St. Lawrence University 2013-2014: Carey, Carey, carry us to Placid ... And beyond?

Re: St. Lawrence University 2013-2014: Carey, Carey, carry us to Placid ... And beyon

If we both win--rounds 5 & 6!
And that scares me.
Wouldn't it be just round 5? By then, it's just 1 game I think.
And yes, I'd be scared as well.

Not necessarily true, I think. Y'all will play the lowest remaining seed, so it could be whoever is 6 or 7, should they pull the upset on Cornell/Harvard. Unlikely, but who knows.

Thoughts after being at both games:

To the individual who helped me get to my seat at RPI, I extend a big thank you and, at the same time, I owe you a big apology. You deserve better. Someday, just maybe, I will learn to keep my thoughts to myself.:o

As for the games, our Saints busted their tails both nights. No shame in the game/result at Union - they are scary good. Wenny was spectacular both nights, and I really liked that we didn't pack it in on Sat. night.

If we were Colgate, it should scare you. SLU has not had much luck in Potsdam over the years............so, that's the last matchup I want.

My best guess is that we play Brown in the first round; not exactly a good matchup either but we'll be fine no matter who we play (see wins vs. ranked teams) if we bring our A-game this weekend and beyond.

Joe was referring to the women's tourney, not the men's. The only way we play you in the men's tourney is if you fall to 11th or 12th. Regardless, the thought of playing you again scares me. Yes, we've had good luck lately, but I don't want to press my luck.
 
Recruiting - curious as to why SLU has not recruited from local CCHL junior league for several years now. Clarkson, Colgate continue to get key players from this league. Many great Saints players have come from this league in the past. ??

Just turned off another game halfway through because I can't stomach it.

0-4 on PP, and 0-4 on PK, with more than a period left to play. I am speechless.

Well, I just turned it off with it 7-0 half-way through the third. I am totally :o:o:o:o:o:o:o

Now 8-0 Quinny; going 5-5 with 12 shots on the PP. The SLU play by play guy keeps calling Quinny: Union??? :rolleyes:

I don't care where we recruit..........just get some guys who know how to kill off a penalty. This team has NO CLUE!

Well that sucked! Anybody have any confirmation on who holds the tie breaker between Dartmouth and SLU ... I know head to head is 1-1 and is the second tie breaker wins?
 
Re: St. Lawrence University 2013-2014: Carey, Carey, carry us to Placid ... And beyon

Looks like Dartmouth owns the tie breaker ... And I know this is a long shot, but if SLU/Clarkson both lose and Dartmouth/Harvard both win and Yale beats RPI tomorrow then it is SLU vs. Clarkson next weekend in first round of the playoffs :eek:

Enjoy the next 8 days of SLU hockey. Get swept in the 1st round and the misery is over.

Just keep on fighting. There is nothing else to do.

I still don't want anything to do with SLU come the playoffs. Obviously they have flaws, but if there was ever a team just set up to deliver a crushing upset, it's them. No thank you -- please go haunt U or Q.
 
Re: St. Lawrence University 2013-2014: Carey, Carey, carry us to Placid ... And beyon

I left at 4-0 also.

From what I see, we still have a good chance for a series. We beat Princeton, Union beats Brown, Cornell beats Harvard, and Colgate beats Dartmouth. All are quite possible and our fate is our hands and the hands of 3 of the top 4 teams in the league (two of whom are playing at home.) This gives an 8th seed and a home stand against Brown. Then again, maybe we want to be on the road and the underdog.

Actually 2 of the top teams because even if Harvard wins and we win we hold the tie breaker. We need to win, Colgate needs to win and Union needs to win and we have home ice.
