RPI @ Clarkson March 4 2012 (Game 3)

Doc, that just doesn't sound like retirement to me.
We seemed to have the better chances in the OT, but just couldn't finish. When Laliberte missed on the breakaway, I just knew it wasn't going to be our night.
As for tonight, we will have a rested Lee, and maybe Schroeder if he is healthy. Also have a couple of game tested reserves who could step in. Diebold should be good to go.
If we have our heads on straight, I think we have a great chance to come out the winner.

Have been semi retired since 2001. Still keep my license and continuing education active and do consultant work. I am not so worried about the length of last night's game taking it's toll-more concerned about the late hour and trying to rest and get sleep after all the excitement of the game and of course being on the road. I just think the biggest advantage Calrkson will have (and has had for the 2 games thus far) is making the last change. They can get the match ups they want. And with frequent stoppages in play for offsides and shooting the puck over the low height glass-they will certainly be able to take advantage of that. i am not sure that most observers realize what that can mean over the length of a game.
As far as starting Diebold. SA would be the best judge of that. He must know how much of a role confidence plays for that position. Sitting on the bench last night for 113 minutes could have made him pretty tired without ever being on the ice. I am just hoping for a well called game. Do not want to point at a questionable call as the cause for either team to end their season.

My social secretary(who never forgets anything) just informed me we have 2 possible High School games today to attend-one is at 3:30PM and local-the other is at 4PM and a bit of a drive. Not sure whether we are going to either-but if we do-will miss the early part of tonight's game for certain if not more (especially if either of these goes into 3OT like we did last night). Please post all the details using language I can understand (you know who I mean). I wonder who the ECAC will assign as officials for this important third game?

Doc.

If you have an Android or an iPhone, there is an application called "TuneIn" which allows you to listed to the radio over the net or cellwaves. WRPI is one of their stations.

As to the refs, after the OT debacle last night, it won't be those two. I would imagine that we may get the crew from SLU - Dartmouth.

Here is Casey Jones after the game:

Brick is truly a blue collar town. I am not sure that the majority of the population here has ever been taught to read. Most are transplants down here from North Jersey-probably the ones that they threw out from up there. It takes a while to get used to the vocabulary (what little there is). But it has remained a nice area to work and live within reasonable distance of the cities while retaining it's suburban appeal. Besides-when we really want to get away, we always have the Adirondacks as a 5 hour drive.

HEY! Glen Rock is coming down from Bergen County! Leave my originating county alone! :D Then is it up to Wall for Middletown South vs. Pascack Valley??? You poor bastahd!

Re: RPI @ Clarkson March 4 2012 (Game 3)

No matter what happens tonight for RPI, I just want to say that Im proud of this team for not throwing in the towel and giving up. It would have been easy for them to do that but this group showed that its made up of great young men who Im proud to say I support night in and night out. This series, more importantly last night, has added another chapter to the rich history of the RPI/Clarkson rivalry. Nights like this are what these guys dreamt of when growing up, who is going to step up and be that hero tonight? Time will tell.

This. Thank you for saying it so well. And it's great to see (post-game interviews, Twitter) that the guys aren't letting the tough loss last night get to them, and they have every intention of coming out strong and winning tonight.
 
Re: RPI @ Clarkson March 4 2012 (Game 3)

Interesting game last night. After watching the Denver versus Neb-O game, I tuned in to WRPI just in time to hear the game winning goal be scored by Clarkson. Should be a test of wills as much as physical endurance tonight given how far last night's game went into extra innings. Neither team will get much help from its bullpen tonight so the starters better be prepared to carry the load. ;)

All kidding aside, last night's marathon is one aspect of college hockey that makes games at this time of year so exciting even if you don't have a vested interest in the outcome of the contest. If tonight's meeting is another one goal game I hope the winning goal is undisputed and doesn't come as the result of a flukish play or bad bounce. Good luck to both teams.

Are we going to be able to get this to the third page before the game even starts?! :eek:

Yes, I realize I'm not helping matters. ;)

FWIW, 7 of 10 involved at least one ECAC team, and none involved the CCHA.

You cannot conceive of the stuff that moves down here from up north:eek:. Most have never driven a car and come down here where there is no public transportation. You can imagine what the driving is like. Middletown South has a very decent club this year. Brick is surprising-after a few years of futility they are again becoming a public school force. I doubt they will ever reach the levels though that they hit back 20-30 years ago.
No Android or IPhone for tonight and would probably not be able to hear WRPI at Ocean Ice Palace anyway. Glen Rock disposed of Chatham for us which was my choice to get here. Our other choice is to drive up to see Delbarton play Notre Dame. We hav e seen several of their games but no one has given them any sort of competition. They roll several good lines but if you cannot stop the Baiocco/Melanson duo-it can become one sided real fast.

I watched the entire game Friday and 4 periods Saturday. I don't think it is very good but that is because I compare it to RPITV which is just incredibly better.

Last night's Denver/Neb-O game was just fine. Quality was good and there were no technical problems from start to finish. The cost was $8 which I think is reasonable. Don't know if the RPI/Clarkson game is offered tonight or not, but based on my experience of last night's Denver game I can endorse the internet feed as being good.

It's "fine". We (RPI TV) bought the feed the last two nights and held mini-parties. Picture has low contrast, but otherwise Clarkson's WCKN production is a step above the usual single-camera no-zooming thing that some teams use for A1. It does sort of look like TV from the 80s, though. You also get access to all the other ECAC games occuring at the same time, so you can watch all three of today's games for just $9. Makes it a bit more appetizing.

We really are spoiled by RPI-TV. After all, not only has their crew been given the privilege of running production for Time Warner Cable Sports, but they're shoveling down to Atlantic City (I assume on ECAC dollar) to cover those games! They must be dam good if they're doing that.

Clarkson's camera are old and the picture quality fades as a result. It's a darn shame because people have offered to buy new cameras but internal insanity in WCKN and the SGA have prevented it.

Now RPI-TV is good, but Oswego's WTOP hockey coverage blows every school produced broadcast out of the water, Division I or Division III.
