Long-time reader, first time writer here. Love the site, (particularly the positive, constructive posts) and really appreciate the depth of knowledge people have for hockey in general and the Big Red in particular. I would have just remained a reader but I noticed the other day (Tues. 3\27) in the Syracuse Post-Standard Sports that a Ryan Kindret signed with the Memphis Riverkings of the CHL. Usually the elynah faithful are all over this type of news so I waited 'til now to write. I went to the CHL website to find out more but couldn't come up with anything. Anyone know if it's thee Ryan Kindret; can't think there are a lot of professinoal caliber Ryan Kindret's out there. If so, we may need to look into signing one or two more recruits than originaally anticipated.

Press release mentions it here: [www.oursportscentral.com] It also talks about how he came from Cornell University, so it is the Ryan Kindret.

Did Kindret see the ice this year? 1 or 2 games?

4 games. 11 last year. Perhaps he didn't see much chance of getting significant ice time here, so he decided to try to continue his career in the C.

Wow. As the lone person with a Kindret jersey I've been disappointed that he hasn't been given more playing time. I guess it's best for his hockey career to leave.
As for recruiting, I don't see how this has much of an impact. With the backlog we had this season at forward, it's not critical to find a replacement for someone who saw so little action.
Anyone know any more details?
Edit: team site says it's an "Amateur Try-Out Agreement for the Playoffs"

He got more of an opportunity than Connors did. Now two of Connors's teammates from Nichols are headed to the Frozen Four playing prominent roles for Michigan State.

I think the coaching staff intentionally recruits moer players than can play on the ice at one time. Having extra bodies means you have depth in case of injury and also creates competition for playing time. It's a lot easier to motivate some guys if you can hang threat of being scratched over their heads.ebilmes

One consequence of this is that some guys aren't going to get ice time and may well want to leave the program in order to play more. Since these guys are the lesser players in the coaching staff's estimation (or at least less suited to playing the system) they are the most readily replaceable.

I will say that I heard the same rumor about Milo before theforgottencowbell's post, although it might be from the same second/thirdhand source, so I wouldn't exactly call it confirmed just yet.

wow. That would be big news, if true. I thought Milo was really starting to play well as the season wore on, and I imagined that he figured quite prominently in this teams future. I can only imainge that it would take a highly irresponcible act to get him thrown off the team (if there's any merit to the rumor.)

A two-time letter-winner in baseball, he was selected to the Gopher All-Conference team in 2004.

This may belong in the other sports forum, but since Milo's baseball career is mentioned here, two-sport athletes had a good day today vs. Brown. Football QB Nathan Ford went 2-3 with 2 RBI and a run scored (plus 1 HBP). Milo went 3-4 with an RBI and a triple.

(I figured he was DH/PH (how can someone start two games in the infield and get zero chances> but I didn't want to look it up.)

The National League in MLB is the only league in the world (high school & above) that does not allow a DH in some form today. High School, college, Cape Cod League, the Olympics, Japanese Leagues, Korean Leagues, Latin American leagues all use the Designated Hitter. With interleague play, even the NL teams play a significant number of games with it.
I'm not saying I agree one way or another, just stating fact.

The college DH rule is even more extreme than the AL one. If the starting pitcher bats for himself and is relieved, he's allowed at that point to become the DH. So the game can start without a DH and then get one later.
I forget what it is, but there's some substitution that ought consistently allowed involving the DH, but isn't. I think it involves the pitcher pinch-hitting for someone who's not the DH. If the DH takes a position in the field on defense, that's what effectively happens, right?

Nice try. I am counting it (I was the official scorekeeper for the NYS American Legion Tournament one year):
[www.baseball.legion.org]
[Q]F. Designated Hitter Rule. All Senior National Tournaments shall use the American League Designated Hitter Rule as published by The Sporting News.
All Junior games, regular and post season play, may use the National High School Federation Designated Hitter Rule, with one exception: The American Legion does not permit re-entry to a game, therefore the DH may not re-enter the game[/Q]

Well that would explain why there are currently 16 (as apposed to the usual 15) forwards slated for next year.
At the same time, it doesn't make alot of sense. As has been mention earlier in the thread, he's currently playing baseball, so this can't be about an academic or conduct infraction. And if it's about him playing baseball, well schafer knew that Milo was going to pay two sports before he brought him in. Why would he change his mind now?
It's a shame if it's true, the kid is talented and I thought he was really starting to put it together down the stretch.

RPI gives scholarships, right? If you cut a kid, you take away his scholarship. That wouldn't be the case here. If the rumor is true, Milo can continue to attend school on the same terms as before (and play baseball).ursusminor
RPI's Seth Appert received a lot of flack recently from him for cutting two players.
FWIW, Milo is now 10 for 22 with a SLG of .727 with 2 steals in 2 attempts. He is leading the team in BA and SLG, albeit in a bench role. Maybe he was cut from the hockey team because he wants to make baseball his #1 sport. Even if Schafer accepted that Milo would be a two-sport athlete, hockey would be the top priority. [/speculation]

Not that it has ever stopped any of us, but it's futile to speculate about the reasons in the absence of even an official announcement that he's gone. For all we know, the coaching staff is letting him blow off steam and will quietly let him back on the squad later in the summer. As he is a talented player, I'm hoping this is the case.

If you offer someone a scholarship coming in, it's like a four-year contract. The school agrees to foot the bill for four years and if the kid doesn't work out, that's the luck of the recruiting draw. Or has that rule -- understanding? common agreement among scholarhsip schools? -- changed.
You can drop the scholarship for rules infractions, misconduct, flunking out (I think).

I know. It just makes him sound like an immigrant from Krypton.David HardingIn converting the print article to the Web the IJ system seems to systematically retain the line-break hyphens.ugarteWhich, in light of the IJ article, is a little embarrassing.JDeafv

Does anyone have any solid information on why Milo won't be playing hockey for the Big Red anymore? Very surprised he won't be playing anymore given the hype he came in with and the amount he played as a freshman.
Have there been Red hockey players who played another varsity sport at Cornell?

Bill Murray played soccer back in the early 70s, IIRC. Dryden played shortstop for awhile. Players didn't train year-round like they do today.

I didn't get to see Milo play too much. My lasting impression of him is the CU-Harvard game on CSTV. He skated around a Harvard defender like the defender was standing still - twice. Based on that, he will be missed. Are we that full of talent or did he do something bad?

Do I remember correctly that Brock Tredway (mid-late 70s) played soccer too?

Joe somebody was expected to play lacrosse, but wisely chose ice hockey.

and was All-Ivy.
When Ned coached both hockey and lacrosse, a lot of hockey players played both sports.

The only bad thing he did was play baseball!
To dismiss a solid 2 way player like this for playing a sport in his off season is moronic by schafer. But maybe in Schafer's eyes playing baseball is a lot worse than rape.

Bill Murray, a defenseman almost as big and almost as talented as Doug Murray, opted not to play soccer his senior year to concentrate on hockey. Unfortunately, this was the least successful team since 1966 (give or take 1971) and I believe never got beyond the first round of the playoffs. This was the turning point for the the team - it never regained its glory for years and years.

Matt Herr played both hockey and baseball at Michigan. He was drafted in both sports I believe, though he was a much higher hockey draft choice.
I have no idea if the allegations on this board are true, but I would be a little disappointed if Mike didn't let someone talented play two sports. I'm not convinced that it is true.
