Colgate 2019-2020

[Reddington]

Colgate puts 3 out of 5 skaters on the ECAC all rookie team. Smigliani and Serdachny at forward. Bard at Def. Smigliani nominated for Rookie of the Year. Pretty good result for NeutralZone's top rated recruiting class. It would be really interesting to see someone compare the last few years of NeutralZone's rankings with how recruiting classes and individual players actually did to see how accurate they are.

I had to go back and look at the stats because Bard was surprising to me, but not after looking at her stats.

Bumping this up to break up the monotony of the Minnesota and UW topics !

Colgate is looking very strong. Have taken 2 out of 3 from Clarkson this week and really dominated all three games. The one game Clarkson won - Colgate outshot them 38-19. Colgate freshman Kalty Kaltounkova looks like a star so far. She has 6 points in 5 games. Colgate hasn't even gotten their leading scorers from last year rolling yet. Colgate returned 100% of their scoring from last year and they will all be back next year as well.

Colgate certainly has impressed me. Definitely are the better team so far. Other forward I was impressed with is Noemi Neubauerová.

Fargo has a gift for spotting talent and then closing the deal on recruiting. I think after the current contract is up, he will have his pick of jobs....of course he may just stay at Colgate.

Let's not even go there. As a proud Colgate alum and huge fan of our women's hockey program please give us a season or two more operating below the radar as we have the last 3 just enjoying our talent and depth and loving it when we are underestimated. The present team and next several classes are very talented and so far Greg and his asst coaches, all central New Yorkers by birth, appear like "...JUST staying at Colgate" away from the throngs and expectations of big time university hockey might not be a bad option... That said, who knows but it certainly doesn't mean he and they are not appreciated or won't be properly compensated when the time comes. Our AD well knows what she has and hopefully intends to keep the whole coaching gang happy, happy, happy... You should see their new locker room...

Good point. Class of 65 pulled it off!!!!

If you want to be below the radar, then the Raiders will need to make more of an effort to avoid playing in NCAA Championship games.

After a month off we start again with a nice win over Q who came in at #10 after 3 big wins...team had a little rust early but was smoking at the end of the game. Goalie Osborne is the real deal. Very quick and athletic with her first shutout!

[Reddington]

Colgate's not so new wide open style against an outdated Quinnipiac style resulted in a 2-0 sweep. Quinnipiac can compete if the game goes their way, but is going to struggle to keep up if the d can't slow down a high powered team. Serdachny looks to be heating up.

Colgate dominated Clarkson 4-1. Interesting how much has changed in a year. It’s not close between these teams right now. Colgate’s recruiting classes are starting to show.

[sshablak]

They are very good !

[Oldtimer]

Key so far is great goal tending and depth. Each line is a threat to score so there is no time to rest for opponents. I felt bad for Osborne yesterday, should have been a shutout. Good news for us is next years class is loaded as well...

So great to watch this team. Especially gratifying to see them beat Clarkson! Go 'gate!

[Oldtimer]

They are really playing great team hockey now. Very confident, blocking all kinds of shots, diving for the puck and when they are in their opponents’ zone really, really hard to stop. In years past Clarkson always found a way to win. This season we seem to have another gear.....

Agreed,They look very strong. Some exceptional talent up front, D tightening up and solid goaltending.
