    They must have updated it since the time I posted, because there was originally no USMA game, and UCONN was listed as a home/home. I can understand them moving that, as traveling 2.5 hours for a home/home seems a bit much. Very nice that they'd like for us to play in Hartford, and given the AHL plays weekends, not to mention the Mayor's Cup, probably a good thing it's when it is.

    Good to see it is a full schedule.
    A weekend home/home with UConn is roughlt comparable to one with UMass. Instead we have the equivalent in Harvard (away) on Friday and Army (home) on Saturday but with even longer travel time. Either way it is still far easier than the Ivy League basketball pairing that requires an overnight trip between Ithaca and Manhattan.

    The schedule also incorrectly lists UConn in Hartford as a neutral site game. The XL Center has been the male Huskies home since they joined HE. The on-campus Freitas Ice Arena doesn't come close to meeting league standards.

      Even if it wasn't the normal spot, UConn is still very much the host of the game, so the RatingsPI will be reflected accordingly. Similar to when we played Sacred Heart in Bridgeport.

        Today is 13 June 2018. There are 115 days until RPI's next game.


        This is based upon 6 October 2018 for the start of next season.

            It's been posted. That means it is more or less final.

              I highly doubt it's going to change much. However, I do see one thing that needs to change... Ralph...

                  Still not getting it, I see... Check the schedule again. Our first game is not on the 6th.

                        Uh oh! Rules are being made because of us again!



                        They are considering dressing 19 skaters, rather than 18. It was only 14 or 15 when I was a freshman.

                          Not surprised by this, considering it's seen in international play. And it may justify the large number of players on the squad.

                            Does this mean they will add a second tier, perhaps a luxury suite, to the benches?

                              The goalies will get to stand at the entrances on the east side.
