Coach McShane told us in our media day interview on NSN Radio that he has a verbal commitment from Dartmouth for an "exhibition" game next fall at Thompson Arena.

Kinda surprised there were so few comments about his.

Just like everything else with this board now.

New posters just aren't coming on at the same rate we're losing them nowadays. :(

Discussion sucks this year.

Five years ago, if Plattsburgh was 2-3 and after the loss to Morrisville there would have been five threads asking what the heck was going on and Fire Emery along with the whole nine yards. Now, you barely heard a peep.

It's sad. :(

Prez, I couldn't agree more. Where is everyone? I almost want to write something very controversial about some team just to spark some discussion. Oh, well, I guess we will just have to wait and see who gets their feathers ruffled. Oh, I think that is usually me! haha!

I've got a nice thread-starter if the Cards lose to Buffalo State this weekend :P

Will we be keeping track of the alternate belt here or over in the Belt thread??
 
Re: Norwich Cadets Hockey 2010-2011: Title defense time.

So does BengalsBroadcaster44 if he lurks.

Bengal Broadcaster graduated I believe. For as much as we battled, I miss the guy. He at least brought a voice on this forum to Buffalo State and that's something we haven't had in a long time if ever.

He is working in motorsports announcing in the central NY area last I heard. That was actually legit when he claimed that.

There is no alternate belt - Norwich don't need no freakin' fake belt. Besides NU doesn't do well with belts.

Coach McShane told us in our media day interview on NSN Radio that he has a verbal commitment from Dartmouth for an "exhibition" game next fall at Thompson Arena.

I have weighed in on this already. I'm excited - don't know who I will root for - the school that gave me the education to give me a great career, or the school where I spent most of it :eek:
 
Re: Norwich Cadets Hockey 2010-2011: Title defense time.

I have never been at a banner raising before. Other than the actual raising of the banner are there any other special activities that are done on the ice. For example, does the team come out through fog or under the raised swords.
 
Re: Norwich Cadets Hockey 2010-2011: Title defense time.

Norwich playing a game in Thompson Arena against Dartmouth next October should generate a lot of fan interest since the commute to Hanover to see the game is managable. Dartmouth is currently 2-2-1 with a recent win over Clarkson, 7-1, so Norwich will have a good test. I remember the old days when Norwich used to play UVM but I think most fans will agree that the current Norwich team is a little more skilled than the past teams in the 80/90's.

The coach also taked about playing a couple of Canadian U teams and possibly a under 18 team (US or Sweden). It will be interesting to see how Norwich matches up in these step up games. Should help with recruiting though.
 
Re: Norwich Cadets Hockey 2010-2011: Title defense time.

Are you sure you weren't being buffaloed?

Found out his real name and actually was at the track the night he was the pit reporter. So yeah...he's legit. I can't imagine it's a full time gig but he did work with the track.

An APC comes out of the zamboni entrance and the team hops off. This is similar to Salem State where an imitation Viking long boat is maneuvered into position and the team jumpsout over the side yelling "ODIN!!!"

We've done the arc of swords and fog. Unfortunately the students are going to be on break which throws a lot of it into a pickle. It will still be a special night. The timing is just unfortunate that the students won't be here.

This is the type of forward-thinking this place needs more of these days.

You've only seen it in the video.

As if the place wasn't already intimidating enough. This new display case will greet fans as the enter Kreitzberg from the main entrance at the top of the landing.
