CHN mentioned in an article that Cornell already has players in the transfer portal for the off-season, anyone know who?

Would someone mind reminding me? For conference tournaments and the ncaa tournament does it follow the same regular season way of 5 minutes of 3x3 OT then a shootout or is it 5x5 OT periods until there's a winner?

Yeah he probably won't start but I haven't seen him play in person yet and he was a highly touted prospect so I still have a lot of faith in him

Quote from: nshapiroI just noticed that every conference leader is in the top 16.
I don't know if this has ever happened before.
I am pretty sure no season has ended this way for NCAA selections.

Anyone else notice a conference with only 7 teams that had 6 of them ranked in the top 20?  This is a conference that has had much trouble gaining traction in the Frozen Four since its (rather recent) inception.

Yep. It reminds me of the ACC lax league of 15-20 years ago. So much weight was put into SoS that just playing a league schedule made sure a majority of teams made the ncaas.

Notre Dame risks finishing in the top 16 with a losing record and being ineligible.
That's what I hate about pairwise. So much is out into strength of schedule when that's the one thing that schools can't control. Teams can't choose how strong or weak their conference is each year and a lot of the time schools with a worse record from the strong conferences struggle in the tournament.

I think it's time for the pairwise to give more than a 20 percent bonus for away games. If you look around the ncaa this year there are some tremendous differences in home vs away record. Just in the ECAC harvard and Q are undefeated at home, we have one loss at home and are below .500 away. Even Yale is hovering around .500 at home.

Quote from: BearLoverHarvard's five goals all scored by top-three-round draft picks. Maybe we can finally dispense with the notion that draft picks don't matter and that Harvard doesn't play up to its talent.
Only one of them was a snipe. The others were screens and a wide open net from a 2 on 1.

Mitchell has to slide there

Another thing to note is that we were without Nasir Williams today. He had no visible casts or braces on the sideline and I even saw him job a few times so hopefully we have him back next week for a very difficult princeton/Penn away weekend.

Nice win 80-73 over brown. Shots just weren't falling in the first half and once that started going our way we took advantage. I don't know how coach earl hasn't made Ragland stop shooting threes by now, it's getting egregious.

I mean it's a forum for Cornell hockey discussion. You should probably stay away if you don't want to know the score

Wouldn't shock me to see Keopple get a few games down the stretch. Maybe we'll see him start tonight and then play a couple of the rpi/union and brown/Yale games to give Shane a rest before playoffs
