We could have used this vs. Cornell. https://chl.ca/whl/gamecentre/1022728/ See 6:09 in the embedded video.
Some comments. This shootout went 14 rounds.
Kamloops first shooter JP Hurlbert who missed is expected to go in the first round of the 2026 NHL draft. The second who also missed, Tommy Lafreniere, was a 3rd round choice of Edmonton last year.
RPI recruit Josh Evaschesen also scored a goal at about 2:40 of the video..

RPI is slowly getting into the merch game. Wish I could've attended the games this weekend to try and win a jersey but at least they offering Mayors Cup clothes with the logo.

I know this isn't hockey-related per se, but it has always been a pet peeve of mine that RPI doesn't push cool merch more for their...checks notes...only D1 sport which is arguably the face of the school. I am going to put my money where my mouth is on this one and buy some schwag.

Go Puckman
Auf dem Weg zur Nummer 1
Did anyone else notice that Russell left the game after a hard hit and never returned? I believe it happened in the second period.
Agree - back in the 80's there was a ton of stuff available both at the Student Union Bookstore and at the games. When the RPI Invitational/Christmas Tournament was going well, the 3 visiting school brought stuff to be sold at the games also. Jenny has sweat shirts and pins from most of the schools that compete.

Wasn't "Friday Scores!" the call of the first goal against UMD in the 1985 semifinal?

How would everyone here assess year 1 under Lang? Real chance for 10 wins, recruiting at a level we haven't seen in a decade, close calls in Mayors Cup, Cornell, etc.
Hard not to be really excited about where the program is going. I only hope the HFH renovations really take off and aren't just something that is "in the works" forever

I’m optimistic but I always pause when reading claims about improved recruiting. I’ve heard similar claims about great recruits too many times over the past 20 years that mostly didn’t pan out.
Agree that performance of the team on the ice is improving.
I’m very excited for the future of the program. I think we’re still in the crawl phase of the rebuild but the recruiting is getting significantly better. HFH finally getting some needed work. No thanks to your royal highness Jackson. I can’t wait to see who we bring in the portal. Last thing we need new sweaters. The current uniforms are so so. The away sweaters are awful
He was one of those boys who made the 85 team so very goodWasn't "Friday Scores!" the call of the first goal against UMD in the 1985 semifinal?
Up until the past weekend still was unsure. As has been mentioned, recruiting is only what you get to see on paper. how it translates to on ice performance has just been very unpredictable and now with the change in recruiting rules - who knows!!! But there is no question the boys are now providing some really exciting play and I am beginning to think that there are some teams out there that might want to play some one else in the playoffs.
