    Union College hockey 2025-26 thread

    Well said TK....better than I expressed it. The school is fighting for its existence and some folks don't like the wallpaper in the bathroom LOL. I'm excited for the hockey teams and to see live action tonight for the women's home opener at the barn !

    Union College hockey 2025-26 thread

    I've been inside and have tickets to the RPI-Union tilt... which were not hard to come by BTW (for those critical of the size of the joint.) You don't seem to realize what a miracle Union having a new rink really is. Celebrate it !! Schools like Union are an endangered species in the...

    LeChase built it on a design build contract IIRC. They were the also contractor for Gate's '65 rink, but Sasaki was the designer for that.

    Union College hockey 2025-26 thread

    Correct on all counts. Not to mention that in today's money, SHU's rink is likely approaching $100mil budget. If the fan base isn't there to fill seats, then it makes ZERO sense to build them. Period.

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    At least at the moment, the band cannot be located behind the net as this is where the band-aid /temporary ice making equipment is located due to the failure of components of HFH's main refrigeration system. Reports are this issue will be rectified as part of a project (boards, glass and...

    RPI Recruit Thread 2025-2026

    You are exactly right. The general rule of thumb from a higher ed business perspective, It's less expensive to help the student (if you can) and keep them enrolled rather than sending them home and then trying to fill that seat. It also often times leads to a student who figures things out...

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    It's not like they have a choice....they've been limping along on a failed system for several years now. Another year of soft, milky ice is what we're left with. I'll pass on calling dead equipment replacement "renovations" ..ha ha... In listening to the CHN interview, Phase I work will...

    RPI Recruit Thread 2025-2026

    I mentioned that it was different recruiting scenario back then. The art of scouting at any level is trying to determine where a kid is on his development arc. Time will tell how good our coaches are at it.

    RPI Recruit Thread 2025-2026

    Some guy named Pirri put up nearly 150 pts in 3 seasons in the OJHL.... and then had a 43pt. campaign the following year at RPI.. LOL (Admittedly, recruiting was different then.)

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    I'm sure the coaches are still trying to remember names, much less name captains LOL. Given the scarcity of returning upperclassmen, I'll take a WAG and say Goffredo and Matta.

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    It's possible/likely that the sweaters were already locked into the contract with UA and had them committed to whatever BU-esque home sweater design we were saddled with last year. I do stand by my opinion that the road reds are better than the home whites. But as others have said, I don't...

    No news whatsoever. I didn't get there until about 6:15 and they were in the middle of the player intros (yes, the pizza was all gone.LOL) They did the club team first, then the women, then the men. Then the open skate. No sign of the Prez or Bowers.

    A few familiar faces joining the coaching corps at Troy Youth Hockey (for you non-Facebookers, its Murley and Bourbonnais). https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1404586975006772&set=a.456353489830130

    It does closely resemble Colgate's interior...with a few more bathrooms and a bar. I don't believe it was the same architect, but it was the same contractor (LeChase). Sasaki designed Gate's '65 rink -- and in my view, is a master class in melding modern design into the existing campus...

    It's starting to feel a bit more real with the ticket party tomorrow....which I am planning on attending. I also bought tickets for the Union game at Mohawk Harbor....looking forward to seeing their new barn.
