The slate has been wiped clean by the snow that is already starting to pile up here in Brewster, and tomorrow is looking iffy, as well. Clarkstown and North Rockland have already postponed. I’ll be checking my email during the day and will update the list if we get any dates for makeups or further cancellations.
Stay off the roads. Stay off the ponds.
And if you have some down time, replay the hockey chat or check out the gallery of photos from last night’s Suffern-Don Bosco game. The pregame ceremony was pretty emotional. The game, not so much.

Umm Mike – It’s February. See the home page..
He’s under the influence of coffee and Jameson…It’s a Hemingway thing.. trying to make us think.
In addition to the cancellations Mike listed, the Pelham trip to Massena is cancelled as we’ll.
Who’s idea was it to schedule league games this late in the season? Mamk has a league game tonight and tomorrow. Both probably postponed. Not smart. Very poor foresight. Get the league games in before February… that would make a lot more sense.
LOL, rjmkrm and Ta-Da all over Mike, one mistake and BAMMO!!!!!
Its going to be a boring weekend…
Boring? All that fun snow shoveling? It’ll be a blast!!!!
I know people were curious as to who will finish where. Assuming that Rye, Pelham, and Greeley win their remaining games other than the Rye-Pelham game and don’t schedule any additional games…
JJ ends up with the 1 seed
The winner of the Rye/Pelham game will finish 2nd
Greeley finishes 3rd
The loser of the Rye/Pelgam game will finish 4th
Scarsdale finishes 5th
So for all of you curious out there…Rye and Pelham end up on opposite sides of the bracket this year.
I have a heated driveway
Mike, just watched a replay of your chat. I think white plains driftet had the question of the year. Clean the bathroom at ebersol with your tounge or drive cross crounty with a certain new ro parent with no radio. This should br the poll question of the week. Sign me up for bathroom cleaning. That guy lurks the rinks to give his one sided opinion
Rye better start getting their heads into and play better in EVERY remaining game, otherwise it won’t matter which side of the bracket they’re on vs Pelham.
Ta-Da…. we all have heated driveways in Larchmont/Mamaroneck…. we just can’t stop winning.
BTW, that RTH beating Rye should be a bigger story. That to me is the biggest upset all year so far. Rye is crashing big time. Without Benicasa, Rye is in trouble. Everyone else is getting healthier… Rye is not. Bad timing.
Who knows though. The new season is right around the corner.
rjmkrm
Um, I have no witty comeback for that blooper, so I made a correction guaranteed to melt the snow.
How come the Greeley’s stats for the Yorktown game didn’t count on the top (goals,points,assists for the year) even though they are on the bottom of the page?
MAMARONECK VS SLEEPY RESCHEDULED TO TUESDAY AT ICE HUTCH 5:10PM
hey mike,
if RTH beats RCDS will they move up to the 3 or 4 seed in D1 or does this game have no implications?
The new ro- ETB game is at 6:30 so how can a game finish in an hour.
Talking about points when will they be updated from the past week
My question above was directed to CLIFF
are teams penalized in the seeding/points system for playing less than 20 games
so if mamo plays at 510 how will they play the 815 game they have?
ralph
The game counts in seeding equation, RCDS has friends status, which means it’s considered a comparable program to those in Section 1 outside of recruiting.
will we be penalized for not playing 20 games in the seeding
No. 20 is just the max amount of regular season games you can play.
but if your doing the seeding, and one team has played 20 games and the other has played 18, besides the fact that the team who has played 20 games has more opportunity for wins, is the team with 18 at a disadvantage, when they add up the points is it cumulative, or is it an average, so you dont get an advantage by playing more games?
Check the playoff index at the bottom of Cliff’s standings page
http://www.section1hockey.com/standings.html
The index is an average. Not negatively affected by playing 18
Pelham only suffers by not having played and (and beaten) good teams.
If they play 18 and have a higher index, they get the higher seed.
Cliff- can you answer my question.
G-
Not sure if you are aware, but there was a blizzard outside last night. Also, sometimes I have other things going on where I am not checking the blog every 30 minutes on a rare Friday night that I get to spend with my wife & kids instead of everyone else’s kids at the rink. No need to ask a question and then pester me about it every couple of hours. If you are really that worried about something on the website, feel free to contact me through the website. Chances are I am checking my own website more often than I am checking The Journal News’ website.
As far as your question goes, it was an error, that has now been corrected.
Oh Snap!!! Cliff with a verbal beatdown of the newbie G. I have not seen a shout down like that since Mike Francessa…. well actually Francessa does it every hour to his callers. He makes millions shouting down the callers.
Looks like Cliffy got stuck shoveling the snow by himself…
Looks like someone posted a video about what it’s like to support ETB hockey …
Or maybe what happens when you mess with Cliff

Cliffy needs a snow thrower to put him in a better mood. Or a heated driveway like everyone else in Larchmont/Mamaronenck. Ta-Da knows what I’m talking about.
Mike, I would like to retract my last post based on Neds video of Cliffs problem solving skills.
I hear ya RF!
Ned, that was very funny.
It looked surprisingly similar to what happens at the Clavin house on a Friday night when Cliff isn’t checking the LoHud website every 30 minutes or working a hockey game at Sporto.
