Get used to it, we had some fun last year before the first round with our UND folks. I hope and pray you have the same result as old Elihu did!

I need help figuring out a way to watch Saturday's game here in Raleigh, North Carolina. I checked espn3.com - their channelfinder applet indicates that my ISP, Time Warner Cable, is not an espn3.com affiliate, and therefore I cannot access espn3.com content! Do any of you suspect that I'll be able to catch this game on any other syndication channel? I have a friend here who has DirecTV. I thought my chances would be good there.

I suspect it will be on one of the Fox College Sports channels, which are available on Timewarner. It will almost certainly be available on Fox Sports North, or similar, which is available on DirectTV.

Wow! What is it about my post that would suggest "trash talk"? I was just stating 1 big fact that has been missed by you guys. That being an extremely good goaltender. As for it being my first post on USCHO, you got me there. Which must mean I have no idea what im talking about. Everyone on this board had a 1st post. But Im sure they were all much much better than mine.

You make many assumptions, grasshopper. And you know what happens when you assume.

Christ, we shouldn't even bother to show up on Saturday. What with such facts as "All your talk about having a hot golie [sic] who can steal a game is funny" and "Your defense will not win this game for you."

Your words, not mine. You're the only one guaranteeing a victory around here.

So tell me, super genius, how much do you know about RPI? Do share, I'm quite interested.

I have never claimed to be a "super genius" but thanks for the compliment.
What I know RPI.......

Finished 6th in the ECAC
8 players over 10 goals, 0 over 15...Tells me not a Strong offense
26th in the nation in offense...........Tells me not a Strong offense
7th in the nation in defense...........Tells me you rely on defense to win games. Hense my previous statement that D will not win the game for you.

So in other words, you know nothing except for what you've tried to divine (and failed, from the looks of things) from looking at numbers. Go ahead, you can admit that you really don't know anything about RPI. Without looking - how many Hobey Baker candidates do we have and if we have any, who are they? What's our goaltender's name and what happened to him in February? Where are we from? Have we ever done anything relevant? Where did North Dakota win their first ever national championship, and how many times have you been there? I threw that last one in there to see if you were paying attention, I'm sure you must know that one, after all, you're a SIOUXperfan!

Remember, without looking. Good luck sport!

EDIT: Aww, he left without answering these simple questions. D'oh.

Now you are getting comical. This went from me suggesting to not overlook our goaltending to all of the sudden I need to prove my "SIOUXperfan"ness to you. That is just funny.

You're the #1 team in the country, numbnuts. What exactly did you expect us to "overlook?"

Simple questions, but if you can't answer them, you can't answer them. I'm a little shocked that you can't at least answer the last question, it's about your own team.
 
Re: RPI 2010-2011 VI- Red Dead Redemption

I thought ac was not a bad place to watch hockey. most of the crowd was there for thier team Cornell had less than usual Yale had more than usual colgate and dart had a few supporters but very few showed up without a team to support . we were ther some slu fans but i dont think they got any Philly or NYC crowd or alumni like the walk up crowds at the diet pepsi arena. Yale was dominant. it was funny watching shaffer screaming and complaining about a missed icing call or penalty when his team could not compete. Cornell goalie looked shellshocked when pulled. Might have been a mistake to play him but the result would not have benn different if Garmin started. Dart skated all around the cornell team and managed to successfully hit the goalie with all their shots it wasnt a matter of great saves almost a 2-1 shot advantage. Stayed at Harrahs. If they want to comp me tickets for next years games (aka RPI invite) i would be happy to accept. Could not eat at the white house sub place. Line was out the door and no place to park at 2pm.
 
Re: RPI 2010-2011 VI- Red Dead Redemption

"numbnuts"? Didn't your mother teach you any manners? If i was a fellow RPI fan I would be embarssed by the way you carry yourself and the direction you've taken this thread. This is a hockey thread not a how much does SIOUXperfan! know thread.
As I stated before I don't claim to be a super genius. Following a team in the WCHA does NOT give me tons of access to the great hockey power that is RPI, but since learning of the matchup I have been trying to learn as much as possible. I could answer 75% of your questions you just threw at me without doing any research after the fact like you requested but the great thing is I DONT have to prove myself to you.
btw, since your username is "RedFrog", does that mean you are literally a red colored frog?

Now back to the topic at hand and directed to everyone who is not an oddly colored amphibian,
A hot goaltender alone will not win you this game. RPI needs to bring a big offense to get anything past the 2nd ranked nationally, and WCHA Champion Goaltender. Again, I say this now because i have not seen anything discussing how to get pucks past Aaron Dell. The only reasons for this would be because....
1. The fans have not thought about it and it has been overlooked or
2. The fans dont think RPI will have a problem getting anything passed him.

Look for Time Warner Announcement tonight or tomorrow morning that they will pick up RPI game live Saturday afternoon along with one of the Fox midwest networks.

UND will NOT be looking past anyone in this tourney. Yes, UND is big and fast. We have tons of scoring power. All your talk about having a hot golie who can steal a game is funny. Your defense will not win this game for you. I would like to Introduce you RPI fans to a Mr. Aaron Dell. Statistically speaking he is the second ranked goaltender in the
Country as well as the WCHA Goaltending Champion. If your team wants to make it past
Saturdays game I would suggest bringing the biggest caliber firepower you have.

Seriously, dude? Give it a rest.
You do realize that we lost to an ECAC team in the 1st round last year, don't you?

Now you're just embarassing yourself. His name is Red Cloud. RedFrog is a fellow Sioux fan.
 
Re: RPI 2010-2011 VI- Red Dead Redemption

After all the discussion back in November I hesitate to ask, but is the pep band going to Green Bay?
