Quote from: Jim HylaSure, but somehow they didn't list our game as one of the "top" ones of the weekend & in the ECAC section Brown vs Providence is the only listing.

So they deserved a little jab, that's all.

Anyway I'll probably bump into Adam at MSG. After all he said in his podcast that it was where he was going. He can smack me then. :)

I'm a lover not a fighter.

For one, it's a miracle any college hockey coverage exists at all anymore.

For two, that list of top games comes from a simple algorithm, written by me, where it takes any games with two teams in the top 30 of the Pairwise, and then orders them based on combined Pairwise rank, descending. I think Colgate/Princeton must be in there as a glitch, where it's being counted as 0 - so I need to fix that. BU wouldn't qualify, since they are 38th - meaning that that game, in the national picture, is awful - really. Thanks to BU.

People like to complain.  New Yorkers really like to complain.  Don't worry about it.  (Also, move.  The best thing about starting from ground zero is anywhere else you go people are good to be with.)

At the risk of woofing, I figured our lack of inclusion had nothing to do with us and everything to do with BU's less than stellar performance so far.

NESN also thinks Colgate/Princeton in more important than BC/Harvard. The latter started at 4:30 PM, but NESN kept C/P, complete with post-game coaches' interviews, on until 5:00 PM, when there were less than 2 minutes left in Q1 of BC/H, and H led 1-0.

The fun part of that BC/H game is that Harvard led 2-0 with 2:30 left in the 2nd and hit the 2nd intermission behind. BC won 4-2, knocking H out of the ranks of the unbeaten teams.

That's well past Vintage Harvard Bean Pot and into Vintage Harvard NC$$ Tournament.

Rats.  I was hoping WE would be the ones to do that.  Now they'll be more pumped to do US.

i do not think motivation would be much of a problem for an undefeated harvard - undefeated cornell game.

This link is to CBS Sports, which is currently showing the 1st period between RPI & Merrimack. It is ECAC v HE, but what happens at 8 PM?
