It\u2019s a full slate of ECAC action this weekend. All games are at 7 p.m., except for Brown at Colgate, which faces off at 4 p.m. on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Yale at Colgate<\/strong> Mark: The Raiders have lost four straight to the Bulldogs. Many of the names and faces have changed, but the result is the same. Yale 4-1<\/p>\n Brown at Cornell<\/strong> Mark: Anything can happen when the two top power plays in the nation collide, but home ice puts the Big Red over the top. Cornell 3-1<\/p>\n Quinnipiac at Dartmouth<\/strong> Mark: The high temperature last Saturday in Tempe, Ariz., where Quinnipiac lost a pair, was 88 degrees. High temp Friday in Hanover, N.H., is expected to be 34. Bobcats\u2019 cold streak continues. Dartmouth 5-4<\/p>\n Princeton at Harvard<\/strong> Mark: With good upperclassmen and flashy freshmen, it looks to me like Harvard has too much offense for the Tigers. Harvard 6-3<\/p>\n St. Lawrence at Rensselaer<\/strong> Mark: The Engineers have lost two out of three at home so far, but I like them to pull out a win here. Rensselaer 3-2<\/p>\n Clarkson at Union<\/strong> Mark: After two overtime wins last weekend, the Golden Knights get the job done in regulation time. Clarkson 6-4<\/p>\n Saturday Mark: Brown\u2019s shooting percentage is eighth in the country at 13 percent. Colgate\u2019s is 59th at 4.9 percent. Brown 4-2<\/p>\n Yale at Cornell<\/strong> Mark: Don’t like the Bulldogs’ chances of beating the Big Red at Lynah on a Saturday night. Cornell 4-2<\/p>\n Princeton at Dartmouth<\/strong> Mark: A breakout game for Dartmouth\u2019s big line of O\u2019Conner-Graber-Foreman is just a matter of time. This could be it. Dartmouth 6-3<\/p>\n Quinnipiac at Harvard<\/strong> Mark: In a meeting of two of the league\u2019s best teams, I like the Bobcats to prevail. Quinnipiac 5-3<\/p>\n Clarkson at Rensselaer<\/strong> Mark: Frank Marotte of Clarkson has a .937 save percentage heading into the weekend. Advantage Golden Knights. Clarkson 4-1<\/p>\n St. Lawrence at Union<\/strong> Mark: Union\u2019s possession numbers are bad. St. Lawrence\u2019s aren\u2019t good. The Dutchmen pull out a home win. Union 3-2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Nate Owen Last week: 8-5-2 Overall: 25-21-4 Mark Divver Last week: 7-6-2 Overall: 23-24-4 It\u2019s a full slate of ECAC action this weekend.

\nNate: The Bulldogs had one good game last weekend and one clunker, while Colgate is 0-1-3 over the last four games. This should be a defensive battle, but Yale has the edge offensively. Yale 3-0<\/p>\n
\nNate: Brown is a team to keep an eye on this season, but it\u2019s tough to pick against the Big Red at home. Cornell 3-2<\/p>\n
\nNate: Neither team has been great defensively this season, but I\u2019ll give a slight edge to the home team. Dartmouth 5-3<\/p>\n
\nNate: This should be a pretty back and forth game, but I think the Crimson have a deeper lineup. Harvard 5-4<\/p>\n
\nNate: The Saints lost a pair of overtime games last weekend. I think they\u2019ll break through with a win against the Engineers. St. Lawrence 2-1<\/p>\n
\nNate: Clarkson looks like one of the top contenders in the league, while Union has struggled to get on track in the first month of the season. Clarkson 5-2<\/p>\n
\nBrown at Colgate<\/strong>
\nNate: The Bears scored seven goals in two games last weekend, while Colgate has 12 in eight games this season. Brown 3-1<\/p>\n
\nNate: Cornell is looking like a powerhouse early in the season. I\u2019m just not sure the Bulldogs will able to keep pace, especially at Lynah Rink. Cornell 3-1<\/p>\n
\nNate: This should be a pretty fast paced game, but I think the Big Green have the slight edge as the home team. Dartmouth 5-4<\/p>\n
\nNate: The Bobcats allowed nine goals in a two-game series at Arizona State last weekend. That doesn\u2019t bode well against a Crimson team that has a lot of offensive weapons. Harvard 4-3<\/p>\n
\nNate: Like I said above, the Golden Knights are one of the top teams in the league. RPI has been solid so far, but the Engineers aren\u2019t at that level yet. Clarkson 3-1<\/p>\n
\nNate: The wins haven\u2019t been coming in bunches for the Saints, but they have been competitive in all but one game this season. St. Lawrence 2-1<\/p>\n
