Anytime you play in South Bend it's a big deal - Thursday's game is on national TV on NBC Sports Net (available on my cable and many others I suspect)
RIT already played two at ND and split two games so maybe we have a chance

I will be there for at least one of the games. Looking forward to seeing the Compton family ice arena and will send a couple of updates.

I think we will certainly compete. ND looks hit or miss this year and we might have a similar game to that of NU. Let's hope we pull off the upset one night and force a split (or heck let's get greedy!)

The only games for HC that matter will happen in the Atlantic Hockey playoffs as they are not getting a NCAA bid without the auto-bid this year. AIC has scheduled hard enough they would have been in the hunt for a NCAA bid but they didn't win enough.

It matters a whole lot to alums and others who are looking for the program to regain an ascendant trajectory under Coach Riga.

When you play in the worst D-1 conference and can only get an auto bid, you are what you are....

Let's hope we pull off the upset one night and force a split (or heck let's get greedy!) Just stumbled on the game.... All Irish so far in 1st 0-2. They are much faster skaters and are getting to all loose pucks.

ND definitely quicker. Men’s hockey have full complement of schollies or are they shortchanged like so many of our teams? As an aside, I really dislike our uniforms. “Holy Cross” should be on the front of our away jerseys.

At least we are in the purple sweaters. We had been wearing black and white ones with the purple crest. Nice long range goal through traffic for our Dman Higgins. We look slightly better this period.

Had a couple of close shots and almost got a shorthanded goal.
Crusaders playing pretty physical but ND has a lot of speed.

As an aside, I really dislike our uniforms. “Holy Cross” should be on the front of our away jerseys. Men's hockey is one of four teams that has the full complement of scollies allowed by the NCAA. Women's ice hockey is one of the four, but I do not know if they are there yet.
