    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Barnburner at Bright Landry today. For the most part, SLU carried the play and had the better chances particularly in the third period. But after Megdanis tied it with seven minutes to go (great wrist shot to the far corner), Harvard started to press the Saints and got their forecheck going (it...

    ECAC 2025-26

    I think it actually hit one of the players in front of Rheaume, then hits off her helmet, the crossbar and then she reaches around her back - the save of the year, men or women. Unbelievable.

    2026 Winter Olympics

    I'm sure Caroline Harvey is a deserving MVP but I don't see how Aerin Frankel doesn't get the hardware. She kept the US in this game (that save on Fillier was unbelievable) giving Knight the opportunity to tie it and Keller to win it. No matter. The girls are golden once again.

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    A lost weekend at Brown and Yale although after seeing Brown in person yesterday playing their hearts out for their coach, I can understand. And Yale is always tough at Ingalls. That will never change. We're one point in front of Princeton for home ice in the quarters pending the second...

    Union College hockey 2025-26 thread

    I didn't know the history of Union so thanks for that recap. I can only go on the game I saw at Bright last month. It seems like your team is good but not great in terms of A level talent. We have the same problem at Harvard. We used to be able to recruit blue chip talent blindfolded. Now it's...

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Congrats to the Lady Crimson on their first home playoff game in four years! By beating Union and with help from Colgate, the Crimson secured 8th place. Nice to finish off the season with a W in regulation - now let's advance for the first time in like forever and get another shot at Princeton...

    ECAC 2025-26

    I can't believe I'm actually rooting for a Cornell win this weekend but Harvard needs help. We should be able to take care of business (fingers crossed) against Union and RPI. Would be great if Cornell and Colgate swept SLU making it easier for Harvard to only need one win.

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Great post. Haven't stopped laughing. True that about passing up to the forwards. They just need to make one exit pass to get it to center ice and then let the forwards carry it in via the pass or solo. Would rather see a better system developed to force the other team off their D structure...

    Maybe NESN+?

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Okay, time for me to swallow a big helping of humble pie. With three consecutive wins over Top Ten opponents, including today's thriller against Princeton, the Crimson are within striking distance of a home playoff date in two weeks. A ton of credit to the players to go to Lynah and beat the Big...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    No worries, Crim. You make an interesting point about Teddy. He's been behind the bench for 21 years, and I'm wondering if it's time for him to move on. Even Schaefer knew when it was time to call it quits (although I believe health issues played a part). It does seem like he has checked out...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    We have a losing record against winning teams this year, and as you point out, it's not even close. Except for maybe the second Michigan game after Thanksgiving and the season opener against UConn. Other than that, it's business as usual, which means, as you say, they lose and lose big. Is there...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    I don't know what possessed me to go out in this weather for tonight's game. Maybe I just wanted to torture myself. And for the better part of two periods, I was beside myself for going to Bright Landry. Then Sean Keohane tied the game with a goal-mouth scramble goal, and everything seemed to...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    Unlike Cornell teams in the past, this edition has some skill and players who can skate. The Crimson, as you say, lack skill up front and are soft on D. A bad combination. Then again, look at what Colgate did to Dartmouth last night. Shocker.

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    Except for five minutes late in the second period, the Crimson pretty much had control of this game from the drop of the puck. Colgate had major problems in their own end and couldn't generate any sustained offense until late in the second period. Harvard contributed to that stretch by not...

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Last night's game against the Saints felt like a loss. And I'm not referring to the shootout. Harvard allowed SLU to hang around much too long, and all it took was one shot to even the game. Mind you, it was a great shot - looked like Tuffy thought it was going to hit her in the mask, so she...

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    I thought I had seen it all in the Beanpot tournament. Then comes Monday night and a historic end with a penalty shot goal. I didn't realize that McSweeney had a choice: the penalty shot or a two-minute power play. She had tremendous confidence in choosing the former, and she cashed in. Good for...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    I thought the Crimson did a great job defensively against Union. It might have been their best defensive effort of the season. And the Ben McDonald goal was filthy - the passing to set up the goal from Stefanik to Lane to MacDonald was a thing of beauty. Keep the line together. They seem to be...

    Harvard 2025-26: Year Three

    Good point about the coffee. No Dunkin, no go. I'm staying home to watch on NESN in part because Angela Ruggiero will be doing color commentary for the game. She's also headed to Italy to do women's hockey for NBC. We owe BU for the Belfast tourney. Although it would have been great to win in...

    Harvard Hockey 2025-'26: Crimson Ascending

    A nice six-point weekend. Last night's game was a bit chippy, with Will Hughes mixing it up several times with Clarkson D. I thought Harvard played well in the first two periods, then let down in the third. The Knights have some talented freshmen (7 players from the Quebec and Ontario Juniors)...
