2011 ECAC Post-season

[Trotsky]

Colgate has scored twice in the third to cut it to 3-2 with about 1:30 to go.

[Jim Hyla]

Friday games, start of the third period, one underdog winning. Teddy Donato must like his job after all:

First Round Playoffs:

Colgate at RPI < 3-0 < FINAL RPI 4-2
St. Lawrence at Princeton < 3-1 < FINAL Princeton 4-1
Harvard at Clarkson < Harvard 1-0 < FINAL Harvard 2-1
Brown at Quinnipiac < Q 4-0 < FINAL Q 4-0

So the only underdog to win was Harvard and it looks like they were outplayed. Oh well. Colgate played pretty well against RPI, so there may be some hope for an upset there. It would be tough to see the only upset as Harvard.

[Trotsky]

If these results held for the series, the QF would be:

Harvard at Union
Quinnipiac at Yale
Princeton at Dartmouth
RPI at Cornell

[Trotsky]

First Round Playoffs:

Colgate at RPI < 3-0 < FINAL RPI 4-2
St. Lawrence at Princeton < 3-1 < FINAL Princeton 4-1
Harvard at Clarkson < Harvard 1-0 < FINAL Harvard 2-1 (upset)
Brown at Quinnipiac < Q 4-0 < FINAL Q 4-0

So seeds 5-6-8-11 win

Bill, that last one is 10 instead of 11.

[Josh '99]

So seeds 5 - 6 - 8 - 10(Harvard) win [edit fixing H was 10 not 11. They just seemed that bad.]

They didn't at Lynah a couple weeks ago.

The Cantabs had help.

USCHO reports only 758 attended the Princeton - St Lawrence game at Baker Rink.  Another reason why talented players should want to attend
Cornell - where hockey matters!

Well, if players still go to Harvard, then you know you've already lost the argument.

Except those suffering from agoraphobia.

There is more D, C and B goraphobia at Cornell than at some of the others.

SLU up on Princeton 3-2 late in their game 2 (early start).

Colgate pretty much won the second period Friday and was all over RPI in the third.  One nice touch at the game was that the rink electrical wizards with the help of RPITV.org was using the new scorboard to better advantage.  The penalty clock didn't take up all the real estate on the TV section.  Some replays of the infractions leading the the penalties were played as the penalties were announced.

And that's how it ended.

[marty]

Colgate has 1:4? left on a power play to start their second period leading 1-0. They won the first ten minutes with RIP revived from their moribund state as the period progressed.

The morgue has more fans in the seats tonight and that::cheer::'s a good thing.

From the Clarkson radio announcers:
Clarkson on the penalty kill late in the 1st period ...
"Clarkson is looking more like Cornell, which is a good thing."
They went on to explain that Cornell PKers hang the stick out there to disrupt passes and such, but without getting a penalty.  They were glad to see their Golden Knights learning good technique.
Nice compliment.
