I'm trying to not engage with this stuff but you're feeding the anti-Cornell trolls with this type of thing. Can we please not root for players who bail on our team? I know you don't mean it in a bad way/view it differently but not sure we need to be openly celebrating the success of guys who quit on us.
buddy you need to accept that people feel differently than you do about Robertson leaving. not everyone has been sworn to a permanent blood feud. he didn't divorce you.

obviously some people think that transferring out is not an unforgivable sin. we got two good years and he made a choice that he thought was in his interest. sounds like normal human behavior.

as is yours, to be clear, but jfc stop lecturing everyone about how much more bitter they should be.
Not telling anyone to be bitter. Just asking if it's really necessary to be celebrating his success on Michigan. At this point I'm trying to take the middle ground and just ignore him.

to be very fair BL, you did kinda mention in the Casty/Walsh thread that there are a ton of considerations to going pro early vs finishing at Cornell. many of the same apply to transfers. he made the decision he felt was in his best interest, as a hockey player and as a person. I don't hold a ton of ill will for that - especially because Veilleux is arguably better side-by-side.

I don't really go digging in Mich stats to point him out either - but when he has a good game in front of my eyes, well, I'd be remiss not to mention it.

(and as for the trolls - tbh the worst troll we've had before reopening the forums was arguably me or you lol, I forgot we have newcomers now 😂)

I'm not hating on stereax, I think it's good to be positive even if I fail at it a lot. I gotta say though that rooting for dude who transfers out feels very out of whack as a sports fan. He didn't divorce me but he divorced my team! Let's try our best to ignore our exes.

Quote from: stereax on March 29, 2026, 05:53:34 PMThe "Screw BU" song turns into "Let's Go Blue".

Actually that's probably the original version.  I believe BU then adopted it as "Go BU", to which we responded "Screw BU".  Although, TBH, the BU version may have come first and Michigan adopted it.

We added the "XXX, too" at the ECAC tournament at the Boston Garden in 1981.
I was at that tournament.  We beat Colgate in the semis, lost to Providence in the championship game. Fun trip to Boston and the Gahden.
"What... is your favorite color?"  "Blue. No, yel--auuuuugh!"

I get it! but I suggest assuming the lotus position and finding inner peace instead.
