I understand and I agree with you. However, as much as I would like to, I am unable to substantiate the credibility of my information by providing names or locations.....keeping me credible with my sources.

I may have to get FD to substantiate what I just said!!!!

You may have to get FD to explain what you just said.

FOX23 just tweeted that Merriam is out for exhibition game and possibly Mankato series as well....uh oh.

So the men's and women's hockey teams are starting the season with a combined total of zero minutes of college experience in goal.

Knowlton denying all Hockey East interest but IMO wouldn't expect him to admit it if they were showing interest at this time.

And peter denied knowing jesus 3 times before the cock crowed.

Everyone seems to be talking about who RPI's league opponents might be two years from now.

Does anyone know anything about this Acadia team RPI's supposed to play this Saturday?

He heard it, but cannot remember where or from whom.

I suppose if I am somewhat of a connoisseur of complex vocabulary, I should be able to provide sufficient explanation to those who do not understand.

Had the misfortune of catching the late news on Ch. 13 where Rodger Wyland proceeded to inform the world not once, but twice that Bryce "Merriman" was the heir apparent in net for RPI. "Rodge" is picking right up where he left off last year...he's nothing if not consistently weak.

RPI & ND to HE?

http://redskinwarriors.com/

Redskin Warriors has received an unconfirmed report that Notre Dame and RPI are moving to Hockey East in 2013.

Our source with credible access to the ongoing talks tells us the Irish will take their talents east, and along with the Engineers of RPI will become the 11th and 12th members respectively, of Hockey East. If true, it could also signal Notre Dame’s intent to join the ACC for all other sports as the rest of the collegiate athletic world undergoes the same sort of seismic shift as hockey. And, for certain it’s a coup for Hockey East to land the last remaining free agent gem in the Fighting Irish.

For Notre Dame, this move makes sense. They would become conference mates with longtime rival, and Catholic college brethren, Boston College as well as Providence and Merrimack who also don the cloth.

For RPI, well, what an opportunity. They will be reunited with former ECAC rivals and this ties nicely to their reemergence on the college hockey scene as young head coach Seth Appert has the Engineers headed in the right direction. Their travel costs won’t rise and their sense of prestige and strength of schedule will certainly improve.

In the meantime, we’ll try to gain confirmation and will update this story as we can.

ADVICE TO ENGINEERS: GO 'EAST,' YOUNG MEN, GO 'EAST'



ECAC RIGHT FIT FOR RPI SCHOOL TO ANNOUNCE REJECTION OF HOCKEY EAST
ECAC STILL HOME TO RPI



It's too bad that the TU archives only go back to March 1986. I can only find articles about the aftermath of RPI not choosing the HE in 1984:
SKATING ON THIN ICEWITH ACADEMIC STANDARDS UP, RECRUITING DOWN, RPI HOCKEY PROGRAMZEROS IN ON MEDIOCRITY
ECAC, HOCKEY EAST: A SPLIT ON THE MEND?
