In this outstanding episode of Talkin' Neers, we talk about the Alaska trip both on the ice and off the ice, reflect on the first half of the season, look ahead to UVM and Army, and discuss how to turn around the team's performance in close games.  Our guest of the week is Assistant Coach Mathias Lange who talks about his experiences at RPI, playing pro hockey in Germany for 10 years, playing in the Olympics and what it has been like coaching in his first season.
