Re: RPI Pros V

That is really interesting. I guess that means that they have to go into next season with an inferior line up.
On another front, does anyone know it York is still under contract with the Blue Jackets?

No, Yorkie is an UFA and as of today has not signed on with any team. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=676637

Brad Tapper now the Assistant Coach of the Orlando SolarBears http://orlandosolarbearshockey.com/news/080713-tapper.php
That is where his career started after signing with the Atlanta Thrashers. He was part of the team that won the Turner Cup. Brad has also won a Calder Cup with the Chicago Wolves and a Kelly Cup(as assistant coach) with the Florida Everblades. I would love to see him win one more-so he can have a service for four.

When Brandon Pirri says he should be the Chicago Blackhawks' No. 2 center this season his intent isn't to sound cocky or to step out of line...... http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=679589&navid=nhl:topheads

Bryce Merriam was kept on Orlando's Protected List, wonder if he still goes there.

In his playing years, Tapper never had much good rapport with goaltenders preferring mostly to run them over.

Re: RPI Pros V

Some very insightful comments by HC, Troy Mann, regarding Eric & Greg. Sounds like Greg is expected to drop the gloves quite a bit this year. You can skip the 1st 1:30 on video if you want.............. “Erik is a guy we wanted to bring back, 100 percent,” Mann said. “It’s our job this season to make sure he gets an opportunity to succeed and get a legitimate shot at the American Hockey League level. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsFHWSPjY7U&feature=youtu.be
