Re: RPI Hockey 2018 - 2019: 28 Guys Skate onto a Rink ...
Are we really talking about getting rid of the coach after less than a season and a half?
This team has made great strides under Smith. He has them playing much better defense and clearing out the defensive zone. The fact that they can't score has nothing to do with his coaching.
Burgess has at least one great scoring chance in every game, and he converts one in ten. Wiffen is another disappointment. If Polino is going to be our leading goal scorer, we are in big trouble.
And we are.
I can only hope that he has done some excellent recruiting for the upcoming seasons.
My only problem with Smith is how he handles the goalies. I think he has killed Marshall's confidence, and might be doing the same to Savory.
I don't know what Perry did to him, but he also is being mishandled in my opinion.
That said, I think we need to give him a little more time to figure this out, before we start a search for a new coach.
