No fans so they don't need a big building. Maybe they should just move it to Frear Park.

Yeah, no.

Even without fans it's an embarrassing rink.

If I'm Union I'm a little ****ed. First they lose to Yale on a call that was 50/50 at best and then the Bulldogs pull out.......

NHL is having a conference call with the owners tomorrow. They will prob follow the lead of the NBA. No way they'll play anymore games in the ECAC IMHO

Well, that's what's happened in China, and the cases are coming down. My colleagues in China have been through hell, however, the data seems to show some semblance of it being a good idea.

FWIW, I received an e-mail from Starbucks saying what they are doing to prevent COVID-19 from spreading. They mentioned that over 90% of their stores in China have reopened. I don't know if they overreacted initially.

Of the three finalists whom we have for ECAC awards, Reilly, Smith, and Babichuk, the only one whom I expected was Smith.

I agree with all of that. i think Smith should be the leading a candidate but whether he wins or not is up in the air. Reilly is a force but in my opinion, more so on offense and not as a defensive defense man. Babichuk is really starting to look great out there but missed some time and is a long shot in his category. i must admit it feels pretty good to have so much of this team getting recognition, especially Savory, who has just been a wall. I hope he does not get too much interest though as I really would like to see him in Troy for at least another year (hopefully 2).

I don't see Savory leaving. The last goalie I recall leaving after sophomore year is Keith Kinkaid, who after a few years splitting shifts in the NHL is now on a two-way. Setting rivalries aside, is Savory as good as him? Or is he closer to the level of someone like Kyle Hayton, who bopped around the ECHL after summer-school-grad transferring and hasn't seen ice time (if he's even in uniform) this year? Let's also think about the last two goalies we've had to make some noise pro: York and Kasdorf. What sort of comparisons could you make there?

Savory will likely stay at least one more year. I would re-evaluate after that.

I agree that he will stay another year, but the fact we do have another goalie coming in (Brett Miller) makes me wonder if he already said he is leaving. (Miller must come in the fall because he is a '99.) I don't think that Calvaruso is leaving because he already used his redshirt year. Marshall could be leaving.

I see this just as you do. Having a fourth goalie coming in made me think that someone might be on the fence about leaving. i also think that OS has not been seriously thinking about leaving but one never knows what sort of offers are out there.

I think Marshall will leave...based only on my gut. If he has any desire to play hockey, it makes no sense for him to stay in Troy.
