Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Congrats to Colgate tonight-they simply wanted this game more and we just made too many defensive mistakes. Now it comes down to who can come out and take charge tomorrow.

Geez..I can't believe all the empty seats for an RPI playoff game..Yikes! (...of course it would be the same in Hamilton). But with a nationally ranked team, in a huge metropolitan area, one would think there would be more of a crowd:(

Yea but we would have filled Starr 3 times !

Whew, got all the videos done a lot earlier this time around.

Full game:

Highlights (again, all the same video):

Look for the "hyper-motion" on Polacek's shortie -- he moves the puck between Mihalik and his stick. Amazing.

Most of the RPI TV crew are secretly glad we're playing a 3rd game. We're always happy to delay packing up all our equipment and moving it back to the Union.

I really like the director's cut. I certainly hope you guys do more of those not only for our benefit of what goes on behind the scenes, but for your own when you get freshmen joining in September.

Looks like Mihalik tried to poke it away from Polacek by sweeping his stick in the direction of the puck...that'll never work. Sweet move by Chase, either way.

Nice job, RH. Wish I could use your broadcasts to watch the game live tonight. :(

Technically you can on B2, but we all know that we'd rather watch a better quality version of their broadcasts.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Got an interesting email from B2 overnight indicating they're dumping the Windows Media Player video player and switching to a flash player. Looks like you Linux guys will be able to start using the webstreams after all.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

You guys seeing the same goal I saw ?? Polacek was lucky the puck snuck thru. If Michalik had the paddle down instead of the blade he would have pokechecked it away. Still a nice goal but he was lucky the puck snuck by.

Also, if York had made a save on the first goal, it wouldn't have been a goal either!

Interesting, we noticed Friday night they were using "Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder" rather than "Windows Media Encoder", so perhaps there is some hope for improvement.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Still don't understand why more fannies not in the seats :yikes:

Will HFH be full for tonight's tilt? Ned Harkness is rolling over....

For a Sunday night game, I would expect 1500-2000. Hoping for more but not expecting much.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Big goal. Shorthanded breakaway goal by Mayer to give Colgate 1-0 lead. 5:41 left in 1st.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

RPI turnover almost leads to a Colgate goal in the closing seconds of the first. Still 1-0 Colgate after 1.

Quite a few empty seats going by the B2 feed. For a do-or-die playoff game, that's disappointing. Especially when the home team is nationally ranked.
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Great series with RPI! Congrats on a great season.......and possibly a post season. Loved watching the games on your student network. Great job!!!!
 
Re: Colgate @ RPI (ECAC Playoffs) March 4,5...

Heck of series

Tough loss for RPI, Engineers played a good series, especially York and Polacek. Good luck next year
