That was two upsets.

[quote French Rage][quote daredevilcu]Does anyone feel a sting of familiarity? Cornell in 2nd, Clarkson @ Union. One upset sends Clarkson to Lynah, etc etc...[/quote]

Does anyone on Clarkson have VD this year?[/quote]

Wouldn't it still be two upsets? Clarkson upsetting Union and one other,

Clarkson has the chance to make history. Come on, Knights, go for it -- become the first team to lose a playoff series to Union!

I think things turned out pretty well for us considering. But for us to get off the nc$$ "bubble" I think we have to make it to the finals of the ECAC. If were to lose in the semis I think we might have trouble getting in. Two seed if we win it or three seed if we're runner-up.

Win it all and ruin the suspense.

Posting a little late, but what a fantastic end to the game. When was the last time we came back from 2 down in the third?

Props to the band for playing Schafer outside the rink in order to let Brown have their senior night in peace. Also for being the only band in the rink that didn't sound like a funeral march every time they played.

Finally, what's with the playoff series falling on the first weekend of spring break?? I took vacation and planned to go for the game (and I am) but everyone's gonna be gone.... :-(

Don't the quarters typically fall on the first week of break? At least that's how it was when I was on East Hill.

Come on, You're sounding like CU did this to you. They have no control. Also, spring break varies for different schools. Don't you remember when the Harvard band left after their team won the semis because they were starting their break and couldn't stay for the finals.::thud::

I hope that wasn't intended for me, Jim.

Can you really count Union as a favorite in the playoffs? Ever? Come on. But honestly, I thought it was pretty obvious that I meant one OTHER upset, even if you do count U as a favorite.

Hey, count me as one who would much rather we play a Wong-less Quinnipiac or typically-toothless Union than a healthy Clarkson.

PS I just wanted to type "Wong-less."

Against Colgate in November, although that one ended in a tie.
