The guy with like, zero experience?

Zero coaching, it appears, but loads of hockey experience. He's a Yale alum. Idk seems good enough to fall upwards.

After the scathing assessment of the University's Athletic Director and general atmosphere, I'm not sure who would want to take that job. Kieth Allain really tossed a flaming turd as he walked out the door.
Maybe if you think you got a decent chance of success within a few years and you think you'll outlast that AD.
Is next year here yet?

Anyone have any info on the schedule for next year? Will it just be the return trips from all the series this year? And any guesses for MSG? Will we use the extra Ivy game this year?

I've heard a few rumblings of some cool opponents coming to Lynah this year, if that helps :)

On a related topic: do we know if Casey is expected to be as much of an adherent to nonconference game reciprocity as Schafer tried to be (at least with the major conferences; AHA need not apply)?  If so, could we possibly expect to see some Cornell games in Alaska in the near future?

Do they still give you two bonus games for playing in Alaska?

I'm sworn to secrecy, sadly, but I can say that, if my sources (I've heard this from multiple places) are correct, one of the teams that should be playing at Lynah next year will make me very happy ;)

NCHC released its entire conference schedule yesterday and at least a few teams posted full scheduled (north Dakota and Duluth at least). Didn't see anything of note for Cornell for what it's worth.  That felt pretty early to release entire schedules but not complaining.

Could it be the long-discussed BU-Cornell campus game in a non-RHH year??  ;D

A few weeks ago it was claimed that early departures are up, and that players like Hoyt Stanley leaving early is the norm. I'm not sure this is true. On his podcast this week, Brad Schlossman said early departures are down this season. Anecdotally, I'm seeing a lot of posts like this one:

I am skeptical that it you looked at early departures on the aggregate, the number is higher than 5 or 10 years ago.

Didn't Isaac Howard make a big deal about returning to MSU last year before he signed over the summer? Feels early to draw any conclusions.

I think in the new NIL era, there are more incentives not to leave early at many schools. (If you're getting full scholarship + some NIL cash, it feels like it would pay off to stay in college as opposed to going AHL/ECHL pro. But idk those numbers.) Gotta wait out the trend line, though.
