The ability to execute this formula has changed drastically with the introduction of the House settlement and paying players. How do small schools still compete in college hockey with these changes? I examine that in part 2 rpifieldhouse.com/p/how-the-…
How did Quinnipiac win a national championship coming from the ECAC, beating 3 big ten teams along the way? How did Minnesota State get one period away from also taking it home? I broke down the blueprint for small schools here. Give it a read! rpifieldhouse.com/p/the-form…

RPI did well to get back into the game after a bad 1st period. Gotta have a better start tomorrow to earn the split

Would be nice if Union would stop running Krawchuk

Tonight is the first RPI-Union matchup where both teams are at least receiving votes since November 15-16, 2013. RPI was ranked 10th in the country while Union was receiving votes

Jayson Tatum just hit another game-winner. Since 1996-97, no other player has a higher FG% on shots to tie or take the lead in the final 24 seconds of a game. (min 60 FGA)

RPI is just outside the top 20 after a 3-1 start
Michigan is the new No. 1!

Engineers actually won the xG battle yesterday despite the shots difference. Shoutout to @rms_hockey for the excellent game analytic breakdown!

SLU managing to lose to a brand new program in game 1 is incredibly embarrassing. They might be even worse than I thought coming into the year (which is difficult to be clear!)

Very cool data here
As the season is underway and we start to see overreactions to small samples, I decided to look into when you can start to trust team results based on when they begin to stabilize:

FYI to @chnews, a lot of transfers have the wrong class years on team rosters. They frequently are off by one year (in either direction)

My yearly ECAC hockey preview is out now! 14k words going in depth over every team with predictions and analysis. I think the league will surprise this year with 3 teams in the NCAA tournament and I think Quinnipiac makes it to DC. Enjoy! rpifieldhouse.com/p/ecac-pre…

How much do NCAA hockey players progress every year? Here’s a look at how their scoring improves based on their age. The data ends up working out to be very clean rpifieldhouse.com/p/predicti…
