Quoted for truth.
Days like these are what you live for as a student fanatic.
Kudos to the Oswego Athletic Department/SUNYAC/ECAC West officials for staggering the schedule as well to allow people the chance to go to all three events if they want to.

I think it would be cool to watch the man & women play at the same time
A pink puck for the girls and a blue puck for the boys, might get crowded in the goal though.

This is ridiculous. Are you worried that maybe they didn't put the right air freshener in the locker rooms?
Both teams play on the same ice surface.

My little brother bought tickets to both the women's game (at 1pm) and the men's game (at 7pm)
Both of his tickets said "Saturday, Feb 25 at 7pm"
Oops.

Yes they did play Brockport and have advanced to play Cortland. LakerEagleLover, good to know you are a trained meteorologist now as well.

The only thing bothering me is how delayed might the start be? I have seen women's playoff games go four or five overtimes before and neither Oswego nor Neumann are offensive powerhouses.
What are you talking about? I am not worrying about the ice, a few other posters were and I pointed out that it is a non issue. Apparently said posters were actually just trying to be funny and it got lost in translation, not a big deal.

What was it like in last years SUNYAC Semifinal? Did Fredonia bring a decent crowd?
I'm not expecting too many Buffalo Staters to make the long trek up to Plattsburgh, especially considering the Women's Basketball Championship is at 4 PM at home against Oneonta (on 91.3 FM WBNY too, cheap plug
).
I won't be able to track the game tonight unfortunately as I'll be at the NLL All Star Game but I don't think it's that far out of the realm of possibility for Buffalo State to pull the upset. We have won three of the last four contests, although we did lose our most recent contest in Plattsburgh by a score of 1-0. I'd honestly be kind of surprised if Buffalo State lost this game by more than a goal or two.
Very unlikely but just thought what if Fredonia and Buffalo State pull the upset.....imagine a Buffalo State/Fredonia SUNYAC Championship. But I just can't see their being a SUNYAC Championship without Oswego or Plattsburgh.

Seeing how Plattsburgh hasnt missed the Championship since 1990-1991 (due to post season ban) probably a good reason why it would seem weird.....
PS if you need or want updates send me a private message and I can text you updates.

It also essentially eliminates a Pool C slot. If either Freddy or Buff State were to win the SUNYAC, Oswego and Platty would probably both get Pool C's. It might be a close call for Platty, but they would still probably get it.

I've already got a buddy of mine who's going to text me during the game, thanks a lot for the offer though!
Yeah I was going to ask about that. I know Oswego is a lock to get a Pool C bid if they lose but I wasn't sure if Plattsburgh would get in if both Oswego and Plattsburgh lost tonight. There's only three Pool C slots available correct?

It would depend on How Amherst and Norwich do in their tourney's. If they both win and neither Oswego nor Platty wins the SUNYAC, then Platty would still get in. If by some miracle, Oswego, Platty, Norwich and Amherst ALL lose their AQ's...then the Pool C's could very well be Oswego, Norwich and Amherst. But I highly doubt that would happen.

Re: Sunyac 2011-2012 thoughts comments....
I hope that doesn't happen, Fishman would be really upset if an undeserving Amherst got a bid in that scenario.

Both Oswego and Plattsburgh.
Back then, there was no separate SUNYAC per se for hockey. They played in the ECAC West and/or NYCHA. They decided the SUNYAC champion by record. They were tied and there was no tie-breaker procedure since there was no SUNYAC per se for hockey. Similar to the way the Ivy League names a hockey champion within the ECACHL.
BTW, go ask some old time Oswego alum what happened in the first round of the ECAC West playoffs that year. Hee, hee, hee, hee...

Re: Sunyac 2011-2012 thoughts comments....
I actually did start thinking about that yesterday.
Though a Plattsburgh-Oswego final would be a barn burner, the prospect of a Fredonia-Buffalo State final also sounds very, very exciting. And, I've seen good crowds in Buffalo State for big games, so I suspect they would pack them in. And, it's not too far out of the realm.
Since, I don't care about the results of tonight's games, I'll just sit back and watch the results come in...
P.S. Any local weather update for Route 104? It's blustery and snowy here on the west side of Rochester. We already lost power last night right when I started watching the RIT-Niagara game.

Those were also the days when they played as Division II - Plattsburgh lost the NCAA Championship that year (1982) to Lowell (which was a repeat of 1981).

No snow at all here near Oswego, and the forecast is calling for an inch or two before it stops later. Wind is still howling though.

Re: Sunyac 2011-2012 thoughts comments....
I know that SUNYAC games are only supposed to be taken into account, but I get the feeling that Cody's OOC performance probably gave him the nod.
A fair point. And if all those coaches who voted for him did their research and found what you did, I'd probably have less of a problem with the selection. I would be surprised to know that was the case, though.
I just think that playing for a team that finishes 7th in a conference out 9 is too low. If they had made the SUNYACs, at least the argument could have been made that Cody "led them to the playoffs". As it is, it seems like you (and possibly the voters) are giving Cody the award based on one game. It was a terrific accomplishment to beat Plattsburgh, but should someone be named Player of the Year just because of that one victory?
And, Remy, I know you haven't forgotten that the Lakers were winless in their last 10 against the Cards before Whitelaw laced up his skates for Oswego. Not so sure you can say the Lakers would have won those two games considering his play and how much better he makes Moodie and Rodrigues.
Just my two cents. Not the biggest deal in the world - Whitelaw still has a chance to win it next year, which Cody does not. Congrats to all the winners and All-Conference selections.
