I just saw his report on the 6:00 newscast. UGGH!!!!! Catalon teased that he would have more info and comments from Appert and York on the 11 O'clock broadcast.

UGGGGHHHH!

I was wondering why SA did not give Bryce the call for the third period once this one was beyond hope. Certaily it would have been good experience for him. Perhaps he has some information that we do not have that this was the swan song for York? I am just thinking out loud-but it would have been nice to see Bryce get 20 minutes in the NCAA tournament.

Looks like last ecac team going out. Yale on the ropes.

Interestingly-Allain switches goalies for the third period. I like the move even though this one cold be out of reach. BTW the O'Neill call was absurd-it was not an obvious hit to the head and he did not deserve a major and game misconduct.

Andrew Catalon from Channel 13 tweeted Coach Appert saying York is 50-50 on deciding to go pro or not. Oh boy here we go.

If it were indeed the swan song and SA knew that, wouldn't he be even more likely to give Merriam the experience.

I thought about it both ways-I don't know. I cannot really figure out why he would not have put Merriam in for some experience at the tournament. BTW I do not think York is ready to turn pro(but then again I felt the same way about Pirri and D'Amigo)

Sorry Wholin1, more than just a watch.....more like sit back and watch both go pro. Good luck to them as they both have served their respective teams well.

York has already been drafted...but it sounds like he doesn't know whether he wants to go pro yet or finish out his RPI career with that last year of college hockey.

The article states that we will lose eight seniors. Unless that is a mistake, that would have to include Malchuk who was supposed to come back for a redshirt year. IIRC, he wasn't even honored on senior night.

He was honored on Senior Night.
 
Re: RPI Off-Season Thread 2011: There Will be a Title Here Next Season

Today is 27 March 2011. There are 188 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 1 October for the start of next season.

That is the day that an exhibition game is supposedly scheduled.

I have been told by a most reliable soure that Joel is coming back. He could be one of the leader of this team-hopefully he will be back. We got a litle taste of NCAA tourament action this year-next year we need to follow that up with another appearance and hopefully as a higher seed.

Just a quick question regarding the ND game which someone who was there might answer. I don't recall seeing Koudys on the ice at all out there. Maybe I missed it but with Le-beef scratched, I expected to see Koudys a lot. Did he get hurt early? I would have expected to see Koudys a lot in the 3rd if he was available.

I asked the same question on the game thread and was told that he had been on the ice in the first period.

I am pretty sure he was out there towards the end, also. Just didn't get a much time on ice as the upperclassmen. And wasn't it Patty they were talking about being valedictorian of his class and wanting to come to RPI.
 
Re: RPI Off-Season Thread 2011: There Will be a Title Here Next Season

And now just my $.02: I don't think we embarrassed ourselves at all, we were in that game until late and in the end, the bigger,faster,stronger team that was supposed to win, won. My goals going into the season were to get 20 wins and to win the ECAC championship ( leading to an NCAA appearance). We got two of those and thats alot more that what we could say in other years, I would have loved to see a new championship banner in the fall but theres nothing to be ashamed of. The graphic they put on T.V showing our record since Appert came in says it all. Our time is coming,this team will get better and will win championships. Ive been going to RPI games since 1998 (not following them closely until about 04) and never have i been more proud to be a RPI hockey fan.
