    I do still have them. I thought I replied somewhere, but it might have been the score thread and been overlooked or something.

    Let me know the next time you're in town for a home game and we can get together. I believe the rest of the season I'll be in 16/J/10-11 which is right at the corner of the railing at the top of the steps in that corner.

      Re: RPI III: Revenge of the Seth

      Incredible game at Princeton-best effing power play I have seen at RPI in over 20 years. When we are healthy-we are a team to be reckoned with. Everyone played well. Jen and I sat in the midst of all the Princeton fanatics. Even they had to marvel at the puck control we displayed on special teams. We just need to play like this in every game from now on-the Tute is back!!

        I've said it a million times. Quality, not quantity. Outshot by 66-30, but outscored the opponents 8-2. WHAT.

        Right before Bergin's goal, the ESPNU commentors were complaining that RPI wasn't shooting the puck. I said it out loud. "That's OK, when they shoot it, they'll score." Bing.

          The last goal was as pretty as any I have seen. Polacek has a rifle for a shot and D'Amigo just set him up on the left side perfectly. It was just a thing of beauty to behold. The next 13 games should be a lot of fun.

              BTW, Hobey Baker is a lousy place to televise from. All of the TV angles were either behind the (nonframeless) glass or the netting. Of course I doubt if you guys have any complaints of the view.

                Yeah, it was quite bad. The down-the-ice shot with the heavy netting (was it even netting? Looked almost like metal mesh) was appalling. The Field House truly is a blessing from a TV point of view, and it'll get even better for next season when we have a dedicated camera platform atop the new structure being built in Section 1 and our own production room under Section 17. The Field House staff has been extremely accommodating to us, and we are quite thankful.

                We're going to try to shoot 1/22 and 1/23 against Dartmouth and Harvard; no guarantees on the production quality as the size of the crew may be quite small as those games are still during our break. I'll be there, at the very least.

                Hopefully we'll conserve enough momentum next week against Union to trounce two of this season's dogs at home.

                  Let us not quibble and argue over 'oo killed 'oo...

                  Point being, got out shot 2 to 1, and we out scored them 4 to 1. That gets my star of approval. For years at the Field House we've heard "SHOOT IT" and "SHOOT THE PUCK" and "****IN SHOOT IT ALREADY" ad nauseum. If you're just throwing the puck on net, you're not getting quality chances.

                  It's worth noting that some teams have to do that because they don't have A) the patience and B) the talent required to maintain possession and good defense while working to create those golden opportunities. That's how you score on 1 in 4 shots.
                  Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

                    The best part about it is the location - near the boards - and the fact that Polacek was kinda fading TOWARD the boards when he one-timed it. Freakin' sweet. Great pass. Great shot. Great goal.

                      Congrats to Chase Polacek, with his goal today he took over the top spot in league scoring. Should make for a fun night on Saturday...

                        If I was a Princeton fan not only would I be one of the very few but I would've been annoyed with how the ESPNU broadcasters were throwing compliments all over RPI and couldn't drop to their knees fast enough for both D'Amigo and Polacek.

                        This is... Quite the befuddling situation - I'm not used to hearing these things. Perhaps it's time to start getting used to it.

                          I'd say he's got at least an outside shot for POTW, but if the league wants to continue to sleep on him, I won't argue.

                          York, OTOH, needs to be GOTW or heads need to roll. 66 saves on 68 shots? What's the excuse going to be this week?

                            Dr.D, are you the one who went searching for me? The one time I stepped away from my seat, I was told someone from the forums came looking for me...

                            Wonderful game. Made the trip well worth it. The energy, the enthusiasm from the players, it is palpable.

                            Time to give Union their first league loss this Saturday.

                              In no way am I saying that this was a Mario Lemieux goal-but darn it that is just how he used to set up in that exact same spot and shoot it on the fly and score. Just a great goal.

                                I agree on both counts. Although if they are not selected, it will only serve to add fuel to the RPI Hockey brushfire...
