Limps? They are on life support. This season now ends on the road for certain but we have played no worse on the road than at home (not saying much)Take the shortest distance to the puck and arrive in ill humor

Re: RPI & Union @ Colgate & Cornell (2/24, 2/25)
It takes something of a leap of faith to presume that RPI will be playing longer than Dr. D's prognosis of two weeks.
But, assuming that they somehow manage to survive the first round of the playoffs, I would expect that they would then move on to play the first seed in the second round.
Right now, that would be Union, which holds a two-point lead over Cornell. But those two teams will play this weekend.
If Union and Cornell finish the season tied in points, which one would be considered to be the first seed in the playoffs?

Depends why they end up tied. If Cornell to beats Union Friday and then they both have the same result on Saturday, Cornell would win based on the first tiebreaker (H2H) because they tied the first meeting. If Cornell/Union tie on Friday and then Cornell wins and Union loses on Saturday, I'm pretty sure that Union would have the tiebreaker on Cornell - Cornell has not done that well against the top 4, highlighted by the sweep by Colgate.If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

Maybe with the thought of "nothing to lose" might liberate the troops and send them on a playoff run.....
Furthermore, maybe you'll meet either us or Cornell in the ECAC's and play the role of spoiler.......
As many folks on the RPI thread have mentioned before, the "Union" rule still has you guys in the thick of it.....
Let the team show to you they are done.....
Good luck next week...

Which is meaningless, since we're going to get bent over this weekend. Bring on the offseason.Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.
