Just curious, how did Rappaport look assuming that he played? is he anywhere near being a D-I player?

I thought he was #15 (he’s #21) so I was watching the wrong player the whole time

RPI, with new coach Dave Smith, is 10th in both polls. The Engineers got 32 points from the coaches, and 82 points from the media...... https://dailygazette.com/blogs/parti...c-hockey-polls

and Ken Schott picked us 12th.

A “parting schott”. No idea where he’s going but.......

Congrats on the new job! You'll be missed on the college hockey beat.

Oh, that is what happened. If he completely divorces himself from college hockey I can stop following him on Twitter and won't have to see all of the Phillies, Eagles, and Flyers tweets.

Pick to Click!

This weekend's game is an exhibition for everyone so the points will not count, but it's fun to get started as soon as possible!

Not sure where it is. I was at the HFH for both the Womens game & the ACHA game & I never saw that. It might be in the locker room area? I did notice that they finally took down the Team Photo from when Rabbani was still here. It was hanging on a wall that’s out of sight between the 2 elevators. There you’ll also find the All American list, All Acad. & POY, ROY, etc. plaque.

Elevators? There are elevators at the Field House?

Last time I was at the Field House was for the playoff series against Brown in 2013, and to the best of my recollection, it was the same single-level facility it had always been.

When were they installed and from what level to what other level do they go?

Elevators serve Shirley's private party room (paying public need not apply for usage)--located on a mezzanine at the front door end of rink. Added during the last pseudo renovation. There is also a new digital scoreboard, among other things ...useful for showing E. Stewart Jones ads, but NOT replays of controversial calls.

Wouldn't be surprised if there's a league rule about not showing the replay during an official review for influential reasons. It's not in the NCAA book, but that doesn't mean the league hasn't mandated it. Plus, could it be interpreted as disrespect of officials, and has it been enforced somewhere else in the league as such? Just a little devil's advocate here...
