This weekend, the women’s hockey team will travel to Brown and Yale for its final games of the regular season. Regardless of the results, the Tigers (14-12-1 overall, 11-8-1 ECAC Hockey) will participate in the ECAC Championship, a tournament featuring the top eight teams from the 12-team conference, for the 10th year in a row.
The matchups against Brown (2-22-3, 1-16-3) and Yale (8-16-13, 7-11-2) may be pivotal for the Tigers’ playoff success. The top four teams get home-ice advantage, and the Tigers, ranked fifth, are just one point behind Quinnipiac.
Tying Quinnipiac (20-10-2, 12-8) in points would still leave the Tigers in fifth, so they will need to overtake the Bobcats if they want to play at Baker Rink next weekend. Princeton plays better at home than away, as its 9-4-1 home record compared to a 5-8 road performance confirms.
