Nope.

But you'll have to forgive RHM's assumption that you were a guy. I imagine that if you counted up all the women on this message board for all of the teams on one hand, you would still have a couple fingers to spare.

Well thanks for the supportive statement.

I may not know a lot about the draft hockey rules, and that's my mistake, I care a lot more about our Miami hockey team than an NHL team. For sure I watch NHL hockey, but i love college hockey more.

I come here to express my opinions. And my forum relationship with RHM isn't good since the whole UNO "overrated" debate. I don't want to be looked down upon, called ignorant (which I feel has a much more negative connotation than just unknowledgeable). I'm here and interesting to learn, but I didn't expect/want any sort of hostile/demeaning language towards myself or my opinions of the sport.

fair enough, I don't want to push anyone away from the board but you need to have thick skin. Especially if you admit you don't know a lot. '08 came on here not know a whole lot engaged in conversation took some critisim in stride and actually has learned a lot, I believe.

I posted what ignorant means and it isn't really meant to be a harsh statement, you admited you weren't knowledgeable and that is the definition. I love talking hockey and so does everyone on here there are some of us that can help you learn and I know I am willing to help.

Maybe I was a little harsh about the UNO comment but I think students sometime get tunnel vision and have a hard time admitting anyone is good besides their program. You can ask redeagle I had it when I first started on here 8 years ago but with age and more knowledge you understand more. It is what it is, and the CCHA is better than most think. Just because Miami has ran through the league doesn't mean otherwise.

Again I apologize if I was too harsh but when you kept coming at me, I wasn't going to back down. Just don't let things get to you too much on here, some things sound different on the computer than they are intended to be.

The reason I get defensive, is because you of all people say things to put people down, and make people feel really stupid. You act like no one can ever disagree with you (e.g. UNO), because you know absolutely everything because you played hockey?

Please don't take what is said on this board as an attack on your (or anyone else's) actual intelligence or character. I have been on here for 4 yrs (different names) and cannot tell you how much my hockey acumen and appreciation for the game as a whole has grown, simply by being honest of what I do/don't know and keeping an open mind. The majority of the people on this board are very respectful - slightly brash sometimes, but respectful. And believe me when I say that RHM has actually changed his mind - i've seen it :D . It just takes logical reasoning.

I know, I even gave you a compliment below. I am impressed at how much you have retained since coming on here. We have great conversation on here, I think, and it gets intense but I don't think anyone holds grudges. case in point me and JD go at it sometimes but never carry it over. So have me and '95 and we get together every now and then.

Apology accepted. :) And I apologize for getting hostile as well, when I see certain words which I group as negative, like ignorant, or other blanket associations by people, i just feel as though I need to correct them. I know I need to learn a lot, and i'm willing to listen/read.

Of course I wasn't expecting UNO to come out like that on Saturday, we played like we were recovering from our hangovers. While waiting in line for the Saturday game I saw I believe Schilling (but don't count me on it) walking in, and he literally looked as if he had just crawled out of bed, or had been sleeping in the bathroom all night with his head hanging over the toilet.

No excuse for the way we played, but typically Friday is our close game and then Saturday we tend to come out and give team a good ol' spanking. UNO took advantage of our hungover-ness which is what any good team would do. I've been really surprised by the last half of their season, and wonder where they could possibly go in the CCHA tourney.

At least there are some players on the team that you can always depend on to play well and show up for every game. My personal favorite: Vaive :)

Anyone going to the game on Saturday in Columbus? I'm excited for it. Last time I went we had more fans that OSU, it was great!

I think UNO is very dangerous, the main thing they have going for them is a coach that has been there before. That and they have tremendous team speed and have a lot of confidence. Confidence at this point in the season is very very dangerous. Case in point NMU last season when they got hot at the end of the year and came into goggin and beat Miami in the playoffs.

That was my main point last week, they do have some skill but they are coached extremely well. Sometimes that makes all the difference. But it is really hard to look past a team that is playing as well as them and NMU this time of year. Positive thing is Miami can't see them until the joe should all get there.

Prolly not, but I may actually be in Oxford for Friday. I may be coming into town this week, so looking forward to it.

I'm upset by the seating they're giving to the students. I understand its during break so not a lot of people are coming back, but I am :) i'm ending my florida beach warm trip early to make it back on time. Anyways...I alwasy get sad when they don't let me sit in my seats :(. I love sitting by the visitors bench...give them a little taste of Miami student taunts. Sometimes I actually end up making friends with them.

They're giving all the red alert seats to the students and I'm just not a big fan of those seats. I don' think they're the best ones.

Jonas Hiller was unworldly...That game was right up there with US-Canada, what a freaking hockey game. That sequence with the swiss goal/no goal then US comes down and scores to have it waved off and a penalty called against was insane.

That was ridiculous, I was afraid that that two goal swing was going to wind up with the game tied, the states distraught, and swiss coming away with a 1 goal win.
 
Re: Official 2009-2010 Miami season thread part II: Unfinished Business

And wow, apparently we've had some fun in this thread tonight eh?

Do we still have a game this weekend? Or do we need some more Saved By The Bell talk?
 
Re: Official 2009-2010 Miami season thread part II: Unfinished Business

How did Jagr get denied there? Wow. Who to pull for here, Jaromir or Teemu. Tough choice...
 
Re: Official 2009-2010 Miami season thread part II: Unfinished Business

Czechs very close to giving up a penalty shot there. Goalie lost the puck and one of the dman put his hand on it and covered it up just outside the crease.

Then Jagr gets denied point blank again.
