The obvious marquee weekend of the season for Hockey East is near. Both teams looked unbeatable until early December and have each had a few hiccups the last month or so. I look forward to watching Friday's game on NESN and hopefully taking in Saturday's game up at the Lake. Cop out prediction, each team wins at home, but I wouldn't be surprised with any result. I'd be happy with 2 points this weekend.

Marquee weekend thus far! I'll take the aim low, shoot high approach and say that I'd be happy with a point this weekend. No predictions, but a sweep would not be good on the heels of an up-and-down December. Especially After Dartmouth getting swept this weekend. Still a skeptic, but enjoying the results.Signature line intentionally left blank.

I've been looking forward to this game for a while; it'll be the first game I've made it to in months. Will be watching the game on Friday in between sets at a gig.
Predictions: Flaming starts tomorrow
Friday: 4-3 BC (OT)
Saturday: 4-2 UNH (ENG)
Sunday: Patriots 31, Texans 17I haven't been on here in a year...
Now I'm a dad. Holy crap.

I don't think you'll see much flaming following a game in early January. Leave that to Gopher fans. If one of these teams takes three points, my money would be on BC, but a split seems most likely to me.

BC has hit it's typical mid-season slide and it will probably take a few more weeks to really get back on track, especially with Alber out and MacLeod just getting back.
Gaudreau's return will be big for this team and I expect the top two lines to start controlling games again. That guy left a big hole on the top line and it trickled down from there.
The ramaifications for PWR and HE standings should be more than enough to get the energy going after a long layoff and a weird trip to Minnesota.

Originally posted by goblue View PostI'd be satisfied if your predictions hold up, but I wouldn't be surprised if Friday's game ends up being 5-2 BC (ENG.) I also suspect that, unless it ends in a tie, the flaming will begin after Friday's game -- especially if BC wins big. BC posters are typically the Molotov tossers, and as there seems to be some degree of discomfort among their lot, they may be choosing their words carefully, in case they have to eat them.*****

Maybe if UNH steals a point this weekend you can raise a banner for it.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

We already did raise a banner in tribute to your 8-1 drubbing at the hands of MinnyUNH Hockey: You can check out any time you like but you can never leave!
