CU at RPI

[marty]

Works great on my Galaxy Nexus 4.2.1 on Verizon4g from inside the field house. I couldn't do this earlier on the year (to my best recollect ion).

Thanks. Though I don't beef it tonight.

It's not that page anymore - You should be able to just go the the video from the site http://rpitv.org/productions/530-hockey-vs-cornell

Nope. Black screen.
But, thanks for the attempt.
Great picture & sound on the laptop.
It freezes quite a bit, but hey...it's free!!

::banana::

That I did fix. If you refresh, it should work much better. A lot of people are having issues with the automatic bitrate switching. Sorry! I'm not sure about the iPad thing. I will have to track one down and do some more testing.

I hope I am not breaking any rules or sacred traditions by starting a thread, but I wanted to let everyone who wasn't going to the hockey game know that we will be streaming the game tomorrow. The game is free, and is going to be here starting at 6:45pm. Plase feel free to share the link; the more the merrier. Maybe we can show you a thing or two about doing streaming right :-D

This is GREAT!! Thanks very much, RPI!

I haven't given Redcast any money in about 3 years.

I may donate to RPItv after tonight, though.

[mackek2]

Thanks for watching everyone! Sorry about the issues at the start of the game.

We would never turn down a donation ::innocent:: Donations are probably going towards a new streaming server for transcoding live video to more bitrates.

During the game between periods I showed my friend the stream. He connected on his iPhone4. His video filled the screen properly. Mine had overscan so that I couldn't see the full picture.

I will check it with different browsers. I am using a less well known browser called Ninesky.

Thanks again.

Only the second RS loss in 13 years at RPI.

Yeah, if only the team had played as well as the video feed.

Oh, well.....lacrosse starts soon.

You've always been a level-headed voice of reason.  On both boards.

Thanks. I try to be, especially when I am on other teams' boards. (Granted there is the picture that I use here as an avatar which shows Doug Hearns in December 1968 scoring in OT against Ken Dryden.)

Back to Burgdoerfer (Eric, not his twin brother Greg who managed to get three years behind him). I don't remember what, if anything, I posted at that time, but his hit four years ago was further away from the boards, and in addition, numerous Emails from USCHO poster DrDemento, who is a medical doctor, have convinced me in the intervening years of the importance of guarding against concussions.

Never write off a season.  We played great Friday.  Our problem is consistency, not ability.  Consistency is a matter of coaching and player discipline, and it's never too late for that all to come together.  Combine it with a goalie who can get hot, and perhaps we have the Kings' 2012 post-season run.

This is shaping up to be a year where Cornell is always in the game, but rarely breaks into a comfortable lead.  Think of us as a .500 team trying to build toward a top-4 bye team.  That will make it a much more fun experience than thinking of us as an underachieving Dreadnought.

I would love for us to come up big next weekend against Yale and Brown.  Nobody is running away with the Ivy title.  We aren't well-positioned, but it's still in reach, it's a fun title to pursue, and those head-to-heads with Yale and Dartmouth will be very important for ECAC standings.

It's honestly hard not to think of them as the best mediocre team you've ever seen when the expectations were a a top 10 team and the talent on the team justifies those expectations.

I know that, but after half a season...

Never write off a season.

This. I can think of a half-dozen seasons off the top of my head where CU has erased/redeemed a non-stellar regular season or a stretch of mid-winter doldrums with a strong post-season run.  The '06 team is looked at as a success, forever remembered for taking Wisconsin to 0-0 in the 3rd OT in Green Bay. They were a frustratingly inconsistent 4-3-1 for the stretch-run in February. The '09 team was 2-5-1 from mid-Jan through mid-Feb, but had many of us seriously dreaming of Washington before hitting the Bemidji blow-up.

The end of the 1980 season is one of the best examples.  I will leave it to one of our number who was a fan then to elucidate.

This team is currently #1 in penalty minutes per game. Combine that with being 57th in penalty kill success (only UAA and Sacred Heart are lower) and an optimist could see a lot of room for improvement. Across the board Cornell's team stat rankings are all below average, so I guess there's hope to be had.
