RPI is the tiebreaker

Thanks

A win would have put us in second in the pairwise.

really seems to me as if out OT-SHG against union was that little extra that this team needed.

these games against colgate this weekend were exactly the kind of games where, prior to union, we ended up on the losing end of a 0-1 or 1-2 game.

Well, with everything in except two CHA games that are unlikely to have much effect and a game in Alaska. we pass BC to land in 4th at the end of the night. Wow.

Of course, next weekend will hurt

On another topic, what's the chance Harvard actually does some damage in the Beanpot this week? They have a definite chance to beat NU (in fact they downright "should")... and they even have a shot at BC or BU.

That and McKee's significantly raised level of play since late 04

 I've been home from the game for a little while. Just finished reading through posts here, and haven't seen this mentioned.

Apparently Pokulok broke his elbow early in the first period. We saw him go off the ice at the first stoppage after he was injured. Between the first and second periods, the woman who sits next to me heard from Dave McKee's father that Pokulok had broken his elbow. I'd love it if this info turns out to be incorrect, but if it is correct this may prove to be a very costly tie.

I don't recall any mention of this during the webcast, but perhaps just missed it.  Costly would be right.  Not what we needed for the stretch and post-season run.

Back to fifth in PWR, probably as a result of some obscure game in Latvia.

CC's loss gives BC that comparison. Pushing us back down to 5th. But, we're currently lined up for the Worcester bracket wit BC the #1 seed. And we'd play Wisconsin in the first round

Colgate is now 10th pairwise after tying us. IF they can stay around there, then this tie tonight may have been the happy compromise between what we want for Cornell and what we want for the ECAC.

Another happy tidbit... North Dakota is 14th, so they'd be out if the season were to end today. Yay!

No.  I sat behind Gleed and his girlfriend and apparently they were a small fry team from Canada, maybe Venice City (something like that).  Props go out to Gleed, he was talking to all the small children that approached him in section K, very cool!  It was mentioned that he could start practicing Monday if cleared!!!!!!  That would be huge with the horrific news about Pokulok.  Wasn't that his dad (Keith) that one the 50/50 drawing.

Re: Canadian Team - So why were they wearing Canadian National jerseys? Or were those not Canadian Nationa Team jerseys?

Re: Gleed - I didn't realise he was injured. I thought he was just benched for now. What was wrong with him?

Re: Pokulok - I hope he'll be okay. And the guy who won the raffle was Pete Pokulok. I think I saw one of the Canadian players identify himself as the winner.

I was looking across the rink from A and thats what I made of them, it could've been something else.

In fact, I'm more and more inclined to believe that it was the Canadian U18 team.

Check out http://www.canadianhockey.ca/e/teams/mens/u18/2004-05/index.html . Those look like the exact same jerseys in the photo of the team on the ice.

Also, I recall seeing No. 11's name over from D. To me it looked like something with about 8 letters starting with "Cog" or "Cag". Check out http://www.canadianhockey.ca/e/teams/mens/u18/2004-05/rosters/can_u18wc.html

if it was the canadian u-18 team, that could be great recruiting for us
