Depends on who you're talking to. NY City people think that Westchester county is upstate.

I regard the NY-PA border extended east as the dividing line.

I think the dividing line should be the Bronx

In either case, none of our current recruits are from downstate, although two current players are (Burgdoerfer, Lee).

Trying to keep this on topic.

With my definition, we have one upstate current player, and zero upstate recruits.

Incorrect. We have one player from Northern NY and one from Central NY.

Central NY is not upstate.

Rochester is NOT upstate. CLEARLY Western NY. DeVito isn't even FROM New York State. However, Manley is also very clearly Western NY. Neither are north of the southern edge of Lake Ontario, therefore neither are upstate.

Darn city people who think New York State consists of 8 counties...

Never said it was. I dont't use the term "Upstate" its a misnomer and means different things to different folks...usually "downstaters" and city folk.

The generally accepted slang for the regions of the state are: NYC, Long Island, Hudson Valley, Southern Tier, Central NY, Western NY, Capital District, Adirondacks and/or Northern NY. The only real arguments are parochial squabbles over where one ends and the next begins.

At least we can agree with those; I usually break it down by pre-1992 area codes (back when the middle number had to be 0 or 1). However, I usually lump NYC in with the 914 area.

Ralph: Is there any chance you could list the NY recruits as to whether they are downstate or upstate??

Bourbonnais and Manley are upstate, All the rest are furriners, especially that Melanson fellow.

Neither are upstate. They are very much Western. The only person we have associated directly with the RPI hockey team that is from Upstate NY is Mark Miller (Massena).
