it's all ball bearings nowadays

Yeah, but I mean the very end, when he actually died. That was extremely sudden.

It's our fault that Dartmouth is positive.

As the resident guy who hates Dartmouth more than Harvard, this one hurts.

In a somewhat contrary vein,  I predict Cashman will have the Green in the top four next year and will enjoy success in Hanover until the dopes at PSU realize Gadowsky is fraud. Cashman will enjoy a chance to make Penn State a significantly BiG hockey program.

[Iceberg]

I said in another thread that I thought Dartmouth would be in contention for home ice in the first round but I never thought they'd actually sniff a bye. If it weren't for Harder's work at Colgate, Cashman would have a good case for ECAC coach of the year.

2 ties in derp points, for 9th (Princeton and Yale at 25) and 11th (Brown and RPI at 21).   Not sure if I can trust the tie breakers on the sites, yet.

[Scersk '97]

Princeton over Yale and RPI over Brown, both by head-to-head. We get SLU if chalk prevails.

[Trotsky]

I believe Brown beat Harvard in the shoot out, 2-0 in 3 rounds.

Yes, BRUNO ESCAPES THE CELLAR!

[Trotsky]

To all who think Schafer has lost his edge, Cornell has finished the last 7 seasons at least 6 games over .500 in the ECAC.  Our only prior streak of at least that length ended in 1975.

[Trotsky]

RPI finished dead last in the ECAC for the first time since 1967.

[chimpfood]

If one of the 5,6 or 7 seeds are upset we would play harvard which would be both exciting and scary as they are playing pretty well right now and got the better of us earlier this year.

[Trotsky]

I think I did this right.

RPI finished dead last in the ECAC for the first time since 1967.

RPI was tied with DC that season. It was the previous year that the Engineers were last alone. RPI did not play DC in 66-67, and I don't know if there were tie breakers. There were none needed since who made the playoffs was decided in a smoke-filled room.

If one of the 5,6 or 7 seeds are upset we would play harvard which would be both exciting and scary as they are playing pretty well right now and got the better of us earlier this year.

If there's any team I could see being upset in one game, it would be Harvard. IMO Brown would be the best match-up of all. They haven't looked good against Cornell in either game this season.
