A goal scorer's goal.

Which one? I'm losing track

We're a pretty good hockey team!

I think we're not half bad!

[fastforward]

Ok but like how are they allowing a dude who played ECHL and AHL games back in the NCAA?

Bizarrely, NCAA Division I hockey players can maintain eligibility after playing in pro leagues if they were not compensated beyond "actual and necessary expenses" (meals, lodging, gear). Players must not have signed a professional contract or received a salary, focusing instead on amateur, expense-only agreements.

Wouldn't he have had to sign a contract if he played a full season in the ECHL?

Don't think he met the games played threshold

47???

Recent NCAA rule changes and legal rulings have blurred the lines, with some players retaining eligibility after limited, and in rare cases extensive, ECHL/pro experience. Generally, playing under 10 professional games is considered safer for maintaining NCAA eligibility, but some players have received eligibility approval after playing full seasons in the ECHL and AHL.

Weird as hell. Fuck that guy. And the rest of Q too, while we're at it.

So many blue seats decided to show up suddenly

I hesitate to use the word payback against a team that consensus  believes is a notch above us, but we've seen what we're capable of on a good night. Let's Go Red!

nice to start reading the game thread at the beginning as I settle in on the couch with a 4-1 lead...

[ER]

Has there ever been a game against Q with zero penalties?

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Hey, Peckerhead.  Pull the goalie so Major can get his hattie.

Trotsky will find one from 1982...

[stereax]

Wait guys I figured it out
The thread date being in January made the team think they were in January and not February...

lol if it happened and he was there, he'll probably remember. These guys have memories like elephants.

Gorski with 2 minutes left still hammering away. I love this team.

"The Faithful have departed..." is an oxymoron.
