Quote from: scoop85As per Twitter, MC with 4 2nd period goals to go up 4-1

Now 4-2 on a late second period Campbell goal. Just starting third period.

We looked awful. Wish I had saved my 8 bucks.

I came in late, but our faceoffs this series were terrible. That had to be a major hindrance.

I 100% agree. That was bad.

You won't win many when you give up four unanswered.

Long break to think about this game before they hit the ice again. 10-2 isn't too bad.

We're 3rd (behind Wisconsin and Minnesota) in every poll and ranking this week.

Makes sense. Didn't expect anything different. Team probably happy with almost a full month off right now. Some time to rest before the rest of the season's not-so-challenging schedule. At the halfway point, only Mercyhurst coming to Ithaca is a tough game the rest of the way.

I'd say visiting Dartmouth and Sucks will be challenging as well.

And that's the problem.

Agreed. And while Harvard and Dartmouth are good teams, they are not great teams. I don't think we'll go far into the NCAA touranment, if we judge how well we need to play based on those games.

Dartmouth and Harvard -- based on the results in Lynah -- should be easier games this time around with the foursome of Rougeau, Fortino, Johnston and Jenner back. Can't see either of those games as a loss right now even if they are on the road. Quinnipiac, remember, was also considered a top team in the league and we killed them 7-1 in ~~Camden~~ Hamden.

Interesting discussion about the NCAA women's teams at "mid-season". They start by talking about the worst teams in the NCAA.

Women shorthanded again this weekend in the Capital Cities; Mazzotta, Karpenko, White, Campbell, Saulnier and Cudmore with the Canada U-22 team in Europe.

No explanation for the cancelled exhibition game on Monday against St. Lawrence...does anyone know what was behind it?

Thomas Larson · January 06, 2012, 08:54:22 PM

Anyone else get to see the domination at Union today? Minus six players and after a monthlong layoff, this team looks pretty good. Players like Hompe, Ogilvie and Barley-Maloney got in on the action. Union's not great by any stretch, but still pretty encouraging. RPI should be tougher tomorrow.
