So for this coming up year's exhibition, who do you guys think: Nova Scotia or the Newfies? Might as well fill out the rest of the Maritimes. :p

Nova Scotia in honor of Justin Smith. :)

You know what would be cool? Penn State.

Today is 15 April 2011. There are 169 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.

Love seeing everybodys ideas of lines next season. Im thinking Haggerty will be more of a checking line guy. But I do know its gonna be tougher and tougher for coach to decide who ends up on the ice each night. Monday-Thursdays are going to be battles for ice time. Curadi and Leboeuf together would be an interesting pairing just in sheer height alone. I realize the speed issue putting those two together but Dr. D would have the biggest smile on his face with those two together. So many different D combos could be put together. This will make for some fun guessing games come October.

Lines? You don't even know who will be here next year. There have already been a couple of surprises in the student directory postings. Let's hope that all the ones in Ralph's list actually make it to Troy next year before trying to match them up.

By the way, JL centering a line with AAG and O'Grady? If you are going to spend time on trying to predict lines at least try to make sense and put the guy that could be the closest thing we have to a sniper on a line with guys with more offensive potential.

LMN line maybe? It's been talked about quite a bit on here. However you are correct that it is speculative at this point.

Great article from Tom over at the always informative, never boring Without a Peer.

BTW - A congratulations I think are in order for Tom, Gary and Ed over at WaP. They brought their multi-platform endeavor to a higher level and the RPI fanbase is more informed because of it. Cheers, gentlemen.

LMN is what I had proposed as an all freshman line-I was half kidding(just like the sound of those letters together in order)-but the more I think about it-Neal and Laliberte together could make a lot of sense:)

Well four years ago we had Helfrich/Polacek/Halpern (though kind of out of necessity), two years ago we had the people's line of D'Amigo/Pirri/O'Grady (and yes I realize two fo the three are superstars and the third is a great finisher), what's to say we won't do the same next year? It's quite possible.

What exactly is the problem that you have with talking about lines for next year? Nobody is asking SA to lock in his lines for the opening game of the season. There is no harm in chatting about potential combos.
