RPI Recruit Thread 2012-13 (Part III)

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2012-13 (Part III)

That's probably true. :) At least I now know the difference between a tweet and a twit. :D


I'll try not to post things that seem a bit personal, but ...

I assume that you had no problem with my posting "Sioux City Musketeers of the USHL" in post #791.

See, it is possible to teach an old dog.
 
Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2012-13 (Part III)

A rather lengthy draft profile of Parker Reno. http://www.inlouwetrust.com/2013/6/24/4457812/parker-reno-2013-nhl-draft-prospect-profile. Thanks to a WaP tweet for the link.
Lengthy but uninformative. Anyone on this board could have written a more a succinct writeup....oh, wait they did ! He should've just started and ended with WAP's excellent summary. I would think there is a limit on how many times an author can write "I don't know..." or " I couldn't tell you..." in an article where he is supposed to be informing the reader about a player. As a Devil-centric blog, he also failed to make the connection for the reader that RPI plays in the same town as the Devils - and yes Ralph by town I mean geographic region - I'm aware the teams play in different counties. :D

I was trying not to be critical, but I agree that there was a lot of uninformative content. He did spell Rensselaer correctly. :D

You took the high road RB...as usual. I was perhaps too critical. I guess I should've just said that it could have been written more succinctly and left it at that !:D

...thank you. After reading the profile I thought, "man, I should be a writer for that site". No reflection on RB or WaP but it was a weak profile with little info that was just repeated several times.

I always take the high road. When you're my height you can't see anything from a low road. ;)

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2012-13 (Part III)

Agreed. Though I'd feel better if the source was other than the THN, given their near-disdain for covering the college game.

So you are indicating that if Reno wasn't going to college he would be listed higher. :confused:

Personally I don't want to see him picked higher as we will have more trouble keeping him. That's higher than D'Amigo was picked, and we lost him after one year. I am not saying that he will necessarily leave after a year if picked at 114, but ...

....but Jerry had a final ranking of #67 (http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=31411) and IIRC, rumors swirled as the draft got closer that he may have had some type of back injury, which led to him falling to the 6th Rd.

Nope, not indicating anything. I have only a passing interest in the draft ...couldn't care much either way...as long as they come to Troy and stay awhile ...more than a year.:D I hope Mr. Reno lands in a great spot --but I'm ready to welcome him, where ever he ends up landing draftwise.

I wonder if SA will attend the draft as he did when Pirri and D'Amigo were picked.
