I guess that is forgivable, since I understand he had never been that close to an exit at the end of a game before. :p (Come-on it's a joke! For those of you who don't know, the visiting team's entrance door is just behind the cage to the goalie's left.)

I'm sorry, but you're absolutely wrong here. You were at the game, yes?

Gilbert after the final buzzer started to try and exit the ice and go back to the locker room without a handshake, however I definitely saw more than a few other players only a few steps behind him trying to exit as well and follow in his foot steps.... I would have NEVER noticed even Gilbert leaving the ice had it not been for the other Oswego players starting to head back in.

Careful there Prez........they may rescind your degree.......

As far as the original question,

Who else besides the mighty Salve Regina has Utica beat?
Click to expand...
do you think he really wants to go there Prez?

Salve Regina currently has a higher KRACH ranking than Lawrence, Nichols has a higher KRACH ranking than either Cortland, Potsdam or Brockport, and Amherst has a higher KRACH ranking than Plattsburgh.....oh, that's right, Oswego did not win that game.

Oswego has been an enigma this season. They destroyed Elmira and Geneseo but they have been very flat in most of their other games. Their only good win is at Hobart and they needed OT after holding a 2-0 lead with about 2 minutes to play. I am not saying they can't still be a favorite to win the SUNYAC and the NCAA's but right now they really aren't that good.

Maybe he thought there was another period as he only played 2? :rolleyes: See I can have fun too :D
 
Re: Oswego State Laker Hockey 2012-2013....No Slogans, Just Hockey

I was right there on their way off the ice pal next to the gate on ice level. They always come to hug and pat the goalie on the head before they shake hands with the other team. With the proximity of the gate and the fact Gilby was headed off the ice (forgive him it was a rookie mistake) I could see where a Utica fan would think they were all headed off the ice. But, no that was not the case. We have too much dignity as a team to walk off without shaking hands. After every loss to Platty as much as it hurts we shake their hands because we respect the hell out of them. The only time I have seen the boys reluctantly shake hands was against Neumann.

Any other knit picky things you want to throw my way to answer for you?

Oswego's big wins
@Hobart 11-1-1
home vs. Plymouth St. 9-3
@Genny who is 8-4-1
home vs. Buff St. 6-7-2

Utica's big wins
X2 vs. Oswego
vs. Amherst who is 8-4-1
Nichols who is 9-5
and slip Neumann in there too

Outside of those games so far the schedule mirrors Oswego's for easiness. Utica has played Morrisville, Fredonia, Salve, Elmira twice. Where Oswego much the same and add in Cortland and Brockport. Pots and Freddy are not that bad.
I would say Utica has not much to brag about in the big wins department. The biggest thing you have to wave in front of our faces is the head to head wins. To that my hats off to your boys. They played sound and disciplined hockey both nights and were the better team.

You're really reaching to call a below 500 buff state win at home a big win.

Plymouth state, while their record is good plays in probably the weakest league there is.

And slip Neumann in there? They are 7-4-2 and are the only team in the country to beat the No. 1 team Norwich so far this year and not to mention it was at Norwich. I would say that more than qualifies over sub 500 buff state and Plymouth.

Oh yeah, forgot about the elephant in the room, they did just beat Oswego 6-0 too....6 to nothing. Worst loss by Oswego in a decade.

Is the world coming to an end? Platty fan backing a Oswego fan? Thanks brother! I knew I had a reason for a high level of respect for your team and fans. Just to put it out there Syracuse rarely plays 4 times a week in basketball and when they do they always put up a crapper of a game. Just like sticks said, I'm not worried of a "downward spiral", I believe in the boys , Eddie, and Mark.

And sorry but I laughed when I read that you thought Gosek should have played Gilbert. The man has a National Championship and 199 wins. I'm not questioning what he does and plus I know the man personally so I respect his decisions. Hindsight is 20/20 on this one Pios#1. Hare is our guy and will continue to be the man between the pipes until he really trips up. This loss was not on him.

I definitely agree Hare is the go to goalie, and this loss is not on him. But, I wouldn't be suprised to see Ed start Gilbert against Naz just to rattle some cages, and change things up.

Hey Prez, as much as I'm trying to stay out of this, no one is "forgetting" Saturday night's game, and LakerAlum mentioned it twice in his post...
 
Re: Oswego State Laker Hockey 2012-2013....No Slogans, Just Hockey

Thanks for the backing up Mike. Believe me when I say this I have not forgot about the loss Saturday nor the loss on the 7th. Hell I haven't forgot about the loss to Hobart where we got whallopped and the loss to Potsdam on Senior night 4 years ago. Don't act like I'm not concerned and "slip" was not meant as a slight against Neumann just a turn of phrase. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

My panties are not in a bunch but to me it seems pretty assinine to even begin to compare Utica to Oswego currently or make jabs at Utica saying "who else have they beat?" when they've beaten Oswego twice now, including one time in an absolute blowout.
