  • Re: RPI 2013/14: Sunny, with a slight chance of drivel

    An article in the Harrisburg Patriot-News previewing Penn State's opener (sorry, but I can't find a link) cites one of the Nittany Lions' defensemen as a standout. Coach Guy Gadowsky said the player is a big body, is very committed defensively, is tough to play against, has showed a lot of strength in the weight room, and has a confidence about him that has been noticed by everybody. Gadowsky also notes that the player has more NCAA experience than anybody else on the team.

    The player in question is former RPI defenseman Patrick Koudys.

    I thought about putting this on the alumni thread, but didn't think it would be quite appropriate to classify a guy who transferred as an alumnus.

        Even though it did not work out for him in Troy-I sure would have liked to have him as part of the defensive corps we have now. He is a big body and you can never have enough healthy defensemen. Wishing him all the success in the world-unless he is playing against us.

          Of course if we still had him, we not have been able to offer a scholarship to someone else.

            I don't know what happened with Koudys in Troy, but I liked him as a player.
            With him or without him, I really like our defensemen this year. I don't think that he would have made that big a difference.
            I too wish him well and will root for him as long as he is not playing RPI.

                  Looks like OGC is using American Crew gel this year. Nice selection SA.

                    There's no doubt he's a good hockey player. He wasn't the right player to benefit the team's system and process that Coach Appert has in place, at least as evidenced by the play time he received down the stretch. The D players we have so far benefit the team very well, as we saw by a second place regular season finish last year.

                        No wonder SethAppert'sHair has such a different aura.

                          I also enjoyed taking with Jimmy when Pat was in DC Arlington for the Caps' camp two years ago.

                            ...it was tough to here the questions. Anyone notice the Coach on the far left in the very beginning and again @ the 2min. mark

                                A minor disappointment with the schedule. Three games in the Boston metro area in one month? It's too bad the Harvard game isn't later in the season. Hard to justify three trips to Boston so close together. (by "justify" I don't mean to myself, I mean ....)
