The official impact of Cornell’s three-game skid, including
a pair of road losses at Dartmouth and Harvard this past weekend,
has yet to be determined. Will it be forever referred to as the St.
Valentine’s Day massacre, or will it be remembered as a mere
glitch along the Red’s championship path?
“There’s no overreaction from our players or our
coaching staff, whether we’ve won three in a row or whether
we lost three in a row,” said head coach Mike Schafer
’86. “It’s all about the next game and staying
focused on making sure that we’re ready to go.”
According to Schafer, the Red’s (15-6-4, 10-5-3 ECAC Hockey)
first three-game losing streak since last February is not a cause
for alarm. Coincidentally, Friday night’s contest in Hanover,
N.H. marked the first time in two and a half years that Cornell
registered four goals and still lost the contest.
