Still missing confirmation for Frozen Apple (Maine) as well as Dec 4/5 weekend (BU/Merrimack iirc). At 7 OOC games.

In favor of there being a 2026 Frozen Apple (ie even-year) MSG game: There is nothing else scheduled at MSG for Thanksgiving Saturday (if you see the Rockettes, unclick all the MSG properties until you only have the MSG main arena). Google says the Cornell-Quinnipiac 3-3 tie drew 16,593, the largest attendence for 2024-25 college hockey.

That season's national championship game beat that by a few hundred (https://www.collegehockeynews.com/box/final/20250412/wmu/bu_/) but it's still an impressive number.

Deeply impressive for a regular season game.

In general, I just want more Cornell hockey.

The Rangers are pretty likely to have an afternoon game that day once the NHL schedule comes out.

True but that's usually the case.  Ranger game in the afternoon, Cornell game at night.  Of course it's happening.

Yup, that's what I meant.

I would think UMass will have a return visit to Lynah but maybe not this coming season since Cornell had two OOC home series last season and so I'd think they would go on the road for another OOC series to a team other than Omaha.

Trying to think of how many times a Home & Home stretches beyond back to back years to H&H over three years and, if ever, over 4 years. There has to be an agreement at least between coaches / athletic directors that the teams play at both schools.

So am confused, are there any more OOC games to be announced yet for this season
besides SHU & BU/Merrimack at Lynah, Maine at MSG and the two at Omaha or not?

Anyways, #roadtoDC starts now! LGR

I'm still waiting on BU, Merrimack, and Maine confirmation.

I don't think there are any more OOC games this year - there isn't a gap on the schedule for 'em. Unless we play one game the week before SHU?

I can confirm from a reliable UMaine hockey source that they will play in the Frozen Apple this year.  Although I do not have a date I assume the traditional...

If you figure 2 exhibition games in October before the 2 against Sacred Heart, then add in the pair against Merrimack and BU, plus the 11 on the schedule already, that's 17 home games.  which is the usual not including possible quarterfinal hosting.  So add in Maine, the pair at Omaha and that probably rounds it out.

BU at Lynah Dec 4 confirmed.
