Quinnipiac QF

[Trotsky]

The metaphysical ideal is IMHO Cornell, Clarkson, Harvard, St. Lawrence.  If I was picking the Mount Rushmore of the conference that is who I would choose.  It happened once in 1991.

yeah but that sucked

Well, yes.  As did 2002.

Nein.

The metaphysical ideal is Cornell, Clarkson, Harvard, and either SLU or RPI. The last classic year was 2002.

Perhaps this was the thinking when they tried that awful final five format.

In case you're wondering.

Hey StatBoy, I was actually wondering when the last six-goal period happened.

Chop chop.

[djk26]

A very nice beginning to a big weekend for Cornell sports.  We'll be cheering on the bball team and lacrosse team, too.

What you got for my rice bowl, memsahib?

[RichH]

COR 9
QUI 1 F

DAR 4
HAR 1 2:04 3

CLG 2
CLK 1 F

PRN 5
UNI 3 F

Soooo...unless HAR comes back, Cornell is the only higher seed in the ECAC to win tonight. Wow.

Harvard didn't come back.  Current playoff leaders:

7 Princeton
1 Cornell

6 Colgate
5 Dartmouth

Princeton is the most dangerous team in the East, ignoring a fully-healthy CU. (Edit: shit, I forgot about BEANPOT CHAMPION OF THE ALL IMPORTANT HUB, Northeastern. They're more complete than PU AND they have a huge top line.)

Kufner & Véronneau are #2 & #3 in the nation in points and Kufner just tied for the national league in goals, even with the reduced-game Ivy schedule. They also have the #1 scoring d-man in the nation.

But their D is weak and CU has proven many times (most recently in the 2017 ECAC semi) that they can shut down a one super-duper line team. If any/all of the other home teams go down, it's a boost if we advance.

[Scersk '97]

I don't want it to happen at our expense, but I dearly hope the teams in both barns get their houses in order.

I love RPI's fans and I have had many great experiences in Troy.  And I know exactly what you mean about Houston and it's my 4th favorite ECAC building (Lynah, Appleton, Baker) since the night they drove old Walker down.

Got to see two games in Walker during my sister's college visit to Potsdam. What an amazing place... and so small! Cheel was such an enormous downgrade.

If we're ranking:

Code Select Expand


(1) Lynah      
(2) Houston     Saw that afternoon game. With the new windows, the sun shone in beautifully. Felt good on my 101º fever.
(3) the Whale
(4) Appleton    Always too bad that SLU can't put together a decent band for any stretch of time.
(5) Thompson    Deep and well-pitched. Dartmouth is on its way, unfortunately, to obliterating the game-time atmosphere.
(6) Bright
(7) Meehan      I like the seats, physically; I like how I can choose to sit in any seat I please.
(8) Achilles    Would be better if the Union fans could control their children. A little "high-schooly."
(9) Baker       I like the gallery; I like the Princeton band. The rest of the fans blow. Feels small in a really bad way. Claustrophobia-inducing.
(10) Cheel      Just awful. Always expect to see a popcorn ceiling when I look up.

(NR) That new Colgate place

And that's all.

Damn, that's delicious research. I owe you a beverage at whatever side-street dive we find ourselves at in Lake Placid. (I'm going no matter what, so don't accuse me of woofing.) I'm sure my Junior-year twit self really enjoyed that game.

Chop chop.

You totally did. And I absolutely remember that. ::whistle::

[RichH]

So now Schafer has seen more 5-goal periods as coach than he saw during his Senior season.

[redliner]

According to the Quinnipiac Chronicle, Pecknold refused to speak to the media after the game. He also didn't let his players talk. http://www.quchronicle.com/2018/03/caits-column-no-9-quinnipiac-mens-ice-hockey-gets-trounced-by-no-1-cornell/

Lotta red this season.
