[quote Rich S]You may do well to consider there are talented players worthy of accoldes besides those on your favorite team.[/quote]What the hell could you possibly mean, Rich? The majority of this thread consists of regular posters agreeing that a Cornellian as ECAC POY is nuts. As far as I can tell, nobody even responded harshly to daredevilcu's modest comments that, had the Knights not collectively spit the bit, Dodge would be a viable candidate (because, well, he is right).

Even a little ECAC-only analysis by Fenwick was done to defend TMM's choice of Dex as GOY (an award that anyone except Dov is eligible for).

Tilt at windmills somewhere else.

[quote Rich S]You obviously didn't agree with McDonald's opinion, hence your "what planet?" comment.[/quote]

And through your infallible clairvoyance, you divined - overwhelming evidence to the contrary, right in front of you here in this thread - that the only part of McDonald's opinion with which Age disagreed was the part where names other than those of Cornellian players were mentioned.

What color is the sky in your world, Rich?

Sorry but I did not read ALL the comments on this this thread, specifically those to which you referred here.

But I thought it was clear that I responded specifically to Cowbell's "what planet" post.

Thanks...no windmills for me.

[Rich S]

Glad you appreciate my brilliance mr. know it all.

Perhaps you can save your consistantly snarky rejoinders and let him reply himself?

And yes, how can anyone who follws the league realistically object to other than cornell players being mentioned?

I await your "clairvoyant" reply.

Later.

[CowbellGuy]

He doesn't have to be clairvoyant. Just read the rest of the thread. And if you're too lazy, here:

Jackass.

[Rich S]

Yeah yeah, I read it.  Ok so you guys disagree on Moulson as a POTY candidate.  I'm impressed.

And while I read it, I see you have expanded your vocabulary.  Says a lot about you.  Another wise guy know-it-all.

Priceless.  ::rolleyes::

I don't know.  Luckily, nobody did.

I think if I went on another team's forum, I'd expect to see some skewing in that team's direction.

Further, if I hung around on another team's forum for long enough (say, 2 years and 137 posts), I'd begin to see that there wasn't a monolithic group opinion, and that the regular posters varied all the way from Pan-ECACers to Carnelian-Colored-Glasswearers.

But then again, why would I repeatedly post on a forum of a team I didn't like and whose fans I didn't care for, unless it was to pull tails and raise a fuss?

[Drew042]

In an effort to return this to a ECAC POTY discussion...Although it is realistic to think that a Cornell player may win; the fact of the matter is that no one on our team is deserving of the league award.  Moulson has been absent for long streches of games this year.  McKee, although playing strong lately, still has too low of a save percentage.  
I personally would vote for Burton or Trevelyan. I was also impressed with Goecckner-Zoeller (sorry I can't spell his name) on Princeton.  
I think McCutcheon deserves some talk for our team MVP this year, but so do about a half dozen of our players (including O'Byrne, whom I maligned in the early part of the year), but will agree has been playing some of the best hockey on the team for the better part of 3 months now.

[Beeeej]

I agree that of the opponents I've seen us play this season, Princeton's GZ (spelling punt) displayed the most sheer tenacity and effort.  He actually reminded me a little of Paolini, in the sense that his skills aren't are refined or as obvious, but he puts more effort into every shift than any two other players on his team.

A lot longer than that.  I remember Rich from the days of the original Roundtable, c.a. 1996.
