RPI 2026 Off-Season: Please Pardon Our Appearance As We Upgrade This Area

I've been told by a reliable source that the project is on schedule to be ready for the home opener weekend 10/9 - 10/10.
The women open at home on October 2, so I would hope the project was planned to conclude early enough to get in some practices on home ice before then. Is there an open rink nearby where they can buy ice time in the interim?
 
I am sure whatever temporary ice time that is needed has been secured. The City operates the Knickerbacker rink in Lansingburgh which was recently renovated with a new ice sheet after several years of not having ice. I would guess that is where the teams will practice in the interim. Albany County also has a rink near the airport and there is a rink at the YMCA in Delmar which is where the Devils/Rats often practiced. So there are options.

I wonder if Frear Park has ice yet? That would be closer.

I was gonna say I’m sure they have everything planned for off campus ice.
 
Opened up eliteprospects, and the first thing I saw on the front page is that Medicine Hat just traded a 1st round pick and more for Evaschesen...
 
Less than 24 hours away from getting him, was supposed to fly today. Unbelievable

Wow does that suck.... damn. With both Smith and Evaschesen it's certainly possible that the impending reality of the "student" side of the student-athlete equation became a factor in their 180s from RPI....especially as you mentioned being so close to reporting day.

Unbelievable is right and honestly pretty fucked up.
