Do you start Stewart tonight? Might be good to get him some in-game practice before the playoffs in case he has to take over for Galajda at some point. It's also his final regular season game. The game also has no bearing on our standing in the league and probably marginal standing in the pairwise.

Assuming either a Denver win over St. Cloud State or a Denver/SCSU tie, and the other two teams in the top five (Notre Dame, Minnesota State) win, a Cornell loss to Union drops us to #5. Even a SCSU win over Denver and the other two teams winning means a Cornell loss to Union drops us to #4.

EDIT: That said, a Denver win and Notre Dame/Minnesota State wins still drops us to #4 even if we beat Union.

Stewart's statistically at least just as good as Matt.

I wouldn't mind giving him one more start, not to mention one fewer look by Union at Galajda in case we meet again.

I'd give Stewart the start. He isn't clearly worse, and may actually be better but with poorly timed injuries. The PWR risk for tonight is no different in the ECAC tournament, tbh, and any drop tonight can be corrected by storming through LP.

I can't believe how little he's played this year and kind of wish he'd gotten the call on Senior Night. My heart grew three sizes typing this.

you assume that because he is dressing that he is ready to go..

Well, kinda.  If he isn't ready he shouldn't be dressed.

Our goal light only lights on one side, ya see.

Colton Point was not only dressed but played last night in the tie vs. Union.  He had missed the last four games.

Senior Chase Perry has not dressed for RPI in weeks and I haven't found any reference to this - though I haven't scoured USCHO and other Engineer hangouts.  Ursus?

Gee that's strange... I noticed a similar quirk at RPI last night.  Whenever we scored the goal light seemed to be on a seven-second delay.::wtf::

Geez - I knew the attorney job market was bad.  But THAT bad???

Lawyers love a good "discount" just as much as anyone else. We have no real problem spending $8.95 on a single game with as-yet-unknown quality of picture, camera work, and commentary, it's just not our favorite thing about tonight's game.

I paid to watch the women play at Union.  The feed was okay; certainly no worse than ILN.
