    Great effort, great team win. I was especially impressed with the two way play of the Two Jakes. Woods and JL were busting their tails all night blocking shots and lifting sticks in the lane...brought a smile to my face. That's when I knew the game was in hand. Highlight for me was Tinordi's pancake hit on th UNH kid at the blueline late in the 3rd. Tears of Joy !

      Stop making sense.

        Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

We'll file this one in your "Greatest Hits" folder, under "Too Many Captains."

          Apparently we can make his head explode by just pointing out the following.

          RPI beat Sacred Heart
          Sacred Heart beat Lowell
          Lowell beat Michigan
          Michigan beat BC
          BC beat RPI

          Derrrrrr.

            You do know that a couple evenings before, they did tie, right?

                That was my thought also but after 5 games that year I think Brad had 10 goals and 2 assists. We were at the game at UNH that year (game 5 of the season) where he scored an unusual hat trick-a power play/ an even strength/ and a short hander at the end.

                  It sure seems like the drivel is getting heavier.
                  Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

                    Years ago i posted something similar using the football team to show how with matchups we should be able to beat Notre Dame that year. As you rightly point out-it is all an exercise on paper. Means absolutely zero. When and if we paly Minnesota how we do will depn\end solely on how we match up and play that game against that team on the ice.

                      When we finally beat Middlebury back in 1965 to end our winless streak, someone went through a similar exercise to get us ahead of ND. IIRC, it was quite a lengthy chain.

                            Anyone who beats BC 6-1 after what they did to RPI would get my #1 vote. Of course, rankings before November don't mean much. And has Minnesota played a road game yet?

                              And Union didn't get a single vote. Life can be good..

                                Can't really fault the poll all that much this early in the season. Although i think Yale is a very good team-as far as i can tell they have yet to show it on the ice so their votes have to be somewhat based on expectations and last year's performance. 10 is a very comfortable spot for us to be at this time of year.
