Some free legal advice. You might want to check with Connecticut DMV first to see if they reciprocate through compact with NY in archiving driving records. If a NY driver you'd be looking at a 4 point speed. You are allowed 11 in an 18 month period. That or 3 speeding convictions can lead to a license suspension. Also it could effect your insurance. It might be worth you finding and calling a local attorney who in all likelihood could get you a reduction to a 2 point nonspeed like failure to obey a traffic control device or even a nonmoving violation like parking on the pavement. The latter two reductions would actually realize more revenue to the Town as they get to keep the money for those fines, unlike the moving violations. It shouldn't cost you a fortune for a lawyer and it could save you some money in the long run.

New York does not send anything out of state at all. There's no points, no insurance record, just a fine (+$55 tax on the fine). The only time out-of-state would ever be notified is if you don't pay the fine, in which case your license could be suspended.

Has anyone seen any ECAC hotel packages available ?

If you go to the ECAC web site they have a link with the details. Trump Plaza and the Tropicana have a special code you need to reference... apparently you have to call them directly.

Re: Colgate 2011-12

Great article on your guy Austin Smth on USCHO. I love stories about kids who don't listen to adults who tell them they aren't good enough. This kid should get the Hobey. He has 9 more goals than the number 2 goal scorer. I saw you guys play only once this year, at Dartmouth, an easy win for Colgate. I also watched the Internet feed on Sunday versus Quinnipiac. Your top 2 guys are fun to watch, and they have to be the best offensive tandem in college hockey this year. I wish I had seen more of them. You also have some terrific skating defensemen, Price and Sins (?) being the ones I remember from Sunday night. And a second line center (maybe third line center?) who'd be a top line guy most places. And the goalie was exceptional also. Good luck in AC. A true shame on the league not to have a TV broadcast.
 
Re: Colgate 2011-12

Thx, czeck...welcome to the board, even if it is late in the season...but just in time for the postseason! Which team/league do you follow?

That was a great article, though you've probably noticed that not everyone supports those points of view, hence the EZAC monniker. I doubt there is any league fan who wouldn't want to see Smith win the Hobey. Unfotunately, the ECAC tourney may seal his fate. Colgate has been sporadic since January. When they're on, they're on. We've beaten some good teams and lost to underperformers. If last season proves anything, the postseason is all that matters. Mihalik (G) looked great on Sunday - I have not been his biggest fan but he put forth a stellar performance and our D had one of their best efforts of the season blocking shots. With Smith gone next year, we still have some great potential and incoming frosh so there is reason to be optimistic. If you followed Colgate last year, you would agree what a difference a year makes...and IMHO I don't even think we were that bad last year, just didn't get all the bounces...a bit like Harvard this year. At least we're 2 for 2 going to Atlantic City...great run to the postseason. Now if it would just translate into at least one win!

Colgate #20 in the polls...nice boost as we head to Atlantic City.
Good Luck Colgate
 
Re: Colgate 2011-12

congrat to Brian Sullivan on a tremendous piece on Austin Smith...would love to see him get the Hobey...I know I can't help but be biased; however, it's hard to see anybody beating his body of work this year (BTW, the ECAC IS a decent league even if it doesn't quite match up with, say, the WCHA)...
 
Re: Colgate 2011-12

I saw both games against Union this year and know we can beat them. Both games were open netters at the end, we outshot them at Union. In the second game penalties did us in, Union had EIGHT powerplays converting on one.

It will take an almost perfect game, stay out of the "sin bin", good goaltending, and I really hope Austin breaks the single season goal scoring record(38 Dan Fridgen). Coincidently "Fridge and Adam Wodon" are the tv broadcasters for the stream. Play like Sunday night ! Go Raiders !

There was a reference somewhere -- can't find it -- about possibly the RPI students televising the Friday PM game. Does anyone know more about this or have a link to information?

RPI-TV will be webcasting the game through B2. However, after the weekend, they will have the game on their website on demand for free.

See www.rpitv.org for further information; they have (or at least had) a press release there.

Does anyone know who plays at the rink in AC and the size of the ice surface ?

For your real answer, the rink in AC does not currently house an AHL team, although one existed in the early 2000's. The ice surface size is equivalent to that of an NHL rink.
 
Re: Colgate 2011-12

In 2001-2005, the ECHL had a franchise there called the Boardwalk Bullies. The AHL had their All-Star game there this year. Other than special events, the Hall has no permanent sports tenants.

DO NOT mention the word "paint" with this location. We'd like to see the event happen on time. http://www.thealbanydevils.com/devils-game-against-penguins-in-atlantic-city-postponed

Don't worry. It won't be the paint because it will be the ice. I'll bet you a beer that they're going to have that squeegee kid again running around the ice for 10 minutes after they run the resurfacer. Looks like outside temperatures are going to be warmer this year, and possibly more humidity.

Don't forget to bring your shorts to the rink!

Why the hell would I go to AC? My team is out because of the curse of the Union Rule!
