Quote from: ugarte on April 11, 2026, 11:01:33 AM3x All-American Meyer Shapiro is in the portal. Finished 3rd, 5th and 8th in his three years at Cornell. Rumors of tension between him and the coaching staff.

Weird to say but a very disappointing Big Red career for the U17 and U20 world gold medalist Multiple concussions and losses in the tournament for a guy who was talked about as someone who could be Cornell's third 4x NCAA champ.

On to Nebraska apparently:

Maine announced a 33 game schedule last week.

Bangor Daily News notes that the 34th game is the as of yet unannounced game at MSG.

Quote from: stereax on June 03, 2026, 10:34:45 PMGuilday, Jenner, O'Neill, Saulnier, Zandee-Hart, Bourbonnais, Daniel were not protected in Phase 1 of the PWHL expansion. (Neither were Delianedis or Katie Chan.)

Probably likely enough one or more is on a new expansion team by the end of the process.

The process is complicated. I seem to recall players on multi year contracts like Guilday didn't need to be protected. But I could be wrong.

Lot of speculation Jenner will sign with Hamilton and play her final season(s) in her hometown.

Jenner officially became the first player in PWHL Hamilton history today.

Article about Jenner and her charity work.

She is beloved in Ottawa and you can see the respect among the teammates, national players, and Cornellians in the comments:

The red scarf union supporters group raises money for the Condors every year too. And rallies members to cheer at games.  It's a great connection.

And Guilday has reportedly signed in San Jose. (I was wrong about how the protection worked). 

Now official according to the PWHL site. 2-year deal.

Kristin O'Neill has now signed with SJ too.

Quote from: stereax on May 22, 2026, 02:05:54 PMIn other things that will make @Trotsky mad, they sent out an email earlier asking what theme night you'd want to see.

Like we actually do anything for theme nights besides a free piece of plastic to the first couple hundred people in the doors, but I digress.

How about "Let the fucking band play" night?

Throwback Night.

Quote from: sah67 on May 20, 2026, 09:35:09 PMNot a good night for Cornellians on Ottawa: after Guilday's own goal made it 1-0 Montreal, Jenner got walked on a shorty that made it 2-0, and then later committed another bad turnover leading to Montreal's 4th goal.

And Montreal wins the Walter - but it was a hell of a run by Ottawa.

In related news of Cornellians not doing the best in the playoffs, Vegas takes game 1.

It was a rough end for Ottawa in a series that very well could have gone the other way.

Montreal scored with two seconds left to tie game one on a play that was only possible because Laura Stacy went down with an injury with about 18 seconds left. Montreal then won game two in overtime on a play where the goal scorer was left open because the defender was tripped on her way to cover. Those are the breaks. That's hockey. Etc. But with expansion, these teams will look very different next winter.

Quote from: dbilmes on May 20, 2026, 10:31:18 AMYale's new coach sounds confident of ending team's streak of losing seasons.
"This team is going to be good," Hamilton said. "I believe that, and they believe that. It is going to be hard work, and it is going to be a lot of work. It is going to be holding players accountable when it is uncomfortable, but the talent is there. Our staff certainly believes that.
"I don't think it is going to be long. It is going to be a lot of hard work, but Yale hockey will be back on the map soon."

I appreciate that these threads now have a tradition of starting with Yale coaching news.

Quote from: stereax on May 18, 2026, 08:59:36 PMSeems the Ottawa Charge have won game 3!

Yes. Scored twice in last four minutes to stay alive. Long delay on gwg for a possible Jenner hand pass. Guilday had a nice play to help get the final clear with a few seconds left.

16,894 in attendance in Ottawa. Game four Wednesday.

Rough night for Ottawa alumnae. Jenner missed an empty net with about ninety seconds to go. Montreal tied it with two seconds left. And won it in ot after a Guilday turnover.

Quote from: imafrshmn on May 12, 2026, 01:32:26 PMBrianne Jenner and Rory Guilday advanced to the PWHL championship series (Walter Cup) with Ottawa Charge after downing Jill Saulnier and the Boston Fleet in front of a healthy 13,000+ fans in 2OT in Ottawa.

Montreal won last night and will host games one and two Thursday and Saturday.

PWHL draft list is also out and includes a couple familiar names: https://www.thepwhl.com/en/news/2026/may/12/2026-pwhl-draft-eligibility-list-features-record-number-of-player-declarations

League is expected to go from 8 to 12 teams next year. Detroit is official. Vegas and Hamilton strongly rumored to be announced shortly. Vegas probably today.

Quote from: stereax on May 10, 2026, 07:51:43 PMRory Guilday's Ottawa Charge have made the Walter Cup Finals!

Will face either the Victoire or the Frost.

Game featured some red on red crimebaggery when Jill Saulnier had a partial breakaway in overtime only to be hauled down by her HOF classmate Brianne Jenner. Penalty was killed by Guilday on the PK.

I don't twat so I couldn't read them, but I am assuming unrelenting misogyny and idiocy from the usual suspects?

Close enough.
