I guess that there was an ugly sweater contest too.

Gornall will be eligible to play for RPI after the Holidays according to this: https://undhockey.areavoices.com/?p=107990 but a comment in the Tweet above says next year (which could be January I guess).

On second reading "after next Christmas" means the middle of next season.

....especially a 24yr. old (will be next Oct) who’s never been a big time scorer & is another sub-6'

Truly weird, isn't it? Maybe we are recruiting for the ACHA team also. BTW, he was a teammate of Carlos Fornaris in the NAHL.

Shirley won't like it if she has to buy a lot of new glass. :D
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

There is, of course, the possibility that Brad Schlossman mixed up RPI and RIT. :)

OK I'll bite... how the heck does that work in terms of "redshirt year"? Does he actually get one, or not because it's in the middle of the year?

Gornall is in the directory

Schlossman said that he will be able to play 1 1/2 years at RPI. Since he entered UND in 2015-6, that would graduate in 2020 from RPI, it sounds like he does.

Maybe he'll make the hit at Clarkson. :p Definitely not Union, though... if they're hosed from a girl throwing T-shirts from an ice resurfacer, I'm not sure they'll have any panes of glass on standby... ;)
 
Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

With all the possible 2018 recruits, it starting to look like this years Buffalo Bills. Get rid of all the guys connected to the previous coach and GM and bring in your guys. I don't wanna try to take a guess who may or may not be here in terms of current roster players come next year.

Given how the forwards have either been "hamstrung", glass, or signed early, this wouldn't surprise me one bit. We're now up to 22 forwards.

I won't want to guess either. I do have ideas, but I wouldn't want to post them. It wouldn't surprise me if we if we have a larger roster than this year but not 22 forwards.

Given the forwards we have now, only a handful have been productive. So it wouldn't surprise me if Smith was looking to bring in his own guys.

Here are the current Forwards that would be here next season that were SA guys; Tironese, Hayhurst, Resigner, Wiffen, Marrello, Jespar, Emil, Burgess. I could see Marrello & Resigner not being asked back. Possibly Wiffen. Outside chance of Jespar but would you risk Emil leaving if that occurred?
