Re: blackwidow - 1 year ago
Trotsky What was the source of the rankings? Evan Pace is a rising senior at UConn which probably means it is far from accurate and may also explain the poor ranking of QU at #42, not that I would mind that.by ursusminor - Hockey
Re: blackwidow - 1 year ago
Swampy Trotsky I would just like to add our lacrosse players from the working class are among the finest people at the university and their sexual proclivities are consensual. I thank them for their service. How do you know this? Is it from hearsay, or is it from first-hand experience? Trotsky is getting consensually serviced by lacrosse players but only with hands. This is certainly a weirdby ursusminor - Hockey

Re: 2022-23 Men's Schedule - 1 year ago
ugarte BearLover Number one priority should be filling the stadium. The whole point is the atmosphere. UConn is a good choice from that perspective. Michigan has the Ohio State football game that day, so their fans are distracted. Wisconsin probably doesn’t have that many alums in NYC? Maybe I’m wrong. Notre Dame would be a good pick, lots of alumni and I don’t think they play a football game thaby ursusminor - Hockey
Re: Opponents and Others, 2022-23 - 1 year ago
billhoward I suspect every Ivy, probably every ECAC team, has Cornell has one of its top three rivals. Cornell was certainly one of RPI's top three rivals when I was in Troy starting in 1964, perhaps even #1, and if not, then #2 after Clarkson. This was in the main due to the perception that Cornell had stolen Ned Harkness. It led to the so-called "Game that Saved RPI Hockey" in Decemby ursusminor - Hockey

jtwcornell91 CU77 And Denver scores 2, and then 3 empty-netters, to win 5-1 So the Belt and the National Championship are united once again.

Trotsky If you enter the portal is that it for your current team? You don't gotta go home but you can't stay here? (I know McDonald can't come back for other reasons.) I was wondering about RPI's Zach Dubinsky in that regard. He also transferred to Michigan State. Interestingly, the 4 transfers to MSU all came from the ECAC.by ursusminor - Hockey
Re: Opponents and Others, 2022-23 - 2 years ago
ursusminor dbilmes So far, 6 players are transferring out of the ECAC, mostly from the Ivies. Only 2 players have transferred in to the ECAC, one to Quinnipiac (surprise!) and the other to St. Lawrence. RPI has lost 4 itself already: Ottoville Leppanen to Merrimack, Simon Kjellberg to NMU, Zach Dubinsky to Michigan State, and Nick Bowman to Canisius.

Re: Recruits 2023 and beyond - 2 years ago
Having read many reports on Pirtle on Neutral Zone, I don't look forward to seeing him play against RPI. That is, assuming RPI still has a team. Shirley still has almost three months to destroy it.by ursusminor - Hockey

sah67 scoop85 I can’t recall Schafer so publicly berating officials after a game. He’ll surely be suspended by the ECAC. Or maybe he’ll receive an official “letter of reprimand” like RPI’s coach: Hopefully they also gave at least the same to the cameraman who was the cause of Coach Smith giving the finger.

Trotsky ursusminor dbilmes RPI scores on a textbook 2-on-1 break early in the second OT to send the handful of Harvard fans home disappointed. RPI goalie made 47 saves. It looked a bit like Houston East. (A.k.a. Galveston.) I noticed a lot of RPI fans and a lot of cheering for RPI during the overtime. Good stuff. Beat em again today.

And Marty T celebrates. $250,000+ a year in projected saving on the 24/7 security that protects Shirley from the riff raff in Troy.

Trotsky Dafatone Trotsky One thing about this weekend. If they do take care of business they will go a long way towards locking up a first round bye. Out of twelve ECAC teams, four have winning conference records.Yes, and if we can sink them both I think we will have cut the ropes between the top 4 and bottom 8. Not quite.
