16 of our 19 skaters have attempted at least one shot tonight, and Bancroft is not among them.

Have a bad feeling about this. Bearlover, please come in and bring some negativity

Tying two teams above us in PWR is not a tragedy.  Just feels bad to have let leads slip away.  Oh well... we'll be in Tempe if any if youse are joining us.

ASU is a joke of a program anyway. Would never send my kid to that sorry excuse of "school". Just one big party of degenerates

Sucks, but probably not the worst to have some fire in our belly heading to Tempe.

I'm relatively young here (only started watching cornell hockey since 2014) sorry for my recency bias.

Two ties on neutral ice against higher ranked OOC teams is just fine by me.

It's okay, but we are on the outside looking in. We aren't going to make the NCAAs by treading water. I thought Cornell played decently this weekend overall. To me, that is the good news. But I think we are less likely to make the NCAAs after this weekend than we were prior—we really need to start winning games.

My son-in-law is a graduate of ASU in Computer Science and I'd put him against a randomly chosen Cornell graduate of the same degree.

So, you know, suck it.

We do.  I do come away from this weekend with a good feeling about the rest of the season.  Play well; the rating will come.

I think we're definitely in better shape now than we were. Uscho/chn don't seem interested in updating the pairwise tonight, but our RPI is higher than it was before this weekend. We're 3-0-2 out of conference against a pretty tough out of conference schedule.

If we play well in the rest of the season, we'll be in the hunt for a tournament spot.
