  • Re: 2013-2014 Union Dutchmen - Can U Three Peat?

    Considering its place in the standings, Union had more to lose by getting involved with the postgame antics.

    I'm surprised it got to the point that it did. That kind of stuff isn't what Union is about. Now the Dutchmen will be without at least two key regulars, a top line center in Lichtenwald and a star defenseman in Bodie, for at least one game. Time will tell what, if anything, is handed down on Rick Bennett. But you have to think there's a chance something will be. His absence wouldn't be a positive. He's better than what he showed after the game. Everyone has moments they would like to take back, and I'm sure that's one for him.

    Ultimately, neither side painted themselves well after the game.

      It was incumbent on Mr. Bennett to deescalate that situation, he chose not to. The physical assault on coaches and #17 cannot be excused. That was not what he should have portrayed to his young men and more importantly to the young people in the stands. I have no confidence in the league but your president should think long and hard whether this is the right person to represent Union's program.

        So coming onto the ice to congratulate your goaltender after a victory is no longer allowed? Hope you remember that the next time you win a game, regardless of the opponent.

          embarrassing yourself and your school and go back to being hated on your own thread...
          A pool of blood on the ice and stitches,,, sounds like a dive to me!

            Right, you don't miss a shift after a pool of blood, and get points on the ensuing power play. Quit exaggerating.

                Umm, there was still 1.8 seconds left and a faceoff to be taken.....

                  BS
                  The Rpi Coach Shoved Rb At Least Once And Was Taunting And running His Mouth. Knowlton Will Be Taking A Look at That As Well As Ths Player Who Was Given a DQ. He has had complaints from alums about
                  Seth Apert is a joke as a coach and couldnt teach a dog to go sg## on a newspaper. RPI will always bd a crap program with him around. outside the bs spin all you have is losses.

                  Union has the right guy, RPI does not

                  FYI, the Denver AD is still laughing ablut his name being "citculated" as a coaching canidate. never was on their prelim top 20 list.

                    If you remember....which obviously you don't, it happened with a few minutes left in period. He got fixed up in between periods. Blood, stitches and a dented in helmet cage is not an exaggeration. Curadi is an undisciplined player. That's why the ECAC was there watching his antics last night! FIRST GUYS off your bench last night did not go to celebrate. They went head on into fighting which is a major penalty for a bench clearing. RPI coaches did not even attempt to bring them back from the start of it all. No excuse for what Bennett did BUT, it can't be 6 players against an entire RPI bench.

                      I'll give you Haggerty started pushing. Obviously you didn't see the shoves that your scumbags were giving our players, and you see yourselves as the victims. I hope your team has to forfeit the season.

                        Again, they were coming off the bench to celebrate the win, and the fracas was IN FRONT OF RPI"S BENCH. Not only was it said by us multiple times, it was also said by ADK11 and Wholin1, two of the most respected Union posters by RPI fans, and by others who are fans of neither team. Reading comprehension is a wonderful thing.

                          It's pretty clear who started this one...
                          Yes, and it's pretty clear, once again, the refs let this crap escalate throughout the entire game and last night is the result. It happens every time these two teams play. ECAC refs need to be consistent thru the entire game. They can't make a call when they feel like its time to make a call.

                            You mean they should call your team's embellishments?

                              FlagDude just stop...come back to the RPI thread where we will just taunt you and get you all worked up over small things...Union will not have to forfeit the season, they aren't Vermont.
                              Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

                                Something tells me that the league was there because the offices are right down the hall from the ice surface. But no, that CAN'T be it.
