RPI 2013 Part V: Who Wants Screech?

Parker is retiring after this season. Hope they don't come knocking on the door of our gr8t coach. Most likely a Boston guy but the last two popes have been non-italians so you just never know. Our gr8t coach is a hot commodity these days.

Holy smokes, you have to be kidding! You have nothing to worry about in either instances......unless personal leverage is created from within!:rolleyes:;)

Nice article. I really didn't like taking Neal off the top line when it was done, but that seemed to open up scoring for all the lines going forward.
Great move, and SA gets all the credit for that move and the other moves he has made since January.
Who knows, maybe we will be giving Aspydad credit for his evaluation of the coach at the end of the season. I hope so.

Ed did a nice job on this article. Here are some questions that I would ask. Do you enjoy the title "our great coach"? Does it bother you that members of the USCHO board stalk you on recruiting trips? Did you recruit Luke Curadi soley on his size and hockey acumen or also because his mom is awesome? What kind of hair gel do you use?

I hope that Ed also asks our great coach if he was mad at members of USCHO thread when people made fun of AspyDad about his prediction that the team would bounce back?

I hope that Ed also asks the collective AspyDad's great coach why he accepts questions from a guy that's even nuttier than the dude with the long hair. :D

In the recruit thread, a thought came to mind regarding roving D-corps and special teams...

Our 5v3 as of late has been absolutely horrific. I took a look at some of the games courtesy of RPI-TV, and noticed that we're using 1 D in those situations. Obviously I can understand the case for more forwards, but if it worked for us in the 5v4, why not in the 5v3? What if we were to go with our traditional 5v4 lineups for the 5v3 in some form or another, instead of replacing Dolan with Diesel in the NHL + Bailen lineup? The boys seem a bit more productive, or at least relaxed, when it's the traditional complement of D-F, and they seem to be much more at ease in playing their game.

Sure, it's WAY too late to do anything about it now, but perhaps a thought in the future...

One starts to get the feeling that you don't know much about hockey tactics.

One starts to get the feeling that you are doomed to repeat history. How many 5v3 goals do we have this year? That's right, zero, with one shorty.
