RPI Off-Season Thread 2012 Part III: BYOB: Bring Your Own Bratwurst

I always have mentioned the women (first tomorrow) using the same date calculation as the men. Obviously this could be done on the women's thread but I have not done so in the past. This year the women are not playing an exhibition game, so they only start one day earlier. As to "honour", I prefer "honor". :p

If someone else wants to do do a countdown on the women's thread, feel free to do so, and I will skip them here. Otherwise I will continue as in the past.

DrD, you have obviously never had to sit through equal rights/opportunity/nondiscrimination/whatever courses. :)

The good ol' British spell-checker on the computer. Either that, or the computer noticed I typed "eh?" and switched it over to Canadian (which uses British spelling).

I don't think we need a separate countdown, but I was just wondering if we would be listing the women's players as well.

Sorry RB-I must have missed the day they taught Political Correctness when I was in school back then. Either that or I slept through it.:rolleyes:

They never taught it in school. No need to with a 99% male population. :D OTOH, at work we repeatedly received such training -- especailly after Tailhook.

In honor of Kelly O'Brien, today is 5 September 2012. There are 31 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 6 October for the start of next season.

That is the day that an exhibition game is scheduled.

I noticed over the summer that some schools have promoted their hockey coaches to asst. atheltic directors (Vaughn - Colgate, Dennehy, Merrimack). I wonder if this is in our great coach's future. COL Knowlton does an awesome job IMO and he and SA seem to always be on the same page. Let's face it, RPI is a hockey school and would'nt it make sense to make the head coach asst. AD like is what is happening other places?

Vaughn has been an Asst. A.D. at Colgate for some time. He even took a year long sabaticcal from hockey (with Stan Moore taking the reigns) to act as interim A.D. This summer, I think they bumped him up to "Associate" A.D. or similar...likely with a pay bump..which I'm guessing is the intent of the maneuever.

That's got a nice ring to it Ralph! The long off season is drawing to a close...can't be soon enough!

Wonder if anyone out there has heard anything from Capt. practices?? Glimpse of the frosh, etc. ?
