          strongly disagree....he's the #1 Dman on our depth chart and most likely #1 on any team in this league...arguably one of the top 5 defensemen in the country last year...not that anybody made this comparison but this is a whole different situation than Brutlag....your talking about an all ECACHL and All Amerian player at his position...if your going to expeirment He's not the guy to do it with...in my opinion. I might try putting the the BRO @ forward to get him some PT....picture him as a power forward...YIKES !!!!!!!!!!!!

            I'll be there! Really looking forward to some non-trap, live hockey this weekend.

              I'm with Appert on this. When he's saying that we need to turn to the upperclassmen, that doesn't mean that we need Smith, Rabbani, Burgdoerfer, and CJ to score goals, it means we need them to provide leadership, work hard on the boards, and bring their work ethic with them. Without that leadership, you can ask whatever you want from the freshmen, you're not going to get it if they don't get to see the leadership being exhibited by the juniors and seniors.

              I try and avoid commenting on the actual play of the team when I don't see them play. I can presume that some changes need to be made, but I haven't seen them play often enough to say that it needs to happen. I was just re-stating EHF's points because FD08 seems to be having some serious comprehension issues recently.

              He has the shot for a forward, but I think he has the defensive capability to be a defenseman. Yes, you have to backcheck and play defense as a forward, but it seems like a waste of his skills to be used exclusively as a forward.

              I'm going, but with my parents, so I will probably not be joining in any extracurricular celebrations.

              Sadly, most writers / voters consider him to be such a stellar defenseman because of the offensive numbers that he puts up. Why not make him a forward and really utilize those offensive capabilities? Not that I agree with that line of thinking, but it's out there.

                You won't see the trap because they don't have a neutral zone!

                  Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.
                  Enjoy the day and your families. That is what it is all about.

                    Happy Thanksgiving!

                    Sad that there is no RPI Tourney this year.

                      Truly sad about not having a Holiday tournament this year-but I always preferred it being held in late December. But in the old days we were the only tournament around and could get great talented teams to Troy. I fear we have seen the last of any tournament held in Troy.

                        I too preferred it in December, but I think that it could be back when several leagues will be playing fewer games in a couple of years.

                          I am guessing that there are very few of the posters on here who can remember the 3 day tournaments back in the old days. It was a very special time.

                            I am too - this is the first year I've been in Troy for Thanksgiving and I would've loved the chance to see the tournament. Guess it wasn't meant to be.

                              Just another step in the downgrading of the tourney. To think that very first one had eight teams with four games a day. (And I don't remember that. )

                                To the Americans, Happy Thanksgiving!

                                To all others, good day.

                                Is it time for hockey yet?
