I think part of the reason that Cournoyer has such a high save percentage is that the scouting report on him might be that rebound control is a weaker part of his game. I remember from my brief scan of film on him before he came in this year that he seemed a bit prone to rebounds, so maybe that's why teams are taking so many shots and why Yale and Brown end up outshooting us even though we dominate most of the game. Of course, he has been phenomenal this year, and also has been good with rebound control in my eyes, so maybe I'm just off base.

Completely off topic, I found myself completely forgetting about guys like Mosko, Wolfenberg, Donaldson and Murray. Speaks to how good the freshman class is this guys that previously cracked the lineup and have way more experience haven't seen the ice at all this year.

Welp, word seems to be out:

I saw that last evening and figured someone would post it here. Good for a chuckle.


This is my favorite one of those:

Through his five games he is the most consistent player so far.  I am no longer dissecting his play.  As far as I'm concerned he hasn't given up a bad goal the likes of the DiGiulian goal or Walsh's second goal both from Saturday night.  If he can stay away from those types of back breakers we're going to really benefit from this kid.

He's big.  He's agile.  He always seemed to be square to the shooter.  He's handled the puck well.  What's not to like?

Remember when I was so worried at the beginning of the year and was saying I think he should do a full year in the Q before Cornell?

Man, I'm a fuckin idiot. I love this kid so much. Those stretch passes. Fuck, those are some pretty stretch passes. And I don't think I've seen him give up a "bad" goal all year.

Quote from: Jeff Hopkins '82 on November 16, 2025, 08:59:50 PMI also wondered when Casey and the Yale coach came out at center ice to chat whether they were considering switching ends mid-period so that neither attacking team would be overly disadvantaged by the bad ice.
Ooh. That would make sense.

Cmon now. What are you doing? You're not a rookie here anymore.
