    Re: Union Hockey Offseason Thread - That was fun...

    Yikes, that's not a good schedule. Why are we still playing AIC? I get the hockey community thing, but there is no reason other than goodwill that we continue playing them, it's a waste. Pretty disappointed.

      I'll miss not going to Lake Placid like last year, but maybe the Catamount Cup is an option. Has anyone here been to Gutterson Fieldhouse before?

        Clarkson/SLU are playing in Lake Placid for a NC game this year if you really miss it.

          A couple years ago i went when i was about 10,close intimate feel,passionate fans, a little bit like Houston Field House (feels like an old barn type of rink) with the seats closer to the ice and not as far up...a UVM fan shushed my lets go red cheers just in time for RPI to score the winning goal ...not a bad place to see a game

              You may want to re-think that first sentence.

                Can't be any worse than some places I've been over the past ten years with the Icers....can it?

                    A couple tips: Go to the bathroom BEFORE going to the NYSDOT salt building, and hopefully you enjoy TSA-like patdowns.

                        Not much to say on that besides that it's a major dagger. He was the big fish in the recruiting class.

                            Agreed that it is a loss, and I won't bite on sour grapes. Still I hope it's not a TJ Fox type move for him. We'll just have to shrug it off as best as possible. I wonder if we'll come up with a last minute addition like Andrew Buote who came in late the summer before his first year.

                                http://flyers.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=632276 It's official.. OUCH!

                                My bet would be that the coaches either stand pat with the 3 forwards committed or possibly accelerate '13 recruit Nick Cruice. As much as Johnston would have been very nice to have, the cupboard is stacked with returning forwards next season and one freshman isn't going to make a huge difference. Cruice plays a power forward type game and could add depth, meanwhile the coaches can focus on getting another top forward for '13.
