Please show me where I said that. What I said was PWR in December are pretty much worthless. ScottK, I know you aren't at the top of your class, but you could be far better then the 10th percentile if you just tried reading. No go back to your own thread troll.


ANd I am sure you are aware that the PWR require a team to have played at least 10 games against top 25 opponents which UML has not (4), so I guess they aren't even ranked in the PWR right??? Where as UVM has (10) so I guess UVM would be ahead of UML??

Glad to see that you know how the PWR works. Record vs TUC is ONE component of the formula. So, just because UVM has played more teams against TUC now, it doesn't mean that are ahead of UML. Also, UML has played 6 games against TUC thus far, not 4. Perhaps you should take your own advice about reading.

The fact remains, you're still trying to argue that subjective opinions are carrying more weight than a mathematical formula. You don't like PWR because it's too early? How about KRACH? UML and BC are both ahead of Yale (and UVM) there as well. KRACH not good enough for you? How about RPI? BC is 4th, UML is 12th, Yale is 18th, UVM is 20th.

My point, no matter what statistical method you want to use Yale (and Vermont) are not as good as BC or Lowell so far this year.

I still think BC is a soft team. Exhibit A, lousy, crummy, stinky, icky, ishy UVM, with its awful defense/goaltending, right Dick, beat them 3-2 after being run out of the building the evening before. Where's the guts in that? Though, to be fair, Muse was sensational!!!!!!!!!!!

And I simply gave you ONE example of why PWR doesn't matter. If you can't figure that out you need to ask your mom to buy you a helmet before you get hurt.

nope, but because UML hasn't played 10 they are ineligible, putting VT ahead.

No Im not arguing anything of the sort. I said its too early to use PWR or anyother method. I said nothing about polls. Try and keep up lil fella.

Are you seriously trying to make friends with Nick, try and get in good with someone else so you don't feel like such a putz?? That is pathetic.

And umm, I don't want to break this to you but, UML is what 2-3-1 against teams about 25th ?? And haven't played a team better then 13th. Yeah that's "real good." Or did you just throw BC in there because they actually are good and you want to link the two together.

Again, please learn how the PWR works. UML is not "ineligible" because they haven't played 10 TUC. It means that component isn't used in the calculations.

The facts are Yale was ranked higher last year then BC and currently are ranked higher then BC in the USCHO poll, the USA today poll, and the INCH power rankings.

And Vermont's 4-5-1 is something to brag about? When Lowell plays BC 3 times (which they will in the 2nd half), they'll have played someone higher than 13th. I'll ignore the fact that UMass is tied with Lowell for 12th and assume that's who you are using as 13th.

Will you still use this argument after UVM plays SLU, Dartmouth, and UAH (all teams that Lowell has already played or could play in the next 3 weeks)? :rolleyes:

I stand corrected, on closer examination it doesn't matter one bit since UML hasn't won a single TUC comparison anyways. Nice one.

ScottK said:

Yes really, you seem to take my statment that Yale was/is ranked in the polls higher then BC to be an argument that polls are more accurate then PWR. But you will notice that I never said polls meant anything either, nor did I compare them to the PWR. I made a statement and that was it. Your warped, delusional undeveloped mind put several separate statements together to try and make up something that wasn't said. But look on the bright side, when you goto court you can plead insanity.

You are a whack job. I stated that UML is 2-3-1 against teams in the top 25 (I noted this was a Krach ranking on the UML thread and if you read your own thread would have know that but instead you are too busy on the UVM thread being a putz). You can play BC 3 times, lose to them, and your record will be 2-6-1 against teams above 25th. I don't know what your point is here. As for the SLU, DC, and UAH games....they wouldn't count as they aren't in the top 25? You seem to be confused. Take a deep breath, put down the crack pipe, and try and focus.
 
Re: 2009-2010 Official Vermont Season Thread

Are there any other Vermont fans left here now that JCarter has sucked in every moron from HE?

Hey J we used to only have to deal with morons in the games threads but thanks to you they now fill up this thread with all their dumb crap.

If you want to argue start another thread and have a ball, or go into their threads but please leave this one alone.

Re: 2009-2010 Official Vermont Season Thread

this thread is more and more difficult to read with all this infighting.was once a time when hockey was the topic.when hockey becomes the topic again--i'll start paying attention. what a bunch of dribble.
 
Re: 2009-2010 Official Vermont Season Thread

That funny Catlover, I seem to remember a page back you were partaking in the idiocy as much as jcarter when you were citing human polls as a reason for suggestion Yale's superiority over BC and UML.

It is reminiscent of grantfan crying in his cereal a few weeks ago when he started a thread about me. We sucked out all of the fun for him yet last year he didn't mind talking smack about BC with his cute little rant that I quoted back on page 28 of this thread.

You hypocrites from UVM portray yourselves as such good victims! I do feel bad for the uvm folks that really do want to come here to talk UVM hockey, though. They should speak up against clowns like Cat Lover, grantfan, and jcarter and unite.

Thanks for proving my point.

First you insult, then you claim to feel bad about those who want to talk hockey when you are one of those filling up our thread with non-hockey talk.

To bad some of the BC's programs history of class didnt rub off on those fans who post here.

Hey, cat lover why don't you check and see who started this thread. If you don't like the direction it goes in then go start YOUR OWN thread. Otherwise maybe try to talk about hockey instead of whining like you went to UML. If it wasn't for the trash talk this thread would be on page 9. But because no one has anything to say the retards from other teams come here. If anyone wanted to talk hockey they could, but since they don't it leaves the door open for trash talk. But don't blame me for the morons that decided to leave the game threads to come here. Another suggestion might be to START a game thread, that may keep them away. Either way, you can blame me or you can man up and do something about it. Better yet, blame it on Bush.

How would you know if hockey becomes the topic again if you aren't paying attention??



You guys really make VTer's look like a bunch of whiners. The thread isn't going how you would like, but instead of talking about hockey, which is what you want discussed, you just ***** that no one else is. If you want to talk hockey you are still free to. Give it a try.

Okay, let's give it a try, let's talk some hockey. Hockey Talk with Linda Richman!!!

Single game this weekend, home against our old foe SLU, which appears to be playing solid, but certainly not spectacular hockey. It seems every week we go into games thinking "Okay, this will show us what the team is really made of." Having done that myself for a number of weeks, I think I've got a pretty good idea what the team is made of. Despite that, it will still be interesting to see how the team responds to last week's drubbing at the hands of UNH. Will there be any significant shuffling with the lineup? Will Leonard be in uniform after last week's 5-minute major? (Personally, I think he provides a spark and should be). Finally, I'd be shocked if we see anyone other than Madore in goal. Your thoughts? Talk amongst yourselves.
