    Of course you are correct. I dind't want to burst their bubble.

He is a warrior and a scapper. Mark is going to be a good power forward for us, for years to come. I thought the D played well and especially the combo of Patty K and Dolan...I think those guys were plus 2 last night. The second unit PP was awesome and whipped the puck around creating chances.
      Too funny - I absolutely agree....Cullen played possessed last night. I mentioned to my youngest even just watching the warm ups. He wanted it. I'm so glad to see him play so well. Also have to say that McGowan has quietly continued to progress and just continues to play better each game. He clearly has SA's support as he was a starter last night too. Very glad to see the boys having fun and playing together and people stepping up all over. See you all there tonight.....keep the faith !!

        I agree with the comments about McGowan as well. He was really active in the corners last night, let's keep it going tonight. Big game, can really get back into the pack if all goes well.

            I will save my good friend AspyDad some time and just go right into it. Horrible calls by the refs last night, cannot wait to get out of this league and into hockey east, it's clear who is running this league not Hagwell but Stewart, our coach is still great, yes I still look like George Clooney and troyboy looks like Tom Cruise. No, I am not raising taxes in the land of section 9 this year.....oh wait sorry got off track a bit.

            Anyways, tough way to see a 3 game winning streak end and it doesnt get much better next weekend. If we play the way we did against SLU and for times last night against Clarkson, things can end up in our favor. Looking for 2 hard fought battles and some bounces go our way.
            Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

                Can't complain too much about last night's effort. Looked like a soft goal on the first one, but we came back from a two goal deficit, and were in a position to win. The winning goal was a perfect shot. Stuff happens.
                If we continue to play like we did this weekend, we will win our share of games.
                Next weekend, Cornell on national tv and the freakout. We should be up for both games, and while Cornell and Colgate are near the top of the league, both can be beat.

                    So whatever happened to this whole thing about calling embellishments? Or does that not apply to the ECAC?

                    Mind you, this is NOT why we lost AT ALL, but I'd kind of like to know, especially considering an upcoming game...

                      Two great efforts this weekend, sadly we could not pull out the Clarkson game, we had great chances late in the game, thought our goaltending could have been tighter, but still fund to watch.
                      It seems like boarding is going to be called anytime someone is hit into the boards and elects to lie down like they were shot.
                      Also noticed that we have not seen Rambo lately...does anyone know if he is hurt or is his lack of speed keeping him out of the lineup.

                          Team wins three games. No peep.
                          Loses one. Look who's here.

                            Some thoughts from the weekend in my point of view:
                            * Overall best 120 minutes of hockey ive seen from this team in some time
                            *Credit to SA, he was able to keep the team playing with confidence and whatever was said in that timeout against SLU (no matter why it was called) seemed to do the trick,
                            *Great weekend for Patty Cullen,Wasn't just out there trying, he was a true factor and a threat every shift
                            *McGowan and Tinordi have been playing some real good hockey as of late
                            *The way we played against Clarkson was deserving of the W, great game all around regardless of the outcome and a great crowd at HFH
                            Despite the record im just as proud to be a RPI hockeyfan today as i have ever been and the team is beginning to play with confidence and seem proud to pull on that RPI jersey. Big weekend coming up at home against 2 quality opponents, play like we have as of late with a few quality opponents and we have a shot at some points this weekend and a shot to keep reeling in the rest of the ECAC, Lets go Red!!

                              Very fair statements-I had high hopes for McGowan and Tinordi before they ever came to Troy. They are finally showing what I thought they might. You could not be more right though about next weekend. This may be the HUGE weekend of the season. A good 120 minutes and we may have something.

                                Doc, I was at Friday's game, and McGowan, Tinordi, O'Grady, Lee and Cullen all played better than I have ever seen them.
                                The only problem, was that Laliberte and Haggerty were almost invisible. If we ever get everyone going at the same time, we will be a tough beat.
