Video of Vernon Vipers mustaches http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtPT0ZNF_v0. Zalewski is at 1:07 and interviewed on several other occasions. He appears to be exercising while being interviewed.

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread

Per USHR, a write-up of Jake Wood over the weekend:

Jake Wood, F, ’93 (Gunnery) 5-8/165—The RPI recruit was pretty good here. Small, but is quick, agile and makes a lot of plays. Probably projects as an energy player that can chip in offensively at the next level. Should accumulate a lot of points this season.

Was this a scrimmage?

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread

On Saturday, the Omaha Lancers lost to the Green Bay Gamblers 5-0. Mark Miller had interference and delay of game penalties. http://ushl2011.stats.pointstreak.co...gameid=1660392

Miller's line is now 19-2-1-3-11.

The Omaha Lancers fired their head coach Bliss Littler today.

http://www.lancers.com/leagues/newsl...581&page=57463

Heres some talk about it:

http://finishyourcheck.com/topic/581...bliss-littler/

Apparently Littler played a boring style of hockey and numerous fans got fed up with it. I wonder how Miller will adapt to a new style of hockey under different coaches.

Clearly, Omaha != Ithaca.

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread

Although, if that's the reason Mark hasn't done much of anything this year, perhaps we'll see him really step it up when he gets to RPI.

FWIW, Littler was one of the coaches for the US team at the WJAC's last month. In his first game missing from behind the bench Miller had a goal and an assist in Omaha's win over Dubuque. So we might see an increase in point production with Aikens running the team now however im not sure how much of a different style he runs compared to Littler.

I get the impression that Miller is more of a defensive forward/penalty kill type player similar to Joel Malchuk.

I could see that. Plus, my previous comment was a bit unfair, because you can do a lot and still not get on the scoresheet, hence why I had asked about the +/- a while back. Must be why Coach keeps stressing "process" in his press conferences.

It would be great if he indeed can fill that role.

Coming out of Jr.'s I wouldn't compare what Malchuk achieved with what Miller has done offensively. Different level of Jr.'s I understand. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/p...php?pid=100730
