Re: RPI Offseason Thread: 7 Months of Drivel

You RedHawks fans sure talk a lot. Your offseason drivel thread is longer than our CCT season thread already.
 
Re: RPI Offseason Thread: 7 Months of Drivel

All the great coaches of our time did not have a particular style that they had their team play as far as X's & O's, as much as they had a particular style of mental preparation. Ability to adapt being one of the key elements. Coaches that used particular styles gave other coaches means to defeat that style. IMO there is a difference between the great coaches and the great innovators.

I wonder what it will be like if we win and attract bandwagon fans like the place a few miles west on Rte. 7. :)

You mean the Achilles High School basketball arena. I'm actually surprised 40% has any fans even now that they are winning. I remember when I used to post here regularly, aweise was the only one who would admit to being a Union fan. As much as we may not get along with each other, I'll at least say that RPI fans are quite die hard, just like CCT fans.

52% of goals.
40% of points.
70% of PPGs.
71% of SHGs.
60% of GWGs.
45% of penalties.

The two forwards that can actually score are leaving. And both were free agents. I believe this says A LOT about our team's offensive capabilities. That is, the pros don't trust us. Why do none of the defensive players leave early? Drafted goaltenders I can understand.

Also it might show that SA can indeed develop players since they weren't draft quality when they arrived.
 
Re: RPI Offseason Thread: 7 Months of Drivel

Good grief. Talk about a small lineup now. I'm guessing A-Rod comes this year now.
 
Re: RPI Offseason Thread: 7 Months of Drivel

Wow. Well, best wishes to those who are going off to follow their dreams. Make us proud! :D

We certainly wish all these guys the best and look forward to seeing them in the NHL.
However, this leaves us really short at the forward position next season. The 2013/14 freshman class are going to get thrown into the fire early and often next season. I hope they were paying close attention while they were sitting this year.
Expectations for next years team has taken a turn for the worse.

I wonder if SA has another recruit ready to sign like Rodriguez two days ago. I doubt it, but we can hope.
