Due to a positive COVID-19 test result within the St. Lawrence men’s hockey Tier 1 personnel on Sunday afternoon, and in accordance with New York State and NCAA quarantine guidelines, the team will not be able to accept the ECAC Hockey automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
One of the oddest seasons in ECAC Hockey history ended with one of the most unlikely league champions.
Third-seeded St. Lawrence beat No. 1 Quinnipiac 3-2 in overtime Saturday at the Frank Perrotti Jr. Arena to win the ECAC Hockey championship and advance to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2007.
For the most part, the four ECAC Hockey teams playing this year made it through the season unscathed.
But news that Clarkson was cancelling its season last week after some team members violated the school’s COVID-19 policies brought back flashbacks to last March, when teams started to drop out of the league tournament before the entire hockey season was eventually canceled.
However, that wasn’t the case this season, as the three remaining teams are set to compete in the abbreviated ECAC Hockey playoffs starting Thursday.
The NHL’s Columbus Blue Jackets announced Sunday that they have signed Clarkson junior captain Josh Dunne to a two-year, entry-level contract.
ECAC Hockey has announced a change in its men’s postseason schedule, as Clarkson’s 2021 season has concluded.
In a vague post Wednesday evening on the Clarkson athletics website, both the Golden Knights men’s and women’s teams are apparently done with the current college hockey season.
The St. Lawrence men’s hockey team’s four games with Clarkson scheduled for this weekend and next week have been canceled due to a pause in team activities due to COVID-19 protocols.
Going nearly three weeks without a game in the stretch run of the season usually isn’t ideal for most teams, but it appears to be working out well for Clarkson.
