Re: 2019 ECAC Championship Weekend in Lake Placid

Just looking at the weather, gonna be freezing or below for most of the weekend with 1-3" of snow predicted for Friday. Saturday and Sunday look sunny, cold and windy. When I went up a couple of years ago, I did the bobsled run. One of the funnest experiences in my life. I may try skeleton this time around. Reservations highly recommended. https://www.whiteface.com/activities/bobsled-experience

So you don’t see a way Cornell gets in if Brown wins the ECACs? Unless I’m misreading your post.

If the Hockey East, NCHC, and WCHA finish with favorites winning, and Brown beats Harvard in the final, I think ECAC has 5 in. Wouldn't that be something?

Anyone know if the schools get to sell tickets in a certain section, or do you just have to buy through the ECAC and hope you’re not surrounded by people wearing the other team’s colors? Haven’t seen anything on the Brown website yet.

Brown is in Section 16.

PWR has Cornell in even if they lose to Brown, they drop to #14 with AIC and Brown getting #15 and #16, if Brown wins Saturday night also.

However Cornell is bumped in that scenario should a Boston College or Boston University win Hockey East.

BC or BU won't win though.

At Lake Placid you will see all of the ECAC team banners hanging from the rafters along with the years that each school has won an ECAC Tournament championship. I believe there are two teams, which have yet to win.

Brown has never won an ECAC Tournament Championship. I don't believe that Dartmouth has either.

Brown has made it to the finals thought, five times.

Year
1965 - Lost to BC
1976 - Lost to BU
1993 - Lost to Clarkson
2013 - Lost to Union
2015 - Lost to Union ?

Brown has only made it four times, with the most recent appearance coming in 2013. I believe you have all the other years and opponents correct, though.

The banners hanging at Meehan Auditorium celebrate some noteworthy accomplishments, but the most prestigious of them either belong to the women’s team, reflect ancient Final Four appearances (before it was even dubbed “Frozen”), or represent the occasional Ivy championship (of which none are particularly recent; they also are not held in particularly high esteem since there is no official Ivy hockey conference).

It sure would be nice to add a banner celebrating a more concrete and contemporary achievement above the east goal! Going through two Ivy teams would make it even more satisfying.

Harvard beat Colgate in the 2015 ECAC Championship.

ECAC Representation in the NCAA's since 2007 (Hopefully I got it right)

Year - # Teams
2007 - 2 Clarkson, St. Lawrence
2008 - 2 Clarkson, Princeton
2009 - 3 Princeton, Yale, Cornell
2010 - 2 Yale, Cornell
2011 - 3 Yale, Union, RPI
2012 - 2 Union, Cornell
2013 - 3 Qpac, Union, Yale
2014 - 3 Qpac, Union, Colgate

If we land 4 in the tournament, I believe it will be a record since the split with HE and Vermont leaving (2006?).

I don't think that there have been 4 ECAC schools in the tourney since 1984 (BC, BU, Clarkson, RPI), the last year before the NCAA-HEA split

And I don't think there's ever been 4 Eastern Schools in the Frozen Four.
