UMaine Hockey 23 - 24: The Barr Crawl to Glory!!!

[9twenty]

Bottom line Maine is still playing...at least once or two times next week...where: I don't care.. who they play: I don't care.....it's Maine hockey in late March...Christmas time...!

Iowa is stuck 10-20 years in the past. The most recent teams have had more skilled and fast-skating players, which, along with strong goaltending and Schafer's emphasis on defense and tenacity, is a huge part of the reason that the team has had multiple NCAA appearances in recent years. This longstanding, ancient idea that Cornell is a dirty, oversized team is ridiculous and misleading. I'm looking forward to seeing how they match up with Maine if the committee decides to place the two together in Springfield.

Yep, Iowa is a Colgate groupie who is jealous of Cornell’s success and fan base. The Big Red plays a much different style than a decade ago. While still disciplined defensively and tough on the forecheck, Cornell is much more talented across the board (not BC level talent mind you) and by no means plays a goonish style.

If you get Cornell in Springfield, be prepared for goon hockey.

Which Regional will Colgate be participating in this year?

I think it might have something to do with the refs knowing that Cornell's style is very hands-on, and as a result letting stuff go in deference to Schafer (he's been there 20 years) but IDK.

I am surprised that they have drawn fewer penalties than has had Maine, though.

This post is a good way to demonstrate you never watch Cornell play without explicitly saying you never watch Cornell play.

On this date 1 year ago Colgate was beaten like a drum by Michigan 11-1

You would think they could win with a little class instead of gooning it up.

Who gooned it up? Didn't see the game, but BU took the brunt of the penalties at the end.

I think this is a way of saying you never watch games that don’t involve Cornell without…

I'm surprised. I thought you were better than this.

I watched four college hockey games last night, including three that didn’t involve Cornell.

The NCAA could swap the 1 seeds for
Denver vs UMass (Springfield)
Michigan State vs Western Michigan (Missouri)
Boston University vs RIT (Sioux Falls)

Let me get my violin.

So far looking that way. Sparty and western in Missouri

He just said he was in lake placid

his opinion is that Cornell got away with lots more than others

it is a valid opinion

Cornell hasn’t played a decent team in over two months so Maine should have a massive advantage.

 

[amkirby10]

It will be Maine vs Cornell. Hoping for a good matchup (and preferably a Maine win), best of luck to the Big Red.

being at the rink is a lot different than watching tv

but Either you know that, or there’s no point telling you

Won’t be able to make the Thursday game but grabbed tix for Saturday just in case.

Because they gooned it up.

BC player threw a cheap shot at Celebrini and tried to hurt him once the game was decided.

Not sure how it makes sense that a team that is losing two hours has to play at 2:00.

 

[walrus]

Cornell and their New Jersey Devils style hockey is not good for Maine. I guess it depends on which league the refs are from?

Not sure how it makes sense that a team that is losing two hours has to play at 2:00.

Ratings maybe? Anyone's guess why Denver is the earlier game and anyone who is in that area may only be able to see the first period before the end of the 12:00 lunch hour while the two teams in the regional with arguably the most fervent fanbases would be able to see the game if not there in person
