Yale could not have gotten home ice .... what makes this so bizarre is that
Taylor was only gunning for 9th, and a game against Harvard, as opposed to the
one against Colgate that they got anyway.
So, instead of Princeton at RPI --- and Union-Vermont ... it's
Princeton-Vermont, Union-RPI. In fact, had Vermont also not rallied from a 4-1
deficit, it still would have been Union-Vermont, Princeton-RPI. These matchups
were created because the planets aligned themselves in a unique way on
Saturday.
