Once Harvard recovers from its annual post-finals fog and stops shooting itself in the foot, Harvard will be a team to be reckoned with.

Actually there should be two assists. One for the right post and one for the left. I miss Age's video highlights.

Re: What is wrong with us this season? - 20 years ago
And in reply to myself, I would like to point out that if the members of the team don't expect to win they won't.by marty - Hockey
Re: What is wrong with us this season? - 20 years ago
This season reminds me of life, in general. If you expect too much you will always be disappointed. One of my now deceased cousins was quoted by my brother as "never having any expectations" - and therefore was always pleased with whatever good came her way. (She had a bit of a hard life but was always happy.) I know philosophy is off topic, but this IS a rebuilding year. If theby marty - Hockey

Hope to meet you in Albany, Ben. I think polite posters from the opposition are always welcome. And I rue the day that I corrected Rich S. as I think he has been lurking since then - for no good reason. He was fine as a guest IMO, too.by marty - Hockey

Re: Reflections on the weekend; thinking about the future - 20 years ago
They had talent back then but they weren't a TEAM. Their style has been absolutely abominable for all of Fridgen's tenure...until this year. The last time they were in the regionals that I can remember was 1995 (from memory-I could be off by a year or so). I am not sure what has gotten into them this year but it makes me think that the new Bioengineering push at RIP has shown some early rewaby marty - Hockey
Re: Reflections on the weekend; thinking about the future - 20 years ago
This is the best RIP team since the Fridge began coaching. He seems to have a good assistant coach-or two. ( Perhaps it's former Union player Andrew Will.) I have also heard there is an unofficial assistant who has helped them with their power play - which at times looked very good on Saturday. Also, to give the Big Red some credit, I think it is worth noting that they scored 5 on 3 and 4 onby marty - Hockey

Re: Polls - Jan 19 - 20 years ago
And I met some over 50 Gopher fans who were among the nicest people at the tournament. It really opened my eyes. I had a negative feeling toward Minnesota that began when their coach Woog(sp?) was bellyaching after every other loss. He left and the program blossomed, eh?by marty - Hockey

Re: Reflections on the weekend; thinking about the future - 20 years ago
I agree with both of these posts. I saw the game on Saturday and there was a lot to like in the Big Red. I hope that they use this as a learning experience and I hope that the shoulder injuries of which the Coach was quoted on USCHO are not serious.by marty - Hockey

I bought visitor tickets from the RIP box office for the Saturday game. I hope to sit in seats other than the ones I purchased, but I would rather that the rink is full and I have to stand. See you there.by marty - Hockey
Re: WSJ and Sports - 20 years ago
Right you are. In fact that bit of editorializing illustrates a trait that is all too common in the WSJ. It allows too much opinion in many of the otherwise superbly written articles.by marty - Hockey
WSJ and Sports - 20 years ago
Most of us don't get our sports news from that Wall Street Journal, but during the past ten days or so there were two articles that the folks who hang out here might find interesting. The most important to us concerned the D-III scholarship issue. It was written with the Johns Hopkins lacrosse team as the main subject.
