RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

Exciting game, fun to watch, HFH felt like the old days.

Krawchuk played an exceptional game. Lang was very strategic with the challenges and it paid off.

If they can keep this up, they will indeed be a "tough out" in the playoffs.

Yes this team has lots of potential. But they played far better on Saturday than on Friday. So consistent good play is required to go anywhere.
 
Last night the crowd was rocking, especially in the third period during the comeback. I got curious about the crowd last night:
Total Recorded Attendance: 4456 RPI Fans (RPI season high - no data for Mayor's Cup)

By comparison:
Harvard vs Cornel @ Cornel: 4267 (Harvard's previous season high for recorded attendance this year - no data for Beanpot).
RPI vs Union @ RPI (Blackout): 2710
Freakout (2025): 4567
Freakout (2024): 4290
Freakout (2023): 4117
Blackout (2022): 4700 (Field House Sell Out)

As a side note, I do wonder how accurate these numbers are. As someone in the field house last night, it felt like there were more seats taken than in 2025's Freakout

O

that was probably paid. It didn’t count guests of Marty, guests of the team (recruits, alumni, etc) so there were probably some seats set aside for those people

Were any of our known recruits present or were these players whom we are trying to attract? I postulated earlier that Léo-Gabriel Gosselin would probably attend,

Additional images of the proposed field house renovations were available at the alumni house last night. Sharing 3 images of the 3 different levels. Event Level Mezzanine Level Upper Concourse

Thanks for sharing these, good to see them.

So if I'm seeing them right, the first step (1A - 1B - 1C) is a major addition to the north side of the field house, with ground floor (event level) locker rooms, strength/training room, retail, etc., a new mezzanine level with offices and other behind-the-scenes functions, and a new top level with suites, a concourse that becomes the access point to the north seating, and a deck in the corner where sections 19-21 are.

That's basically a full-scale reconstruction of the north side of the building, impressive.

The phase 2 is the one that gets me. It reads as removal of Her Highness Shirley's suites and turning that whole west end structure into a "club", presumably a big event space/social space?

But I'm confused by the south side changes, which look like a mezzanine concourse rather than top level one, or maybe both with a smaller one at the top? Hard to tell.

Meanwhile feels like the east end student section is a long time away. And quite an interesting idea, taking students out of the north side and moving them to the end. Don't think you could fill both the north and south sides with local/non-student support.

It's all a dream until they get the money in, anyway!
 
Very early odds for next weekend on the road has us as slight 1/2 goal underdogs for both Brown and Yale games. Seems to be based on home ice alone. A sweep by us would go a long way to cement what many of us feel has been how much this season we have progressed - Go Red!!!
 
good wekeend i love krawchuck so much composure for a freshamn friday dartmouth just wore us out since we dont have a main scorer we still need goals by commiteee
 
Can someone explain the genius logic behind having a t-shirt toss to celebrate a goal while play is going on? On Saturday we scored to tie the game and to go ahead in the 3rd. In both cases the Field House was rocking and the crowd was into the game. Then they announced the t-shirt toss and the crowd that had been aggressively chanting "Let's go Red" began clamoring for a cheap t-shirt and the focus on the game was broken. I suppose they thought that would help sustain the momentum in an otherwise boring contest, but on Saturday, when the crowd was already into the game, it worked in the opposite manner. They really should wait for the next break in the action, the way every other t-shirt toss is done.

The HFH in-game production needs as much work as the building itself....

ADAPT Nutrition Defender of the Week
Thomas Klassek (Fr. RPI) has been honored with the ADAPT Nutrition Defender of the Week award. The Austrian defenseman was dominant on the blue line Saturday night for the Engineers against Harvard in the Big Red Freakout. Klassek tallied three assists in the 3-1 win over the Crimson in front of a 4,450-fan sell out at Houston Fieldhouse. He currently sits second on the team in assists (12) behind teammate Luciano Wilson (14).

and we helped Hayden Stavroff get he Forward award. :(
