I would think it's OK if we're trying to make a comparison to an alum, because it's a similar situation where we've learned something. That having been said, I am concerned that perhaps Melanson spent too much time in the small pond, similar to the growing pains that Laliberté saw his freshman year. I know the coaches will help him with that.

Correct-Melanson's experience at Delbarton is difficult to quantify-his biggest competition that he faced was almost never the opposition-it was getting ice time on his own team. Compared to the competition they played they were usually loaded. And many of the boys who have gone the ECAC route from there had very little problems adapting.

Agreed-i think a second year at RPI would have helped both JD and BP. I know whoever was advising them felt at the time the decision they made was correct but I just sense that their value coul dnot have decreased any with another year in Troy and perhaps even increased. As far as their respective chances for the NHL-who knows what this lockout is doing to that and the longer this goes on (and it does appear it will continue perahps for the entire season to be lost) it gets even more complicated.

At this point I am not convinced that BP would have been better off if he had stayed. He seems to be progressing well.

On Saturday, the Alberni Valley Bulldogs defeated the Victoria Grizzlies 3-2 in overtime. Evan Tironese scored two goals, including the game-winning overtime goal, and added an assist. He was named #1 Star. :) http://www.bchl.ca/leagues/hockey_boxscores.cfm?clientID=1413&leagueID=2393&gameID=1102950&link=bchl

Tironese's line is now 23-10-14-24-24.

Tironese's OT goal. IMHO, he also handled the puck well prior to the goal.

Sorry, I have fixed that. Yesterday's game was the one that was streamed. The game vs. Grand Rapids on 12/20 will also be streamed.
 
Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2012-13

so no Edina game tonight (wed.).....next streamed game will this Sat. night.....http://www.mnhockeycenter.com/view/mbhsh/news/news_60270 The final live game this week on the MNHockeyCenter.com will feature the Edina Hornets traveling to Maple Grove Saturday night for an 8pm game. The Crimson opened the season with a pair of losses at Wayzata and will be looking to bounce back with a steady effort against the Hornets............Sorry if I confused anyone (except for myself :o ). I thought the inital post from the other thread was posted at 6:30 am today. Looking back it was yesterday :o :o

I think he'll be jsut fine. He is competing well and getting plenty of ice time on a team stacked kids going to top schools. I couldn't help but notice that Omaha wins the prize for roster / size disparity. They have 6'6 211lb. forward captain Eli Lichtenwald (uncommitted, by the way Doc :D) and 5'8 130 Bobby Gaudreau...brother of that other tiny kid who'll never amount to much...:D

Lichtenwald very recently committed to a certain college about 15 miles west of Troy. :)

Edit: Gaudreau has committted to BC.

BTW, so far Melanson has an assist this evening. I'll post the usual wrap up later. He seems to be picking up his game recently.
