Re: UNH Hockey: Treading Water or Trending Upward
At least I got an "occasionally amusing" out of you here. "Infantile" is a little harsh, but hey - to each their own. The adults in the room should be able to handle the commentary (and sometimes criticism) implicit in their tags. I think I try to stop short of players most of the time, but I'm sure I've gone over that line a few times in the past. I did admittedly chuckle at VSS though. I'm not sure why you'd deem it "inappropriate" but again, you're entitled to your opinion and viewpoint, Mr. Scarano.
Have to agree 100% with you, the UConn weekend was a proverbial kick in the shorts. Even a split, and look where UNH would be right now. But that's over and done with, and all we can do now is look ahead and hope the 'Cats build on things against BU, who will be coming off playing Northeastern in the Beanpot Finals, and should be ripe for a letdown. Ditto NU next weekend, against whomever.
Maybe the elite players at this level address the demands for ice time with heavy conditioning work? They're only playing two games per week … next year or in the future, in the pros, they'll be playing 3, sometimes 4 games per week, maybe with the same ice time demands, plus against (and with) what will likely be a higher overall talent level at the next level(s)??
I would hope it's not asked of the elite players at this level to "slow down" so your slower and/or less-talented teammates can keep up ... which of course would help those pesky slower and/or less talented opponents better keep up and hold their own against what would be a decided competitive advantage?!?
Just saying … this last bit may not have been your best argument ever, Darius.
