SLU 2010-2011 - Until Moko Comes Along This Will Have To Do

Re: SLU 2010-2011 - Until Moko Comes Along This Will Have To Do

Not disagreeing with you about Allain's attitude - but it seems you are forgetting Yale's ECAC championship only 2 years ago - a 5-0 smoking of Cornell. I'm still trying to forget that one.

I imagine got6 forgot that weekend for similar reasons, after Yale came from 2 down I believe in the final 2 minutes or so to beat SLU in the semi's.

Yeah, wonder how I managed to block that out of my mind so effectively. We are trying to forget the previous night were we gave up two goals in the last 1.5 minutes.

All I can say is whatever....the lack of toughness, the chirping, the taunting, the arrogance...it is hard to feel good about Yale after watching that series. Clarkson was 100 times more classy in defeat last season. I have never seen a team in this league do that since the old Union team that we used to get in the playoffs 10-15 years ago and they would just run at you all night.

For the belly laugh of the day on the Yale thread, they are complaining Rondeau didn't make one of the all league teams...cripes if not for Rondeau they might not have lost all season!

It would seem Calof will win ROTY over Carey given the fact he also made the 3rd team and Carey did not. I'd rather have a goal-scorer any day personally.

As for the back and forth about last weekend all I know for sure is that that style of play is not SLU's style. I don't watch Yale enough to know what their style is but they are not big and strong enough to be truly tough the way Cornell is. Even having said that, I can live with the players in an emotional battle with the hormones of a 23 year old or younger guy, but the behavior of Allain leading the pack is actually quite sad. It was clear to me they didn't respect their opponent or the game and eventually that will catch up with them if they don't change their ways. I have talked to a few Yale alums and the word they chose was 'embarrassed'.....their words, not mine.

This is a bit harsh, I suppose, but the way to stop all the chirping, whining, etc. is simple - the refs. give each team a warning/reminder before each game and, if anybody chirps thereafter, assess a 2 min. minor. That will put a quick stop to that sort of stuff and, if implemented, #2 for Yale would be a fixture in the penalty box. I sense that Yale's constant chirping, whining, etc. will come back to bite them at some point in the playoffs.

Got6 is right - Clarkson was as classy as it gets during last year's playoffs. Kudos to George Roll and his team.

If Rondeau did not let that 80 foot goal in at the beginning of Game one in the quarters we would be looking at a 2-0 Yale sweep of good old dirty SLU, that's right dirty. Your team came out dirty in period two in game two and got spanked because of it. You complain about whining and have continued to whine for days on end about this series, please get over it.

For ****'s sake, if you don't like it, don't come read the slu thread. Fact of the matter is both teams played garbage hockey on Saturday, neither team was better or worse than the other with the dirty play. Got6 isn't completely wrong, you aren't completely wrong.

Anyone know the last time SLU didn't have a player on the first-, second-, or third-team All ECAC list?






Must be 'cause they're so dirty.

Big congrats to Captain Aaron Bogosian who has signed an ATO with Springfield of the AHL. I wish(ed after the Yale series) him nothing but the best in his future endeavors, and hope that he can stick in the AHL.

He is a heck of a skater. Very impressive last weekend, alot of the Yale crowd were commenting about him every time he touched the puck, we were all afraid of his speed and passing.

The ECAC has anounced Calof as ROTY. I rather have Carey any day of the week. Wonder what the Yale and Princeton coaches think of Carey???

Typical. How could the ROTY come from the 11th place team?!?!?! Whatever, SLU got the last laugh by ousting Princeton, I think Carey would rather advance in the playoffs than win an individual award.

Re: SLU 2010-2011 - Until Moko Comes Along This Will Have To Do

I think that if the playoffs had some influence on the voting Carey would have been ROY hands down. Look forward to seeing how he improves in the years to come, he had very impressive accuracy with that wrist shot. Regarding Yale and their fans congrats on your season, enjoy your team and their recent run of success over the past several years. I think both fans have their opinions on which team played dirty last weekend. They were just hard fought games with both teams playing hard. Yale probably should have swept the series, but friday's game was one of the best games I have ever seen in all my years of watching SLU hockey.

Re Friday's game, ditto for me. And, I've been at this a lot longer than most - the big 60 is not far off. LOL.

But he did, and you lost to us again, so shut the **** up.

You are a great representative of your team. Totally classless in victory just like your coach.

It was Yale hockey alums that were embarrassed by the BS from the Yale players and coach. As a Saint alum, I was not embarrassed and think Yale set the tone for the weekend. The SLU - Princeton series, nor either series last year got nasty, only Yale. So Yale is the number 1 seed so you should win it all right? All I know is if, by the Grace of God, Yale and Union are playing for a trip to the Frozen Four I hope Union mows you down.

I don't think Carey put up the points in league games or had enough of an impact in the RS to take it from Calof who did have an unbelievable season and is a great young player. BUT, the clutch goal scoring he showed in the playoff and the fact that he had 23 goals as a freshmen is something every coach would covet. Any coach would tell you that you can't teach goal-scoring and I haven't seen a shot like that in college hockey in a long, long time. I might actually put up more of an argument about Baker not making the rookie team and I must admit a bit disappointed for George Hughes who was a pre-season first team pick and struggled at times this season as did the Saint defense as whole.

Lotta class in that first sentence!

Lets just agree to disagree, there is obviously no reasoning with you on the subject of the Yale SLU series. .

No, let's not.

First off, I am not disagreeing that the SLU - Yale Series this season was an ugly spectacle. It was. What we don't agree on is why. I think it poorly officiated and Yale came out embarrassed on Saturday night and didn't stop chirping on the ice or from the bench from start to finish and one of the worst offenders was their classless and arrogant head coach. And, for the record, Yale lost on Friday night because SLU beat them which showed pure heart and determination from an SLU squad that had played three games the weekend before on the longest road trip there is in the ECAC.

Your comments are the same arrogant BS as Yale showed setting the tone for Saturday and Sunday night. Usually one has to skip over to a BC thread to find the level of arrogance and entitlement the Yale faithful are showing here. In a million years I can't imagine a display like that from a Tim Taylor team...maybe the class left the program when he was chucked under the bus.
