    Common sense says a 19-0-4 regular season record is going to include a Loss sooner rather than later. I expect Andrew Takacs will be in goal tonight. (NOTE: REID DYCK IS IN GOAL FOR 'GATE; ARTHUR SMITH IN GOAL FOR PRINCETON). I hope we score first. And we need to stay out of the penalty box...

    I don’t know my plans yet, but I am leaning towards ‘no.’ Last weekend, I decided to take a run up to RPI on Saturday for an easy victory and we all know how that went. he he he. Results like that take the wind out of my sails sometimes. But, we’ll see, a good showing on Friday at Princeton...

    Tonight's research project... is Colgate taking more penalty minutes per game than its ECAC Hockey opponents? If my math is correct, here are the average penalty minutes per game by ECAC teams for 2025-26... Dartmouth, 6.04 Yale, 7.26 Harvard, 7.50 Quinnipiac, 7.53 RPI, 7.57 Union, 8.80...

    Shabby, I agree with you on the uber-importance of the position. I don’t agree with the word ‘mediocre,’ though. That is too harsh in my opinion. Takacs and Reid are just inconsistent (and what do we really know about Haas and Olson?). Many times they each make absolutely brilliant saves which...

    More stats about our season and our opponents, in-conference and out-of-conference, tonight: NCAA Percentage Index (NPI) rankings for Colgate and its 2025-26 opponents, as of tonight... #1 - Michigan State, #6 - Quinnipiac, #10 - Cornell, #11 - Dartmouth, #23 - Harvard, #25 - Union, #26 -...

    After today, it seems to me that… a) Quinnipiac, Cornell and Dartmouth will get ECAC Hockey tournament first-round byes, b) Harvard and Princeton will be battling for the fourth and final first-round bye, b) Saint Lawrence, Brown and RPI will be traveling in that first round, c) Union and...

    I assume GreenCoat saying the team ‘lacks discipline’ refers to their penalty-taking. We are becoming the kind of team that I really dislike… one that regularly takes more penalties than its opponents. Five-minute major penalties and game misconduct penalties seem to be increasing in...

    Having trouble with message board… but previous play is under review by RPI. Five-minute major (slew-footing?) and game disqualification to Colgate. KILLED. Note: slew foot in hockey is a dangerous, illegal move where a player knocks an opponent’s skates out from behind using their leg or...

    Andrew Takacs led the team out onto the ice for tonight’s pre-game warmup at Houston Field House in Troy, N.Y. Freshman Nate Krawchuk in goal for RPI. RPI gets on the board first, three minutes in. Colgate’s Bobby Metz with the tying goal, from Josh Niedemayer. Colgate penalty...

    Shabby, I got home from Florida just in time to see last night’s puck-drop on ESPN. The two announcers were terribly biased (“I hate to be a homer, but…”), but I didn’t feel the need to mute them. I just kind of enjoyed it (thinking it was a Colgate penalty when, in fact, it was a Union...

    I am shocked. Shocked. Should we send the recording out to the other ten ECAC Hockey schools and find out their 'interpretation of what occurred?' Majority rules? Disregard the rulings by the on-ice officials? It's like Mike Schafer has never left the building. As for tonight... Union...

    It should be pointed out that twice this season, we have had four straight home games (Nov. 14-15, Nov. 21-22; Jan. 16-17, Jan. 23-24). Our 2025-26 schedule hasn’t dictated our NCAA Percentage Index (NPI) number nor our points and standing within ECAC Hockey, however our play during said...

    Obviously we won it in OT. Isiah Norlin from Max Nagle and Easton Wainwright. Another crazy game. 2 goals on 12 SOG against Alexis Cournoyer. Tons of penalties, as expected. Colgate’s Mr. Faceoff had one last night and two tonight… just himself. Antonio Fernandez is scrappy. Reid Dyck got...
