Quote from: Iceberg on February 23, 2026, 07:03:24 PMBrown has very quickly hired a new head coach.

I hope he can elevate the program like Cashman and Syer have done with their programs. It would be great to see more Ivies have success, and it would be great for helping Cornell stay competitive on the national stage.
BEARLOVER! STAND DOWN. I REPEAT, STAND DOWN.

Quote from: Weder on February 23, 2026, 02:27:19 PMCornell currently 11th in NPI but will need to be at least 10th for an at-large NCAA bid. I haven't looked at it too closely, but if the conference tournaments are pretty chalky, not sure if Cornell can get in without an autobid.
i assume you mean "to guarantee" an at-large bid, right? there will not be six conference champions who will be outside of the top 16.

It's an 11-team field for the women. (Also, I guess if there's a big upset champion in any of the non-NEWHA leagues that doesn't bode well for Cornell either.)
lol I somehow didn't notice what thread I was in. mea culpa. i'd walk into traffic but there's nobody on the road.

Quote from: ugarte on February 22, 2026, 05:22:14 PMstill laughing that we didn't get hit with a too many men on the ice right before the double minor.

hughes goal was nice; werenski fighting through the defense to get him the puck was beautiful. hellebuyck getting the secondary assist was pretty cool too.

i do not love 3x3 OT to decide a 5x5 game but i have to admit i could be convinced to watch a full game of firewagon 3x3 every once in a while. Game to 11 or something because 60 minutes of it would be boring as hell. I don't feel great about what that says about me but it's true.

Yeah. It makes for a cool sport but it's a different sport.
Agreed. It shouldn't decide a gold medal game but 3v3 is fun from time to time (and for regular season stuff I don't hate it that much). Pretty sure there's that 3ICE summer league that does 3v3 for the full game.
Anyone notice that Canada didn't exactly hustle on the backcheck. The Yanks had oodles of time to finish that goal.  Not like it was important anything.
i mean... there were only three of them, we had a 2x1 and i *still* can't believe that werenski was able to muscle free and get a clean pass across to a rushing hughes.

doesn't seem like it would be that hard to set up video - i'm sure they record practices.

also doesn't seem like it would be that hard for either team to post highlights from the denver game!

Quote from: pjd8 on February 21, 2026, 04:39:26 PMYeah, it's "crazy" to have no power plays.

How about it's great that the players were so focused on playing their best against a high quality opponent that they played a clean game? Or did he want his guys to go to the sin bin? We could start the next Cornell-Quinnipiac game with giving Q a bench minor just to make him feel better.
i don't think it benefits Q to have the game called loosely. we can bang with the best of them. he'll happily take more penalties if he can get his snipers more time on the power play. glad pelosi was out yesterday. hope he's out the next time we play too.

Quote from: chimpfood on February 21, 2026, 04:21:29 PMAwful showing today. Gotta win 2 of the next 3 and that won't be easy.
gadzooks i turned it on at the half, down one. we opened the half with a 3 to take the lead and then the wheels came off. 26-25 halftime score was already a sign that we were off our game and the shooting never improved as the defense collapsed.
