Hoping for >3,600 attendance
I see no reason why Saturday will have more than Friday. Whatever was holding down attendance is more than likely operative all weekend.
I've heard the barn deafening despite smaller crowds. The critical element is enthusiasm. The band's resurrection is a positive. Some well-placed C-4 to get rid of the Muzak would not be amiss.
RPI lost against Colgate yesterday when they could not score in a major penalty.
Perhaps an omen. :P

There's a football game today as well, which may affect the band if not the fans
Quote from: Anne 85 on November 22, 2025, 01:06:46 PMThere's a football game today as well, which may affect the band if not the fans
It's a home game, which would normally affect the band not at all - except that it's the last home game of the season, i.e., senior day, which means tonight's pep band might be thirty-seven underclassmen and three off-tempo seniors.
Still better than anything the rest of the ECAC's got.
God bless the pep band. The only thing I'll ever complain about with them is how football is prioritized over hockey.
They really are the last thing in the way of us becoming a boring building with all piped in music and a goal horn.

Shortly after warmups started we saw one of the ushers go down to the announcer's area (still called the scoring box?) and presumably ask that the volume be turned down. He was directed to the office near the Zamboni door, and made his way over there. The volume did get lowered, but not very much. If you measured it at 90db, I'm wondering if that was before or after the minor adjustment.

My friend's Iphone measured 90 and my Android showed a 90 dB peak but this was during warmups. I don't see the utility unless you want to chase the townie fans.

I used my ear buds as earplugs. Also came up with a second instance to worry about the ESPN+ up and down volume level when I tried to listen to Jason in the intermissions.
The RPI band is here first.

Late arriving crowds have been an issue for years. But if those who arrive for warmups are rewarded by being deafened, it's only going to get worse.
Band should be there by 6:20 and alternate playing and heckling during warmups. Even immediately after last football home game. *shakes fist at cloud*

I enjoyed their particularly enthusiastic version of "O Canada".
Goal light never came on and no one in the student section reacted, but Kraft on a 2-on-1!
Gorski in the lineup tonight, replacing...Arsenault?
TWO NONE ALREADY
Devlin finished a nifty tic-tac-toe passing play on an odd man rush: 2-0!
Just when I was about to question putting Devlin out there with Walsh and major!
An amateurish quick promo video on the screen during the time out, which was barely audible, ended with a message saying " the pep band will see you at Red Hot hockey!"
Hope that's not implying that the band intends to skip the entire game tonight.
Gorski, maybe with some first game jitters, coughed it up right in the slot, but Cournoyer to the rescue.
Breakaway squirts through. 2-1.
RPI springs a guy on a breakaway: 2-1.
Our defense looks quite a bit less cohesive tonight...RPI spending quite a few stretches in our end and outshooting us too.
Quote from: sah67 on November 22, 2025, 07:30:32 PMRPI springs a guy on a breakaway: 2-1.
Matt Buckley from Tyler Wallace. Neither played for RPI last season as is the case for over 2/3 of RPI's roster. Coach Lang cleaned house when he arrived which made a lot of sense.
2-1 good guys, end of the 1st.
SOG: 11-7 RPI
Pep bands: 1-0 RPI

Yeah, I think they aren't coming.
As much as I hate the piped in music, I did appreciate the piped in "Davy" after the Cornell goals. I mean if the pep band is gonna blow the game off...
Ice Resurfacer (TM) broken?
Quote from: stereax on November 22, 2025, 07:41:43 PMIce Resurfacer (TM) broken?
It dumped a giant pile of snow in front of B and then went right out in the door after only doing one lap... with poor Tyler, the young fan of the game, held hostage!
I'm sure a broken ice resurfacer is fine. Who needs knees?
Anyway, I turned the game on and we were already up 2-0. We have not looked very good from the point I turned it on.
Intermission clock has stopped with 5:22 remaining and the Zamboni has not returned, although the giant pile of snow has been "redistributed" via figure skaters with shovels... :o
Yup: Arthur just announced a "delay" while they work to fix the resurfacer. Never a dull moment here!
Annnd the resurfacer made a quick recovery and returns right after Arthur's delay announcement!
"Hopefully the delay will be brief"
Now fixed

We seemed to be taking advantage of RPI's porous D and shaky goalie early, but the wheels kind of came off after that and RPI was firmly in control for most of the rest of the first.
Zamboni guy doing a terrible job lol
BAND'S HERE
We have a (partial) band!
Rumor is the resurfacer ran over a water bottle that someone had thrown on the ice, and that's what caused the malfunction.
I saw the Zamboni needed to restart. Mechanical error on top of bad ice?

DEVLIN AGAIN
Devlin x2 off a pretty feed from Major: 3-1!
Good things happen when you put the puck on net.

