By the way, for anyone wanting to do something about the lopsided calls from select refs, here is the email for the ECAC Director of Officiating: pstewcat22@aol.com

A for effort from you there, but I think all Paul Stewart would do is laugh, heartily, at any critical e-mails especially on what amounts to be his personal address and not his professional one.

Yep, we're screwed.

We are just not deep enough to absorb 2 injuries to top line players. Hope we can keep this a low scoring weekend for the opponents and the defense can play a tight couple of games. Looks like the freshmen will have to carry us on their shoulders.

I'm wondering if we'll see Morrissette play now.

Me too. I don't think that we will see Halpern this weekend. I think that Vassel and Morissette will be in the lineup, although it could be Watts instead of Morissette. I also think that Smith will remain in the lineup.

What about Watts and Morrisette? The combination, that is.

I'd forgotten about Watts. Whoops. I think Smith stays in the lineup regardless, it's Halpern's spot I think gets changed up potentially. I'd bet that a few of those guys are busting their tails in practice this week to see who gets the call.

With speed being an issue with Yale, this is why I'd suspect Morrissette getting the nod at least on Friday.

Seriously WS..... I know we believe in Seth Appert, but not in the team? If we can win at Messa without Tyler, I think we have the ability to also win at HFH. Yes I'd like to see him healthy, but we gotta play the cards we have in this game. Look for Chase's other wing to step up and tally some points.

I won a bet on our power play last year. I have no shame in making any more bets on the success of RPI.

NHL prospects engineering success for RPI

RPI is off to a good start to their 2009-10 campaign with a 4-3-1 record. And it is their best start since their 5-2-0 start back in the 2007-08 season.

Much of the Engineers’ early season success has been thanks in large part to four of their six NHL prospects. And none have been as crucial to that success as sophomore Allen York (CBJ). The netminder from Westaskwin, AB has appeared in seven games to date, posting a 3-2-1 record. One of York’s most memorable games came back on Oct. 17 when he stopped 33 of 34 shots to gain a tie with Alaska in the Brice Gold Rush tournament in Fairbanks. RPI is also the only team thus far that Alaska has faced that they did not defeat.

Sophomore Mike Bergin (DAL) has returned to the RPI lineup looking better than ever after missing much of last season with an injury. He has appeared in all eight games to date. His five points (two goals, three assists) currently leads the Engineers in defenseman scoring.

A pair of highly touted freshmen in Brandon Pirri (CHI) and Jerry D’Amigo (TOR) round out the group. Both have lived up to their billing and have been keys to the much-improved RPI offense this season. Pirri leads RPI in rookie scoring with seven points (four goals, three assists). His four-point weekend versus Sacred Heart and AIC back on Oct. 23 and 24 earned him his first ECAC Rookie of the Week honor. D’Amigo follows Pirri with six points (two goals, four assists). Both of his goals have come on the power play. The two rookies have appeared in all eight games.
