Annual Awards

[Chris '03]

I guess the ECAC awards are announced tonight, right?

------------------------------------------------


Dryden Award:
Michael Garteig, SO, QU (24-8-6, 1.88, 0.912)
Colin Stevens, JR, Union (22-4-2, 1.95, 0.931)
Andy Iles, SR, Cornell (16-9-5, 2.11, 0.921)
Charlie Finn, FR, Colgate (15-6-4, 2.38, 0.918)
Steve Perry, FR, Clarkson (11-10-3, 2.05, 0.917)

I put the years on there for a reason: this award generally favors upperclassmen. Finn & Perry won't win as freshmen, & don't have the stats to support it anyway. Garteig is a sophomore, has a great record & GAA, but the save % is the worst of the group. Statistically, I can't see a reason Iles should win it over Stevens, unless you really care about a Senior over a Junior and Stevens had a tighter team playing in front of him (it's the system).  Iles was 4th in each category. Stevens was top 2 in each. If Iles doesn't win it this year, he'll be the first Cornell "career" goalie to not have won it since 2000.

Two words on the senior vs. junior issue: Oli Jonas. I think Andy gets this as the Andy Iles career achievement award as much as anything.

And since I went and looked it up, in ECAC games:
Jonas (Sr.): 2.51/.928
Underhill (Jr.): 1.80/.927

Student Athlete of the Year

Andy Iles I hope

Best Defensive Forward:
Daniel Carr, Union
Connor Jones, QU
Ben Sexton, Clarkson
Cole Bardreau, Cornell

This is always the toughest to predict. You never know where the voters are going with this one, so I just threw some names that stand out to me. I pick Carr, seeing all of 1.5 games of him??

My guess is they throw it to a team without other representation in the awards or first team.  That would point to Sexton or somebody from a second division team other than SLU.  Sexton was incredible during the QF.

I guess the ECAC awards are announced Thursday, right?

Rookie of the Year:
Sam Anas, QU (21-21-42)
Matt Carey, SLU (18-19-37)
Gavin Bayreuther, SLU (9-27-36)
Mike Vecchione, Colgate (10-19-29)
Charlie Finn, Colgate (15-6-4, 2.38, 0.918)

Anas got all the press. Pretty sure this is his award. The younger Carey snuck up there.  Finn taking the job from the incumbent is why he gets on the list. Perry's W-L isn't good.

Carey was not named a finalist: http://www.ecachockey.com/men/2013-14/News/20141503_ROTY_Finalists

Best Defensive Forward:

Connor Jones, QU
Ben Sexton, Clarkson

Finalists were tweeted last week:
Carr
K. Jones
Root
Sexton

The ECAC site is brutal for finding information like this...

Rookie of the Year:
Sam Anas, QU (21-21-42)
Matt Carey, SLU (18-19-37)
Gavin Bayreuther, SLU (9-27-36)
Mike Vecchione, Colgate (10-19-29)
Charlie Finn, Colgate (15-6-4, 2.38, 0.918)

Anas got all the press. Pretty sure this is his award. The younger Carey snuck up there.  Finn taking the job from the incumbent is why he gets on the list. Perry's W-L isn't good.

I know Anas got a lot of press, and I know Greg Carey seems like pretty much a lock for Player of the Year (possibly relevant because they've shown a tendency in years past to spread the awards around), but even so, I'd have guessed Bayreuther.  Leading scorer among all defensemen in conference play by a wide margin, leading scorer among all freshmen in conference play (26 points vs. 25 for Anas, 22 for Carey, 17 for Vecchione).

Is it normal that, thirteen years later, this still pisses me off?

Of course, says the person who brought it up without hesitation...  This helped though: http://collegehockeystats.net/0001/boxes/mcorhar1.m16 I'll always remember it as "The David Francis?! Game."

Let's just not have Union get a virtual sweep of the awards. Unless it makes them complacent.:-O Too much celebrating?::banana::

[Trotsky]

For whatever reason, the Ivy League has reconfigured all of their historical pages, with standings which used to be quite good. And Greg's pages only has Ivy Standings going back to 2001, as far as I can tell: http://www.tbrw.info/?/tbrw_Indexes/ivy_History_Index.html

FWIW - my standings pages go back to 9596 for the IVies. Sure, all the links are broken (remember hockey.cornell.edu?) so you have to manually fix the URLS but they're still there on eLynah. Example: http://www.elynah.com/news/9596/finalstand.html
I'm kind of amazed it's all still there and even still has the toolbar.  Probably too much trouble for Age to delete them.

9596 is the only one that appears to work, even with manual URL entry.

edit: nm, I got it,  That string format also changes in 97.

What's up with the announcement (or more accurately the lack thereof) of awards? I've checked the ECAC Hockey website and USCHO.com, and there's nothing at either site. Could it be possible that they're not announcing these awards before the semi-finals this year? The Cornell-Union game starts in about thirty minutes.

The awards have now been announced. Found this on USCHO: http://www.uscho.com/2014/03/21/ecac-hockey-announces-three-more-13-14-awards/

Stevens got the Dryden award.
