[Swampy]

Clarkson scores with 27 seconds left to go up 3-2

And Harvard still sucks!

Very bad outcome. It means Cornell gets Quinnipiac if tonight's results repeat themselves tomorrow.

Doesn't matter.  Gotta face them sometime.

No. We didn't have to face them last season because they lost in the semis.

Yeah I know but cmon this year if you want to completely obliterate all the demons what better way than Mike sending Rand home on a stretcher?

It's not a normal year.  This season is haunted by ghosts, and there are only two endings: either Mike et al. pull off The Miracle to exceed Ned, or we fall short.  So let's hasten unto the day.  Win tomorrow night and CRY HAVOC!

"To exceed Ned"???

Ned went undefeated in his last year at Cornell. Mike's chance to exceed Ned ended last November.

I want to win the ECAC and make the NCAA tournament in Mike's final year, not have Mike's career ended by Rand Pecknold.

As do I.

So let's stab the fucker in the face, as we did with Bill Cleary.

Never lose again.

[upprdeck]

If Cornell wins and no other upsets then we play Quin
If Cornell wins and colg/Clark both lose then we would miss Quin

Dart/Union it doesnt matter who wins

Ned went undefeated in his last year at Cornell. Mike's chance to exceed Ned ended last November.

During Ned, we played 90% of our games against Little Sisters of the Poor.

I love our history, but any future title is worth 100x our past titles.

This is obviously not worth engaging, but

Cornell is probably going to lose to Quinnipiac

That would be just about the saddest ending to Mike's career possible

Winning the ECAC on a miracle run would be just about the happiest ending possible regardless of whether we have to beat Quinnipiac on the way

Ergo, it would be completely nuts to want to play Quinnipiac next round

The saddest ending would have been losing to Yale in a one-game elimination round while Schafer wasn't even on the bench because he took a puck to the head.

Schafer returned, and we didn't lose to Yale.

[imafrshmn]

Attendance for Friday night's ECAC QF games was pretty poor, especially in Hamilton and Potsdam. Feels like the end of an era, and not just for Schafer.

I feel like that's always the case for this round. Spring Break has already been mentioned as one reason. I don't know if it's still true, but I thought the league set ticket prices for this tournament? Always a killer at Clarkson where students got in for free during the regular season, but then had to pay to get into QF games. At Cornell, the QF tickets were sold as an "add on" option that a lot of people wouldn't pay extra for when ordering season tickets in September.

Since when have Colgate or Clarkson had good crowds? Also it's spring break I think. Aside from Cornell, attendance in the ECAC/most of college hockey is embarrassing and has been for a long time.

[upprdeck]

Imagine what the crowd would have been had Cornell not brought so many.

[andyw2100]

Imagine what the crowd would have been had Cornell not brought so many.

I'm guessing Cornell fans made up perhaps 1/4 to 1/3 of the crowd in Hamilton last night. Our band outnumbered their band three or four to one.

[upprdeck]

Yeah it didn't feel like the place was half full, But there were several hundred around the upper ring who never sat.

Other than the Cornell games they only get 800-1000 for most games anyway and how much of that is students.

Will the band do 50/50 today?
