FINE I'LL START THE GAME THREAD COLGATE QF GAME 1

I don't know if I could explain it but I love how Sullivan Mack plays.

Scoreless, five minutes in.

So, for the first time all season, there is the possibility of three games in three days.  Assuming same rules apply to men and women, why do they play overtime in games 1 and 2?
Wouldn't it make sense to be able to win the series by going 1-0-1?  I know that this means a team would be pulling its goalie in a tied game 2 if they lost game 1, but isn't that preferable to making them play what could theoretically be three very long games in three days?

Now 10 minutes in.  Cornell playing physical.

No.

Kent Mandeville in the pressbox.  He's aged well.

we play weird ot rules all season to stress the players less and the when the have a chance at 3 games no one cares anymore. almost like the NFL who has no idea how to do OT.. MLB fixed  theirs this year at least

Are there any rules about whether you can just add a coach in the middle of the game?

[scoop85]

I think we're playing a much better 2nd period, but Colgate scored on their only real chance and Benson has been very good.

[Trotsky]

No success yet but we are playing a very good period.

[mike1960]

Very exciting close to the second.

[Trotsky]

Cormell 20 shots in the second and I swear 10 of them were A+ chances.

Lynah looks like it's rockin'!
