Subject: web cam -- GOOD NEWS!

Hello!

After many discussions with several people, we are going to run a free hockey cam this weekend for both games -- Sorry for the late notice, but things went from "no go" to "yes" just this afternoon.  CIT wouldn't allow us to do it on Cornell servers, as they were concerned about high traffic volume and server overload.  However, Mark Anbinder has gone above and beyond to find a host for us, and has secured the services of eCornell (thank you John Wolf and Matt Willis!!) for the weekend.

We want to give parents and friends the heads up if they want to tune in.  They will have to have Quicktime software installed to watch the broadcast.  You can download Quicktime for free at:  http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
(Note:  I've also been told that there is no need to pay to upgrade to QuickTime Pro, no matter how many times Apple's little ads pop up.  The Pro version gives you some suped-up options, but isn't necessary for the broadcasts, the basic version should work just fine.)

We recommend installing QuickTime and testing it before the broadcast, as that gives you time to work out any problems.

Quicktime supports both Mac and Windows formats.

Once you have that ready to go, you can log into the game using this link:

Or you can open the file directly in QuickTime Player (which will also let you increase the size of the image) after you have installed with this link:
rtsp://quicktime.ecornell.com/hockeycam.sdp

Please note that we may experience some technical problems while we get this up and running this weekend, but believe things should go pretty well.  This is the first step (a baby one) in our attempts to get web cam features tied into our online broadcasting coverage.  Given CIT's fear of running this off of University server space (thanks again to eCornell for being so kind to help out this one weekend only) we are still looking at the subscription service for next year, once we get some of the technical parts worked out.

Same NHL team that drafted Dave LeNeveu. They must like Cornell goaltenders.

Since I was at the Ger-Can game just thought that i'd give my 0.02.

Lenny really wasn't tested at all. The one goal he let in was soft


Actually the replay shows it as a screen shot with it being deflected at the last second. Still stoppable but not necessarily soft.

Competition stiff between the pipes


By RYAN VAN HORNE
Halifax Daily News
Goaltending has long been a strength of Canadian junior teams, but if it's going to be the case this year in Halifax, there will be a new household name by the new year.

The four hopefuls at the tryout camp, which began yesterday at the Halifax Metro Centre, are fresh faces. Only one has played for Canada internationally: Marc-Andre Fleury of the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles, who played with the under-18 team in Slovakia in August of 2001.

"I don't think it gives me an edge, because they're all good goaltenders, and two of them were in the summer camp," Fleury said about David LeNeveu and Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers.

Cam Ward of the Red Deer Rebels, a first-round pick of the Carolina Hurricanes, is the other goalie at camp.

"I've got to earn my spot again," said Fleury. "Maybe you have more confidence when you come here to grab a spot."

But even though there's no veteran to beat out, there are some talented goalies at camp.

LeNeveu, who plays for the Cornell Big Red of the NCAA's East Coast Athletic Conference, said the situation is a good one for the goalies.

"Everybody is feeling confident that they have a great chance of playing as a starting goaltender," he said. "It's just going to come down to who has the most confidence and who's playing well behind their teammates."

LeNeveu had a solid summer camp and, along with Drouin-Deslauriers, was invited back. But that doesn't give him an edge over the newcomers, as Olivier Michaud learned.

Michaud was the backup on last year's team, but didn't get an invite to the tryout camp.

"It's how you compete and how you play on the ice," said LeNeveu, who hails from Fernie, B.C.

Canadian coach Marc Habscheid and his chief scout, Blair Mackasey, have enlisted the help of Ian Clark, a goaltending consultant with the Vancouver Canucks, to help them evaluate their goalies.

"You can see from the first practice that they bring a lot of talent," Habscheid said. "There's some big guys, some quick guys, and they bring a lot of dimensions to the game. It makes for an interesting battle."

Fleury has one edge over his competitors. He's familiar with the Metro Centre and knows how quirky the bounces can sometimes be. He's played there several times over the past three seasons with Cape Breton, a division rival of the Halifax Mooseheads.

Fleury, who earned his invite to camp with a blistering start to his Quebec Major Junior Hockey League season, says his busy workload with the Eagles, more than his high ranking for next year's NHL draft, helped him get noticed.

"Getting more shots per game helped me to be seen by the scouts of the Canadian team," said the Sorel, Que., native who is considered a lock to be picked in the top 10 of the 2003 entry draft.

Canadian Press quotes re: David LeNeveu


 "In the States, it's not nearly as big so it's nice having my teammates' support behind me because they realize the importance of what I'm going to," said LeNeveu.
