Reset clock for extra 4 seconds at the end of the game.  Then after the buzzer, some fights.  

Cornell wins anyway.

Any word on why Iles started back-to-back?

[Trotsky]

Cornell finishes January 5-1-2 and alone in 6th place.  They get the win despite no points from the Miller line, and they have their best Harvard-Dartmouth road trip in the 6 years since the re-establishment of that traveling partnership.

Any word on why Iles started back-to-back?

Garman was "feeling under the weather."

[David Harding]

Any word on why Iles started back-to-back?

The Ithaca Journal said this morning the the article about yesterday's game,

Iles made a few saves on flurries late in the third period, starting his first Friday game of the season. Normally the weekend's second starter in the goalie platoon, Iles was pressed into duty with junior Mike Garman fighting off the flu.

Schafer said Garman will be re-evaluated before Saturday's game at Harvard.

Gotchya, thanks!

we definitely outplayed Harvard the first two periods, but Harvard took it to us in the third period, when we didn't help our own cause by taking two ill-advised penalties in the offensive zone. The way we've been blowing late leads this season, it was quite a relief to see us hold on to one this time. The one goal Harvard did score came off a defensive giveaway in our own zone, and Iles made some excellent saves.
As for the Great Harvard Whiteout, that consisted of a few dozen Harvard students wearing T-shirts they were handed at the game. Otherwise, it was a sea of red. The Harvard fans (yes -- they do have a few) sitting next to me during the second period commented on the how much red was in the crowd, and the fact that it was the first time they had noticed the rink being full this season.
The did post the final score for the Harvard-Cornell basketball game on the scoreboard. Last year, when we also played at Harvard in both sports on the same night, they didn't post the basketball score -- perhaps because Harvard lost that game!

Iles was the difference. Absolutely robbed H. on three occasions. First time seeing him live.  Deceptively small, but laser quick feet.  Loved that the Harvard student section rose to cheer, and then realized that he actually got the foot out.  Think Tim Thomas, but doesn't have to flop because he has the angles.  

At least 3/4 Red for fan turnout.  I noticed in the Harvard program that Jan 29th was a promotional "White Out" night for the Harvard fans. We got a chuckle out of that.  There were probably 20 students wearing white in the building.

PS: I did my grad work at Harvard.  Go Big Red.  Props to the Cornell band.

Then after the buzzer, some fights.  

And a resulting game DQ for D'Agostino, which means we lose him for next Friday's game against Clarkson.

I didn't see the beginning of the fracas, what was the DQ for?

[Towerroad]

I did not see who it was but at the end of the game there was a Red player that was holding a Harvard player pinned to the ice for over a minute. I did not see how it started either but the game was getting chippy late and having to beat them a second time after the 4 sec reset may have set it off.

[Josh '99]

I'll nominate Andy for GOTW.  Heck of a game last night.

Agreed.  Couple of incredible saves going side-to-side to save what I thought were certain goals on cross-crease passes.