Many years ago, Union's digested a t-shirt that was being thrown into the crowd. Does this mean that RPI, which uses 2, is not being cheap for once?
Much more aggressive to start the second: we've already nearly evened out the SOG differential. And now a power play coming up for us.
Oof: that first stretch of power-play was shades of last season...pass-pass-pass-pass-turnover.
Half way through the second and we've held RPI to 0 SOG: much better.
Our 5x5 play looks much more like a power-play than our actual power-play did. Shots are 10-0 in our favor so far in the second.
Nice looks, nice plays. Devlin with a couple nice chances at the hat.
Walsh playing like a Hobey Baker candidate tonight.
Long staring at an empty net but the puck jumped right over his stick.
Gorski sighting
RPI can't count.
Tic tac toe again: Veilleux to Walsh to Castagna who one times it from the slot: 4-1 PPG!
Castagna on the PP and we're up 4-1! Redemption after that whiff earlier.
Damn, RPI got an SOG.
SOG in the 2nd were 14-3 CU: keep that up please!

easily imo
Wonderful weekend. It is so refreshing to not already be behind and desperately scrambling for NPI and league points like we were last year.
Cournoyer is still a baller, Walsh and Castagna are showing up big time, and Devlin is making a name for himself. I don't think Gorski is ready for a full time role, but hopefully today was just him getting his jitters out. Besides I think the extra skater is best used as a forward anyway.

Historically, the pep band is made up almost entirely of students who are also in the marching band, and for the marching band their senior night is a pretty big deal. Pep band is an easy gig by comparison. Four years of being outdoors in the late fall ithaca weather for games and rehearsals both isn't easy.

Band alum here. Football game ended at 4:10. No reason to be late for hockey even on senior day. It's always a tight turn but it's very doable to be at Lynah by 6:20. Especially when you know a visiting band is coming. At a minimum, an advance contingent of underclassmen should have been there on time.

I could definitely be mistaken, but I was under the impression that the band alumni, in this situation, would just borrow the instruments from the band.
The other reason I thought it may have been an impromptu group of band alumni was the fact that there was the video and announcement that the pep band would be seeing us at Red Hot Hockey. (So their not being at the RPI game was planned.)
Cornell had a lot of space to show off their skill and speed last night. They were cruising along until the DiGiulian penalty and then struggled to regain the momentum until they came back out for the final forty. This team has done an incredible job of being their best later in games. Especially clamping down on D. Where early on in the season the freshman were driving the offense, the upperclassmen have taken over. I thought Walsh carried the puck to the front of the net on the fifth goal but must be an RPI player played the puck in between so he didn't get another assist? RPI had such a tough time even gaining the offensive zone that they were hanging a guy out near their blue line and were content to let the game be played four on four in the defensive zone. Wild. There's a lot to like so far. I'm looking forward to the upcoming test vs BU. Should be a very different style of play than they have faced so far.

Quote from: sah67 on November 22, 2025, 07:58:36 PMRumor is the resurfacer ran over a water bottle that someone had thrown on the ice, and that's what caused the malfunction.
There was a water bottle, looked like the green ones they use on the bench, buried on top of pile of snow when 'Resurfacer' left the ice first time. Rink staffer walked out and picked it up and then sent student staff out with shovels to look through snow pile and make sure was only snow there; Then most of snow pile was moved by hand to each side of the Zamboni doors. This is the only time I have seen anything like it!

It was striking how much more open ice there was against RPI compared with Union. Lang will make RPI better, but they have a ways to go.

BU is famously STRUGGLING out there. Their defense tends to not show up half the time. Yegorov is still good, but he's been leaky recently - hasn't put up a s% above .900 more than twice in the past 10 games, which is also the amount of times he's been pulled. Once after only 12 minutes.

Pedantic ChemE comment: Unless they were fighting in honey, it was a vicious brawl, not a viscous brawl.

I was struck by that, too. The hanger receiving the homerun pass created the breakaway in the first that gave RPI its one goal. In the second that's all RPI seemed to be trying (that, or I was paying attention more to it because I was in Section O watching our defensive zone that period) but Cornell's defense was wise to it and mostly not losing track of the hanger.

Absolutely, but I also worry that an angry BU team that can absolutely score + a Cornell defense with 3+ freshmen and a freshman goalie might = a ton of goals.

ECAC teams at 1, 3, 9, 14, 15. Hopefully we do not all fall on our collectively asses during holiday NC play, and it isn't just a math illusion caused by Dartmouth being 100%.
I was curious if there was an ECAC inflation due to Dartmouth being undefeated. I should read up more on NPI. Instead, I used the customize option on CHN's site to calculate with Dartmouth losing a bunch of upcoming games. It pretty much just dropped Dartmouth down the ranks and minimally impacted the rest of the ECAC teams.
Dartmouth has a very favorable schedule the next three weekends and five of the games are in Hanover. I could realistically see them going at least 5-1 given their opponents, so the "inflation" could continue for a while

With 6 Ivies starting late and playing a smaller number of games, it's not surprising if one of them happens to start 6-0, particularly when they've played an easy schedule as Dartmouth has.

I would say that's one of the many things in the pipeline as part of a UI overhaul. Just rolled out a new version today that starts the overhaul - but most of it is behind the scenes - plus making things a bit easier to find in the main navigation.
Dart has not only won, but they have also won by about a 4-1 avg.
