One of our favorite foes, Quinnipiac, had to cancel its first two games and suspend all hockey activities due to positive Covid tests.

St. Lawrence has postponed all of its games through Christmas. The ECAC season is off to a great start!

On the plus side, we're still undefeated.

Quote from: TroyfanBig East is playing, Big 10.  Why not ECAC? College football is playing with fits and starts.  Games cancelled or rescheduled.  But they're managing.

I don't know if a hockey program is like a train that you can just hop on and hop off and it just keeps going.  Once players start going somewhere else they keep going there.  Programs become places to be or to consider.  Others also with good coaches, facilities fall off the radar.

Programs are either rising of falling.  BU, Michigan, us, etc., have had stretches of glory and stretches of gloom. Times have been good  lately, each year better than the last.  It would a shame for it to peter out for what turns out to be no reason.
Your last two words are utter nonsense.  Get your head out of...the sand.

"No reason" doesn't refer to covid per se.  It means the impact of canceling hockey (and other sports) on reducing its spread.  That it may be an overreaction and that less extreme measures may be just as good.

And we still have The Belt.

Rochester D&C article on the Cornell hockey season that will not be.  

To my annoyance, the D&C rarely acknowledges Cornell sports, not even mentioning Penfield's Lindsay Browning '21.

Great article, but heartbreaking all the same.

Quote from: George64An interview with Mike.
Good work by Mike not just giving rote answers.  He considers what he is saying.  Professional throughout and a good balance between facts and a feel for how difficult this has been for his players and their families.

Well done by both interviewer and subject.
