Dartmouth Game

[upprdeck]

Union/RPi/Brown/Yale

if the stats mean anything 3-1 is the worst we want come out of this and with solid play 4-0..

If we are 2-2 then we still have a long way in league to go.


going 1-1, blowing the harvard lead, blowing 3 leads vs Dart. Thats gonna make them better this week than going 2-0 with so many mistakes would have.

Side note - did anyone else notice just how ugly Dartmouth's uniforms were? It seems we were playing against a bunch of guys in convict gear. Almost as ugly as the old Seattle Metropolitans jerseys from 100+ years ago (I'm sure the Kraken will wear something like that for a throwback night....)

I couldn't agree møre. I thought there uniforms ugly, too.

I'm not a fan of those alternate Dartmouth jerseys and much prefer their regular home whites, which are the best in the conference IMO. They did wear those alternates back in the last meeting at Thompson Arena IIRC.

Ugly? 2016-17 was when Dartmouth looked like the New Hampshire prison system rehabbed inmates through hockey but had to wear these for road games.

I am fine* with these stripes because they have a connection with history -- stripes were common in the early days of college hockey (rugby transplant maybe)?

 * Occasionally.  And never in the pros where thirds are just another way to milk the suckers.

This may be why I hate center stripes on hockey helmets so much (PSU, OSU, etc) since their only connection is to football.

my brother is a die-hard fan of Celtic FC of the Scottish Premiership and Dartmouth's jerseys are not as nice as   Celtic's Kit.

Apparently following sports teams off the beaten path runs in the family .

I remember watching a soccer match where one of the teams wore jerseys with black and white vertical stripes and a friend of mine pointed out they all looked like referees.

Honestly, I kinda loved them.

I'm on Team Hideous

I vote for prison garb. They look like they were designed in Engineering 101.

Princeton's orange on orange football unis?

Wouldn't be nearly so bad if they didn't get the orange color wrong.

Side note in which I avoid bagging on Dartmouth's awful prison garb:

I am grateful to whomever got it right that in our return to the ice no mistakes, as far as I can tell, were made with our uniforms. The arm stripes seem to be in the right place, i.e., below the elbow; the colors are good; and the numbers are properly sized. High marks, but it should never be difficult in the first place.

I'm not following.  Many, many schools have a single center stripe and they are fine.  The helmet is the only thing about Pedo State that isn't offensive.

What is horrific is multiple vertical stripes like the abortion that Ann Arbor Community College wears.

And then there's this turd:
