Watched the cornell game on the excellent feed from Lynah and it never seemed that Yale was in sync. They were dominated by the big red in the first and were lucky to come out of it with only a one goal deficit. There were some flashes of offense in the second and generally the defense played well enough to win on most nights. Even when Yale started to outskate cornell in the third, the Cornell D-Men got in the way of enough pucks to win the game. Lyon and Iles were the two stars of the game, no doubt. Hopefully the semi break will give the team more practice time to get it together. We could also use Anthony Day and Nico Weberg back in the line up.

Are there any Yale fans out there? Just nod if you can hear me.

I am here, too, LT. Everything is going to be just fine. Just need to get everyone healthy !!!

I'm here, LT. Thx for the recap. Now at least they've lost a game I didn't attend, so I know it's not all my fault.

And, so that I'm crystal clear, I am not intimating that Bourbanais was boozing.

Just that the rule is in effect....(Think back man. Get it?)

I'm not about to jump off that diving board.

In order to be SO off the team......if you were a thinking man.....WHO do you think he PO'd ??

The Trainer ?

That's enough.

Go Blue !!!!!

Let it go, nice win by the blue tonight!

Re: Yale Bulldogs Hockey 2013-14: Repeat after me.......CHARACTER IS DESTINY

Yalewhaler is dead on in his comments, particularly as to A1RdRunner's speculation about Clint Bourbonais's situation. He is a great kid, and was not released from the team for academic reasons (smartest kid on the team according to the players) or any unlawful conduct, period! The fresman defendant, O'Keefe, is highly thought of and would have been playing when Killian was out, but had mono. The doctors would not release him to play because of concerns with an enlarged spleen which is a common issue with mono. My understanding is he is now released to play, and we will see more of him as the season progresses.

I did NOT, read it again wisemen, state that it was due to academics or unlawful conduct.
It was due to stupid behavior.
Anyone realize a "no booze" edict is in place this year ??
Almost lost a frosh in August who had to have his stomach pumped at a local ER.
Speculation??
I don't need to stroke myself.
You want answers that Conn or Malafronte can't deliver ?

As an aside: Bourbs was credited with a face-off win tonight at Colgate.
11:45 into the 2nd period.

Explain THAT one. ( I know).

Just pay attention and stop YOUR "speculative" dismissals.

Re: Yale Bulldogs Hockey 2013-14: Repeat after me.......CHARACTER IS DESTINY

Having met Dan O'Keefe once and his parents several times, and with only the nicest things to say about all three, I am assuming (and hoping)
that "defendant" is merely an auto-population glitch and that "defenseman" is what was intended !!!

My bad. It was meant to say defenseman, not "defendant" and I still hate modern technology and auto-correct which I never look to see if what I type has been changed. As an old timer, I miss the typewriter and carbon copies when you read carefully what is sent.
