Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

That's a bit worrying. I know FlagDUDETTE was especially concerned, as he didn't return to the bench. I guess we'll see in the lineup chart; if Perry reads this (or jericho happens to talk to him before the game), would it be possible to ask about it during the pregame interview?
Jake’s left arm was in a sling tonight. I don’t know if it’s his shoulder or arm.

Three thoughts on this:
1. I kinda like the look
2. Get enough traffic in front of a goalie with those socks and shoot low and it has to be tough to find the puck
3. Which one is Waldo?

I thought that Waldo is in Cornell's band. :)

Congrats to the football team on winning the shoes for the 5th straight year and earning the Liberty League title and an NCAA playoff berth!
Now back to hockey....

Before we go back to hockey-RPI football got what it deserved. After an extremely hard fought season including a terrible beating by Hobart, they showed grit and determination and won 8 of their ten games. Indeed deserving of the League Championship and now a bid to the NCAA Division III Tournament. Prob ably will draw a powerhouse in the first round and will be seeded in a position that it might take a team like Notre dame to win, but they are in the tournament and I suppose, as happened about a decade a go, anything can happen. Great job done by the boys and wonderfully work by the coaching staff. Go Red!

We aren't ranked in football, and it's 32 teams that qualify, so we're almost assuredly traveling. If travel is taken into account, we might be able to draw Brockport (highly unlikely). Maybe we'll get to play Delaware Valley (Doylestown PA). However, it wouldn't surprise me if we have the pleasure :rolleyes: of heading to Alliance OH to play Mount Union; don't know if we have any recruits playing in Youngstown, though, which is nearby.

What is the relevance of having recruits in Youngstown?
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

I think that this weekend was a good indication of what we can expect for this season.
We are young and learning a new system.
It is not like previous years when the upperclassmen are coming back to a system that they are familiar with and only the freshmen have to be brought up to speed.
Perry has been better than what we have seen the last two weekends, I expect that he will regain his confidence and play more like what we have come to expect.
We are going to be inconsistent for a while, but we should be learning along the way.
The one thing that I do like, is that we don't give up. We play to the end, no matter what the score.
This is not going to be an easy season, but when was the last time that we had an easy season?

Just glad we avoid Mount Union and Mary Hardin for the time being. Wesley is a very highly regarded team and it could all end in Delaware, but we have a chance. Having watched all the games this year, I have a lot of faith in our defense (against the run especially) and some faith in our offense to score. Will it be enough? Doubtful as i just do not think we can hold the score down enough and am predicting a 28-14 score against. But that is only a two TD difference against the number 16 rated team and a turnover here or there could make all the difference. This has been a very successful season and can only hope we can see the same by the end of March for our Hockey team.

They beat William Paterson 66-0, while we won 45-0. So it looks like it will be a 21-point loss. :D
