Get ready for either the cleanest game of hockey ever... or some VINTAGE crimebaggery. No in between.
Interesting position. We come off one of the worst games we have ever played, and yet...
No need to play the game according to the ECAC website, they must REALLY have been afraid it would get out of hand.

Every time we play in Hamilton, we discover the whimsical style of John McGraw as if it was for the first time. He's always been like that, and for my money one of the best at combining hockey knowledge with dry wit.

And an elf lurker. Hi, John.
Surgery yesterday, complications today (and no, I'm not dying).
But doubtful that I'll make tonight's game. Didn't make last night's in I don't remember how many years. After all Hamilton is closer to me than Ithaca.
Anyway, that means no newspapers or Snickers unless someone(s) else is volunteering.
If you're near Syracuse, I've got a bag of papers and Snickers for you.
If you're further away, I could probably meet you somewhere, but couldn't drive all the way to Ithaca.
So all you true fans out there, it's time.
You can text me at 315-877-1180 if you can help.
Any guesses on the lines for tonight?
No Walsh, correct?

There is precedence in the program. Top scorer Greg Miller was scratched after the team had a bad Friday game and they were brutally flat and lost a game to Brown that they had no business losing. I was never more mad as a Cornell fan than that night.

My understanding is:

I'm pretty sure I'm right, so if I am... where Walsh?
All best wishes, Jim. No more complications!
Our chance to make up that game at hand against Harvard and Dartmouth. Make it count, lads.

Drawing on our vast PK experience last night, this one gets killed off.
In gear nerd shit, Major's using a black stick rn.
Castagna gets upended. PP time.
Everything But The Goal, a PP1 experience. Now with extra DeSantis!
Unless we score in the next 37 seconds, or one of our guys commits a Crime, we should take a PP into second period.
I hope somebody isolates that Colgate D-man's lost stick on their last kill. That was Three Stooges-level physical comedy.
3:44 remaining. Go enjoy.

This is definitely the most annoying game I've watched in a while. Colgate doing nothing but instigating and Cornell falling right into it. This edition of Colgate is as bad or worse as some of the past Gaudet Dartmouth teams and penalties are most of the reason this game is even close
Five and a game?
Yep. Castagna sent off. Holy fuck.

Time for the enshittification of 3x3.
Two.
2 points just given away. Guh.
OTOH, it could easily have been a zero-point weekend with the way we played.
On to the Cap District, and may THIS PAST FUCKING WEEKEND be our nadir.
(edited to be less Hegel and more Strunk & White)
Sticks slammed, FUCKs yelled.
At least they didn't jump Colgate like Dartmouth last year.
Sometimes our opponents are able to feed off of the Lynah energy as much as we do. A proper gongshow that would have swung our way more times than not. Sometimes you gotta step back and appreciate what the whole enchilada is about, and get on with your Saturday night in zero degree weather, and enjoy the ones you're with.
I understand what they were trying to do in the overtime, but they just couldn't execute it, unfortunately
Cornell 1, Stripes 2.
Holy fuck it is so fucking cold I stepped out of a car and walked maybe for 15 seconds total outside and the fur in my boots is wet and frozen. What the fuck. Thank god I had a ride what the hell.
In "Stereax forgets to eat food" news, I housed down a Mr Goodbar for breakfast and am now scouring my selection of frozen dinners for lunch. Butter(ed up) chicken (refs) sounds good, right?

