Okay do we always suck at the SO? Just so I can be prepared. Hey. Point, I guess. But jesus, we looked like the DOMINANT team out there.

Cornell did not look remotely skilled tonight. They were bigger and stronger in the third but they still couldn't ever juke or pass around Yale pressuring the point. Don't let the shot disparity fool you: Cornell created almost zero high-danger chances. Everything was a shot from the outside + jamming at the goalie's pads. Also several times in the game Cornell had a good rush up the ice and was well set up to hit the trailer but the trailer was on the bench in the middle of a line change. What a ridiculously frustrating game to watch. Last weekend Denver annihilated Yale twice in New Haven with a combined score of 11-1 and then Yale came into Lynah and tied Cornell 2-2. Cornell is not even close to Denver's (or any actual top team's) level right now.

With that said, just like last year's game at Lynah, Yale played for a tie the entire third period. Pretty embarrassing to go into the third and not even try to win but I guess it's a good strategy when you're the much worse team on the road.

No one watches anymore, get used to it.

Either something changes or the program might even fold if this attendance is like this. At least in prior years the ivy league games would sell out. Now it's half full for a game students would all historically come out for.

Furthermore, Horrible tie as well. No idea what that garbage effort was

First you say people complaining about no one watching anymore should get used to it

Then you complain about people not watching anymore

Well that's your classic let down game. Props to Yale, they played well and knew when to hunker down for a tie which I honestly respect. Seems like Schafer is just starting whichever forward line has the most goals in the previous game, a little motivation for them maybe. Anyway, beta brown tomorrow and we're still in a really good spot, just hurts to get only one point in our first ECAC game.

Cornell needs to get healthy. Seems they have too many players in the lineup who aren't threats to score. We miss Fegaras too, seems there's nobody on the blue line besides Robertson who can create anything (not like Robertson was creating anything tonight). Wolfenberg seems to have some offensive talent, wonder if Fegaras could play over Suda when he comes back (highly doubt it though).

Nod nod. Not overly concerned about this one, don't see why so many people were saying it was terrible. We looked like the better team for most of it (well, at least the first and most of the second, can't speak about the third as I couldn't watch it), just didn't shoot, and they got their goals from PPs and played to tie. Whatever. On to the next.

I don't know how good Duluth is this year but NoDak went into their building and scored 7 tonight.
