I've been audio only this season so I;m not up on the latest and greatest in Cornell video, but I just looked at the goals Marty posted (thank you!). May be the person who did the "exploding bear" thing before the replays can make dancing fish for us .

I took my 8 year old son to his first game at Lynah.  Good one to start on!  LGR!!!

some thoughts.

Cornell played pretty well most of the game. a couple great saves on the 2 breakaways, both teams hit a couple posts, but cornell generated more quality chances.

you can see that Cornell lacks the speed of harvard, too many times harvard skated around cornell players causing issues.

did anyone see something as to why the 2 times harvard ran over Gillum nothing was called? I would assume some kind of cornell push but I had a pretty good view of the second one and didnt see any cornell contact.

the refs just completely ignored the extra skaters harvard put on the ice after the one icing call. 5 guys came over the boards and the 2 refs who were standing right there put their hands up to say no change and then ignored it and skated away and harvard ended up with 7 men for the faceoff?  could not have been more blatant,

Here's the Harvard Crimson story on the game. We're supposed to feel sorry for them because two of their top players were injured during the game.

Curious.
Terrible in what way? Attitude? Attendance?
I did notice that they were throwing cheaper types of fish this year.

Wasn't he speaking of other games? I thought his meaning was that he wanted the electricity that was in Lynah last night to be there always - with an extra bit for games against rivals like Harvard.

This has been discussed on here ad nauseam (there are multiple threads devoted to the topic), but yeah, both attitude and attendance.  I've found the Harvard Game crowds to be as great as always, but the other games' crowds to be much more late/absent/quiet than those of 8 years ago.

Yeah.  Sorry if that wasn't clear from above.

Wouldn't be a problem if he made the NCAA tourney a bit more often and win some games when he gets there.

Gotta throw the bullshit flag on that one.  Winning games in-season is the thing. Playing an entertaining brand of hockey also would help- not necessarily wide-open offensively but also not in a style that makes you feel like it's over if we go down 1-0.  Even hoops filled the gym when they were winning  before NCAA bids came out.  Win in season and the ECAC and NCAA follows.
 
Last night's team looked NOTHING like the team that lost to RPI and Princeton.  Gimme last night's team consistently and the crowds will be there again.

What a game we got from Gillam!
