Well, I hope we don't have to find out if Clarkson can be beaten in Ithaca, I'd hate to have to meet them in the quarters.::scared::

As amazing as Union's rise over the past few weeks is RPI's stumbling.  The Red Hawk/Little Red/Engineers have lost ten in a row.  They are "due" but they also might be mentally spent.

It would be interesting to see the two north country games tonight.  I'd like to be at both rinks. And quoting Proctor and Bergman, "How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You're Not Anywhere at All?" ::nut::

But I'd really rather be at Lynah.

Also worth editing in here is that both of the streaks are records.

I guess this game was what most of expected.  Played out similarly to the first meeting, although I thought Brown was a much more physical team in Providence.  Good to see the power play actually moving the puck and getting chances.  I like 4 forwards on the top unit, I'm surprised Schafer hasn't used that more this year.

Scrivens is going to need to step his game up against Yale, though, last night was definitely not his strongest game.  I was glad to see Sawada throwing his weight around, albeit only on a couple shifts.  

Yale plays a skilled game that revolves around one timers and moving the puck down low.  They are a good team, but not as good as their record indicates and I'd be disappointed if we can't complete the season sweep.  

I'm glad you seemed to like the cowbell over in D/E, figured it'd be good to mix things up a little.  See you guys in a couple hours

[quote hockeychick470]This is my 3rd season sitting on the D/E boarder.  The cowbell is one of my favorite cheers, especially when I go stand in B or A with friends because it gets extremely  garbled with clapping on the D/E end.  This is the first time that I've seen anyone come to the D/E end to play the cowbell.  Thanks, you made my night.

I agree with this.  There were a number of fans in sections D/E/F/G who have probably never heard the cowbell before, and just assumed it was just a timed clapping chant (but not well timed from my vantage).  Thanks.
