The Red & White Band is no longer being officially tracked, however BU has it.

I really hadnt gotten to "hero", but if he needs a cape I would be happy to oblige.

I'd probably trip over it.

Home teams won all but one game last weekend. SLU took it to P'ton for the only league road winner. Clarkson outshot Q'pac and by most accounts missed a few good chances in the loss. They'll be ready.

RPI will need to wipe the slate and forget about last weekend. Take it one shift at a time and get the win Friday.

30 points will get you a top 4 and a week off in March. 4 down, 26 to go for RPI. LET'S GO RED!

No love for the Capital District in Sullivan's predictions... Maybe we'll continue to defy expectations.

We wouldn't get love from the media even if we were playing in the National Championship game. We don't need them, though. Let's just play hard, be a tough team to beat, and let the media eat their words.

The longer people sleep on this team the happier I become.

Sleep, *****es, sleep.

It is always easier to pick the home teams. You don't have to do any work or even watch the games.

Wicked-Unless the ECAC is a runaway(and I dont expect that at all-this will be a nail biter for the entire league season), it may be possible to be top 4 with only as few as 26 points. In any case after our dismal performances in league play the past 3 years I think I would settle for anything over half the games won-that would put us at somewhere over 22. Next year however, I would expect even more. I retain the right to upward adjust these estimates depending on how we look this weekend though.

I think Doc is on the bandwagon. This is one of the least pessimistic predictions he's written in a while.

As far as Mr. Sullivan's predictions go, I would have expected at least a tie for one of the games. That's OK. We'll get our revenge when we take it to BU in a few weeks.
