Quote from: stereax on February 01, 2026, 12:00:03 PMAccording to my and Trots's perusal:

Cornell is in the driver's seat to win the Ivy title. Three points against Princeton gets the job done.

If less than 3 points, Dartmouth has the chance to sweep the rest of their slate (@HVD, @YAL, @BRN, PRN) and beat us on tiebreak.

As far as I remember, the Ivy League does not apply tiebreakers to league titles. If two teams have the same record, they share the title regardless of head to head results. I assume this applies to hockey, even in the "derp points" era. Tiebreakers do apply for seeding in the case of a postseason tournament.
Yeah, I think we shared a title a few years back, no?

I remember that in 2023 we won the Ivy League on points (25-24) with fewer "wins" than Harvard. We were 8-2 while they were 9-1 with three OT wins. Their fan on USCHO was a bit salty.
They have fans?
One alum armed with Wi-Fi.

They do get tons of marauding rink rats in Meehan.  Much like Achilles' gavroches and Appleton's werewolf children.
