The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
I wouldn’t be too concerned about it. We’ve seen players’ NZ grades bounce about (in both directions) as they age. In this case a Neutral Zone scout has probably seen him a few times and gave a 3.5. Eric Lang, who lives in Avon and is involved with the Nor’easter program (via his son) where...
Four decommitting at the same time sounds as if the coaches did a review of the current status of the roster, future needs, and the new recruiting playing field and decided that those four no longer fit. Unless they each have the same advisors it would be incredibly unusual for four to draw the...
Perhaps not the most exciting game, but it provided a fine win last night before another friends and family crowd at the field house. As I said in the game thread just before the third period, that’s exactly the sort of game we need to play in order to have a chance of success with this roster...
Add Klassek, who has been impressive, plus Lemieux and Hilditch, who have shown flashes and I expect to develop into solid D1 defensemen, and we could have an extremely strong class on the back line. It may be a bit like a large animal being digested by a boa constrictor (bulge moving through...
I know the sherpa part was a joke, but it added to a stream of complaints about parking, drinking, etc. I know the modern fan expects more in the way of convenience than was the norm, especially with the games now on TV, but our primary problem is winning games. We're 1-6 at home, but coming...
C'mon, it's not that bad. If someone has legitimate mobility issues then the hills in front or back are obviously off limits. But I've parked on Peoples in front of Samaritan or the park probably 100s of times since I graduated and I still don't have a problem with it despite weighing...
Those disasters remind me of the worst blowout I ever attended. Late in the 85-86 season (about 11 months after winning the NC in Detroit), we were beaten 11-0 by Harvard in Brighton. I was there with a Harvard graduate friend and all I could do was grin and bear it while pointing out we were...
True enough, but even buzz might not be enough. The weekend’s most shocking attendance figure wasn’t our Friday night total. It was the 1,960 at the Whale to see Yale’s upset of 5th-ranked Quinnipiac. That’s about 55% of capacity. While Yale has been terrible in recent years, spoiled Q fans...
Great win today! The team really needed it and, quite frankly, I really needed it. Friday night was arguably my lowest moment in 50 seasons of watching RPI hockey (as a local I attended my first game 2 years before I enrolled). It wasn't the game per se, although I thought it was an OK effort...
As one that really dislikes the OT figure skating exhibition, I take a little satisfaction in watching the puck control at all costs strategy - in this case a 150 foot backpass to the goalie - blow up on a team.
I think the decline of RPI hockey began the day they announced the ECAV project. It was a massive sports focused project that only marginally touched on the school’s only major sport. The new locker rooms were nice but other than that the only significant HFH changes were a new throne room for...
