Cornell vs Colgate, 2/7/26

[JasonN95]

My favorite rendition was (Ryan) Smart-(Alex) Dumas, a Dartmouth sieve, circa 1997.

I always enjoyed from my time [students point to our goale Parris Duffus] "Duffus!" [students point to opponent's goalie] "Doofus!"

The fish and the tubes are funny, but they're easy to take too far.

The toothpaste tubes aren't even funny, they're just embarrassing and I really wish whichever moron house started them would stop.

I swear to God, I thought it was empty toothpaste boxes. Not actual, usable tubes. Can you imagine how much of a pain it would be to clean one of those if it broke open?

This regular season matchup has given us fits for years now.  They haven't had a regular season sweep vs Colgate since before the pandemic.

Based on that recent history I think a four point weekend would have been something to hope for earlier in the season when looking ahead.  Once they got the regulation road win on Friday though you would want to finish the deal at home on Saturday.

There were plenty of opportunities to take control of that game.  I was worried about getting dragged into scrums to get them off their game.  I wasn't expecting more self destructive moments though (Castagna major on top of the Walsh suspension).  Cornell has nice depth but it's really tough to replace the caliber of the players that they lost.

Unless I missed it, I'm surprised no one's mentioned that among all the other bizarre officiating tonight was that Stanley appeared to get pulled down immediately before Colgate's gift-wrapped OT winner.

And the pile of players that got pushed across the blue line to gain the zone had the puck carrier in the back.

Shocked there wasn't a look to see if that was offsides.

They lost their timeout after the failed Kraft goal challenge right so they couldn't challenge for offside?

That makes sense, but wouldn't the refs look at it anyway because it was a huge play on a close call at the end of the game?

Or do they not do that. Would understand if not, kinda defeats the penalty for using your challenge, but it happens in a lot of sports.

I'm not sure Tom Brady could spiral an empty toothpaste tube tight enough to actually carry it over the glass.  Which means DU would start weighting them with batteries.  Don't give the apes any ideas.

Schafer more than once told us he just assumed someday shit on the ice would end a Cornell player's career. 

(He had no idea it would more likely be an advertising ribbon. But, hey, #yellcornell is so clever.)

DU?

Batteries?

That goal interference call is pretty bizarre given the calls I have seen happen all year on those types of play.

The D is riding the Cornell kid from 3-4 ft out of the crease all the way thru to the goalie and has his stick around him to control him.  Not sure what else he could have done other than fall down once they started gliding.  Once they got into the crease which he can do then what he could have done other than what he did. He tried to not hit the goalie but the D gave him no out and is clearly pushing him

Seems so clear from the video.

Casey said:
I mean, the [Colgate] kid's got his stick right up underneath [Pirtle's] gut and pushed him right into [the goaltender]," Jones said. "So I'm going to get clarification from the league, but I don't know. I don't know where he was supposed to go. I don't know."

What does he mean about clarification from the league?

I interpret that as Casey expressing extreme dissatisfaction with the call, but not sufficiently directly to get himself suspended.
