We might as well have a single thread for both the Black Tuesday game vs. Harvard and next weekend's games.
Discuss.
Is RPI seriously promoting Tuesday's October 29 game vs. Harvard as "Black Tuesday"? Because back on October 29, 1929, this happened: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Tuesday

Yes, they are, and I'm sorry if you don't get it.
Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.
Attendance has been about the same for each game so far this year. Of course, every home game has been on a Saturday. I would expect the usual 3500 or so being that it's the first ECAC game with the minus being played on a week night.

With this being a week night game-and with Harvard being notorious for not having much of a fan base travelling to our games-perhaps the HFH should have offered a 2 for 1 deal for this game? If this was a game with Union/Clarkson/Cornell it would not be necessary but getting people into the seats for Harvard/Princeton/Brown mid week is just not likely.
Take the shortest distance to the puck and arrive in ill humor
Harvard goalie Raphael Girard warmed up for this week's action with a 43-save shutout against Bentley Saturday night.
IIRC, Girard was a tough nut for RPI to crack last season, posting a 1.50 GAA in two games against the Engineers.
Bear in mind that the first Harvard game was A) a shutout for Harvard, B) took place before the cheaters left school, and C) took place during a "message-sending" game by RPI, wherein several healthy scratches were in the stands and RPI had a short bench.

I had remembered A.
Thanks for reminding me about B and C. Makes me feel a little better.
