CU's 2010-2011 Schedule

Université du Québec à Trois-Ri..... ::demented:: ya... Sucks!

There has to be a French equivalent of 'sucks'. Learn it, Faithful.

UQTR is a damn good program at the CIS level. They have been dominant in the OUA and were ranked 3rd in the CIS Top 10 at the end of last season. A 66-12-4-2 regular season record over the last three years is nothing to sneeze at, even if the CIS isn't on par with NCAA Division I hockey. While Les Patriotes probably won't beat Cornell in October, they aren't a team to take lightly. Sure, a lot of you may not find a Cornell-UQTR matchup to be all that intriguing, and understandably so. But I'll be interested in seeing how one of Canadian college hockey's premier programs fares down in Ithaca.

It'll be good I'm sure. I still remember this game from last year.

For the sake of comparison, last year Windsor lost a three game series in the second round of their tournament on February 26.  UQTR played their last game March 26 in the CIS tournament.  It's a six-team tournament that starts with two groups of three playing round robin, then the top team from each of the two groups playing for the championship.

Perhaps this is the more relevant game to remember....

Yeah, there appears to be a significant disparity between the top CIS/OUA teams and the rest of the pack. Cornell slaughtered Ottawa 8-0 two days after their 0-0 draw with UQTR. Western Ontario is another OUA program that has fared better than most of their peers. They lost 4-3 to Cornell the other year and also beat Ohio State last year. Not too shabby. While some people will say that the Canadian teams are at an advantage due to being less rusty, I say that advantage is negated by the Canadian teams invariably having to play on the road. In any case, it should be a good exhibition game in October.

I just received my season hockey ticket renewal information, and the accompanying letter from Gene Nighman claims there are "20 home games."  Both this schedule and the one on CornellBigRed.com show 17, and that's including the two exhibition games.  Do you think he's actually including some not-at-all-guaranteed home playoffs in his figure?  I think that's kind of ballsy and woof-like.

I've e-mailed him to ask, though I'm pretty sure the answer's yes.

Anyway, if you buy the three playoff tickets that actually would make it twenty games, season tickets work out to $21/game in Section C, $18/game outside of C, and $27/game on the balcony.

I have pointed out that the CU site lists the Florida College Classic on Dec 28-29, while the Everblades site and the other three schools all list it as Dec 29-30.  This makes a slight difference as we lay our holiday travel plans.

It's fixed now.

Woof-like yes, but it doesn't take much to think we won't finish in the bottom 4.

The 20th game could be the Red-White Scrimmage.

[Beeeej]

The 20th game could be the Red-White Scrimmage.

Apart from the fact that this would leave only two other games, and the playoffs might be three, so the math doesn't work... the Red/White scrimmage is never included with season tickets, it's always been separate admission.

I just got mine as well, and was surprised not to see a schedule included.  Haven't past season ticket renewal letters contained a schedule?

It's probably not included because, it seems, it's not quite complete.

That is one of the few things I miss about Indiana; getting mail from the NC$$ very quickly. My fingers are crossed that I too get a letter saying I have tickets.

Is it time for Age to put up the countdown ticker to the Red-White game yet?

[CowbellGuy]

Ticker goes by the ELynah Database schedule, which will be entered when it's finalized

So what's the deal with the Thanksgiving Newark game? Neither Cornell nor Colgate lists it.  I spoke to the ticket office on the phone a week before the schedule came out and was told that Schafer was about to return from vacation and it wouldn't be long until they finalized the paperwork.  Guess they were wrong?
