Re: Plattsburgh State Hockey 13-14 Season 25
It's pretty sad all this calling for Emery's head. Emery, or for those you can't spell one of most successful coaches in DIII history Emory, knows these players better then probably anyone here on the board. This is nothing new for Emery. He will put you on point and call you out, always has and always will. I didn't see any individual names mentioned. Seems to work pretty good for him. What do you want him to do, be the "pat on the butt good game bobby we will get them next time", kind of coach? Bob preaches core values of hockey and life and that includes being accountable for your actions and there the lack of. For anyone who has actually paid attention, he has said this ALL SEASON LONG, get over it. Could he also be planting a seed of "they don't have it in them" so if they do get a bid they can prove him wrong?
Plattsburgh fans need to be more concerned about themselves (not the ones on here, I know most of you). A. 1600 people for a SUNYAC Playoff game against Oswego...Really?? Pathetic. Entire sections of the crowd sitting in their seats as the team comes on to the ice...Really?? Pathetic. Being told to you're being too loud by PSU Administration...Really?? Pathetic. Having fans tell you that "sit down we don't do the wave here"...Really?? Pathetic. Thank god for the Plattsburgh State Student Section because the 150 Laker fans were consistently louder then the Plattsburgh State fans. It's absolutely pathetic how a visiting teams crowd can honestly sit and chant "we can't hear you" from the drop of the puck, and be right. Maybe on the next phase of the Ronald B. Mortuary renovations they can install certain body part massagers in those comfy chairs with liquid cooled cup holders and feet warmers. Heck maybe you can get a manicure and pedicure while you sit in your seat.
When I saw Geneseo was winning Saturday night before our fait was decided, I was actually happy. The group of families, friends, and fans that travel with the team are more into the game then the 1600 Saturday night. Plattsburgh State prided itself on having one of the loudest and intimidating crowds not only in the SUNYAC but in the Nation. You've been passed by just about every SUNYAC team, even Brockport. As I said, thank god for the Plattsburgh State Student Section!!
Will Plattsburgh get a Pool C bid? Who knows. The way they are playing right now, not sure its deserving. Either way, when "$crew You $unday" comes and Plattsburgh's name isn't called, I will be one PSU fan who will not be upset. Being a Dallas Cowboy fan I'm use to this "having the chance after chance to get in on the last week" and not doing it. Beat Geneseo 2 weeks ago, 1st place. Beat Oswego last week, Pool C bid lock. Beat Oswego Saturday, Pool C bid lock and probably a home ice NCAA game. 0 for 3.
Yes.Thanks. This is so true, Prez. I just don't feel that this is the time for others to jump all over the team and the coach. Cardinal hockey has been such a successful program for so many years that no one expects an off ending
to the season. Nineteen wins is nothing to sneeze at either. I wish them the best and will hang in there til the bitter end!
