Re: RPI 2010 Off-season thread V: Captain Kennedy and the A-Team

Is there any chance that the "multiple sources" sited are Xanax adled blogheads from Kitchener?

I'm more/as interested to hear if JDA is there....

PS: Also, if you happen to spot a skinny kid with chin fuzz and a funny frenchie accent saying things like "merci buckets", we'd be interested in that too...

Jerry is gone. Won't see him at dinner. Won't see him take it to Union, Cornell, etc. I'm thinking about going back on my anti-depressant or at least getting a drink recommendation from DrD and Jenny.

Seth will figure this out and this, although a loss, will cause the others to step it up. If Jerry doesn't want to stay at RPI it is best he moves on. Team chemistry is just as important as talent. I wish him the best and hope he isn't jumping too soon.

I agree..certainly will open up a chance for ice time for guys like Higgs and Rogic, etc.
 
Re: RPI 2010 Off-season thread V: Captain Kennedy and the A-Team

If I'm BP, I stick around, as I am no longer sharing the limelight with JDA...I can be "the guy"... In any event, one of our forwards will need to step into the gritty, never die role that Jerry brought to the squad.

How do you know he is gone? A half hour ago you didn't even know the news of his possible signing.

Because it comes from Yahoo Sports Canada which is a reputable media outlet.

Great, now I feel like a dope for suggesting "The A Team" for a thread title, given the possibility that it may be broken up this week.
 
Re: RPI 2010 Off-season thread V: Captain Kennedy and the A-Team

Hopefully he's the only one who jumps after one year, while it's nice to have talents of that level. I don't think we want RPI to become like Kentucky basketball and have players only showing up for one year, people need more time together in order to form the best team.

If Jerry does in fact leave I wish him all the luck in the world....in a crazy kind of way it will be good for the program in the sense that recruits can come here and fulfill there NHL dreams.IMO Jerry is making a mistake.Another year or even 2 would put him in position to return to school and finish his degree in short order and move on with life if the NHL thing doesn't work out(which statistics show there is a high probability it won't)But once the NHL shills get there hooks in you there is no looking back.Brian Burke has had 3 GM positions...Hartford/Vancouver/Anaheim....Fired from all 3 jobs....and IMO Toronto is a sinking ship or at best taking on water...not the best situation in the world...but what do I know !!!!!

Spot on TB. Burkie gets credit for the USA silver medal but if Miller doesn't stand on his head and Marty B hadn't stunk the joint out who knows what would have happened to USA team.

Agree-what a revolting development this is( Quoting the old TV show the Life Of Riley). I could certainly understand this jump after another year of seasoning in the NCAA. Just my opinion, but this just seems a tad early. Unless of course the money offered is staggering. If we are talking a couple of 7 figure numbers then by all means it is a good decision. Anything less, without a guarantee of making the parent NHL club just does not seem like a sensible decision. If true-i wish Jerry all the best and truly hope this works out for him.

All I am saying is that nothing is certain until it is. Even Apppert is quoted as saying it isn't a done deal yet so maybe he will be there tonight-and even if he is leaving he doesn't have to run and hide. If he is in town I say he shows up tonight-he will love all the attention.
