A Hockey Player from Cornell

Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I was just watching the World Junior Hockey Championships on TV and there was a defenseman on Team Canada that is at Cornell now.</p>

<p>Anybody know Sasha Pokulok?</p>

He became the first Cornell player ever taken in the first round of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft when he was selected with the 14th overall pick by the Washington Capitals.

<p>cornell hockey rox! yeah! woohoo! thats right you better believe it, we DOMINATE</p>

3

<p>harvard sux at hockey am i rite?</p>

4

<p>I'm suprised he is the first Cornell player taken in the first round. I thought there would have been more...</p>

<p>i must confess im from Buffalo, NY home of the Sabres and I have never been to a hockey game. I hope to redeem myself when i go to Cornell and go to the hockey games, I'm really excited because when i visited Cornell in the fall everybody was pumped for hockey. It would be a mortal sin if I or everyone else didn't check out a game</p>

6

<p>I'm from Pittsburgh... I would go to a Pens game, but we just lose anyway... Or we are up for the first two periods, then we lose... same thing with the Pirates... lol...</p>

7

<p>well Cornell destroys Harvard at hockey if that's what you are talking about</p>

8

<p>Yeah, but you get to see Crosby, the rookie phenom! It'd be worth it just to see Crosby and Lemieux</p>

9

<p>... i need to read up on hockey lol, then ill destroy my friends in fantasy NHL</p>

10

<p>Yeh, the Kid is our star player, but there are what 5 other people on the ice and well you do the math lol... and Mario is always getting hurt lol...</p>

11

<p>Gonchar, Tarnstrom, Malone, Recchi, LeClair, Palffy are pretty solid players too.</p>

<p>I think their problem is their lack of chemistry and their goaltending (or lack thereof). </p>

<p>Thibault is absolutely terrible. Fleury is awesome, but he's still too young.</p>

12

<p>Harvard definetly doesn't suck at hockey, but Cornell usually generates better NHL players. i.e. Joe Neuendyck</p>

13

<p>yeah! Harvard doesnt have Neuendyck! (is it pronounced nooendyke or nooendick?)</p>

14

<p>its nooendyke</p>

15

<p>dyke as in dike right?</p>

16

<p>yep...i hate how i need at least 10 characters</p>

17

<p>lol yah when i have that problem i just put (blahblah)</p>

18

<p>Joe Nieuwendyk is awesome. He plays for the Florida Panthers now but he's injured right now.</p>

19

<p>Is it hard to get tickets to hockey? Can I get them in advance or only by waiting on line the day of the game? What about season tickets - are they hard to get? Is there a waiting list?</p>

<p>don't bust on ma fleury, if he had one solid defensemen and i don't mean ryan whitney or gonchar or 'tricky dick' he'd be an all star this year, he has 4 40+ save performances that he lost by 1 goal</p>
