    Seems like this is the most likely outcome, but the Ivy League just cancelled all spring sports and left it up to school discretion as to what the winter sports in postseason do, so it's possible that one or more of Cornell, Yale, and Princeton also forfeit.

    There's a conference call at 4 pm EDT to work this out.

      Brandon Pirri: Turk would give it to Jagr. That's awesome! Jagr's untouchable. And he would give it to Jagr.

                At this stage, I'm not sure the ECAC Tournament continues. If all the ivies pull out, which seems likely, the tournament should be done.

                  the tweet from Harvard's hockey twitter says the "series has been cancelled" not a forfeit....

                    I think that's because forfeit would imply that RPI automatically wins. I do think they should have posted something that showed that this was a unilateral decision by them, not an agreed upon thing, but I'm sure the language was settled on between them and the league.

                      It should also be noted that Essex County NY has now declared a state of emergency (for you out-of-staters, Lake Placid is in Essex Co.) It's all setting up for Cornell to be declared undisputed champions of the universe...

                          In which case, then RPI/Smitty/Puckman/someone needs to send the message: " We didn't cancel s---t.... they bailed out..."

                            It's possible that it goes without spectators or is relocated to a campus site (presumably in Ithaca) or other neutral option (e.g., the TUC).

                              I suspect that something will come out of the ECAC conference call.

                                Everyone already knows that RPI didn't cancel anything
