Hockey / Dryden ceremony
November 15, 2025, 09:43:05 AM
I can't believe they sent out a notice to puff up a ceremony honoring a hockey great and it was just a few random still photos and a short Aurthur voice over?  he played 50 yrs ago. How many in the crowd actually saw him play?  Maybe show his stats on the board since sound is hard to understand anyway. A nice video clip. Or showing a shot of his famous pose standing with his stick  that made it easy to see?  Did they not have any good color pictures
from the dark ages?

I got confirmation the Dryden pregame event will be just after the national anthems at 7.

is the pre-game thing starting at 7 or starting before the game. That might be useful information to make clear.

Im lazy so AI told me how the team is doing this morning.


The 2025 Ivy League men's soccer standings show Harvard and Brown in the lead, followed by Yale and Dartmouth, while the 2025 women's soccer standings show Princeton and Dartmouth leading. The men's season has concluded, with the final standings and a tournament championship in Princeton, while the women's season appears to still be active or just ending, based on a recent announcement of the All-Ivy awards.

I think the ref rules that the kid was offsides but no one touches the puck and he gets back onsides?

in this day and age where cameras are cheap and replay has been a thing for many years why do they not have a camera down the actual line?

But also didnt the linesman call offsides.

He was offsides by a ft or 2.

offside or not but why did the linesman call offside but not blow the play dead?

So does it make sense then, that better teams win more home and away and worse teams lose more home and away.

How much does it skew thing if there is no advantage at all for h/a?

A good team in a bad league will win more and also win more away and thus get more credit?  But then its value is lowered by the SOS.

I was listening to a show talking about power rankings and metrices for gambling and they had the discussion that basically the eye test is much better at picking better teams but that with so many teams they computer numbers make it easier to assign value even if its wrong.

We should make use of that camera at Lynah for replays.  But it is a great view of Pks for sure.

The question will still be is a flawed computer based system better than a flawed human based system.

huge stretch of the game they dominated in a large way.  have to not miss on the PP when they had good setups.  Once they got PP in the zone it moved the puck well.

SHowed some grit.  some speed, got into good shooting areas a ton.

Really solid first game other than the score, which is hockey most of the time

Also noticed that other than the IVYs there is only Miami left as an undefeated untied team, 2-3 weeks into the season.

Clarkson has beaten PSU/NDAK and also got dominated by a bad RIT team and lost to Canisius who also beat Colgate, but Colgate has tied BU and beaten Maine?  Canisius lost to LIU which is that teams only win.

Also since NPI has replaced the pairwise. What tweaks were made to make that different?
