Quote from: The fact that Cornell is one of the nation's biggest teams, playing a physical, grinding and disciplined brand of hockey, is a big contributor.

I wonder if Mr. Peters watched any Cornell tape this year?

In case this was not posted somewhere already (I just stumbled on it myself), some interesting analysis and commentary on the NMich series:

That article is excellent. Anybody know who wrote it? Is it Brandon?

We should recognize the people who have done great work on Cornell hockey in media. Maybe have a Cornell Hockey Media HOF. Off the top of my head:

Roy Ives
Grady Whittenburg
Art Mintz
Thomas Fleischman
Adam Wodon
Jason Weinstein
Tony Eisenhut
Brandon Thomas
John Whelan
Age Manocchia

Brandon's writing on Cornell hockey is top-notch, whether it's his game summaries, the Off the Crossbar feature, or his Freshman Friday Q&As. It's especially important given that the IJ doesn't really cover Cornell sports any longer.

I know it hasn't been very long yet, but you may want to consider adding Topher Scott to that list. I don't miss a lot of home games, so I don't often wind up hearing his color commentary. But this past weekend I was away, so watched both games on ESPN+. Topher did a great job! On a few occasions he was pointing things out as teaching moments for any youth hockey players watching. I hope he'll continue providing the color commentary for the ESPN+ broadcasts.
