So the Bears next stop is "the house that Ballgame built" in Elmira. They will be facing their old coach, who many of the Bears players feel left them high and dry (from what I have heard). I'm sure it will be a pretty emotional game. Thoughts?

Re: Potsdam vs Elmira
If they let their emotions get in the way, they're in for a long night I think they will need to concentrate on playing hockey, Saul knows what HE recruited and what he faces.

Re: Potsdam vs Elmira
Wish I could be at the game on Friday. Potsdam and Elmira games have been fun for quite a few years now with the history the two schools share with Thomaris and Saul playing/coaching on both sides and now Saul coming back to Elmira after Ceglarski stepped down.
This would actually be a pretty good weekend of hockey to be able to attend with this game and then the Cortland game (with a stop at a real A&W) on Saturday. Darn job getting into the way of hockey season!
Alas I'll try and listen or watch live stats for the Cortland game on Saturday if time permits.The Poster Formerly Known as Purple_and_Gold10©

Re: Potsdam vs Elmira
Potsdam vs Elmira has always been a interesting game to watch over the past few seasons.
First Coach Thomaris returned to Potsdam to coach the Bears after leaving Elmira. Coach Saul likewise, as both gentlemen began their careers as ***'t Coaches with the Bears.
Elmira is a great program which I hold alot of respect for and their fans. Whom I have had the opportunity to enjoy a warm fire with a few years ago in Lake Placid. Very sincere and passionate fans.
The past few seasons the games between Potsdam and Elmira have been hard fought contests. A win by the Bears would be a great way to jump back into SUNYAC play.
Personally, I don't think Potsdam needs any extra motivation to play hard against a great program such as Elmira.
Firebush, since you are quite familar with both programs, I wonder where your loyalties lie?LETS GO BEARS!

Re: Potsdam vs Elmira
Let me recover after getting hit by that bus, thanks Saints17.... Even though I have a deep respect for Coach Saul, I can't say the same about Elmira. I am going to have to go with the Bears. On a side note any of you who are going to the game shoule stop by The Elbow Room. Best wings in town and former coach Ceglarski would serve you a cold one. For those not in attendance I heard that Elmira is going webcast the game.
