Quote from: mattj711Congrats to Amanda Mazzotta for being named the ECAC GOTW again. Her 10 shutouts on the season now match Cornell's ice hockey shutout record holder, David McKee, for the school record in a season.

Yeah, but she's not as good as this looks. It's really the system that makes her look good. ::laugh::

Well, to be fair, McKee wasn't as good as he looked. He really needed to stay, or go to a place where he could work on fundamentals. It turns out that place wasn't the minors.

Jim,

Who said anything about being fair?

Congrats to Laura Fortino, Lauriane Rougeau and Catherine White who are in the initial group of 45 players nominated for the 2010 Patty Kazmaier award.

Cornell up 1-0 on RPI after 1, thanks to a goal by Hughes assisted by K. Overguard. Cornell has the shots on goal edge 5-3. The first period was definitely a defensive emphasis by each side. Clarkson and Dartmouth are currently tied 1-1 in the first.

1-1 after 2. Cornell has the shots edge 16-10. We gave RPI a few too many scoring opertunities for my liking that period. Hopefully we come out and take charge in the third. The good news is Dartmouth is up 2-1 on Clarkson in the second.

Cornell wins 2-1, thanks to a goal by K. Overguard from White in the third!! AAAAND...Dartmouth beats Clarkson 4-1.....soooooo the ladies are in first. As long as they take care of business against Union tomorrow (which I will not take for granted starting tomorrow morning), first place is theirs to keep!!!

How does the women's playoff system work?

From here: Top eight qualify. Best-of-3 quarterfinals Feb. 26-28 at higher seeds. Semifinals and championship played Friday and Sunday respectively, all at highest remaining seeds. This document doesn't specify which weekend that is, but it sounds like the next weekend, so 3/5 and 3/7.

Cornell is up on Union 3-1 after 1. Shots on goal are 13-3.

4-1 Cornell after 2. Karpenko scores again from Ogilvie. Shots on goal 26-6.

Cornell wins 6-1 and is now the 2010 ECAC champs!!

Regular season champs, yes, and quite the accomplishment. Not sure whether they get a trophy for that as the men do.

Trophy presentations took place immediately after the seniors were honored post-game. An embarrassment of riches -- first the Ivy League trophy and then the ECAC trophy. [Ivy League trophy is larger and nicer].

This is a tremendous accomplishment and these players deserve a huge turnout when they host the quarterfinals next Friday, Saturday [and Sunday if necessary]. It was announced that Colgate is the opponent. No announcement yet as to game times but I suspect the first two will be afternoon games since the men are at home next weekend.
