    I was going to read the rest of what you wrote, but I don't need to put up with this crap. Try again if you want a real conversation.
    Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

      What can I say, your confrontational nature left quite the impression.

        Wow, another internet hero.

        Keep repeating that, maybe it'll come true.

          It'll help that he's playing in the NHL fresh out of college. Blew my mind a little to watch him skate out on the ice for the Winter Classic, after seeing him sitting in our penalty box at the HFH less than a year ago!

            We were at one Philly home game so far this year-much as I hated to say it-Harry Z looked very good on the ice and seemed to fit in extremely well for a rookie.

              Kind of knew he was bound for the show. Every team needs that annoying asshat and he did it better than most the league has ever seen. And he signed with the right team, too.

                I don't know that Harry has been the antagonist in the pros that he was last year for Bruno. He has 28 penalty minutes through 31 games played (and is a -11). That said, he has looked decent, certainly that he belongs skating in the NHL. One would have to argue that his staying four years and developing under Brendan Whittet (not that he was ever a risk for leaving early) is a major contributor. Honestly, there aren't many folks who would have thought him to be an NHL regular after two years as a Bear. He reminds a bit of a Tanner Glass - a guy that was consistent in college, though not a 20-goal guy, who evolves into a steady NHL presence.

                To get back to this weekend, and having not seen either team: what has been RPI's major issue with scoring this year? Has it been poor shot selection, overall poor play, or just a regular streak of unluckiness? Brown had a stretch in 2006 when they were struggling to score against just about everybody, and the playoffs weren't any different. One solace RPI fans can take is that if this rate keeps up, the #12 seeds have been solid if not spectacular in the playoffs the past couple of years.

                As for Union, I would have said that was a game the Bears could have afforded to tie or lose - but then a 1-point weekend against Princeton and Quinnipiac at home rolled along. Thus, if Brown wants any chance of playing a home series in March, they need at least two, if not three, this time around.

                  You're kidding, right? That was the first time I've ever seen you even attempt rational conversation on this board. But whatever, suit yourself. Keep up the belittling of everyone else, it's so refreshing.

                    Well, you obviously don't look very hard, then. Or you see what you want to see.

                    I have rational conversations with those who show interest in having rational conversations by showing rational thought.

                      We started the season with an unlucky streak-couldn't buy a goal, and it seemed none of the bounces went our way. It didn't help that several of our scorers were injured and missed quite a few games. Once we got guys back, they began to click and the scoring started to pick up, but then the defense became shaky. We haven't had a lot of chemistry develop this year, and while we look good on paper, all the talent in the world doesn't help if you have five individuals skating around out there, not playing as a team. We seem to be having communication issues on the ice.

                        My thought too. The Flyers historically have a very low standard of civility.

                          Yes.

                            They actually HAVE a standard?!

                            Obviously a whole bunch of NHL regulars getting thrown on the IR hasn't hurt the matters of the top AHL players.

                                As a long time Ranger fan-you sure got that right. He fits the Philly mold to a tee.