Don't you mean THIS be our nadir?
I surely don't want to go any lower than this.
For the NPI degenerates among us (myself included), we are still 8th in NPI. To drop into that 13th-15th danger zone, we'd need to shed 1.5 NPI points. Even dropping Q and Clarkson, winning out the rest, only puts us at a shed of 0.5 NPI points.
So unless we really fuck up, we should make the NCAAs without having to win the ECACs.
I can't be too mad at us for getting 4 of six points when colgate was playing like this is their only series of the year that matters (because it is), the refs were fucking us, and we were without our top two forwards. It is absolutely ridiculous that Walsh got a whole extra game for an after whistle scrum, not to mention all of the other calls tonight that didn't go our way.
Even though I'm not too mad, it does suck to walk 30 minutes round trip in 0 degree weather to watch us lose, even though the game was entertaining and we had a lot of fun with Dyck.
The main thing about our game that bothered mean was that even though Veilleux ALWAYS looks for the slap pass on the power play, nobody was ready for it and that cost us two easy goals (usually Walsh is back door to put it home). Cournoyer needs to work on his rebound control too, he consistently gives up juicy rebounds to the most dangerous parts of the ice, and Colgate probably could have had a couple more from that. Also the dicking around in our own zone in OT that led to the game losing turnover was ridiculous.
On the road at the capital district next weekend won't give us a big chance to move up in the NPI, but luckily going to OT tonight helped us not drop like a brick. Too soon to look ahead to the NCAAs, so just keep winning for now. Maybe I'll try to finally make the capital district trip since it's February break.
Get well soon Jim, we missed you today.
Anyways, I think if you said to a Cornell fan "Yeah by the third period of the Saturday game, both Walsh and Castagna are out and you still get it to OT and almost win it", that fan would first get REALLY concerned about our centers and then, when consoled that they are healthy, be relieved about squeaking out that point.

Stay warm, Chimp, it is cold as hell out here! Make yourself some warm tea when you get home :')
Also let's talk about how terrible Colgate is that they manage to get the refs to hand them a 5 minute major and proceed to not only blow the major by taking penalties, they ALSO got deleted by Caton Ryan during it.

Hhhhhh I almost forgot about that, thanks for making me even more angry 😂 the refs had it OUT for Kraft tonight huh?

Freshman forward Chase Pirtle was in the crease, making contact with Colgate netminder Reid Dyck, and that was a no-go for the referees. The goal was immediately waved off for goaltender interference, but Cornell promptly challenged the play, insisting that the Raider defenseman pushed Pirtle in and did not allow him a path out.
Unfortunately for the Red, that wasn't how the officials saw it. No-goal for Kraft was the call and to overtime the Red would go. Norlin took matters into his own hands soon thereafter.
"I mean, the [Colgate] kid's got his stick right up underneath [Pirtle's] gut and pushed him right into [the goaltender]," Jones said. "So I'm going to get clarification from the league, but I don't know. I don't know where he was supposed to go. I don't know."Interesting thing McNally mentions, though:
Cornell was already down its top-line center: junior forward Ryan Walsh — nabbed for a major cross-checking call the night prior — who was reportedly suspended by the ECAC, the only Division I hockey conference that does not make suspension information publicly available.1) Why isn't this made public?
2) Wasn't five and a game enough already for a crosscheck that slipped high?

But then again, the refs were absolute ass all weekend.

That's quite mild and IMO inarguably true.
Blaming officiating is the second-to-last refuge of the incompetent, but I saw ample reason to allow our goal. Pirtle was steered into the goalie and he had no way to get out of it.
I don't have any issues with the Walsh and Castagna calls, however. If they make Casty a DQ and we lose him next Friday sucks for us but... don't do that.
Cornell had poor discipline. They started petty fights or took the bait to join one a lot. They didn't forecheck very much. Colgate's OT goal happened because a Cornell puck carrier wandered into a corner, volunteering himself to be boxed in. Colgate jumped on what was given them and scored.
The 2nd was the worst period of hockey I've ever seen. The referees' constant and interminable conferences with the coaches and each other, with team captains, cheerleaders, Zamboni operators, etc. (one was over 10 minutes) ground whatever attention was left for the game itself into dust. How to lose friends and alienate people.
When did this start? In the old days refs made their call and that was it. If a coach didn't like it, too bad.

Still 2nd in points for Northwood, which is great for a D. Would like to see her at BK Selects and then Cornell. Maybe a little greedy.
That goal interference call is pretty bizarre given the calls I have seen happen all year on those types of play.
The D is riding the Cornell kid from 3-4 ft out of the crease all the way thru to the goalie and has his stick around him to control him. Not sure what else he could have done other than fall down once they started gliding. Once they got into the crease which he can do then what he could have done other than what he did. He tried to not hit the goalie but the D gave him no out and is clearly pushing him

I'm assuming that the league can "clarify" calls made by refs; for instance, to explain what Pirtle was "supposed" to do there, for Casey and others' future reference when coaching.
From complaining with others after the game, I heard (anecdotally, so take this with as much salt as you want) that it wasn't called off because Pirtle didn't get steered into the net - he did - but the call was that he "didn't make enough effort" to counteract that, and thus GI could stand.
Me, deadpan: so what's he supposed to do then, become fuckin Superman and fly to the other side of the rink?

