good, don't get me wrong. But as scoop85 said, he is exhausting. Every so often I have to hit mute to take a break since he never gives us one. He'd do well with a color commentator but he also needs to allow for silence from time to time.

i like it. feels like a radio guy.

There's a lot to be said for radio-style play-by-play in live streaming video sports coverage.  People consume streams in a variety of ways, and someone might have the stream on while working in the kitchen or driving, or the video quality of either their device or the feed might not be very good.  If the commentary doesn't assume everyone's actively watching the video all the time, it becomes much more useful.

Sure, but that's what audio is for.

I loved it, personally.  I was charmed by his warm-hearted idiocy.  And he seriously knew his shit -- he made many Cornell hockey deep cuts that were clearly extemp, not notes.

I chuckled when with stoppage at 3:16 left in the game he noted "that's tomorrow" in absolutely seemless fashion.  The guy had it all.

Quote from: SnowballThat was so dumb of Colgate to shove Psenicka right in front of the referee.

I might have taught my seven-year-old the "Bite me, Harder" cheer when he started jawing about that.

There was 100% an 'F' at the beginning of the first word of this. Harder - great player, great guy - but still the funniest expletive-included chant I ever heard.

Come on, she's seven.  I have to censor myself a little!

Let us honor "the guy" by calling him by name: John McGraw. He's been calling Colgate hockey games since 2007 (as a radio PBP 2007-2019).

To each their own! We're fortunate to have an announcer in Grady who is well rounded in his hockey knowledge and easy on the ear. McGraw is the consummate hockey dork who has a more
nasal delivery but is neither a homer nor a walking/talking cliché.

Yeah, that about sums it up for me. He is wonderfully impartial, almost to a fault.

Quote from: Scersk '97The nod to the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament is such a wonderful insider joke. Awful, awful tournament. But how else would I have seen Gallagher scraping up puke?

I declare him "one of us," by which I mean ECAC lovers of "remember that obscure player or moment" conversations.

What the fuck? Please explain...

Once upon a time, there was an awful hockey tournament held at the War Memorial in Syracuse called the Syracuse Invitational Tournament. Close, but awful. ECAC insiders called it the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament. The kind of place where their PA system fails, so the Cornell fans have to lead others in singing the national anthems a cappella.

We were up watching us play Providence one year, and in, I think, the beginning of the first overtime, the Providence goalie just pulled up his helmet and yakked all over the place. A hated ECAC ref of the day, Gallagher, had to scrape it up so the game could go on. We got a picture; someone has it somewhere. I think the goalie stayed in!

Noted offensive talent David Adler won it on an fluky deflected floater in the second overtime. I kind of felt bad for the Providence kid, because he had left it all on the ice.

I remember going to to S(h)IT with my dad and seeing Cornell play Lake State, I think it was around the time they were contenders.

Old news by now but does anyone know why steele was kicked off the team this year?

Nice to see Schaefer shout-out the work of the penalty-killers and Ian in his email about the Colgate series:

           The highlight of the weekend was killing a 6-on-3 power play on Saturday night.

Quote from: chimpfoodOld news by now but does anyone know why steele was kicked off the team this year?

I've been trying to poke around and figure out but no luck.

Maybe he and Joe Howe are hanging out. Joe seems to have vanished from the face of the earth.  Doesn't help that there's another hockey Joe Howe.

was he kicked off or just decided to be a student?

Quote from: upprdeckwas he kicked off or just decided to be a student?

There was a CHA chat with Schafer earlier in the season where he apparently referenced having to "remove someone from the team".  Steele's bio disappeared from the team website shortly thereafter.

Yep. Wondering if it was like, bad academic standing, or he went back to GB, or something less... good.

he is still in school
