Colgate is wining because of great goaltending, Colton Point is .965. Can he maintain that?

Crikey. The ECAC has some early season :-O between the pipes.

Working on it. Give me five more minutes.

EDIT: Okay, I didn't manage to retain anything resembling chronological order, but at least it's all now on its own thread. I did it kind of quickly to avoid complications, so if anybody spots anything that should really belong in the Big Thread, please let me know and I'll try to correct it.

Great work.  Thank you.

I wondered how I had a thread with 74 new posts.

I assumed it was our old friend the Spambot.

Because it had been thirty posts since you had 59 new posts.

This obviously ranks up with the greatest Harvard Games of all time and might be the best hockey game I've seen in person (and I've been lucky to see some pretty good ones). Not 2003 ECAC final status, of course (I wasn't there), but in the running for best regular season Harvard clash. 2013-14 (another 2-goal comeback plus Lowry's late-OT winner) is another candidate, as is 2014-15 (Freschi scoring with under a minute to go; Harvard ranked #4). I would give the nod to Saturday night because of the comeback, the McRae Harvard decommit storyline, the fact both teams should be good this year (with Harvard coming off a Frozen Four appearance), the wild ending including the bench minor, and the fact the goal was scored with two seconds remaining.

EDIT: 2013-14 was on Senior Night--maybe have to give it to that one, then.

A trip down Memory Lane.

And let us not forget the forgettable movie, Love Story, which brought some notoriety to the rivalry.

Cornell Hockey is never having to say you're sorry.

Yeah, did anything happen after the hockey game in that movie?  I've never bothered to watch past that point...

When they used to show it at Olin every Fall we'd all walk out after we win.  That is the end of the movie.

I hear one of them dies.

I'd watch it for a few minutes more to see a beat up Ryan O'Neal 'cause we did it to him.  But after that...get the remote.

Classic photo — the look on McCrea's face, the Harvard player checking the clock, the crowd in a frenzy: https://twitter.com/bt_unassisted/status/929743292916469760

And if anyone in the crowd missed this because they were on their phone, I don't see 'em. Impressive.
