Re: Yale Hockey 2010

PS- it's not second guessing when you've been shouting it for a week

Backman continues to impress and score. 4-2 now

update: now 4-3 on pp goal. Maybe we should just perma-pull our goalie and go with 6 skaters as our game plan

WOW

4-4. Hat trick for Backman? Radio announcer not sure who scored......apparently it wasn't

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

What did I tell you. The goalie is irrelevant. The only question is when the offense is going to heat up. congrats Yale on its first ever back-to-back Cleary Cups

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

Guess you are right
who needs a goalie with anything better than an 80% save avg.
7-4 Yale.....WOW

I love this Team.
Does anyone know How close Backman is to Hamilton's record now?

How many does he have, 3 or 4? He needed 5 to tie him I think. I would still have to give Hamilton the slight edge as greatest Bulldog ever though. But Class of 2010 is definitely the best class ever.

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

No doubt Hamilton is the greatest Bulldog ever. With the strength of this class I dont even know is the best player from this class.

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

I did not get to watch the game as my wife wanted to see a movie tonight. Kind of glad that i did not have to sit through two periods of angst. Those were my dues to go to QU tomorrow night. BTW shutter Island is one of the weirdest movies in my recent memory.

Union Bob, hope you guys knock off Cornell in the playoffs.


Way to go Yale!!!!

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

Backman has 77 career goals. Hamilton finished with 80 goals. Hamilton is second on all-time Yale list quite far behind the leader.

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

It is still possible for Cornell to share the cup. Tiebreakers only apply to seedings. Yale has #1 seed, and yet still could be co-champs with Cornell.

Re: Yale Hockey 2010

You are correct sir, this article from the ECAC website in 2006 proves your point, each school gets to share the cleary Cup, After Yale beating QU your point will be moot. And no matter what we are still number one seed due to the sweep of Cornell this year.

Dartmouth and Colgate tied for the regular season title, claiming a share of the William J. Cleary Cup, however the Big Green won the tiebreakers and enter the playoffs as the No. 1 seed. The Raiders have the No. 2 spot, followed by Cornell at No. 3 and Harvard at No. 4. The top four seeds receive byes for the first round.
