The previous thread closed in the nick of time for the new season. 
I forgot who suggested this title originally.

You're welcome, RB.
Hopefully good reports come from the scrimmage. I'll be at the exhibition, and look forward to it.Comment

Re: RPI 2010-11: Houston, We've had a Facelift!
Does anyone have very strong feelings about how long the team will take to hit it's rhythm? I have no evidence and I've not seen the boys skate, but I have a very good feeling that they will be in good form early on...Comment

Re: RPI 2010-11: Houston, We've had a Facelift!
Typically our team is strong out of the blocks. I think the bigger question would be how long we are able to hold the rhythm throughout the season.Originally posted by babo View PostComment

That has been my observation also. I wonder why it seems to work that way.Originally posted by FlagDUDE08 View PostComment

Re: RPI 2010-11: Houston, We've had a Facelift!
I can see a 5-1 record before Lake Placid OR 3-3, with Bentley & Niagra being the spoilers. I've only been following RPI hockey for 5yrs (6 this yr) & it's easily noticeable how we tend to play down to the competition. Hopefully this yr. will be different. I sense a lot of external incentives for this team; the push for Chase, multiple NHL scouts at games, doing it w/o JD'A & BP. I can also attest to the leadership of JFK & "Brut" they showed while practice was open at the Knick. I was winded just watching! Watching even K-Mac, Murley, Cavosie, Eisenman bent over,hands on knees along with the current team after a grueling drill & the Capt. pushing them to the next drill. I believe anything short of AC will be considered a losing season for this group of players.Originally posted by babo View PostBrandon Pirri: Turk would give it to Jagr. That's awesome!

Does that mean you're expecting a sweep of Colorado College on the road, or a split at CC and a victory over RIT?Originally posted by turk181 View PostComment

Re: RPI 2010-11: Houston, We've had a Facelift!
Exactly-too many years have started out well only to collapse either at the RPI Invitational Tournament or just after it. Just a feeling though that this year will be different-I think we have too much depth to fall apart. I felt this all along which is why we bought our AC tickets the first day they became available.Originally posted by FlagDUDE08 View PostTake the shortest distance to the puck and arrive in ill humorComment

Re: RPI 2010-11: Houston, We've had a Facelift!
Unless RIT has lost an awful lot from their Frozen Four team of last year, I have a hard time believing RPI has improved enough to be able to beat them.Originally posted by turk181 View Post
I'd like to be optimistic, but I just can't see RPI going 5-1 through this set of opponents.Comment

A) They did.Originally posted by Waite21 View Post
B) Do you know how many teams they beat outside of Atlantic Hockey and outside of the Times Union Center that one weekend? Zero.Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.Comment
