    I realize it was Brown but a good win nonetheless. We need every point we can get.

    Nice to see Joe O'Connor net his first especially after he hit the crossbar last night. Also good to see Fortunato have a great weekend. While I still think he's too timid with the puck maybe scoring twice this weekend will allow him to put more rubber on net. Even Kevin Duane played a better game tonight.

    Last home weekend of the regular season upcoming. Where did the season go? Hopefully they get into position to extend by at least a couple of more.

      • Hello gang....long time reader/folllower of Q forum on this board
        First time poster...i was at Yale game standing right in front of yale goal in 3rd period....BOTH penalties should have been penalty shots IMO. Germaine and McMaster were beyond last defender 1v1 with goaltender.

        Anyway much bigger topic.....what in the world could Aldworth have done to get dismissed ??? I know he doesn’t back check with enthusiasm and has never blocked a shot....BUT he was your most talented offensive player
        Makes ZERO sense to dismiss him....another thing how do you go to two NCAA finals in last 5 years with completely different rosters and NOT land top 2 tier players???!!!! I know top 1 tier recruits are going to MN, ND, BC and BU but Q recruiters are not doing a good job
        Being ranked several times #1 in the coaches poll over the years for an extended period doesn’t draw interest???? I don’t get it...we need new recruiters...NO excuse for not landing top end talent
        All these forwards coming in and only Oden gets time??
        We sure could use these other freshman without Aldwortth, Smith,
        and now Mick. Don’t know how the program dropped in talent so fast it seems overnight. Anyway just needed to vent after Yale loss
        We dominated game, played an entertaining style, looked explosive...but we lack snipers.

          You don't know anything if you think he is the Bobcats best offensive player. Odeen Tufto is by far a better player than Aldworth will ever be. And it made plenty of sense to dismiss him for what he did.

                  He has speed yes but he didn't play hard at all. You see him flash one game and you wouldn't even hear from him the next 5. I only scout hockey in the Northeast for a reputable scouting service thank you very much.

                        Good thing Yankee baseball starts! They are not having fun, and dropping kids off the team is big...lot of sleepless, churning nights. Have not seen any change from beginning of the season to now. Lost season.

                            Lost season is very fair. When I was a student at QU there were a couple years the team fell off a cliff in the second half, a couple years Rand's message just wasn't getting through. It will get through to another group of kids, but for whatever reason there are just some years where nothing works.

                            And the thing all those years had in common was a leadership void. It wouldn't surprise me if there was a major leadership void on the ice this year. Hopefully we can fill that in 2018-19. It really shouldn't take this program long to get back on track, hopefully we can rebound next year.

                              I have no factual proof (or any inside info) but I do not think that was the case this season. In the past you could feel the disconnect on the ice. This year, as has been said since the start, seems to be more about lack of talent and guys not buying into the systems. Maybe there's a lack of accountability which I suppose could be construed as a lack of leadership, but the glaring deficiency has been talent. Several players just haven't lived up to the hype. Yes... I've finally accepted the lack of talent argument.

                              Last night you could see the entire years struggles in the middle of the 3rd. Battling back to tie the game early in the period they showed confidence and poise, and were seizing the momentum. Then Union quickly answers to take a 3-2 lead and the wheels literally fell off. All those SOG's and nothing to show for it. The "fun" was gone and it was all out panic mode as the Dutchmen drove the in final daggers.

                              The coup de gras might just have been the 3 teams in front of us all winning last night.

                              It really shouldn't take this program long to get back on track, hopefully we can rebound next year.
                              Those who know me know I'm the eternal optimist when it comes to this program. They will figure it out and be back in the hunt.
