One thing we have in our favor is Colgate. Picked to finish 11th in the league, now Colgate is looking like it will be playing in March. Having a tough travel partner is an asset.

SLU is in a bad place right now. They lost some talent to graduation after last season but I don't think too many people expected them to be swimming in the toilet of the conference. They obviously have some offensive ability but have only won one game (a OOC in Wisconsin...go figure) since their season started in early October.

Everyone is forgetting they lost the ECAC GOTY, Kyle Hayton. He was not expected to leave and didn't announce till the summer, when SLU couldn't easily replace him.

They currently have the worst GAA and worst SV% in the league. Last year with Hayton they were third in GAA and first in SV%.

Last year they scored 2.81 GPG and GAA was 2.24.

This year they scored 2.00 GPG and GAA is  3.96.

In a nutshell, that's it.

In contrast, Colgate's goalie Colton Point is playing out of his mind.

You were smart enough take a screen shot rather than  retyping it all.  :-)

How did you include that?  I didn't realize you could upload your own image here -- or did you upload it someplace else and then just reference the URL of the image?

Somewhere I also read that they have had quite a few injuries.

According to their USCHO thread, they are so short-handed right now they are calling up a guy from their club team.

The vertical arrow is how you use an image URL (don't do this for sites that ordinarily don't have much traffic); the horizontal arrow is how you upload an image.

Got it.  Thanks.

Beg pardon?

It is a resource drain to the other site if you link the image instead of uploading a new version; every time this page loads, it would ping the source.

Oh.  Thank you.

Some OOC games that could be of significance down the road--Harvard in Minnesota for 2 games and RPI hosting Notre Dame for 2 games. So far, the ECAC (for the most part) has done decently in OOC games and many more will happen within the next month.

I'm not expecting miracles in Troy. But RPI does look better with Smith at the helm. It would be fun to see them pull an upset - they don't have the talent to win a fight with the Irish.

I hope I'm wrong. It will be fun people watching those with ND jerseys in either case.

[Trotsky]

Notre Dame up 2-0 after 1 against RPI.

[marty]

Notre Dame up 2-0 after 1 against RPI.

RPI is fighting like Irish but guns are empty and ND has a great D. PK is near perfect. Engineers did kill a major 15 sec into the 2nd and minor with 4 left in 2nd but that's it.

Still 2-0 after 2.

[Iceberg]

And Minnesota is up 3-0 in the 2nd, so there goes the "help" for today.
