speaking of the everblades tourney, it's interesting to note that a tie in this tourney brings up a shootout, not OT to advance (i forget if there is an OT period before said shootout). this could be interesting, since we generally are not a team that can score under a 5-minute pressure (the 03 BC and Harvard games being exceptions, yes), but we are probably very solid in penalty shots and goaltending on these shots.

Greg Hornby proved the Big Red can score in OT at least once a year when he put one in 2:30 into OT in the title game last year against (The) OSU. It would have gone to a shootout had it remained a 3-3 tie (in which case the game would be a tie for the purposes of seasons standings and any end of season power rankings) and if I recall OSU's best scorer, Paul Caponigri, had gotten a 10 minute misconduct at about 14:58 of the third period for mouthing off or something that doesn't get you tossed from the game, so he would have been back and eligible to take a crack at McKee.

I would say judging from the performance at the Red-White scrimmage and the results of the skills competition, we have a lot of trouble scoring in shootouts.

Yeah, I haven;t seen anyone at Cornell in years who I would consider to be good at shoot outs/penalty shots/breakaways.  Well, other than the guys with the big sticks and pads...
