They are a solid group with good talent but few superstars (Rau an exception) and OK goaltending. Personally I think they got lucky last year but a repeat is tough to do for anyone and boasting on this board doesn't stir up the love for an already maligned red and black team. Let's see how they fair against Grand Rapids tonight. Heard GR has a strong goaltender and they are a very physical team with some big boys. Should be a fun game.
They just make the target bigger
Come on, you actually think players and coaches from other teams and EP look at this board for motivation? Whatever goes on here has no effect on the outcome of the game, it just is a source of hype for high school hockey rubes. The target is already there, they won state last year. A couple people talking them up on a forum has no affect.breakout wrote:Doglover wrote:EP is not the number one team in the state and I wouldn't think they'd want that bulls eye on them this early anyway.
