I really wish I had your optimism and rosey colored glasses. I appreciate all the statistical analysis you provide but this team doesn't pass the eye test. Special teams are awful, they need to give up on their slingshot power play, defense consistently turns over the puck, and goal tending is a major weakness.
Thanks for all you do, but its extremely disappointing especially when other teams with newer coaches are having better success.
Bottom line with myself is the defensive core- is just not good absolutely terrible sorry no one is the stay at home defensemen to protect the goalie and has the killer instinct passion to defend they have looked totally lost every game I've watched or attended... all seem lightweights especially that #11 omg.. who scouted that kid sorry.....just frustrating yes some new young D coming in next season.. but gotta add a solid overall defensemen in off season through transfer portal is only hope there. Anyways thanks guys for your stats as always. Just getting angry that team is missing basics. Also the RPI media department needs some help missing information on posts like game on ESPN + and the time of game, and real line charts posted not the crap they have been using? Something is off at RPI. Weekend sweep now...Ha!! But Lets Go Red!
Also note on this weeks BB Sports, Coach Smith was asked about why no captains named and I believe Chris mentioned previously also he's going with the leadership approach with Strom, Lee, Gagnon, Brackett and Heiderman this season? LGR!
