Re: Yale Hockey 2010-2011 thread
That one play at Ingalls was pretty much out of character for Flanagan. I actually think "Little Flanny" is dirtier than his brother. Historically SLU is a clean team that does like to skate. It will be clean but the guy to really watch out for is Wick, the kid hits better than Albert Pujols!!!! The winning goal for us in the Princeton game came off a thunderous hit by Wick that freed up the puck and let Essery score the game winner.
As to the Ylae spelling..........you have to know the story behind the story. It is not a SLUr or knock on Ylae. Many years ago before streaming video, B-2 networks and such, a core group of ECAC die hards used to listen to the games on the Internet Radio feed and while listening be in the "Yahoo ECAC Chat room". Whenever anything happened we would quickly type in a post. In our haste, Yale often got a typo spelling of Ylae and after all these years it has stuck. It's sort of an inside joke for those of us who used to listen and post in that old chat room. Take no offense from it.
Rumor on the street is Ylae only gave SLU 100 tickets for the games. Can that be true? We normally have a good turnout at Ingalls as their are a lot of SLU alums within close driving distance.
Here's to a fun, clean and fast skating series and hoping you don't blow our doors off.
So........you're the one other guy that plans on going to AC. For most of us moving it to AC sounded the death knell for a multi-year consecutive streak of attending the ECAC Finals (regardless of who got in).
