    BTW, NU appears to have picked up Austin Plevy from UMass. Must have been an outstanding student!

      Looks better and more relevant on resumes than camp counselor or BUsboy.

        I'd imagine he'd be motivated to go to one of BU's rivals. It wasn't that ridiculous to think Tkachuk might come back, so IMO Quinn looks bad in this situation. Who knows how upfront he was with Larsson about the situation, but on the surface that's a bad look. It's not like he made an offer to a graduate transfer and then had to pull it because Jack Eichel wanted to come back for year 2.

          Quinn looks bad? Doubt it.

          1) How do you know that he had even accepted the "offer," if a formal offer was even made, which MacMahon later clarified as BU's "pursuit was stopped?" If he had not accepted the offer, BU has all rights to pull it. 2) Larsson has been visiting multiple schools, which leads credence to the thought that he hadn't accepted an offer, never mind that it wasn't announced on twitter which seems typical these days. 3) How do you know that said offer wasn't made to him contingent on Tkachuk leaving? As you said, it wasn't ridiculous to believe he'd come back.

          For the record, I'm not 100% assured he is still coming back but feel a bit better about it. In his last NHL diary I believed he had mentioned that his goal was to get in the NHL next season.

              Farrance was selected in the 15th round of the USHL draft, apparently a chance he does not return.

                Didn’t Farrance play some F last year or am I thinking of someone else? If so, perhaps it’s a mutual agreement between Quinn & Farrance to go back to the U & play F?

                    He did indeed play F a few times last year.

                      But he sure seemed to find his game at D down the stretch. Of course, I didn't really focus too much on his play in the BU end of the ice.

                        If there was any legitimate chance Farrance would be playing in the USHL next season, he would've been selected a lot higher than the 15th round.

                          Tyler Boucher committed to BU today after a great showing at WSI. ‘03 F heading to Avon Old Farms. Plays heavy, goes to the net hard, goal scorer, plays with edge.
                          Father is ex-NHL goalie Brian Boucher. Right-shot forward played for Comcast in Philly areas the past two years. Had 8 points in 7 games at WSI.

                          Received an A+ rating at Total Pro Showcase of top ’03 prospects.

                          Tyler Boucher, #10 Canadiens, Right Shot, Team Virtua - He has a quick stick and was a good skater. His speed into the zone down the left wing started a scoring play. He also made a really nice pass to spring a teammate on a partial breakaway. He had a heavy shot as well.

                              2018 NHL Combine began in Buffalo today. Among the 104 attendees are Brady Tkachuk and 2018 recruits Joel Farabee and Jake Wise. So, too, is Tyler Weiss, who according to several accounts won’t be coming to BU and is looking at other options.
