Received no such email despite being a season ticket holder since 1977. Have to wonder just who did receive it based on what criteria and it what order. Obviously, seniority/longevity does not appear to be one of the qualifying criteria. Guessing qualifying criteria includes the obvious like students, staff, alumni and maybe the far more cynical how much money do you give them annually (or more often).""Ralph is the Chuck Norris of this board.

Waite mentions that the price of $200 is only for 11 ECAC games. What he forgot was that RPI charges for 3 playoff games (and for the Union game at the TU Center, which probably won’t be played this year). So 14 games would cost about $14 per game. What they didn’t mention was the charge for parking. Maybe we’ll get it for free this year (yeah, right!).
And yes, I did receive the same email today.

I'm a long time STH of the same vintage as well ...but have also donated $$$ in other ways. I don't have any idea who has/hasn't rec'd the message. (Oddly enough, I typically don't receive these types of messages from RPI ....while my HFH colleagues in our loose coalition always do !)
However, you get the season ticket communication as, apparently, others have too but I get squat. Now what could cause that? As suggested earlier, could it be side contributions? Was the communication limited to season ticket holders buying multiple season tickets (I only buy one)?
Remember, with current big brother mandates in place, a single season ticket would actually occupy a dozen SQUARE FEET of isolation space. Lose that much space for a couple of hundred bucks? Were season ticket holders who only purchase one ticket deemed as no longer having any "value" in the present reality?
Will be interesting to see how this all eventually plays out, especially if posters on this board keep sharing information.

In that message which indicated that the ECAC season would be 20 games long, 10 being at home, it also said that all playoff games would be single games, no best of 3.

So if the ECAC season is going to be 20 games long, 10 being at home and 10 on the road, which of the other 11 ECAC teams is RPI not going to play twice?
A later post said that this was not yet approved.

I agree the uncertainty is making lots of players anxious. Some already decided to forego this college season and go pro as they sense a better likelihood they will play at all this season at that level. I imagine the leagues and universities will bend the rules to make sure players will get all the eligibility they are entitled to and perhaps extend the age by which recruits have to come to campus. I am not as worried as some the players currently on the roster will leave early. It is a big risk for players who have not demonstrated pro level skill yet with one or two exceptions.
