Quote from: Scersk '97The nod to the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament is such a wonderful insider joke. Awful, awful tournament. But how else would I have seen Gallagher scraping up puke?

I declare him "one of us," by which I mean ECAC lovers of "remember that obscure player or moment" conversations.
What the fuck? Please explain...

Once upon a time, there was an awful hockey tournament held at the War Memorial in Syracuse called the Syracuse Invitational Tournament. Close, but awful. ECAC insiders called it the Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament. The kind of place where their PA system fails, so the Cornell fans have to lead others in singing the national anthems a cappella.

We were up watching us play Providence one year, and in, I think, the beginning of the first overtime, the Providence goalie just pulled up his helmet and yakked all over the place. A hated ECAC ref of the day, Gallagher, had to scrape it up so the game could go on. We got a picture; someone has it somewhere. I think the goalie stayed in!

Noted offensive talent David Adler won it on an fluky deflected floater in the second overtime. I kind of felt bad for the Providence kid, because he had left it all on the ice.

Just checked the box on Trotsky's site. This all happened, but it was the third overtime. The Colgate play-by-play guy would've gotten that right the first time.

Quote from: SnowballThat was so dumb of Colgate to shove Psenicka right in front of the referee.

I might have taught my seven-year-old the "Bite me, Harder" cheer when he started jawing about that.

There was 100% an 'F' at the beginning of the first word of this. Harder - great player, great guy - but still the funniest expletive-included chant I ever heard.

I remember listening to this game on the radio, and the reason I remember it was that shortly after this happened, the Cornell announcer (I don't remember who it was, although this sounds like something Grady would have come up with) said, "So what's Cornell's strategy now, go to the net?"

Snowball

Tremendous game!!

But wait: now I have to root for Harvard so we can get revenge on Dartmouth?

We've been playing some real Schafer ball over the past few games and I love to see it. I personally don't care who we get to start off next week because it's gonna be someone that we haven't beaten yet this year and we'll probably get the other one in the finals anyway. Just keep winning, I like our odds any time we get to placid.

In typical Syracuse Hockey Invitational Tournament organization, they played one five-minute OT (this was back when all OT was 5x5), then resurfaced the ice and started playing 20-minute OTs.  According to my notes, the puking was during the first, short OT, and the goalie played for the rest of that period entire 20-minute second OT, and then the third until we scored.  And he also played the consolation game the next day.  I feel sorry for the backup.
