Freshman (Tony Romano)

[BCrespi]

[quote DILLIGAF]plrd78 way to go on the personal attack.

I am not the one trying to be tough online like you toughguy.  What are you calling me out?  A Coward?  Would you teach me a lesson? You are a clown.  

I stated SUBjective opinions about Romano. I didn't represent them as anything other than my own and I didn't even personally attack him.  I have made an educated opinion that he will not complete his 4 years at Cornell.  Time will prove how accurate that prediction actually is, but it in no way maligned you or even Tony Ramono.  

Maybe you need to put down the Big Red Kool-Ade and take an objective look at what I wrote.  You are holding on way too tight to be objective or even rational.[/quote]

Fixed your post.  Can't wait for Friday...and I hope Romano scores 4 goals with 5 assists, 3 blocked shots and 7 hits this weekend.  Would that make everybody happy?  Let's just get a couple wins, eh?  

Oh, and by the way, Big Red Kool-Aid is the bestest Kool-Aid.  And don't let anybody tell you different.

Hmm...only if we roll a line of just one player...Romano, plus Scrivens or Davenport.  Hell, we could have Tony cover goal to ensure he has some defensive ability before he takes off for the major juniors in a few weeks.  Is there a too-few men on the ice penalty?

If that happens, he's definitely going pro.

listen, if he has the ability to put up those numbers, don't the Devils know that?  in which case, he is very obviously going pro immediately after this weekend.  the speculation surrounding the issue may, in fact, lead to his going pro before the weekend even happens!

Well, you have to have two goalies at least.  But other than that, I did find this on page 25 of the rulebook:

It is mandatory, however, that 18 players and not more than three goalkeepers listed on the official game report form are the players who shall dress for the game.

So you have to dress at least 18 players, it sounds like.  Other than that, I found on page 28:

g. Should a team start with fewer players than allowed and the  officials err in detecting this situation, any subsequently entering players shall not be eligible to play the puck coming from the player's defensive zone until that player has returned to the defensive zone or until possession and control of the puck have been gained by another player in the neutral zone or in the player's attacking zone.

But as far as I can see, there's no rule if the officials do not err in detecting this situation.  Interesting question.

The official is supposed to require you to have 5 players on the ice for a faceoff. If you fail to do so it results in a delay of game penalty. (Sorry, too lazy to find it in the rule book, but this was discussed on USCHO recently)

[/quote]I have to imagine that if, say, your team were on the road for the weekend, and they ate at, say, the Pizza Hut in Canton, and they all came down with, say, food poisoning?  In that case, they probably wouldn't make you forfeit the game if you only dressed 16 skaters.  But hey, the NCAA has a track record for being stodgy about unimportant rules, so I could be wrong.

If I remember correctly we were down to 15 by the end of that game because Wallace went out with an injury and it seemed like Downs played the whole third period.

[TShen]

Doesn't the rule actually state dress at most 18 skaters and at most 3 goalies? I thought a team can dress as few as 5 skaters and 1 goalie for a game. . . .but that's a recipe for a very long night.

Ah yes, I remember it well.  No, wait, I don't because I drove 2 hours in the snow only to find they were sold out after being told earlier in the day they wouldn't be.

Hey, Ned won a national championship at RPI skating only nine--but he probably dressed more.

Well, looks like I was wrong.  But TShen, no, you do have to have at least 2 goalies.
