Minnesota 4, Harvard 1 - About 9 min to go

IINM, Harvard has lost at least their last 12 NC games.

Perusing on USCHO, Saturday's loss was indeed their 13th NC loss in a row (including a NC loss to Dartmouth, but not including ECAC playoff games).  Their last NC win was 2/4/08 over Northeastern - shockingly, a Beanpot win!  Their only two NC remaining this year are the Beanpot games, and their first round opponent this year is BC, easily the strongest team in the 'pot this year - no way they should win that game.  They'll at least have a shot in the consolation.

Clarkson beat and tied Huntsville this weekend.

Robert Morris, which earned a split with Q back when Q was good, beat #1 Miami on Friday.

SLU(t) lost to Niagara last night.

For purposes of comparison, Wisconsin beat the U-18 team 7-1. Iles didn't play.

Q finished their zero point weekend by losing 2-1 in OT to Union.

And Union becomes first in the ECAC. Has this happened before?

Only in my nightmares.

BTW, RPI's game at Princeton is on ESPNU at 3 PM EST today.

Q finished their zero point weekend by losing 2-1 in OT to Union.

Quinnipiac dropped out of the Top 25 in RPI (to 27) and is not currently a TUC for Pairwise.  They have the same winning percentage as Cornell but a lower strength of schedule. RPI is at no. 30 28 in RPI.  For those scoring at home, Harvard is 56 (out of 58).

RPI wins 4-1 at Hobey Baker rink.

[JasonN95]

It's stunning how the wheels have fallen off Kalemba, who was player of the year and goalie of the year in the ECAC last year.

Miami lost again to Robert Morris yesterday. Records before this weekend: Miami 13-2-5, RMU 3-12-3.

RPI wins 4-1 at Hobey Baker rink.

I watched some of the game on TV and was wondering why the announcer kept referring to the "great rivalry between these two schools." Does he know something we don't know about the storied rivalry between Princeton and RPI?

I made a similar comment on the game thread on USCHO. There is no particular rivalry between RPI and Princeton. The announcers weren't particularly bad, but tended to exaggerate about many things. It was nice to see RPI win a nationally televised game for a change, and also to see RPI's power play much improved over its 8.7% last year and 7.1% two years ago.

The only game of note that comes to mind is the 1995 ECAC Championship.  (Both teams had to pull off upsets to get there.)

That alone doesn't make a rivalry, RPI also destroyed Princeton in the two-game first-round series of the 1985 ECAC playoffs, enroute to the NCAA championship.

Not worth a new topic: Harvard hosts Yale tonight (1/12) at 7 PM

One poster on USCHO says "THIS IS HARVARD's SUPER BOWL" and this person is "confident that BOTH teams will bring their A-games, and that Yale's A-game beats Harvard's."

[Trotsky]

Harvard being less useless than usual tonight, leading Yale 3-1 in the third.  The WHRB announcers are more mouth-breathier than usual -- one of them sounds like Peter Lorre as a teenager.
