    Colgate 2026-27

    Tonight, sitting two rows behind the Colgate bench (and one row behind the newlyweds) for the final two periods, I couldn’t help but think of the old expression, ‘death by a thousand cuts.’ As a ‘Gate fan, that is what our 0-6 season to-date feels like. We aren’t getting blown out 6-1 or 8-0...

    Reid Dyck led Colgate out onto the ice for tonight’s pregame warmup. Albin Boija did the same for Maine. Colgate penalty (holding). Killed. Maine penalty (hooking). Killed. Colgate hits the crossbar on a breakaway. Maine penalty (hooking). Killed. Colgate 10, Maine 5, SOG after one...

    GreenCoat… you are right (again)!! They were 13-18-3, which means York, Toronto and Plattsburgh State were all official games in 1992-93. It also means that we lost six, tied one and won one in our first eight games of the season. Makes me feel better as we have a little wiggle room yet tonight...

    Need help from TeacherBill and GreenCoat… Here is 1992-93… https://colgateathletics.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/schedule/1992-93 Tell me the teams that we lost to opening that season, but only the ones that were D-1 and not exhibition games. I assume Toronto and York were exhibitions, but am...

    Well, we haven’t scored on a traditional PowerPlay yet this season. And we didn’t score on a 5-on-3 tonight. Maybe if someone gave us a 5-on-2 opportunity…

    Reid Dyck led Colgate out onto the ice for tonight’s pregame warmup at Alfond Arena in Orono, Maine. Petter Wickstrom Stumer did the same for host Maine. Maine penalty (boarding). 9-3 Maine SOG going in. Killed. Colgate penalty (interference). Killed. Colgate penalty (roughing). Maine PPG...

    UMaine '26-'27: The Bridge On the River Stillwater

    I am sitting in the Alfond Arena parking lot right now. Sadly, I don’t think our chances are very good this weekend… we are 0-4 after being swept at Stonehill and at home by New Hampshire. We played 13 periods in those four games (as one went into OT) and we out-scored our opponents in just two...

    Rainman, you got me looking… In 2001-02, we lost to Nebraska - Omaha, Nebraska - Omaha, Minnesota and Minnesota in our first four games of the season. The losses to Minnesota, on the road, were particularly bad… 8-0 and 9-0.

    I guess GreenCoat is subtly trying to tell me NOT to expect to see Colgate at the Frozen Four in D.C. this April. Dang! I just looked to see when the last time we lost four consecutive games was, thinking it was quite a while ago. I guess I forgot that last season we lost to Maine, RIT, RIT...

    Well, that was a first… I inadvertently left my phone at home and didn’t realize it until I was north of Whitney Point. My positive takeaway from tonight’s loss to New Hampshire at home is actually a positive in all of our opening four losses this season… I don’t think that Colgate has taken a...

    Colgate Zach just reminded me... The Class of 1965 Arena has a new wall of posed team photos of the past men's and women's hockey teams. It is really well done and very classy. I will take some photos tonight; let me know if you want a photo from a particular year. Also, last night, the pep...

    I am home, safe-n-sound (despite five deer sightings). I enjoyed tonight, as odd as it may sound, as Cornell Greg came over and we went to dinner (Rusch’s) and the game. We spent time with former Colgate coaches R. Braden Houston (1965-66 UNH captain) and Don Vaughan. I saw Patty, talked to...

    Reid Dyck led Colgate out onto the ice for tonight’s pre-game warmup. Michael Simpson did the same for New Hampshire. Less than one minute in… UNH 2, Colgate 0, SOG. UNH 1, Colgate 0, score. 2:18 remaining in the period… UNH 7, Colgate 3, SOG. UNH 2, Colgate 0, score. 43.1 seconds remain…...

    UNH 2026-27 Season Let's Go 'Cats!

    Separate subject... I can't remember how well New Hampshire 'travels,' but if you have any fans coming to Colgate in Hamilton, N.Y., this weekend, I have a suggestion: I sit in Section 9, top row 6, near a proud former New Hampshire University hockey player (forward turned defenseman). His name...

    Okay, here we go again (now that I am safely back home in Owego, N.Y., after an all-day drive in hard rain today)... I tell my college hockey friends that, "Colgate appears to have no offense, a poor defense, and Reid Dyck plays well, but he can only do so much." Is that accurate? It sounds...
