I wonder if any of our so/Jrs took a semester off so they could play an extra yr or if they all stayed on schedule?

I feel like I've heard that there were at least a few players on both the men's and women's teams who took time off. Maybe it was on one of the Zoom events over the summer?

I'm surprised that Yale is in such a hole.  I thought they had most of their team take time off to extend their eligibility.

Ixne on the olehe, at least until after next weekend.

Yale-Brown prior to MSG and the North Country is a textbook trap.

So, what counts as a shutout this year?

Related: The new overtime and shootout rules are soooooooo dumb. Giveaway point to Crimson-type dandies. Not a fan.

3x3 and shootouts in hockey are like the DH and wildcards in baseball: the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

But if you're going to have that abortion then at least do 3 points.  The little fuckwits got that part right, anyway.

If I am reading the CHN pages correctly, RPI uses weighted winning percentage, so it is better to lose an OT game on the road (.45 * 1.2) than win an OT game at home (.55* .?  That can't be correct can it?

Wouldn't surprise me.::screwy::

Wouldn't surprise me.::screwy::

0.45*1.2 = 0.54 -> road tie loss
0.55*0.8 = 0.44 -> home tie win

This disparity is pretty significant. So by tying at home, you're already "losing".

Also I doubt 99% of the poll voters know this.

They really need to lessen the road/home weights. A road win is worth 1.5x a home win.

Best thing a team could do is stay on the road.

Which is exactly why they are doing it.  It's an enticement for the factory schools to play home and homes with the small fry rather than turning it into the football mockery of inviting Little Sisters of the Poor into your house every year to destroy them.

Forcing the contenders onto the road is good for the sport.

Well, holy shit.  As of 10:45 pm ET, Matt Stienburg leads the nation in points per game (1.700).

The last time a Cornell men's hockey player led the nation in scoring per game this late in the season was probably Lance Nethery in 1978.

For that diving play to get around an SLU defender then sweep the puck into the empty net, he deserves to lead scoring at least for a week.
