Re: RPI 2010-2011 VI- Red Dead Redemption

Someone needs to pass on the pertinent info and make sure Dartmouth is fully aware that they have absolutely nothing to play for tomorrow... (said only somewhat in jest)

After reading the entire thread the same thing just crossed my mind.

Once again, I will be rooting for Yale, and let the seeds fall where they may.
The way this season ended, getting into the tournament is gravy. I would love to see the seniors on this RPI team get their chance at the NCAA tournament. They turned the adversity of loosing their two most talented players to the pros into the best Engineer season in a decade. Cheers to them, and

Lets go Blue!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there any scenario where Yale loses their number 1 seed? I mean do they really have anything to play for today against Conell? I hope so-but it sure seems like Cornell has everything to play for and Yale just has to show up.

That is an interesting question. Has Yale ever won the ECAC tournament?

They announced today's attendance at 3,356. Of course that's sold tickets, not butts in seats. Likely also includes all the concession workers, parking attendants, administrative staff, and people who peered in the door while walking down the street.

They also counted all the people on the boardwalk that Paul Stewart spoke to and told that he was an NHL Player/NHL ref/"Feola did Olympics"/ECAC refs are "excellent"

I will say this for him, he did a much better job in the booth than he does as supervisor of officials.
I also thought it was interesting when he gave the officials lattitude on whether to call a penalty or not. I guess they are in control of the game.

They have, but you have to go all the way back to... 2009.

No. They clinched the #1 overall seed last night. Yale does have hardware to play for, though.

I sure hope that is reason enough to give 100%. Maybe i am in the minority but if i were the coach-I might rest a couple guys for the following week's festivities which mean a whole lot more to me.

With a team full of seniors who have a chance to finish with 2 Cleary Cups, 2 ECAC Championships, and 3 NCAA appearances, I have a feeling not many of our boys are going to be resting. Although you won't see Mason (didn't play yesterday) or Anderson (has been out since early in season but is supposedly close to returning).

As I mentioned-The only thing up for grabs is the ECAC championship-your other stats remain the same-they will still have 3 NCAA appearances even if they stay in the locker room. I would of course want them coming out with fire.

That and a thread title that could equally well refer to another team has me concerned, but the chips will fall as they may.

Just goes to show how much I pay attention to Yale hockey. Until this weekend, they just didn't mean that much to me.
Today, I am a die hard Yale fan. (Just for the day).

Re: RPI 2010-2011 VI- Red Dead Redemption

the suspense is killing me! All season and it comes down to a few hours today on whether or not the seniors get their chance at the NCAA tourny. Here's hoping next year the boys control their own destiny....


Where is the Captial District RPI faithful watching the ECAC championship game tonight?
