Re: OT: Slope Day - 21 years ago
Hmmm... it still sounds pretty fun to me and reasonably simple to get a drink without having to storm the slope (not that you shouldn't): 1) Get yourself a flask. Treat it like a fish. If I can sneak whole bottles of liquor into a post-9/11-scared Michigan Stadium, you can smuggle an actual flask past a few cops dealing with free reentry policies. Wear a coat. Put it down your bra.

Ah-hahaha, yes... Northern Michigan University is in Marquette, MI, so your confusion is, somewhat, excusable.by Scersk - Hockey
Re: WTF??? - 21 years ago
Hmmm... time to put on my townie hat and add some more context. My first Lynah memories are from 1985 when my Cub Scout troop watched the team play Western Ontario, the first game of the season. For some reason, that particularly good team only squeaked out a 5-4 OT victory, but, nonetheless, I was hooked pretty early. I've seen our penalty traditions mutate over the years.

Re: Jon Gleed - 21 years ago
Hmmm... see one game, miss 10 games: great percentage there, Chris '03. I would certainly annoint myself the head analyst of Cornell hockey with those stats. Gleed has made some freshman mistakes, but fewer than most freshmen. We might be putting him up there in the Burgoyne or McMeekin category before he's left Cornell. He is a *very* good player. Anyway, who else can "make them Gleby Scersk - Hockey

For comparison, let's look at the career of one Matt Cooney: Matt Cooney Yr Cl Po GP G A Pts PIM 1994 Fr W 12 0 2 2 32 1995 So W 26 7 3 10 52 1996 Jr W 34 13 21 34 104 1997 Sr W 23 9 9 18 45 95 29 35 64 233 Now, Cooney was certainly more noticeable than Iggulden--who exactly could fail to notice a guy averaging around 2 PMs/game?--but he was similarly not an offensive powerhouse over hiby Scersk - Hockey
Re: Bertagna column - 21 years ago
Wow, let it never be said that all Penn students are boorish, ignorant churls. Wouldn't it be great if each section introduced itself to the opposing goalie with some proprietary litany of taunts like the Penn student? I guess that all someone would have to do is get a few stalwarts together and pass out a cheer sheet... If I were currently an undergraduate, I would see that article as a warniby Scersk - Hockey
Re: "One time, at band camp...." - 21 years ago
Hey John, Which behavior is more lame? 1) Reading something for vicarious pleasure, and chortling a bit. 2) Criticizing something that one has read for vicarious pleasure when it hasn't provided enough pleasure. Lay off the easy targets, there, Sparky.by Scersk - Hockey
Re: Colgate's Band - 21 years ago
There are a few really good things about the current Colgate band: 1) They exist. Back in my day, they didn't, or at least I don't remember them existing. Now that I think of it, there was a pathetic little band one time when we went to Hamilton. In any case, going to Hamilton was like playing in an almost empty refrigerator that hadn't been opened in six months; it was very cold and thereby Scersk - Hockey
Re: Pierre - 21 years ago
Yes, Pierre was awful; yes, Pierre "has no hair;" yes, Pierre was perhaps the greatest figure of malice over my young college hockey watching world; but now I'll state it for the hereafter: I love Pierre Belanger. Pierre reffed what was, perhaps, the best reffed college hockey game I've ever seen, and even stranger is that he reffed it with the ref I hate most, Gallagher. The year waby Scersk - Hockey

Re: Why you (as a fan) should behave at a hockey game - 21 years ago
Boy, that guy who said those things about Elliott was an imbecile. Hmmm... but as I remember, everyone was constantly talking about how much better Elliott was than Skazyk. Maybe that profoundly dumb guy just thought Elliott was overrated. I... I mean... he must have felt pretty sheepish when Elliott proved him completely, unutterably wrong. I guess even great players have an off day (or anby Scersk - Hockey
Re: 2007 update - 21 years ago
McCutcheon, hunh? From Pittsford, NY, you say? Hmmm... that's near Rochester, isn't it? Looks like I'm going to have to say the name again.by Scersk - Hockey
Re: Thoughts on CU-UWM - 21 years ago
Imagine a rink much like Clarkson's but with better acoustics, i.e., somewhat ugly and antiseptic, but with a lower roof. Imagine my pleasure when I saw that there was a reasonable Cornell contingent already there and standing. Imagine my dismay when I realized that the whole crowd had been issued yellow and brown "Thunderstix." Imagine my utter disbelief at the "Thunderstix.&quby Scersk - Hockey

Unlike another Boston-area coach... Rich, of whomsoever could you be speaking? Oh, I'll say it: that Bruce Crowder from Northeastern is one prissy little ninny.by Scersk - Hockey
