Quarterfinals at Q

dbilmes · March 11, 2013, 01:25:21 PM

Tickets are being sold online through ticket office website. They're only selling tickets for Games 1 and 2 so they don't have to deal with refunds after we sweep the series. If by some chance there is a Game 3, fans will have to buy them at Q at the end of Game 2 on Saturday night.

Purchased. Once again, in for Game 1 only due to work commitments on Saturday. Thanks for the info!

If there is a game 3, I hope they're smart enough to again have it at 5 PM. Getting home at 2 AM, to get up at 6, isn't fun.

I don't see that anyone has talked about Iles injury on Fri night and that Hogan was dressed Sat. I assume he was there in case Iles couldn't play? Maybe he was dressed Fri and I just didn't notice. Anyone else notice? Fortunately Iles seemed OK and I never thought about it after that.

They usually dress all three goalies -- home and away.

Gotovets didn't play Saturday again. Anyone know the word? Mowrey looks like he'll be back. When's the last time Cornell beat the #1 team in the country?

I'm just excited 1) To beat Trotsky to the punch and 2) I actually found something I was looking for on his site. ;-)

11/15/96 vs. UVM. That same team also tied #1 Michigan at Yost in January. Since then, CU has only played #1 (however Greg defines it in this chart) once until this season: the 4-3 loss to UHN in the 2002 NCAA QF in Worcester. Also since then, Cornell has 2 wins vs. #2s: 12/06 vs. UNH in Florida and last season's NCAA win vs. Michigan.

There's an index.

(But yeah, I know, search engine. I know.)

Maybe I've missed it at all the away games that I've been to, but Sue Detzer and I both thought it was funny to see Hogan at an away game.

The index was the first place I went. The page I linked to wasn't listed in the index, but then after another frustrating visit to the "Cornell History" section, I found it under the oh-so-obvious "Cool Stuff" heading.

Q has Sunday's possible Game 3 listed as a 7:30 p.m. start time, presumably because their women's basketball team is expecting to be playing in their conference championship game in the attached basketball arena at 5 p.m. If we go to a game three, I'm keeping the hotel room for Sunday night as need a place to work during the day on Sunday.

I'll take the info he has on his site over the design of his site any day.

IIRC, the 2002 NCAA QF game was the game UHN earned our nickname for them by having their fans hold up their letter cards in the wrong order.

It's rare for the third goalie to make trips. Usually Colgate is the only regular season away game they'll take all three to, assuming they have three. Travel restrictions might be different for playoff games.

Jim Hyla · March 13, 2013, 01:04:35 PM

I just spoke to Sue Detzer. CU sold 50 tickets from Ithaca and CC of Hartford has another 50. Band is going so the attendance may be better than PU. Unfortunately I had to call her because now I can't go:`-(, but that means there are tickets at the ticket office if someone needs them.

What design?

BTW, how I define it is the USCHO poll. If I am ever successful in finding the pre-USCHO polling from the days of that TV (radio?) station out of Detroit (St. Paul?), I will include that. This would be nice, since it would capture all of those weeks in the 60's when Cornell must have been in the top 2 or 3.

And yes, your memory is correct, that was the immortal UHN game.
