2021-22 Adrian - Most dominant team in D3 history?

1) I don’t believe for a second this happened
2) Even if it did happen, why would an Adrian parent come up to you and say “Utica was actually better than you”
3) You are the only one that keeps bringing up the fact Geneseo didn’t play last year. Nobody else brings this up, certainly not parents.

Adrian was significantly better than every team this year, and still would have been better if everyone played last season. Stop trying to find the silver lining.

Yes, this did happen in the breakfast area at the Hampton. No, they did not come up to me. We were all discussing the game in close proximity and that led to several discussions--it was actually a very nice time. And, yes, the parents did ask why the SUNYAC didn't play any games last year, which led to the comment I'm referring to. I have no reason to lie. And why the hell can't I be proud of my team! You have a serious attitude problem.

Here's another "silver lining," since you seem to like them so much. Geneseo had to "replace" 136 points (53 goals, 83 assists) with the graduations of Keenan (SUNYAC player of the decade), Romano ( two time DIII points leader), and Empey (currently in the AHL), and still made the tournament finals this season. Who would have predicted that?

What a coincidence, I ran into 8 Cortland hockey parents last night at dinner. All of them said that Utica was far and away a better team than Geneseo. Take it for what it’s worth.

I said the same thing in my original post.

Given the way Geneseo played against Cortland, I might have said the same thing. Given that Geneseo shutout Utica and thoroughly dismantled a team/goalie that shutout Utica, I might say something different.

Nice mention for Adrian by Eddie O. tonight during the Red Wings v. Rangers game. Eddie seems to be one of the few elite level NHL announcers to mention DIII hockey occasionally.

(And now I wait for one of our regular forum combatants to claim that I made the whole thing up.)

No, you were right, except I was in the booth with Eddie and he was speaking of Utica

His son coached at Utica maybe 10 or so years ago.
