I haven't been to Fenway Park in more than 20 years. Last time I was there, they still had the net atop the left-field wall.

It's quite a surprise for me to see, for the first time, what the wall looks like from the street since the Monster Seats were installed.

At least we didn't get shut out. *shrug*

Any thoughts on if they should trigger the buyout or is it basically SAs team until 20-21? Definitely have been on that side of the fence in the past 15 years and while I love getting wins it sure would be nice to see a nice competitive rivalry between the 2 schools once again.

I may be reading in to things too much, but Dr. McElroy is holding our away jersey. Clarkson has their home uni shown.

Those might have been the uniforms which were available since the others were to be used in LP yesterday. Then again, you may be correct.

Sure! We haven't lost by more than 5, we haven't given up double digits, we haven't been held to fewer than 10 shots, we haven't given up two shorties in one game... So many things to be "proud" of.

Just to jump off this point, this team is just unwatchable at this time. They don't seem to care, as a whole. If they don't care, I don't care.

agreed - will be interesting to see if anybody shows up this weekend.

After looking at the league block schedule for next season, it's very likely that your league home game vs. Clarkson will be moved to Belfast. It is tentatively scheduled for 1/13/18, and I'm guessing your students will be on break at that time. Also, with your road game at CCT scheduled for the 1st weekend of November, the league wouldn't want RPI and Clarkson playing only 1 game that weekend while the other 10 ECAC teams play twice.

There is some potential talk about making it a non-league game, but I wouldn't surprised if it ends up being a league game because the trip is financed by the ECAC, and if we wanted to make it non-league, we'd be on the hook for the expense.

It makes a bit of sense that the league would like it to count in the standings, but it isn't as if we would play fewer league games if it did not count.
