How 'bout this: We leave, form a new conference with us, RPI, Miami, BU, Wisconsin, and Sacred Heart.

We could call it the Big, Red Hockey Conference (note the comma). whistle

When you're on the open water, you can't really tell that your boat is up.

I'll make a guess that Cornell would not have received its at-large bid without having strong teams in our conference. All of our OOC opponents finished with a record below .500, and we went 5-2 in those games. The highest-ranked team we played on our OOC schedule finished at #30. **They did not make the tournament because of OOC opponents.** They made the tournament because they were able to play 15 games vs. teams in the top 25, ALL IN-LEAGUE, and they came out of it with a winning record in those games. That's why the at-large bid was in play at all, and if they were in a AHA-level league, they're on the outside of the at-large bubble.

That has always been my argument, and I don't understand how this isn't apparent to you, even after a season like this.

Our league wasn't particularly great this year--we had three of the worst teams in the country. Going like 20-7-4 overall was what got us into the tournament, not going slightly over .500 vs. the top-25. But that's beside the point, because all of this is priced into the PWR--the same PWR that put us into the NCAAs in, for instance, 2002 and 2006, when our conference stunk (also see in 1996/1997, where we probably never could have won our tournament had we been forced to face the Harvards and Yales of today). My point remains that Cornell wins the ECAC less, makes the NCAA less, and gets the same or worse recruits than it did when the ECAC stunk. We got crushed in our NCAA game--a worse performance in the tournament than we ever had when the conference was bad. OTOH, we're coming off a good year and the future looks relatively bright. Anyway, it's my fault for bringing this up again. **]

I would not expect him to give a negative opinion about the search process in his position. If other schools hire the same company in the next couple of years, it would mean it was a good idea.

It is good to hear that he ahs contacted some alumni who were dissatisfied.

Of course I don't ever expect any kind of negative in this type of interview. However it seemed like he was being very descriptive about why he thought they were good. He could have just said, "I thought they were very thorough in the way they researched me.'

But I think you're sort of correct that if we see other schools doing the same, it might show that this is a good idea. Following along doesn't always mean it's a good idea.

IMHO, Rodriguez is the only one of those four who will be a loss, and he hardly produced in two years. Incoming freshman Linden Marshall on paper is better than Hackett, and the other two (McBain and Rappaport) did not play at all.

As to Nanne, the injuries severely limited him, and he probably decided that he would be better off as a small-e engineer than being forever compared to his grandfather.

Melanson's departure after getting a degree in the three years was set in motion by disagreement as to how he was used by Seth Appert. When he got an offer from BU it must have seemed better than RPI even with a new coach at RPI. I suspect that he will fit in at BU.

Supposedly Bradley Bell has also left. He also had trouble finding a place in the lineup, either as a defenseman or a forward.

Without a Peer post on RPI's team next season. BTW, it looks like Tom won't be posting his Know Your Enemy articles this offseason.

I guess news about opponents' women's teams also belongs here.
RPI fired John Burke who has coached the team since the D-3 days. [www.troyrecord.com] The RPI AD stated that he fired Burke now as opposed to earlier since he was busy with the men's hockey coach replacement. As has been said elsewhere, the ability to multitask is apparently not a qualification to be the RPI AD. Also this doesn't explain why he still waited over two months after Dave Smith was named the new men's coach.

This article on Ryan Donato brings up an issue that I really hadn't thought about. Scituate’s Ryan Donato waits for his turn.

With the NHL not allowing their players to play for the Olympics this winter, some very good college players may lose some of the season, playing in the Olympics. Since it's right at the end of the regular season, Feb. 9-25, it could have a significant impact on some teams.

We'll have to see who gets selected.

Olympic teams train for several months; college players who make the cut would likely take a leave of absence from school for the spring semester, if not the entire year. This obviously isn't true in sports that use pro athletes but it is for other sports. Rebecca Johnston is a good example; she took a leave the first time she made the Canadian team.

"Gray joins the Saints goaltending corps after spending last season with the OJHL's Toronto Patriots. In 30 appearances he made 28 starts with 1743:36 minutes played, posted a 15-14-0 record, a 2.99 goals-against average and .914 save percentage. He also had a 2.84 goals against and .917 save percentage in four playoff appearances (1-3-0)."

The funny thing about that is the fact that St. Lawrence has two games in Wisconsin this upcoming season and Hayton would likely be starting against his old team twice.


In any case, I wouldn't be surprised if St. Lawrence were fighting for home ice near the end of the season. Even with Hayton, they haven't exactly been a top-tier team the past few years.

I had a free ticket to last Saturday's game and I am mad at the guy who gave it to me.

And the daggers are already out for Morris after, what, one and a third seasons? Pretty impatient considering his past results, if you ask me.

It's taken Casey quite a while to right the ship at Clarkson. The SLUsers would do well to consider Morris the same kind of long-term hire. Whatever one might think of his reputed interpersonal skills or lack thereof, the guy wins. And, if I remember correctly, he knows how to run a clean program.

SLU is in a bad place right now. They lost some talent to graduation after last season but I don't think too many people expected them to be swimming in the toilet of the conference. They obviously have some offensive ability but have only won one game (a OOC in Wisconsin...go figure) since their season started in early October.

People here commit suicide when we give up a goal and call for Schafer's head after every loss.

People are fucking stupid.

One thing we have in our favor is Colgate. Picked to finish 11th in the league, now Colgate is looking like it will be playing in March. Having a tough travel partner is an asset.

Everyone is forgetting they lost the ECAC GOTY, Kyle Hayton. He was not expected to leave and didn't announce till the summer, when SLU couldn't easily replace him.

They currently have the worst GAA and worst SV% in the league. Last year with Hayton they were third in GAA and first in SV%.

Last year they scored 2.81 GPG and GAA was 2.24.

This year they scored 2.00 GPG and GAA is 3.96.

In a nutshell, that's it.

You were smart enough take a screen shot rather than retyping it all. :-)

How did you include that? I didn't realize you could upload your own image here -- or did you upload it someplace else and then just reference the URL of the image?

Some OOC games that could be of significance down the road--Harvard in Minnesota for 2 games and RPI hosting Notre Dame for 2 games. So far, the ECAC (for the most part) has done decently in OOC games and many more will happen within the next month.

I'm not expecting miracles in Troy. But RPI does look better with Smith at the helm. It would be fun to see them pull an upset - they don't have the talent to win a fight with the Irish.

I hope I'm wrong. It will be fun people watching those with ND jerseys in either case.

RPI is fighting like Irish but guns are empty and ND has a great D. PK is near perfect. Engineers did kill a major 15 sec into the 2nd and minor with 4 left in 2nd but that's it.

Still 2-0 after 2.

ECAC page messing with us again. It initially had the score as 2-0 Harvard, then "updated" it to 4-0 Minny. Maybe Donato had another tantrum and they assessed his team -2 goals.

Fox Sports Go app lists this game along with a replay today at 2 of what I assume was yesterday's game. Android Playstore rating for this app is poor.

You need a valid cable sign-in to access the video content.

While downloading this on Android do not update the CHNews app without a backup of the prior version. I had all sorts of forced close issues with the 320 version yesterday. Reverted to 315 late last night.

I'm sure you are right. I pay for extra sports channels including Fox college channels. Last night featured Maine over BU from Orono.

At 2pm FCSP with P for Pacific is showing last night's goofer-sucks replay on my cable package.
