Utica Pioneers 2013: LETS GO TO PLACID!

Re: Utica Pioneers 2013: LETS GO TO PLACID!

Therrien is the only reason UC won. He was outstanding !!! Biggest crowd I've seen this year...loudest also. Winning goal and open netter sparked the loudest ovation I have heard there in "years".
 
Re: Utica Pioneers 2013: LETS GO TO PLACID!

I think its great that Utica has finally made it this far. This is going to be a great weekend!
 
Re: Utica Pioneers 2013: LETS GO TO PLACID!

Therrien really did come up with some big saves that held Utica in the game when at some points if it hadn't been for Therrien it could of been 3-1 or 4-1 Bowdoin.

They have a lot to improve on this week at practice, we're so close, lets just do it.

Yes and no. He also looked a little shaky in the 1st, and the second goal probably should have been stopped. He held them in it in the second period with some unbeleivable saves. He's probably the most under rated keeper in DIII. UC cranked it up a notch in the 3rd and was able to get the win. The ice was really bad and I think it hurt the flow of the game for both teams. LOTS of bouncing pucks. As promised, Bowdoin was a very fast team that forced UC's D into a lot of mistakes. #8 is one great player and came close to winning the game for Bowdoin a few times. And your right Shabby, I haven't heard the AUD rock like that in years. They were chanting in the street after the game and honking horns. Fun stuff. On to Lake Placid. Sec 7 for me on Friday, sec 6 Saturday. Can't wait.

Follow the bouncing puck, boys and girls.

Anyone look into a chartering a fan bus - I have used Wade Tours many years ago at a good price, I'm thinking someone involved in the student association might have some ideas - maybe ORDA too - given the game sold out, seems to me there has to be interest.
 
Re: Utica Pioneers 2013: LETS GO TO PLACID!

I believe you can use horns and spotlights as long as you do it for BOTH teams...but I could be wrong.

Excellent interview, but one thought - next time you are on tv, coach, how about an upgrade for the T-shirt...even if you haven't been to the big dance before, you can dress like it... (before you jump on my snarky smart a** attitude, which was on purpose...T-shirt for a studio interview? In the arena or the coach's office - no problem... In the studio? Need to be better-you are representing your institution, not just the team) OK - ready-fire-aim!

I think you are correct on the first point. Apparently they chose not to do it for either team. No one in my section seemed to question why they weren't going through the regular pre-game routine... so at least there were some knowledgeable fans there.

At least you point out that the attitude was on purpose! I see your point. He could have come straight from practice, etc. Hopefully it's because he is watching so much tape on Eau Claire that he hasn't been home since Saturday.

I agree. Get a tie and sport coat. Good interview just the same.

There is a ton in 8 as well.

Also, I did catch wind of the alumni event today as well... not sure if i'll be in or not, for i have a game to call.

FWIW, that's the first time I've seen Heenan appear in public while not wearing a suit and tie.

(But, after all, this is Utica, where a clean T is considered semi-formal attire.) ;)
