No, it's Geoff Dunn, as usual.

Marc, Robert and Andrew Wyttenbach all played junior-varsity hockey for Cornell from the late 1980s through the mid-1990s, until the JV program was disbanded, having outlived its usefulness. I spent way too many Saturday and Sunday mornings at those games, as official scorer, PA announcer, or both. My records of those times are no longer in my possession, having contributed 40 boxes of material to the University Archives when I downsized about 5 1/2 years ago, but they are available for reference in the reading room in the basement of Olin Library.

Some JV facts: Schafer coached the JV team as part of his job as assistant coach right after he graduated. Tony Eisenhut, the analyst on the ESPN+ broadcasts, was a JV player.

Quote from: scoop85 on February 07, 2026, 11:48:03 PMUnless I missed it, I'm surprised no one's mentioned that among all the other bizarre officiating tonight was that Stanley appeared to get pulled down immediately before Colgate's gift-wrapped OT winner.

And the pile of players that got pushed across the blue line to gain the zone had the puck carrier in the back.

Shocked there wasn't a look to see if that was offsides.

They lost their timeout after the failed Kraft goal challenge right so they couldn't challenge for offside?

You can always challenge. After the first unsuccessful challenge, you lose your timeout. After subsequent unsuccessful challenges, you receive a minor penalty.

Also, each team gets one timeout during each overtime period.

I would retire 3 for Mike, were I the retiring type.  He was a fun and consequential player and is (arguably) the single greatest contributor to Cornell hockey.

All 4 of my Rushmore -- Schafer, Dryden, Ned Harkness, and Laing Kennedy -- are Canadian.  Who is the greatest American contributor to Cornell hockey? James Lynah, from South Carolina, founded the ECAC, but while towering alumnus and namesake I don't think of him as specifically Cornell.

Maybe it's Art Mintz.  :-)

Topher Scott? Stephen Baby? Jay Bloom?

An alternative to retiring Schafer's number.

Apparently, some time after the bus left New Haven Friday night, Jonathan Castagna reached back in time to deflect Caton Ryan's shot and was credited with a retroactive hat trick: https://cornellbigred.com/news/2026/1/30/mens-ice-hockey-yale-recap.aspx.

Quote from: Trotsky on January 16, 2026, 09:48:02 PMSo the call that gave us the man advantage for 9 seconds late in the third was interesting.  Ezman, their goal scorer BTW, was whistled for roughing along with Ryan and then given 2 extra for "Persisting in Misconduct."  That's a new one for me.

I'd love to know the difference between that and unsportsmanlike conduct.

This is more Greg's fantasy than anything else. The actual call is attached.

I've also scanned the artwork and the liner notes, but they're apparently too large to post here, and I'm too lazy to upload them somewhere and provide links.
