Re: RPI Pick to Click 2013-14: Revenge of the Nerds
Congratulations to REDaero91! She had a stellar weekend, picking a most valuable Dutchman each day and getting enough points from Higgs on Friday to squeak past RKarger for the weekly win.
Friday,
Matt Neal (RKarger and RPIHFH) had himself a pair of third-period goals, pulling the Engineers within shouting distance, but they found themselves unable to close the gap.
Nick Cruice (REDaero) and
Jeff Taylor (nobody) also had 4 PtC point nights. Cruice scored the lead-locking and game-winning goals whileTaylor had the secondary assists on Union's other two goals. Gostisbehere assisted on Union's first two goals, but one-upped himself on Saturday, so he was better held off until the next day.
And, on Saturday,
Shayne Gostisbehere's (myself, cnor, MavHockey, REDaero, RPI fan 4 life, and TuteScrooge) two goals iced the game for Union before all of the pushing and shoving dominated the game.
Brock Higgs (ehf, Ralph, RKarger, and TuteScrooge) scored RPI's goal that evening and
Bo Dolan (nobody) assisted it, making each of them worth 2 PtC points.
Ralph, I saw no indication that Pontarelli was injured, but Vecchione didn't score any points anyway, so it didn't matter.
It was a rough week for 1988 as he went from winning last week to 16th this and dropped from 6th to 11th as a result. REDaero used her win to jump from 11th to 7th, while there wasn't much movement otherwise. RKarger has stretched her lead to 7 points over lugnut / Ralph, so she's trying to run away with the title early this season. Plenty of high scores this week and 14 of the 16 posters have at least 1 point each week so far, so there are no shortage of point streaks going on right now.
