Quite the comeback last night in Foxboro and Fenway. Bump back to page 1.
I am reminded of the American League pre-season prognostications. They said of the AL East that all you had to know was that the Sawx could never finish first and the Yankees could never finish last.

The Yankees finished third this year.

13 days. I might as well wait until I hear something official, as opposed to the Emails.

Are you saying RPI and Hahvad may not open up the ECAC season on Oct 29th???

No, I meant that I have that long to find out the extent of Jason Kasdorf's injury and how Scott Diebold does in his place before I decide if it should affect my picks.

I think he might be referring to the Kasdorf injury, which we know very little about at the moment.

Under the rules as I understand them, you can change your entry at any time up until the deadline anyway merely by submitting a new slate.

Re: ECAC Pick The Standings Contest 20013-14
You are correct. Remember to submit a NEW Slate and DO NOT modify your initial slate. Only 11 days to get in or modify your picks.

Re: ECAC Pick The Standings Contest 20013-14
I understand that. I made my picks as post #9 on this thread.
What I wondered about, and now know the answer, was how much time I had to modify them, if I want to do that, since we did not know much about Kasdorf's injury when I made the post. Of course, we still don't know much, but at least I will be able to see how Diebold performs. When vicb used to track both original and changed picks, I found out that I was no smarter later in the preseason than I was early in the preseason, so I probably won't change my picks anyway.

And remember-since a few weeks have passed-you may have lost a few more Betz cells and other grey matter so your previous picks might have been made when you were sharper and smarter.

Last night (Friday, October 18) Union College was the only ECAC team to lose, by one point, in overtime, with a badly depleted (injury) team. Looks like the ECAC is continuing where it left off last season, kicking butt !!!!

Re: ECAC Pick The Standings Contest 20013-14
Hi Vic,
Will be picking soon. Do I get extra credit for all the times (about 10 a game) that the Clarkson Round Table Chat Room kicks me out?
