SPENGLER CUP MEDALISTS
- Sophomore forward Chris Pelosi earned a runner-up medal at the 2025 Spengler Cup over the holiday break, with the 97th edition of the tournament being held in Davos, Switzerland.
- After rallying but falling a goal short against Hockey Canada, the US Collegiate Selects went on a run of 131:15 of not trailing, defeating host HC Davos and Sparta Prague to go on a magical run to the final, only to see a 3-3 tie going into the third turn into a 6-3 victory for the host Davos to claim its record-setting 17th trophy.
- Pelosi made two appearances in the tournament, playing 23 minutes and finishing with an even plus-minus and was part of a squad that took the country and European hockey world by storm.
WYTTER WYTTER
- The first-year forward has exploded on to the nation's radar, recording 25 points in the first half of the season, totaling nine goals and 16 assists in his first 18 games of college hockey.
- He joined fellow Bobcat Sam Anas as the only two ECAC first-years since at least 2002-03 to record 25 points before the holiday break and they are two of four skaters to cross the 20-point mark, with Matt Carey (SLU) and Daniel Carr (Union) being the others.
- He restarts the season one point behind Maine's Justin Poirier on the national freshman scoring list, with 25 points and is tied with North Dakota's Cole Reschny for the national lead in assists amongst college rookies.
VENI VIDI VICI
- First-year forward Markus Vidicek ran the nation's longest goalscoring streak up until one game before the holiday break, finding twine in six consecutive contests before the team was held without a goal against Union on Dec. 6.
- Two of the six came on the power play, including a game-tying goal with the extra skater against Stonehill on Saturday afternoon en route to the 3-2 victory.
- His eight goals since the streak's start on Nov. 15 are tied for third-most in the country with Dartmouth's Hayden Stavroff. Overall, he leads the team with 11 goals and is fourth on the ECAC leaderboard in that department.
BACKING THE BANK
- The Bobcats are off to another unbeaten start at M&T Bank Arena, going 6-0-2 on home ice in their first eight outings with wins over Maine, Boston University, Clarkson and St. Lawrence, Holy Cross and Stonehill.
- They have played the most home games this season (eight) without a loss.
- Since 2020-21, the Bobcats are second in scoring defense (1.8), third in scoring offense (4.1), first in wins (78) and third in losses (16) on home ice.
