I guess Jeff managed to miss the Dartmouth boys attrocious behavior at the Houston Field House when RPI pummeled the big green into submission (I believe the final score was 9 to 4 even though Masotta was in goal) two weeks earlier. The many cheap shots and attempts at injury at the end of the game committed by the green boys were a blight on what would have been an extremely enjoyable game of hockey with stellar performances by a wide variety of RPI players (even a hat trick for Mr. O'Conner). If people intend to bad mouth other people's teams they should first check their facts and not go making insulting remarks ( Those in glass houses, etc...). Just sticking up for my team, Bryce. P.S. sorry about the previous "boo hoo" post, I was just venting some steam.
