The weekend went pretty much as expected, although that shorthanded goal by Cornell was such a killer. If we tie the game there, who knows what happens in OT?
The Saturday game was bizarre. We jump out to a three-goal lead, let Colgate tie it, then pump three more goals past their goalie before...
I had to pause and gather my thoughts about the Stonehill game until some time had passed. Mainly because after dominating the first period and going up 4-0 early in the second, Harvard decided to take a nap for the rest of the game. Getting outshot 19-4 in your own building by a non-conference...
I'm not thrilled about playing Cornell this early in the season. Fortunately, we have another tune-up game against Stonehill tomorrow night at Bright Landry.
Thought it was high time to create a new season thread. Good start to the season with the tie at UConn, especially considering what they did to us last year at Bright Landry. Congrats to Richard Gallant on his first collegiate goal. Hope it is a harbinger of many more to come!
Except that Dartmouth went into Cheel and shut out Clarkson 3-0. Not sure anyone saw that coming. I understand what you're saying about the team being young and having to take it one step at a time, but there comes a point where you have to stop leaning on that excuse and start winning these...
Harvard came back to Earth tonight. Despite the close score, the game was as one-sided as in previous seasons. Harvard simply can't defend in its own end, and that leaves Tuffy or whoever is in goal to brick the net. Which Tuffy did to the best of her abilities, but she should sue for...
Great start to the season with back-to-back wins for the first time in several years. Especially today's win over UNH at the Whit. I noticed two additions to the Harvard roster: Alexandra Paulson, a defenseman from Minnesota, and Carla McSweeney, who scored the winning goal today from Chicago...
Thomas Kaine hit the nail on the head. Without a strong donor base, you can't get the rink you desire, on or off campus. From what I understand, this building is considered multi-use, i.e., concerts, business conferences, and other events. Other college rinks are strictly for use by the college...
Harvard has two issues at the moment: the ongoing battle with Trump and the leftover mess from the Stone debacle. Neither is going away anytime soon, although it will eventually be easier to put the Stone situation in the rear view mirror.
Regarding recruiting, you are correct that the best...
A good friend of mine who works for Dartmouth and attended the school says that the renovations to Thompson are underway, with an emphasis on making the rink more attractive to female players. Thompson is still one of the premier facilities in the conference. Some of the best ice you'll ever...
Wondering if anyone else noticed this odd roster configuration. All of Harvard's D are right shots. There are no left-shot Ds. This has to be a first. Didn't Bellamy and Co. consider that in their recruiting efforts? Seems bizarre.
Hmm. I might suggest some alternatives to the forward lines. 1st line has to be Thompson - Severo - Miller. They were together last year and did some serious damage towards the end of the season. 2nd line: Gallant - Fine - McDonough, 3rd line: Stefanek - Will Hughes - Justin Solovey, 4th line...
Ben Merrill's move to BU reminds me of Dave Pegula. Pegula was one of the star recruits from the class of '91 that included Ted Donato, Mike Vukonich, and Pete Ciavaglia. He attended Belmont Hill, which at the time was a feeder to the Harvard program (the Fuscos come to mind). Sometime over the...
What's strange is that we never used to have an issue recruiting north of the border. I realize the USHL has taken over attracting blue chip talent. But now that we can go after players from the Q, why not go for it? If we're going to play a D-1 schedule that includes HE and other out of...
Xavier V is headed to Cornell, so I doubt NIL had anything to do with it. Merrill might be another story, but we know BC and BU poach those recruits that initially choose Harvard when they want to restock. And yes, money may be a factor there. You can add Thatcher Bernstein to the list as he...
The only Harvard player left in the Stanley Cup playoffs is Colin Blackwell '16 playing for the Dallas Stars. Jack Drury skated for Colorado until they were eliminated by the Stars and Mitchell Gibson got called up to back up Logan Thompson while Washington was still in it against Carolina.
About ten minutes after Trump announced the directive that Harvard international students must transfer or lose their visas, a good friend of mine from Dartmouth texted me and he had the same question as Robert Earle posed about the hockey team. Both the men and women have very few Canadians on...
Damn, Thirdtime, you beat me to it! I was about to post the incoming recruits page from GoCrimson. Oh well...
It looks like a good class - I was hoping for a couple of more forwards with blue chip potential. There's still a lot of work to be done and I'm not yet convinced that Bellamy is the...
