    Hey, listen I'll be the first to say it..you have to earn your respect in HE. Merrimack has been at the bottom of the league for quite some time and while I resent the comment that we "suck" I don't blame you for saying it.

    What we showed the league last year is that we can compete, and this will be the year that can define the Warriors as a team that does not suck. Your reference to Lowell is a good one and one that should be considered...but not until after this season...until then I think there are other teams (*cough* PC) that are more deserving of that four letter word.

      Hey, I like Dennehy and what he's been doing. I think Merrimack will finish around 5th this year. But I'm glad you acknowledge that Merrimack still has to actually go out and do something in HE before anyone crowns them with anything.

      If you go back and read the discussion that prompted the comments about Merrimack you'll see that they fit in that context - the discussion was about weak programs in a power conference. Until the perception of Merrimack changes in HE they're a good poster child for a weak program in HE. Providence is awful now, but they have some history and tradition and could get back to respectability with a real coach.

          FYI, Brian Gibbons is tied for third in career points among active players per Miami's game notes.

            Among all D-1 players I assume? What about Joe Whitney?

I can't imagine him ever making anyone even feel uncomfortable when he's sober.There are plenty of players in my time covering the team who have looked at me differently or flirted with me or the like. Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

                  What about that 1st PP unit of Kreider/Gibbons/Atkinson up front with J Whitney/S Whitney on D. Like the old days with Farkas, Gionta, Mottau, etc...

                    Absurd that Gibbons wasn't drafted by anyone. He's not that small and built like a truck. He might lead the team in points and pims this year. Should be right there in the Hobey race, too.

                              Oh, but everyone thinks they're going to be awesome this year. Just like Lowell last year.
                              Please point out where "everyone thinks they're going to be awesome this year"? The expectation from most is that they will be better; the highest I've seen anyone picking them is 5th (even you said that!). IIRC, Lowell was projected in the top 3? As an alum, the whole "Merrimack sucks", Merrihack stuff gets old; I think they're making strides away from being a perennial HE doormat and I hope it continues.
                              I think 5th-6th is a rational projection.
