I would think UMass will have a return visit to Lynah but maybe not this coming season since Cornell had two OOC home series last season and so I'd think they would go on the road for another OOC series to a team other than Omaha.

Per USCHO, the return games at Omaha are on New Year's weekend. Nothing I've seen on other OOC games
#3
Definitely a carryover from the Princeton game last weekend. Without Tully, Hopkins wins the game by a larger margin. Offense had a disappointing game regardless especially given the 1st half

Quote from: Trotsky on May 03, 2026, 08:34:44 PMSorry I am so late.  Are there any Cornell alumni still alive for the Cup?

Malinski and the Avs as far as players are concerned. No idea about staff or management

Quote from: chimpfood on May 02, 2026, 01:45:29 PMHow do these people have nothing better to do than bother him? It's always so bizarre to me when people treat university employees like celebrities. Just because his title is President doesn't mean he's anything special

University presidents, particularly at a school like Cornell, have pretty damn important roles and can be very high profile individuals. I'm surprised he didn't have his own driver. That's not uncommon with quite a few university presidents at places like Syracuse, for example

Quote from: adamw on April 18, 2026, 10:25:17 AMIf anyone wants a cautionary tale of a goalie going ECAC --> Wisconsin, see this guy:

Special situation. I don't remember the full details but Morris had created a lot of animosity at SLU and didn't last long

I'm not going to speculate as of yet. It'll be clearer once we see where he lands and any other information that comes out. At least with Robertson, you could infer it wasn't because of academics and financial aid may have been a contributing factor. It's too early to tell with Cournoyer

Brown D Desiderio has transferred to Dartmouth, and apparently, all the good Dartmouth players with eligibility are sticking around for next season (including Foley). One would have to think they're the clear favorites for a 1 or 2 conference seed

Quote from: Iceberg on April 04, 2026, 11:35:06 PMIt's really too bad I couldn't be there in person to see Penn get soundly beaten. That stadium was one of the most annoying places to watch a lacrosse game

I've heard this regarding Franklin Field a few times now. What exactly is it that makes it so annoying?


Annoying fans, insufferable PA announcer, old, uncomfortable facility (although it's fun to wander around and see the Center City sightlines from high up).


Quote from: tretiak on April 05, 2026, 12:50:57 PMDoes anyone know why there was beef between Goldstein and Penn fans? This game was chippy but I don't remember any prior history with Penn.


Anyone's guess with those people. Goldstein is from one of the main line suburbs (Radnor or Malvern I think), so the game at Penn is basically a homecoming for him and it wouldn't surprise me if his parents and others were in attendance. Maybe those fans were bitter he didn't stay closer to home? Who knows.

Quote from: stereax on March 30, 2026, 11:12:10 AMSenators posted a fun Stanley article! Not sure where to throw this but I'm putting it here, since it seems to point to him coming back for senior year.
I lied. Stanley signed.

Once again, a reminder that I know absolutely nothing 😂

This is very surprising to me. I would've thought they'd let him develop for another year in college but maybe they thought otherwise

My understanding is that Wisconsin demonstrated the talent to go far this season in flashes but were very inconsistent. It seems like they're peaking at the right time, although their goaltending is probably weak. As for MSU, one could argue that they should've lost to UConn
#13
No idea what Stanley was doing there, but it's moot at this point. Looking forward to next year with some of the new guys coming in

Quote from: BearLover on March 27, 2026, 07:42:17 PMNightmare period for Ashton. Unreal

He didn't look great in the Princeton game, either. Bad timing to have these struggles
#15
This is a good Denver team and probably better than the last two Cornell faced in the NCAA's, but that 1st period faceoff disadvantage was huge.
