The Horse

Actions have consequences.  So does lack of action.  The number of after the final horn incidents is disgusting.  A week ago it was the blindsiding of Cole Bardreau and now we have the embarrassment in Albany.


Has anyone else thought of forfeiting games as a solution?  I don't think this would be simple.  I wouldn't want to punish St. Lawrence or Clarkson (Union and RPI are there next week) for Union and RPI's shenanigans.  But a forfeit of an upcoming home game would tend to put a damper on this trend.  Perhaps a  draconian punishment would send the message that I think is long overdue.

Quote from: RobbWell, if the thread has come to the point of correcting spelling, it's "Appert."  Whew, just cleared the shark....

Sorry, I didn't mean to be mean, just that if someone was trying to find the blog, then correct spelling would help. I accept the Herb Alpert referenceand correction.::twak::

Forfeiting games seems like a bit of overkill.  Instructing the refs to issue DQs in these situations and backing it with increased suspensions from the league office seems the right approach. Seriously punish the players who commit these offenses.

You forget, Appert is a goalie.

Appert would never mess up his hair.

No additional suspension for Bennett.  Mat Bodie gets an extra game suspension in addition to his DQ. In addition to the players that had DQs RPI's Ryan Haggerty and Bo Dolan and Union's Daniel Ciampini get one game.

Thanks. That was my mistake. It's a good thing that the last site which I linked wasn't a porn site. ::whistle::

The ECAC has changed Bennett's suspension to 4 games and given Seth Appert one day off. Link They appear to have mixed up which team is in Canton and which is in Potsdam on Friday.

I still think that Bennett deserved to get the rest of the season off. I can't argue against the game given to Appert.

I like the  one post I saw from the finishyourcheck web site. It says that the Union coach looked like he was mad because he couldn't get in line for the buffet fast enough. Classic. Was also called Coach Fatty by same poster.

I applaud this. As I stated earlier in this thread servere  punishment is needed to discourage the extra-curricular shots being taken at the end of games.

Certainly not much. He did attempt to get to Bennett, and he could have gotten the team and some of his staff to stop fighting.
