Season Cornell opened its first post-war season with a rematch against Yale. The Elis had handled the Big Red in last season's finale and the Cornellians were looking to even the score.

The Bulldogs embarrassed Cornell in the game, building a 10–2 lead in the first two periods and then tacking on another 8 markers before time was called.https://cdsun.library.cornell.edu/?a=d&d=CDS19460125.2.46.6&e=-------en-20--1--txt-txIN------- Pucksters Drop Opener to Yale; Face Army Next Cornell Daily Sun January 25, 1946 October 5, 2021 It was the second-worst defeat in the history of the program but the team was able to rebound when they played their second game a week later.
