Actually, I was offering it to Baker. Plus, this was the playoffs. I have to step it up from the 20 I offered him in the holiday tournament. :D

If you had said this two weeks ago, I would have made the offer when I saw the ENTIRE D'Amigo clan at both Hamilton and Ithaca. Parents, aunts, uncles, even his grandfather showed up!

I believe the late hit was by Patrick Cullen (I stand corrected if that is wrong). It was a mean spirited, blind sided, late hit and I am glad no one got severely injured. That being said-we need a lot more of that kind of spirited stuff.:) If we are going to get called for all sorts of nit picky junk, the least we should do is make sure we deserve it. ;)

I honestly would love to be a fly on the wall for the ECAC coaches meetings this off season.

I have to think that officiating will take up the brunt of the conversation. My honest opinion is that officiating took a big step backward this season. I'm not saying this as an RPI fan, but as a hockey fan. I saw more missed or blown off sides call than 5 other seasons put together. Add in the basic inability to conduct quick, efficient face-offs was beyond incompetent. The general inconsistencies from crew to crew was the icing on the cake.

I know that the ECAC had a guy at HFH evaluating the refs at this weekend's series. He was taking a lot of notes...he almost ran out of paper.:eek:

The problem for the ECAC is, where do you go from here? You brought in a guy with stellar credentials (Stewart) and gave him the resources to right the problem. Where are the results? If we had a competent Commissioner who knew something about hockey, I'd be more optimistic for what the future held.

I dunno, Jerry's Game 1 drilling Zernyynkywxk in the solarplexis was pretty stellar. The kid was blowing snot bubbles on the Brownie bench for a good 2-3 minutes.:D

I will take your word for it, seeing as how I did not see them from my vantage point behind the penalty box.

Oh yes, they were there in force. I saw them pregame outside the locker room and then in their seats up above you near the press box.

A tie against Cornell is bad luck? Honestly, anything other than a loss at Lynah is somewhat impressive. You don't normally do well there unless your name is Cornell.

The Brown players truly behaved in an inappropriate fashion. End of discussion.

As you wish.

I guess it wasn't that big of a deal and shouldn't have been brought up in the first place. No big deal.
