Ryland Randle.
Helluva name.
5'10", 170 lbs. Dman in the USHL, about half a PPG. Sounds like he could come in next year.
How many dmen do we have??

...Every time she does a deep dive on a player, I end up wanting to run through a WALL for that player.

Source? I'm pretty sure that's not right. Ryan's brother is Kent Hughes, the Montreal GM. Kent does have a son Jack, but not "that" Jack.
Quote from: BearLover on March 02, 2026, 11:35:13 AMHere is an idea for an NIL-like arrangement that Cornell hockey could offer:
The coaching staff works with the ample Cornell Hockey alumni holding prestigious jobs in finance to arrange for summer internships for current hockey players. During recruiting, the coaching staff could tell the recruits: we can't offer you any money directly, but we can set you up with an internship that will get you valuable experience in your field and pay you $[30,000].
I know Schafer was working on something like this a few years ago. And I'm sure this type of thing already happens a lot informally.
Of course, the best recruits just want to play hockey and make the NHL. But I think this would be valuable to the B+ recruits we tend to attract, and the coaches can make clear that the internship would afford the players plenty of time to concentrate on hockey. It should also be legal under the rules because the payout is associated with a legitimate job.

But yeah, Albany makes a lot more sense for us. They'll almost certainly want Denver in Loveland, and NoDak in Sioux Falls, and the rest of it is just chip shuffling away. Good thing for us is that we're good at drawing crowds, which can help us get "closer" seeding even if it isn't chalk.Quote from: stereax on March 01, 2026, 10:42:48 PMQuote from: pjd8 on March 01, 2026, 10:08:16 PMThey have to win the HEA playoffs to get in. If they get in, they'll be a 4 seed. If we stay at 9 (highest 3 seed), we're probably going to be vs Denver, probably one of the Michigans, and Bentley or whichever AHA team wants to be cannon fodder. (And if we're against Denver, it's almost certainly gonna be in Colorado.)Quote from: The Rancor on March 01, 2026, 10:02:57 PMQuote from: pjd8 on March 01, 2026, 05:36:38 PMQuote from: BearLover on March 01, 2026, 11:23:38 AMWhen I watch this team, we don't look dominant.
I tend to agree, though we've certainly had our moments. I think that's a function of having so many freshmen.
And yet here we are, ninth in NPI, an Ivy title, and third in the ECAC having beaten everyone at least once, so we can do it again. Think what will happen as this freshman class matures.
The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.
The only team we didn't beat at least once this season is BU- the only one e that we played once.
Yes, I was just referring to ECAC teams, but maybe that's a good omen for us if we meet them in the post season. It *might* happen. They are finally above .500.
I recommend listening to and reading the USCHO Braketology information. They lean toward Albany for us to try to get some sort of crowd there...if we lose in the Quarters of ECAC, and maybe the semis, we might get sent to Denver, but if I'm betting, I'd say ALB vs. UMD. We'll see.
If it IS Albany, I'm gonna do whatever the hell I need to to try to be there. (And if it IS UMD... Kovich)

I think I recall seeing a few youth teams dye pink, but blond is a standard. Only thing that was throwing me off was that the blonds were all different shades - except if it was bleach and not dye, that would make sense, LOL.

Their 3rd Best Offense in the last 4 seasons. However, order has been restored to the universe.
Quote from: chimpfood on March 01, 2026, 02:51:08 PMWouldn't hate another Harvard series, but I wouldn't be shocked to see brown beat Union. It killed me to miss the harvard series two years ago.

Not sure why but it was funbecause everyone is appointing Yale in advance, I guess. the sweet 16 Cornell squad had multiple ivy losses too.
The Sweet 16 team had only one Ivy loss, an inexplicable defeat to a weak Penn team.
My recollection is that a flu bug was running through the team that weekend of the Penn loss.

Colgate, ten seconds later: perfect passing play to goal.
