RIT better address the penalties or the penalty kill.

AIC was 3-7 on the power play.

During their brief winning streak, they did not allow a PP goal.

In reality, they need to address both if they are going to win the league.
 
Re: RIT 2010-11: What do Tigers dream of?

I call shenanigan's on the official attendance for the box scores for both games this last weekend. College hockey stats lists them as 382 for Friday and 212 for Saturday. Yet having been to the games I can safely say there were less than 100 people there for both games counting the people on the bench and ice. In fact, I the ticket numbers I have from Friday to Saturday are only 39 apart.

The only way I can figure that they got to those numbers is counting me (and the other 12 of us) for additional times entering the arena after having had to go out to the lobby to find some shred of warmth. Seriously, I've been to cold arena's before. Heck, I went to watch some games at Hobart back in the day. But that was the coldest arena I have ever been in.
 
Re: RIT 2010-11: What do Tigers dream of?

There were more people at Friday's game than Saturday's game I'd say an easy 50 more people. But you're right the numbers seem a little high. I'd presuming they're counting all the comp tickets that were given by the players that were not picked up. For example, at Mercyhurst I got tickets number 61(10 mins before game started Friday) and 50(20 mins early Saturday) both nights, and they said there were 498 Friday and 212 Saturday.

Also, if you can safely say there were less than 100 people there Friday, you're smoking something illegal. Saturday I would agree with you though, I guess you ran out. =]

Finally, Hamilton College's Sage Rink will forever get the award for coldest rink. But it just shouldn't be as cold in the Olympia as it is.

Looking over the scores around the AHA from this weekend, parity in this league strikes again. Splits for UConn at Niagara, RIT at AIC, and Hurst at Sacred Heart.Two ties this weekend, one for Holy Cross at AF and Bently at Rob Mo.

Any given game eh?

... I still am indifferent about this team! I do not understand how you can play fantastic one night and completely bomb the next... Oh well, could this be a rebuilding year?

I have never been so cold as I was at a game in Sage when the Tigers visited in the late 80's. I swear the goalies were laying on the ice to get warm.

Never been to a game at Hamilton or AIC ... Are they actually colder than the Murray Center?? If so, WOW, that's cold!

They are relatively young and or inexperienced at some of the critical positions. Not to mention the multitude of injuries (and one suspension) to the D-men recently.

Growing up (well, I never have really grown up but you know what I mean) ... anyway, growing up I lived right about halfway in between Sage and the Clinton Arena. I spent a lot more time at the Arena ... must have been because it was so (comparatively) warm and cozy. :rolleyes:

The inexperience at defense is an issue. Also, there is no shut-down pair that you can throw out there against the top lines.

As for rebuilding - remember that RIT has traditionally been a second half team. Hopefully that trend continues.

Not even close. The Murray is a sauna compared to games at Hamilton or Potsdam's Maxcy Hall.

Really? Brrr! I guess I'm glad I've never seen games in those places. I froze my butt off at Elmira many times. I'd hate to be even colder than that for 3+ hours... Although...I did venture to a game at Hobart once (and only Once!) a long time ago (didn't know it wasn't inside until I got there - in February nonetheless). I'll bet neither Hamilton, Potsdam, nor AIC can match the Geneva Community Ice Rink (or whatever that abomination was called) for cold, eh?
 
Re: RIT 2010-11: What do Tigers dream of?

Anyone else see 13Wham News sports last night at 6:00? For a channel that seems to be all about covering the Tigers, I was a little disheartened to see on the screen that RIT Tiger goaltender Maladora won the AHA goaltender of the week. Now I can certainly understand a typo now and then. Who among us hasn't mis-spelled something occasionally? The disheartening part was that Chuck Wade actually pronounced it the same way it was spelled on the screen... as though he had never heard of they guy before and was just reading copy. He and Catalana have talked about the Tigers numerous times this season and last. You think he'd know better. Turns out he's just going through the motions when covering the Tigers. Oh well. At least we know what we've got here, whether anyone else does or not.
 
Re: RIT 2010-11: What do Tigers dream of?

Didn't see it but I will give them a bit of a pass since they do cover RIT. I know I've pronounced and typed his name that way.

I suspect that they probably did just read the copy without thinking. I don't think it's that big a deal. Only us diehards would notice a small thing like that.
