Quote from: Weder on January 02, 2026, 09:14:43 AMRory Guilday named to the U.S. Olympic team -- I believe the first Cornellian to play for either U.S. team in the Olympics?

Canadian women's team will be announced later this month.

Guilday played in the Rivalry Series, so it's not that surprising, but still great news.

Based on Canada's roster in the Rivalry Series I'd expect Zandee-Hart, Bourbonnais, and O'Neill should be on the olympic roster.  Maybe Jenner.

THN projects Jenner and O'Neill on the roster.

Interesting.  Bourbonnais not even in the discussion.

We were at the Sirens-Victoire game earlier today and Bourbonnais was really not that noticeable on the ice. She does apparently have 4 points over her last 3 games though.

O'Neill, on the other hand, was a total spitfire out there and in addition to scoring a nice goal after a bad giveway by the Montreal goalie, seemed to dominate nearly all of the faceoffs she took.

It was also fun to see a former nemesis (Kaltounkova from Colgate) playing alongside Cornell alums for the Sirens. She has a wicked one-timer that she loves to fire away with from the faceoff dot, Ovechkin-style, and she still plays with a bit of that nasty edge that earned her more than a few game misconducts at 'Gate.

Couple friends and I are running a PWHL fantasy league off Google Sheets (why yes, we ARE nerds). I just picked up Bourbonnais off waivers... pretty sure she had a good game in the Casey O'Brien hat trick game, but hasn't been doing a ton outside that.

Guilday is carrying my team to any sort of relevance. Still 0-3 so far XD.

Hmm.

Parris Duffus and Doug McKee played for the US in the Worlds.  Jean-Marc Pelletier, Andy Iles, and Cole Bardreau played for the US in the WJC.  Ryan Walsh played for the US in the Spengler Cup.  But... yeah.

Suda has been on a nice run with Worcester in the ECHL.  Fifteen points in his last fourteen games.  He even had a one day recall to Bridgeport when they played in Utica but he was a scratch

Love to see that.  Suda was more valuable than we knew.

He was a fantastic defensive defenseman but when he scored a goal I assumed he was aiming at something else since his shots usually didn't requires saves

Dalton Bancroft has 1 assist and 0 goals through 21 AHL games. Anybody considering departing Cornell for the pros prior to graduation really needs to take a look at the track record of players who have done so (Angello, Ferlin, etc.). So few make it to a full-time NHLer, and the few who do surely could have just as well made it after their senior year.
