    Re: RPI Hockey 2017 - 2018: A Wealth of Notions

    I think a weekend split is a perfectly reasonable expectation out of the weekend, and any more than two "points" would be a bonus.

    I think we have a definite goaltending advantage over Niagara (harder to say with RIT, especially if they play the freshman they used against NU), but goaltending has rarely been the problem with RPI teams lately. The fact that we only scored twice on 47 shots last weekend (or 3 on 79 if you want to count the exhibition) kind of shows that if we want wins, they're going to be of the 1-0 or 2-1 variety. It's obviously very early, but until we show that we can put three goals on the board in a game (or more than 30 shots in a real game), I'll have to remain skeptical of our chances, even against Atlantic Hockey competition.

        I just hope we don't split the hard way, like last week.

          Don’t know how he’s doing in practices but maybe try inserting Owen Stout into the lineup?

            I'll stick with Reds and Ambers, thanks. Although I do hear Full Boar has Imperatoria Tenebris Victoria, which is supposed to be a good stout...

              One more meaningless stat for the heck of it: We're 15th in Western Bias KRACH rating.

                I'll predict a sweep!
                I've been lost since 1989. I got a breakaway on a frozen river and have been skating ever since.

                  That would be nice, but until they start putting the puck in the net, I wouldn't predict anything.

                    I decided that I won't be doing it this year. Might reconsider next year but got a lot going on. Thanks to all the fans that participated for all the years.

                          My paranoia is telling me that you made this decision based solely on the fact that jenny and i have returned! Kidding of course, just glad to see you are back so you can watch the resurgence of the Cherry and White.

                              I guess that he likes it out there in MN since he played for Shattuck also. I am too lazy to check but I wonder if any former teammates play for Augsburg.
