Colgate 2019-20

RIP Robin Jaycox. Colgate hockey would not have made the strides it did in the late 1970's early 80's if not for him. Coach Slater's right hand man - a twin in significance to Admissions Director Dave Perham!

Always enjoyed sitting near Robin in Starr Rink. For those that don't know, he was a very talented artist as well. He will be missed; was a part of so many successful hockey teams.

Football will end up at .500 or worse. I hope hockey can do better this season. The women look a bit shaky so far.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Right up front, I will acknowledge that I goofed today. I leisurely drove north from Indy to Big Rapids, Michigan, ahead of tomorrow night’s Ferris State game against Seth Appert’s US National Team Development Program and then Thursday’s game against Colgate. On the way north, I looked at the College Hockey News app and realized that their exhibition game was tonight (not tomorrow). Oops!! Anyway, I arrived just after the second period ended, with Ferris State up 5-0 on the Under-18 squad. I enjoyed the scoreless third period, but didn’t see anything that made me think Colgate should fear Ferris State for Thursday night. They apparently used freshman Carter McPhail in periods one and two, and I saw their frosh Finnish goalie Roni Salmenkangas play the third period (to finish out the game). Roni played well, but wasn’t really tested. Junior forward Marshall Moise looked strong, I thought. I am looking forward to seeing Colgate play on Thursday in this old-time hockey arena with its low ceiling and rowdy fans.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

A win tonight sure would be nice, especially after my Braves and Browns performances. At least I have the Bruins.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Shabby, forgot you were a Browns fan...BTW, Baker DID shake hands with 49er players before the game...nonetheless, offensive line needs work, Baker needs work, Kitchens needs work...couldn't stand it last Monday and turned the game off with 10 minutes to go...never should've turned the game on...both 'Gate football and the Dawg Pound desperately need wins this weekend...and a win in Big Rapids tonight would also help my current depression...
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Good luck tonight. The ECAC will need all the non-conference wins it can. Not clear we are going to contribute many this year.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Mitch Benson led Colgate onto the ice tonight for the pre-game warm-up at Ewigleben Ice Arena in Big Rapids, Michigan. Ferris State Bulldogs are coming off exhibitions against Waterloo (2-2 tie) and US NTDP Under-18 (5-0 win).
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 12, Ferris State 8, SOG after one.
Colgate 1, Ferris State 1, score after 1.
Very entertaining game.
Colgate had a power play. They kept the pressure on immediately after it was over and Verboon scored unassisted on Finnish goalie.
Ferris had a power play (on Penner penalty) and Lucas Finner scored.
We out-shot and out-played them. Good period.
16 seconds left on Vachon’s Kneeing penalty to open second period.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 19, Ferris State 15, SOG after two.
Colgate 1, Ferris State 1, score after two.
Still entertaining.
We had our fair share of power plays in that period but just couldn’t capitalize on those opportunities.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 29, Ferris State 23, SOG final.
Ferris State 3, Colgate 1, score final.
They wanted it more.
Beautiful unassisted goal by their Rutkowski to open the period. And Empty Net Goal by Norris to close the period and game.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Don't feel too bad. The rink at FSU is a very tough place to play being so small. FSU has it down and it's worth at least a goal per game to them. Everyone has a tough time there.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

let's set the record straight...I'm optimistic - cautiously so - out TWO YEARS...one does have to ask the question (and I am agnostic on this issue) why are we scoring 1.5 goals/game in our last 38 games (and frankly, we weren't scoring much before that time frame)? Is it a coaching philosophy? I've never questioned DV's coaching ability (and I don't mean to make any assertions in this direction), but, at least, the issue MUST be addressed...even if our recruiting has been down in recent years our kids, by and large, were at least decent scorers at the pre-collegiate level...Griffin Lunn was an OK scorer in a tough league (USHL); Jeffrey Stewart was a point/game scorer in the higher-scoring BCJL...I simply don't know, but at a minimum 2.5 goals/game is necessary to be within earshot of a .500 season...

By the time I turned the Braves game on it was 10-0 in the first inning, as I said before, thank you Bruins. The lowest point would be a loss to Bucknell Saturday.:(
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Our football and men's ice hockey teams are a combined 0-8. We're still very early into the hockey season, but God help us, please!
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

A fourth recruit from the BCHL with a point a game stats, all good !! BC beat Wisco last night, Sunday a very stern test to say the least.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Mitch Benson again led ‘Gate on the ice for today’s pre-game warm-up. Boston College is 21-2-0 versus Colgate. Our two wins came in 1980-81 (6-3 at home) and 1982-83 (4-1 at home).
I saw Robert Morris defeat Bentley at home yesterday, 4-1, on my drive home from our 3-1 loss at Ferris State on Thursday.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Boston College 12, Colgate 10, SOG after one.
Boston College 1, Colgate 0, score after one.
Wow. That was one fast-paced period of hockey.
And this is one talented, quick and accurate BC team.
Kudos to Colgate (and BC) for scheduling this non-conference contest.
Good opportunity to see first-hand to what we aspire.
 
Re: Colgate 2019-20

Colgate 31, Boston College 19, SOG after two.
Boston College 2, Colgate 0, score after two.
Wow. That was another fast-paced period of hockey.
The goal came 17 seconds into the second period.
I don’t know the exact stats, but we have had more Power Play opportunities than BC, thus the shot total.
It is an absolute honor to watch a team of BC’s caliber (with Jerry York at the helm).
