Not bad. I also think Clarkson doesn't make LP. And that leaves a one game SF against a Goalie who might just stand on his head.

The way Brown played this weekend, beating both Harvard and Dartmouth, they could upset Princeton. That would give us a quarterfinal series against them, instead of having to play one of the CT teams.

I suspect that the tournament page was just modified from last year and eventually they will announce that Boxcast will stream the games, one at a time.

Hopefully they are waiting because they are going to have an all tournament offering, instead of just game-by-game.

He says, knowing full well that they'd never be that nice to us.:-O

You misspelled 100-0

[BigRedHockeyFan]

Sorry.

Not to bring reality and fear to this discussion, but I would rather we were playing just about any of the other remaining lower seeds—certainly Dartmouth and Princeton, and perhaps even Colgate.

Strangely, I am happy we have a potentially tough opponent this weekend.  I'm still wary of our weaker schedule and am hoping a series against a tough opponent will have them firing on all cylinders for games in the following two weeks.

[BigRedHockeyFan]

With a couple of bumps from Cornell, they will hopefully end up in the mid-thirties Pairwise.  

I just don't like them.  They buzz around, shoot, shoot, shoot.  They don't have a system.

[Cornell95]

I am considering driving up to Lake Placid for the tournament this year.
What is the ticket situation usually like, particularly if Cornell and Clarkson make the semifinals?


Do I need to buy ticket(s) in advance? Are tickets typically available at the venue day of contest?
I have anywhere from 0-4 siblings/friends considering joining me for the weekend.

It does feel different this year, with Cornell going into the ECAC assured of a spot in the NCAA. I think Q is a tougher matchup than any of the 5-7 seeds with the possible exception of Princeton. But I would like to see Cornell back up its great season against a weaker schedule and gain some experience and confidence by taking down some more formidable opposition.

Agreed. And with any luck, the two weeks off will have given our boys a chance to get healthier and stronger.

There will be no problem getting tickets at the door. People simply don't travel for sporting events like they used to.
