Quote from: billhoward on April 11, 2026, 03:09:29 PM>>> Corrigan brothers annoying

This is like listening to the bad puns of a 1970s Triple-A radio broadcast, with 21st Century references. If this was student announcers, they might be called in to the dean's office for diversity training.

Cornell shots go off the post. "They've been hitten the pipe so often, you'd think they were in Washington, DC."

Cornell shot goes wide. "That shot went out so far left, it'll come back in bounds with a new pronoun."

Cornell gets 3 quick goes to start second half. "Momentum changes. ... Hide your wife."

Are these real quotes from today?!?

Last year for Cornell-Syracuse it was something about pipes and Snoop Dog...
Yes, assholes.

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?

Dartmouth and Harvard left. If they win both then the ILT would be here.

Quote from: George64 on April 04, 2026, 02:59:15 PMI can't believe that I'm agreeing with the intent of something that our president did, if not necessarily the means, but —

As reported in the Washington Post on Friday, he signed an executive order that says there should be a 5-year window for student athletes to complete their athletic careers, establish limits on transfers (one penalty-free, subsequent transfers have to sit out a year), NIL compensation rules, including possible caps or "fair market value" standards and regulation of third-party collectives paying athletes. 

Elements of his order parallel legislation introduced last week by Sen. Tommy Tuberville, an ally and former college football coach. Tuberville's bill would restore stricter transfer rules by allowing one penalty-free move while requiring athletes to sit out a season after a second transfer. It would also establish a five-year window for five seasons of eligibility.

WASHINGTON, April 3 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump issued an executive order on Friday that aims to reinforce the rules of college sports in a bid to restore financial stability and protect the future of college athletics. Friday's order directs ‌federal agencies to bolster the effectiveness of key college-sports rules on transferring, eligibility and pay-for-play. It seeks evaluations on whether any violations of such rules render a university unfit for federal grants and contracts. It calls on the relevant governing bodies to update rules by establishing clear eligibility limits, setting transfer rules as ⁠well as banning "improper" financial arrangements including pay-for-play agreements facilitated by collectives and similar entities. The order also calls on Congress to quickly pass legislation to address these critical issues.

I assume this would include salary caps & FMV standards for coaches, and limits on their movements...

Quote from: ER on March 22, 2026, 08:37:00 AMUSCHO puts us in Albany. Denver really should not have a regional. The elevaion makes it extremely unfair for everyone else. I did a half ironman out there and between that and the 95° temps it was extremely difficult. Can't imagine trying to play hockey against an adapted team

It's only an issue for us.  Cornell will insist that the team stay in classes and won't travel until the last minute.  The other schools won't care about academics and could be on a plane as soon as the sites are announced.

I respectfully disagree. Even if Cornell could get out there five days early, Denver is still going to have an edge at that altitude. Literally the Denver team will have more red blood cells.

You can shorten shifts, and Casey will no doubt try to manage that, but you can't fully control game flow, one extended defensive-zone shift could lead to disaster. That's where altitude really bites. By the third period, if not sooner, you'd expect it to show up in recovery and pace.

Of course it will affect any visiting team, not just Cornell.  I hope the committee is taking that into account.

Lacrosse team flew out to Denver on a Friday and beat them the next day. Could hockey do the same?

Quote from: CU77 on March 21, 2026, 04:49:32 PMFantastic win! I was TBH not expecting it. The team played with high intensity from the start and never let up. Even taking that into account, it also seemed like an off day for the Tigers, perhaps because starting attackman Buonanno did not play. Goalie Croddick, usually excellent, ended at 41%.

But I don't want to take anything away from the Red! They went out and got themselves a statement win, all credit to them.

Also, kudos to the Princeton video production. Top notch in every aspect, from camera number and quality to camera operation to announcing. The announcing duo is knowledgeable and notably respectful of the opposing team.

Next up is Yale. Red should be tanned rested and ready, whether or not any of our injured players are back.

Also nice to watch a lacrosse game on s lacrosse field! Much better than a football field.

Quote from: mike1960 on March 14, 2026, 01:02:33 PMMelkonian takes the first faceoff.

Cascades injured? Melkonian 3 for 3.

Not watching the game . Is Tully getting any help at all?

Quote from: BearLover on March 07, 2026, 02:36:39 PMThis has to be the most lopsided loss in recent Cornell history

I figured this to be a rebuilding year but I had no idea. Hope we make the Ivy tournament.

Quote from: mike1960 on February 28, 2026, 12:53:02 PM4-2 Cornell at the half.

Tully has been All-World in the nets. Around 10 save and amazingly accurate outlet passes to guys running downfield.

Yes I was about to comment on Tully's outlets.
Also, seems to me that Goldstein is doing too many of his lob passes from behind the cage, they generally don't work.

Perfetto in instead of Nurry?

All backups now. My impression is that last year the starters stayed in even when the game was out of reach.
Nice to see the backups doing well today.

Man what a great pass by Goldstein

5-2 after 1 period

4-2
Very sloppy clears today
