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.

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
Is part of the reason RMU taking the last three season titles? Back in the days when Mercyhurst was busy winning 387 consecutive CHA titles -- and it might have been a slightly lower number -- the Lakers were a little harder for other CHA teams to like.
It sure is. But Hurst was picked to finish number one in the conference. They can feel confident in their ability to get it done. Gotta start with tonight.
Is point spread from 1 to 4 tighter than it’s been in the past? It feels like it but who knows. And third is not a done deal by anyone yet either. Always welcome your good vibes for the Hurst Zed.

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.

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
I really don't know what it is about Mercyhurst rather than Robert Morris, but I've always really looked forward to Penn State playing them. It used to mean a guaranteed whooping, but it's gotten closer as time has gone on and it ends up being just a great weekend of hockey. Overall, in conference standings, Penn State isn't at the point yet of challenging Mercyhurst for a top spot, but the games are always fun.

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
I 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?

I 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.
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.

Maine took the best one since Nuutinen, Ida Kuoppala. Impressive win by Mercyhurst.
Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
Lakers go undefeated at home this year 12-0-4, with a 1-0 win over Syracuse today. Only goal was by Emma Nuutinen assisted by Vasko. Nuutinen toe dragged the defender as cut to the middle then went to her back hand and roofed it against Allison Small. Really pretty goal.
Obvious stars are Nuutinen, and Blair who got the shutout. Great team game and the team made history with their home record this year - never went unbeaten at home before. Congrats to all. Edit: ok they went unbeaten once at home before, still amazing!
Thought Pinto, Knott and Mortlock all made some great individual plays today whether it was clogging up the middle late in the game, cleaning up the puck in front of the Laker net when things were a little yikes, or jumping into the air to keep a puck in the offensive zone respectively. things the scoresheet doesn’t show. Korzack was all over the ice in a good way.
Really exciting time of year in women’s hockey and hopefully for the Lakers the best is yet to come. Penn State on the road next weekend.

Congrats on the fantastic home record this season - wowza!
It's Senior Day next Saturday at Penn State, so you can't win that one. In fact, showing up with an extra-short Mercyhurst bench would be the right thing to do. You know, for the Penn State seniors.

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
A great 2 wins by the Lakers over Syracuse this weekend. Senior day on Sat capped off by an ‘undefeated at home’ record and a beauty goal from Nuutinen. Highlight goal !
Next week Lakers at Penn State while Syracuse at RMU. It’ll be an interesting regular season CHA final weekend for sure .

Re: 2019-20 Mercyhurst Lakers!
Enjoying the Mercyhurst Penn State broadcast. They are playing Christmas music between periods for some reason, but I guess that’s how they roll. And now the zamboni song.... I really do need to get to a game at Penn State!
Little bit of power play left for the Lakers as they start the second. Blair is looking sharp in net. 1-0 Lakers on a nice goal off the rush by Korzack assisted by Theissen....goal was maybe tipped by Pinto.
