In my 63 years of following 'Gate hockey I don't think I have ever seen a 0% on the PK.

Was at the game last night. Yes it was disappointing that we didn’t get 3 points but it certainly was an entertaining game. Great atmosphere in the building as it was RPI’s Freakout night. As Shabby said Labelle was outstanding. He was named player of the game and it was only fitting that he got the winner in the shootout.
I have a feeling the game vs Union at home, the last game of the regular season, will determine if we’ll finish in the top 4.

It could happen Mike, Union has a tougher schedule remaining. They have two home and four away, Q-Pac Cornell and Colgate away. Short of Gate not getting it done at home, I think we "should" make it. Clarksons schedule is tougher than ours also, the game at Cheel with us is crucial also.

Took a week off of ‘Gate hockey to head south on Amtrak AutoTrain… and am watching Colgate grad Trevor Cosgrove (and Quinnipiac’s Joey Cippolone) play for Worcester Railers at Orlando Solar Bears in ECHL action tonight. Very entertaining (despite the fighting).

great news for the young man...going to the "tape" right now...best player on the ice for us on many, many nights during a tough four-year stretch...
A most wonderful thing happened to me today. I was shoveling my driveway when a Colgate student stopped and offered to do it for me. It was Pierson Brandon, our Captain!! He made quick work of it and we chatted a bit about Bobby's hat trick. His act of kindness speaks to the strength of his character and the integrity of most of the student/athletes at Colgate. Go 'gate!

Its' great to see 'Gate leading the ECAC teams in the PWR (othr than Cornell and Q-Pac ahead of us). Being in third place is quite an improvement over recent years. Ever upward!

Carter Gylander will be in goal for Colgate tonight. Jack Stark will be in goal for Yale.
Yale penalty. And Yale SHG. Second Yale shot on goal of game. Killed. Colgate had 2 PP SOG.
Colgate 12, Yale. 6, SOG after one.
Yale 1, Colgate 0, score after one.
We are going to have to play smarter if we are going to win this one. Yale women leading Colgate, 3-1, in the third period.
Colgate penalty. Killed.
Beautiful goal by Colgate’s Jake Schneider, assisted by Dom Foglia and Daniel Panetta.
Yale penalty. And Colgate goal by Ross Mitton, assisted by Alex DiPaolo and Nick Anderson. Note: Ross Mitton’s dad is a hoot. We need more like him (and Nick Anderson’s mom).
Dang! Finally, in this period, well-rehearsed plays resulted in goals!!
Another beauty. Colgate’s Simon LaBelle from Ross Mitton and Tommy Bergsland.
Colgate 23, Yale 11, SOG after two.
Colgate 3, Yale 1, score after two.
I get on our defense a lot, but holding Yale to 11 SOG in two periods deserves an ‘atta boys!’

A couple of weeks ago, at “Chalk Talk,” the audience was asked to name Carter Gylander’s strengths. I replied ‘his kick saves.’ The correct answer was ‘his puck anticipation.’ Tonight, when leaving the building, Charlie basically said to me, ‘Carter made some incredible kick saves tonight, and he did them so nonchalantly that they almost went unnoticed.’
At tonight’s “Chalk Talk,” Zach Badalamenti talked about our Power Play. Naturally, Yale scored a shortie on our first Power Play of the game. he he he. Thankfully, Ross Mitton and Ethan Manderville later showed how the team’s PP strategy works with goals.
Tonight was a very good night for Colgate in ECAC Hockey. Quinnipiac and Cornell are so far ahead of us, their wins don’t really matter. But Union and Brown losses are helpful. Colgate beating Yale was HUGE, especially when coupled with Dartmouth upsetting Clarkson. Harvard upending Saint Lawrence also helped. And RPI over Princeton doesn’t hurt as they are both so far behind us.
It was good seeing the usual suspects tonight; read that Charlie, “Red,” Barb, Patty, R. Braden, Katie, Jackie and the Pep Band (and multiple players’ parents and girlfriends).

Couldn't get my ESPN+ working last night, anyone else have a problem ? Just got the score and am watching the game on ESPN+ right now. As Iowa said, huge win and help from other losses. Just win at home.
Gylander playing well in first so far.

I am a fan of college hockey, so I put a lot of emphasis on the PairWise Rankings (PWR) even though I know for Colgate it is now all about the ECAC Hockey tournament to get into the NCAA tournament (like last year). Having said that, today, Colgate is PWR #29 of the 64 D1 MIH programs. We’ve been in the 40s and 30s so long, I forget that a PWR in the 20s was possible (especially for a team with an all-new coaching staff). Quinnipiac is #8 and Cornell is #11, and both of those numbers would likely put them in the NCAA tournament if the Selection Show was today. Go ‘Gate!!

That’s why those non league games are important. What if we would have split with UConn and Maine and swept LIU? Maybe low 20s/high teens in the PWR?
If we finish 3rd and get to LP, I think Harder has a great shot at Coach of the Year.
