HC 1991: good job on the internet research for the Teapot Tourney...it only took you an hour. Does that make YOU a legit grad?

BTW: As has been reported this morning in the New Haven newspaper, the link to which unfortunately cannot be accessed, Quinnipiac has been offered an invite and HC a tentative invite.

All of you might remember my posting a couple of days ago when I said that my source believed that HC would lose out to Quinnipiac and that the reason would shock and amaze all of us. I told you that I was outraged at the reasoning being offered. And as supposedly reported, the reason is outrageous and exactly as I was told! Given that RPI and Clarkson don't presently have or are just converting their women's program to D1, the fact that HC also only has a D3 women's team now is seemingly hypocritical.

TALK ABOUT VINDICATED. I WOULD NORMALLY EXPECT AN APOLOGY FROM THOSE WHO CHALLENGED MY CREDIBILITY, BUT GIVEN THE OBVIOUS LACK OF CLASS DISPLAYED BY HC 1991 I DON'T.

If anyone has further info on the ECAC story or can post the article, please do so.

Thank God that there may actually be a silver lining to this cloud.

Though I didn't doubt you, I may have doubted your source (whoever he/she was) but let me be the first to apologize and express my strong surprise at what we've been reading (I'm too old to be shocked by almost anything anymore).

What really surprises me is that there appears to be nothing on the USCHO site yet and that seems suspicious.

I also agree with those who say that the DIII status of the ladies should have been part of the equation up front not something to be dangled out as some sort of incentive.

Finally, if I'm reading this right, it appears that this is a recommendation of a sub-group and not the final decision making body. But...... Quinnipiac????!!!!

To me, this is worst than a BB loss to Williams.
