Time to beat Q tonight! Looking forward to this one after last year's exciting match-ups
Cornell '24

GO BIG RED

Looking at last night's box score, it appears Colgate was up 2-0 and then, about halfway through the second period, Colgate began taking a string of penalties for the next 20 minutes, including a 5-minute major for hitting from behind (Q scored during the major), a holding and hooking penalty within 23 seconds of each other (Q scored on the 5x3), and a slashing call midway through the third (Q scored during the penalty), after which the penalized player, while skating back to the bench following the Q goal, took a game misconduct for "abuse of officials."

In sum, Q won 3-2, with all its goals coming on the PP, including a 5x3 and 5-minute major goal.

But remember: Colgate beat us at the end of last season. Don't count on a transitive law, even if you believe in it.

5 of Q's top 10 scorers are graduate students. Cornell
isn't even allowed to have graduate students on its team. An extra year of COVID eligibility coupled with the Ivies' ban on graduate students is putting Cornell and the Ivies at a big disadvantage. (And still three more years of this crap.)

Raise a glass for Aaron Trotter today.  The freshman goalie for St. Thomas held his team in it against Mankato for two periods last night, then in the third Mankato scored 7 times on just 13 shots.

So, quite likely the most demanding game of the RS.  I just hope they play well, hang around, and take advantages of the opportunities they create or are given.  Quinnipiac is very good, but they are not unbeatable.

Per Q announcers, Psenicka is from "Chechnya."

Shots after 1 period.  Quinnipiac 18 Cornell 0.  Not a typo.

Q up 1-0.

Czechia, like it says here.

Yes, Arthur, I know.  That is not what the announcer said.

The Q announcer just mentioned a guy from the Danbury Trashers.  There's a great documentary about them.  They were run by a small town mobster.

I don't know what these officials are doing but Seger is being tossed for losing his balance at the wrong time. That board wasn't even nearly as violent as the one at Princeton last night

Edit: Technically a board but they called it "interference" last night. Either way, a bad call for making it a major instead of a minor

Trotsky

Seger gets an early shower, yikes.  Not what we needed.

Cornell PP looks very hesitant, anemic.

At least Shane looks to be legit. Rest of the team pretty outmatched against the fifth year seniors.
