This is my doing.  My only excuse is I was uncritically passing on FAKE NEWS from Jason.  :P

For those who were there, what did you get from the game that you trust, given our opponent was more tired than Bonnie Blue at the Indy 500?

That Cornell appears humongous.  That I don't know how they'll decide who plays out of this group.  That there was a willingness to shoot first in many situations.  That radio music over the PA is here to stay.

Quote from: Give My Regards on October 17, 2025, 10:39:01 PMNot that it matters that much in an exhibition, but Katz did not play tonight.  Keopple played into the second, with Cournoyer taking over for him.

Whoops...not sure how I blew that, but somehow Koepple at the start of the 2nd looked "different" to me. You're clearly right, especially now that I see Koepple's jersey number in some photos I took at the start of the 2nd.

Speaking of jersey numbers, the font seems different this year. Specifically, the "3" is a little weird.

They switched to a new manufacturer: CCM, I believe.

There's also some faux laces on the front of both the men's and women's jerseys this year. (And I think the nameplates/numbers are the same font as what the women started using last season?)

On TV the back numbers and name plates looked a little shiny, but the proportions seemed better than last season.
We still have among the best, and most static, uniforms. I'm a sucker for a 3rd though.

There was a new voice reading the in arena promos for this game.  Arthur just stuck to the on ice announcements.  If this is a permanent change I'll miss Arthur's cowboy accent for the hat giveaway the most.

Quote from: stereax on October 17, 2025, 09:37:46 PMHow are we looking, btw? (Not in Ithaca this weekend. Fun colonoscopy during fall break.)

The worst part is that prep drink.  That is truly vile, and I have had banana liqueur.

I'm pretty sure the worst part is what happens shortly after the prep drink.

Given the median age of posters on here, there are likely a lot of colonoscopy experiences to compare.
