Cornell Alumni in the Pros: March 2012

[Aaron M. Griffin]

Ben Scrivens was called up by the Leafs today, with Jussi Rynnas being sent back down to the Marlies.

And just like that, Scrivens is sent back down and Rynnas is brought up without Ben even dressing for a game. Leafs coach Randy Carlyle said it was a "reward" for Scrivens so that he could earn NHL money for a day.

Now he can buy quite a few cups of coffee at his local Tim Horton's. Guess Ben will be bringing the donuts to his next Marlies team meeting. :-P

Ah, that's a shame.  I was hoping to see him on TV tonight (Flyers play the Leafs).

It would have been, but at least I don't have conflicting interests now.

I would have had no conflicting loyalties in that game. :-D

Note that I said interests, not loyalties. I woulda hope for Ben to play well and then Claude to pull that sick dangle for the third time this year against Toronto (He also did it preseason)

I just wanted to seize on one of the rare opportunities to support Toronto unequivocally. Such opportunities are few and far between for Sabres fans. Were it Scrivens at Toronto against Buffalo, I would hope that both Miller and Scrivens played an amazing game and be contented with whichever outcome resulted.

Scrivens was amazing to watch at Cornell.

I'm totally pro-Scrivens, but I could never root unequivocally for Toronto. Not after they employed Tie Domi...

Avoiding the joke about a fan of the Broad Street Bullies disliking a team for its employment of an enforcer.

I've put off buying a Scrivens NHL jersey (I own a game-worn Cornell one) in case that he ends up with a more palatable franchise.

Uh huh. Like you're not going to have Scrivens jerseys from every team he plays for (excepting maybe one).

Ben may be back in the Air Canada Center real soon. Gustavsson got hurt in warm-ups tonight and couldn't play.

[David Harding]

Last night was also Greening's 100th game in Ottawa. He played a great game.

Ottawa's Greening Prepared for the Long Haul

Greening credited much of his success last season to his decision to play a full collegiate career at Cornell. Now, he can also thank his time with the B-Sens for making him the player he is today.
...
"This time last year, there were about seven or eight of us that we're getting shipped up and down, driving all night to get back to Binghamton and driving all day to get here to Ottawa. Those kinds of experience are very, very important when you look at back it. Everyone's tired this time of year, because we've gotten banged up, but we went through that last year, really pushing to get that playoff spot. Those experiences really, really help us, especially right now."

[Rita]

Sharks D Douglas Murray apparently was injured during the first period. The team didn't immediately update his condition. ...

Hope Douglas is back very soon.

He is out for tonight's game v. the Coyotes due to a "lower body injury".

Good thing Ben wasn't playing.  The Leafs left Rynnas hung out to dry.  7-1 Flyers.

Has nothing to do with him being an enforcer and everything with being the Rob Artest of hockey.
