I was listening for Davy in 3 after the 10th goal, and it didn't sound like it.  Has the band forgotten about that (no lacrosse since the current seniors were freshmen), or was it just too hard to hear on the broadcast?

Same. It didn't happen. Not complaining. I'll be happy with whatever they play if we score 10+.
I'll add that Arthur was on his game with some nice vocal change in announcing that expressed the specialness as the score got larger and with the Andreev hatty.

I think they also neglected the 8-goal cheer. (Though I remember that cheer ending with "gee, that sucks" or something like that.

Don't recall bringing up Weder...though I did mention that the students were chanting "We want Miller" (or so I perceived with my 30+ year broadcast-impaired hearing) for RPI back-up Brett Miller after the score was well out of hand. Though like my hearing, my memory could be going as well and I might have said "Weder".

they were saying "We want Miller"

Sucks to be trailing Harvard by 2 and Sucks that a shootout gives them that extra point.

"It's the system."

The students are coming through quite well on the broadcasts—surprisingly well, considering the masks and such. Nothing better for us folks listening in than to hear a loud, engaged student section taking up the background of the audio. And this next weekend, with the football team back in town, section A should be at full strength.

Tim Vanini's side of the audio can get strangely quiet, occasionally. Don't know if it's a mixing issue or if he perhaps leans back from his mic every once in while.

Really, everything is fantastic, including the interplay between play-by-play and color that already sounds like it's been going on for years. Although my handle has my later graduation year on it, my townie-era fandom goes back to Tim's freshman year. (Saw Nieuwendyk and Schafer play in fall '85—don't really remember it.) He was and is a crowd favorite.

Historical digressions are to be encouraged! (For example, the current #4 is really putting me in mind of Chris Norton.)

I agree with your assessment. I think the students were terrific this weekend; they certainly had a lot to cheer about. And Grady and Vannini have a nice rapport, especially considering Vannini was a late addition to the broadcast team.

If you had told me in 2005 that we would have every Cornell hockey game streaming via ESPN on the internet, with Grady doing the play-by-play for the games at Lynah, you would have had to get out the smelling salts to revive me before getting to the part about TimV doing color.  We really have a sweet broadcasting setup right now.

[upprdeck]

getting game streams for $5-6 a month also makes you wonder if it has put a small hit on attendance. pick a few games to go to and watch all the rest for like $25, how many with ditch the season tickets for that?

[Weder]

Just noticed that after the dust settled, Andreev was credited with a six-point game.

[upprdeck]

very confused by the stats. rego says 2/1  but total says 2. andreev says 4/2 but total says 5, zach says 1/1 but total says 1. stienburg says 1/3 but total says 5?

overall cornell says 11 goals 17 assists for 30 pts?  RPI says 3 goals 6 assists 26 pts?

Somebody had mentioned in another thread that the whole stat keeping system for college hockey was in disarray. Meanwhile every website I check for the ECAC standings either crashes or shows something completely different than the previous. C'est La Vie

Don't recall bringing up Weder...

You didn't bring up Weder himself but I thought you brought up the Weder QF series in 1996 (when we scored 8 goals twice.) I've been corrected that you brought up a previous Colgate QF series, 1991, where we scored 10 and 8 (and that Vanini played in, when I was still in college).

Total refers to shots on goal, not points. I'm not sure why the NCAA boxes do that, but it's been that way for as long as I can remember.

I was surprised not to hear a simple cheer that was common in the sixties: "One, Two, Three, ..., ... We want more!!!"

Maybe my aged hearing didn't pick this up from the broadcast, or maybe the cheer is too simplistic for today's sophisticated students. But I was still surprised not to hear it.

I heard that cheer against RPI

well then I guess that makes some sense of the numbers.  Not so much the lack of clarity of the display.
