University Cup 2025

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Crazy the women have a 5th place game and consolation rounds..
If men’s hockey had this , I predict someone would die eventually
 
I have to say us guys out east need to stop disrespecting the OUA….
Absolutely…especially in a single elimination situation. The gap between the OUA and the other conferences has shrunk considerably the last 3-4 years.

UNB’s “best team ever” played Ottawa last year, and granted it was early in the pre-season, it was a one goal game.
 
Very wild - 12 periods of hockey on day 1 and 2 upset winners (TMU likely more than not would have considered them an underdog against MRU and Ottawa obviously a massive underdog against UNB).
 
Moncton is winning to avenge new brunswick
Every time I go to Moncton I debate buying an Aigles hat because I have an absurd hat collection … I never do because I decide it’s sacrilegious….

Maybe I should have , I could have worn it for 3 days!

Someone teach me the lyrics to that amazing “fight song” they play after the anthem !

Women’s game is at a much more suitable facility .

I was looking at rinks around Ottawa to see what would be more suitable but everything in Ottawa proper is far too big or small, some nice Junior.A level facilities 30-45 mins out of town.
I still don't understand why USports insists on these larger venues for UCup. The women's tournament is at a Jr B facility (although the GOJHL definitely functions like a Jr A league), and although the rink in Elmira is a 20-ish min drive from Waterloo's campus, the atmosphere was outstanding last night. Turns out, a thousand people in a 1300-seat rink sound better than they do in a 5000-seat rink. Who knew?

Also...doesn't hurt that the tournament pass is about 50% cheaper...
