The viewing experience between the ‘24-‘25 and ‘23-‘24 teams is indescribable

Younger, faster, better forechecking, better passing, more disciplined. And Tung is pretty good. Other than that...

Great final 55 tonight. Really impressive.

I would also credit a great hire in Nick Peruzzi for this transformation as well…

Nice work, boys. Now it's HE time.

Harvard may now be 3-7-2, but they have had some impressive games this year - a 2-2 tie with #3 BU, a split with top 20 Quinnipiac (3-0 win and a 3-2 loss) and a 3-2 shootout loss to #2 Cornell. Their only other loss by more than 2 goals this year was to Notre Dame (5-2 in Belfast, Northern Ireland in a tournament there). So unless the Crimson was decimated by injuries or missing key players for some other reason, last night's game (especially the last 55 minutes or so - 7-1 UConn advantage) has to be considered a really good win.

100 percent agree. There was some massive chemistry issues and buy in from last year since the “talent” said it should have been the opposite. I will take the grittiness of this team any day. Last years team was as difficult a watch since the Cav regime started.

The thing I noticed seeing them in person earlier is this team is MUCH faster. I thought Tattle and Muldowney were the fastest guys we had last year. that 8-9-10 line was pretty good. The rest were plodders.