I assume he means one of those "We're sowwy" memos the NBA puts out after every blown final minute call but it won't change anything, including how it gets called next time.

Honestly, more okay with the Castagna call - in that basically everyone in the rink knew the minute he hammered that kid, tensions were boiling all the way over, especially after the shift I want to say JUST before where one of our guys learned assault is apparently fully legal if it's on ice.
Now, it was on the D/E side boards, so one of my blind spots and I didn't actually really see that hit, so I can't speak as to how dirty it was or anything like that. Hit from behind is a strange penalty in general too, don't kmow if I've seen it more than maybe Mack's Yale 5+game last year. (Wait, no, that was contact to the head. Point still stands.)
But if you're reffing this shitshow, just in general... how the hell do you let it even get to that point? How do you not even think to tell both coaches "next kid to start shit is getting a game" and enforce that? Hell, on both sides if need be. They had no issue giving Gio and Hiscock (and those other guys from Colgate) misconducts at the end of last game. (Sure, you can say it was the end of the game, but still!)
Figured I'd give Colgate a trophy seeing how happy they were after they scored in OT.

Yeah, there was a mugging / response mugging.
But they didn't call any penalties. If you don't call anything, what's the point of explaining it forever? Just drop the puck.

I'm gonna guess both sides wanted some penalties and the refs decided no, and were explaining why not. Repeatedly.

According to the announcers, Casey was pretty much saying "okay drop the puck."
But I guess refs needed to explain things a lot.
Back in the 80's last night would've resulted in a "the ref beats his wife" chant. Hopefully they have some better ref taunts these days.

There were a couple "refs love Dyck" chants after the goalie interference.
That's nice. TBF the way he played last night, well, he was a strong Dyck. Dyck really stood up. Dyck pounded us. Dyck showed us who our daddy was. & etc.
Very disappointed with inconsistency in the refs calls in this game ... Casty got nailed for the hit from behind but I felt like the Colgate player embellished a bit and it was a lot less than Colgate had been laying on Casty throughout his play up to that point!
The take down on Hoyt in OT happened right in front of where I sit in N and looked like a tackle.
Still our lack of control of our tempers is a lesson for our young team. I am hoping we learn and move on!

I think we mostly default to the "I'm blind, I'm deaf, I wanna be a ref" chant. Sometimes "refs you suck". We pulled out both of those last night. (Haven't heard the rope/tree one, personally.)
For a chant to "hit", it needs to have a cadence and repetition.
I'd suggest "unemployment" in the four syllable cadence, but eh, that's weak and is too broad. "Go get LASIK"? Eh.
There's something percolating in the back of my head about the refs being so blind, they had... relations with animals because they thought those animals were their wives, but that's way overboard in the 2020s and way too long to fit to any cadence. Same idea with something playing along the lines of "zebras in the zoo". Especially so if there were a Black ref...
"Stripes get sniped"? (To the LGR cadence.) "Compensating"? (That one requires way too much explanation.)
Something with a circus? "Refs are clowns"? (Basic.)
I'll have to think.

This regular season matchup has given us fits for years now. They haven't had a regular season sweep vs Colgate since before the pandemic.
Based on that recent history I think a four point weekend would have been something to hope for earlier in the season when looking ahead. Once they got the regulation road win on Friday though you would want to finish the deal at home on Saturday.
There were plenty of opportunities to take control of that game. I was worried about getting dragged into scrums to get them off their game. I wasn't expecting more self destructive moments though (Castagna major on top of the Walsh suspension). Cornell has nice depth but it's really tough to replace the caliber of the players that they lost.

That makes sense, but wouldn't the refs look at it anyway because it was a huge play on a close call at the end of the game?
Or do they not do that. Would understand if not, kinda defeats the penalty for using your challenge, but it happens in a lot of sports.
