  • Rensselaer Engineers: Pick to Click: 2012-13 Edition

    Who's ready for a new season of Pick to Click? That's right, you are!

    I'm going to change things up a little bit this season.

    The top-scoring forward and defenseman from each team will be deemed ineligible. Ineligible players will still be determined by the number of hockey points that they scored (not the number of PtC points they've tallied).

    But, thanks to a suggestion from ehf, everyone will be eligible until someone from RPI has scored five points. no player may be ruled ineligible until he has scored at least five points.

    Pick one player per team per night that you think will score points. You can't pick the same player multiple times in a single weekend.

    If you ever run into a situation where you need to change your picks, please make a new post with the changes you would like to make.

    If you want to make a change in the middle of the weekend (or at the beginning of a game, before anybody has scored) because of an injury that happened the day before and/or was not widely known, always "err" on the side of being able to change your pick. Every case will be dealt with on an individual basis, but I will try and apply a consistent standard.

    Point breakdown by position:
    Forwards:
    Goal - 2 points
    Assist - 1 point

    Defensemen:
    Goal - 3 points
    Assist - 2 points

    Goalie:
    Goal - 10 points
    Assist - 4 points
    Win - 2 points
    Complete Game Shutout - 3 points

    The designation for whether a player is regarded as a forward or defenseman will be made on a game-by-game basis based upon the line chart on college hockey stats.

    As an extra incentive, the poster(s) that score the most points on that week's set of games will receive a bonus point.

    I will do my best to provide the scores on Sunday, along with the rosters and restrictions for the upcoming week.

    If you can't post your choices here on USCHO, email me (my gmail account name matches my USCHO account name), text me (if you happen to have my number), IM me (if I'm online), or facebook message me (if you know my name).
    Link to the roster and restrictions for the upcoming weekend (Week 18 - Brown (ECAC Quarters))
    Link to the scores from the most recent weekend (Week 17 - Clarkson, St. Lawrence)
    Link to the spreadsheet with the PtC standings

    Burgie, I appreciate the credit, but I did not make any suggestions regarding pick to click.
    That said, I do like to play along.

      Link back to the title post with details on scoring

      RPI hosts the Acadia University Axemen in an exhibition to kick off the PtC season. Exhibitions for the RPI hockey team will be regarded as PtC exhibitions as well.

      I don't know a whole lot about Acadia, so I'm going to decline to give a witty statement here. Last season, the Engineers thoroughly shellacked the Axemen, 7-0.

      You may not choose the following players for this game:
      Everyone can play!

      Statistics / Rosters:
      Rensselaer: 11-12 Statistics | 12-13 Roster
      Acadia: 11-12 Statistics | 12-13 Roster (link may be broken) Potential alternate link

        Thanks for doing this again, burgie. I had forgotten all about it.

        Unless burgie has changed the rules, which is doubtful, this is also open to non-RPI fans.

            Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

              Yeah! Click to Pick is back!

              RPI: Ryan Haggerty
              Axeman: Liam Heelis

              On an unrelated subject: My Pios will be playing their exhibition game on the road instead of home at Magness Arena. I think the hot air released during the quadrennial debate Wednesday night will be so thick the ice making equipment could only be counted on for mush/slush.

                  Is this for money? Kind of like a weekly football pool? If so sign me up and where do I send my check?

                    No money just the accolades of your fellow fans. I doubt that USCHO would permit if there was money involved.

                        The grand prize is as many pennies as you can carry (up to 5) to be paid by me at a date of my choosing.
