Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
For an alternate site, I would recommend the standings at collegehockeystats.net instead. The standings for College Hockey News are based on three points for a win, which is what conferences like the WCHA Women or the BIG use because they award a bonus point for a shootout (or 3-on-3 OT) winner. AFAIK, the CHA just uses a more basic 2 points for a win and 1 point for a tie, which is what collegehockeystats shows. The College Hockey News method is what one typically sees for soccer (3 points for a win, 1 point for a tie).
In any case, I think that the CHA standings are current and accurate here:

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
Lakers take on RMU today at 3. RMU holds a one point lead in the CHA standings and these teams typically split with each other, and are 5-5 vs each other in their last 10.
I’ll have to check but I don’t think Hurst has been beaten at home this year. Hoping that holds true this weekend. As Arlan and Nicole pointed out in Wednesday Women the CHA is the only conference still up for grabs, which makes this one of the most interesting series in the country this weekend.
Tough to see the loss at LU last weekend - credit to LU on the win... there is something about that road trip that causes trouble for the Lakers. Something to sort out for the future. In the mean time they still control their destiny as they seek a first place finish with 3 tough series remaining: RMU, Cuse and Penn State

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
The CHA always seems to be in the same place at this point of every season. Mercyhurst and Robert Morris at the top, and Syracuse playing hardball to the end. For whatever reason, I like Mercyhurst and don't like Robert Morris, so I hope you take two from them this weekend. This is a huge series for both teams.

The goals from Lakers 5-3 win over RMU yesterday. I have a good feeling about today. In net it was a battle of two freshmen Jenna Silvonen vs Raygan Kirk. 2 pp goals for RMU, and 2 very very late in the period... But they found a way to win and putting four goals plus an empty netter on RMU is something. Some things to clean up for the Hurst but like I said I think today might be the day we see a sweep in this series.

Originally posted by ZedLeppelin View PostI wonder why Mike Sisti wouldn't have Kennedy Blair in net for a series as big as this one. Boy, he's got a pipeline to recruits in Finland, doesn't he?
Mercyhurst has done well enrolling players of cancelled programs over the years which is a little sad but hopefully it’s been a great second home for the players affected. The three North Dakota players paid immediate dividends and if Nuutinen and Tanskanen helped sell Silvonen on the Hurst, it has really benefited Mercyhurst.
I suspect and hope Silvonen is named to the Finnish roster for the WWC. To that end I’m glad she’s getting some games and wins in to prepare her and make her case for being on the roster. Have to think Silvonen gets the start again today.

Originally posted by Lindsay View PostI think after Silvonen shut out at LU she earned the start. I am hopeful Blair comes back for a fifth year next year, because she’s been a real positive for Mercyhurst.
