ECAC First Round

[JasonN95]

Possibly a Sunday afternoon game?

[upprdeck]

the ECAC makes the schedule. They can do what they want.

Cornell needs to provide people to work the games as well.

A ton of stress on the support staff to deal with 4 games and Lax on Sat as well

Possibly a Sunday afternoon game?

I think Thursday is more likely than Sunday from a competitive fairness perspective as winning team needs to travel for qf a few days later.

Women championship at 3 and men at 7 (or one hour after women) Saturday is my guess. And ecac just crosses all fingers that neither game needs ot. I assume there is sufficient locker room space for that to work.

And men's basketball at 2pm.

Parking will be interesting.  Weather will probably keep the Lax crowd down again.  

They should be promoting the hockey with the BB crowd to get them next door for the Women's game when it's over.

Website says the game is Friday , time TBD

Oh. Good to know. I assumed Saturday.

 It feels more likely that website is wrong than that the ecac plans an unlimited overtime triple header on Friday.

UNLIMITED OVERTIME TRIPLE HEADER LET'S GOOOOO

If they make us sit through all that, am I legally allowed to spend the night in the pews of the rink?

Could be fun.  Bring a blanket and a couple of pillows.

Slumber party, and get up in time for the women's championship on Saturday... I like that idea.

[billhoward]

Make more sense for the women to play the two semifinal games Friday, no men's game Friday, leaving the women's championship game Saturday at two or 3 PM and the men's single play-in game Saturday at 7. Unless the Cornell coaching staff sees some slight advantage in the visiting men's team having to bus in on Thursday. and then having Saturday off and start prepping for the next weekend, a day earlier.

Reminds me of when we'd camp out by Teagle, and later overnight in Barton Hall, to buy season hockey tickets.

We camped overnight in Lynah at least once (1982?)

Yeah but camping outside Teagle overnight brought out the true fans.;-)

Plenty of us here have done that more than once. (To be able to buy the most desirable season tickets.)

Remember sleeping night indoors for season tickets for '03,

years and now we can't even always sell out Lynah smh...
