Bye bye Ben

Forgive my ignorance, but to be clear, this means that Ben graduated in three years?  Zach will be back?  I understand Ben was ILR, those would be tough credits to transfer, so he must have graduated.

Ben says in the tweet he is graduating. To my knowledge Zach has given no public indication he is going anywhere. The only other Cornell player in the transfer portal is Howe.

We are very fortunate Andreev is coming back. Of course, only in the Ivy League does one need to go through an opaque approval process from a mysterious governing body to exercise his fourth year of eligibility. Other schools across the country will once again be stocked with players exercising their fifth year of eligibility, no questions asked.

Max is the only player left from his freshman class.

I would also like to include a huge Union logo in my response. Is there a way to do this?

Most hated for me is Dartmouth in a landslide, but I don't know that I'd call them a top three rival.

There's definitely a different between hatred and rivalry.  I can't stand Quinnipiac, but they don't deserve to be anyone's rival.  As a traditionalist, I'd say Cornell's biggest rivals would/should be

1. Harvard
2. BU
3. Clarkson

If we're limiting it to the ECAC, Colgate would probably be #3.

Surely Clarkson's are 1.SLU 2.RPI 3.Cornell?

Does Union offer graduate degrees?

I've got another likely dumb question.  Since Ben was a junior this year who only played 2 years at Cornell doesn't he have 2 years of eligibility which he can play out at fu%^ing Onion?

[upprdeck]

i would think he has 2 yrs left

Does culture beat strategy?

Good for Nate, otherwise.

Michigan had 10 scratches due to illness last night.  Tyler Shea is their third string goalie.  They lost 5-2 to Minnesota.

With a few spectacular exceptions (eg: K.Dryden) college hockey players do not dominate the cream of professional hockey players - as athletes do in most other sports. How come?
