Going only by the stats, I would say they did quite well for not having played for some time. Will be nice to see them again Tuesday night.
Fredonia just ended Hobart's big winning streak too so that will be a nice win to get.
Hopefully the guys aren't too drained from yesterday's effort and long bus ride.
Lot of hockey left to be played and with the amount of losses a lot of the traditional contenders have piled up, all hope is not lost yet in purple country.
Plattsburgh and Elmira have now tied their last two meetings. Will there ever be another regular season matchup?
Next year the Soaring Eagles will be in the Primelink Tournament at Middlebury and the possibility exists for a potential meeting there. However, there will be no return trip by Plattsburgh to the Domes next season and in the distant future from what I've heard and seen. The regular season series between the two schools for all intent and purposes is over for the time being.
If they schedule the tournament the way they have in the past. Elmira will play Middlebury in the late game on the first day of action and Plattsburgh/Norwich will square off in the early game.
Elmira's schedule so far next year...
12 ECAC West games
2 PrimeLink
I'm guessing the following games stay:
Oswego (2)
Morrisville (2)
Geneseo
Cortland
Fredonia
That's 21 games.
The other four are up in the air. It'd be nice to see one or two of the NESCAC or ECAC East schools on the schedule, but we'll have to wait and see.
Bowdoin was rumored to be on it this past season but that got pulled.
