My question looking ahead to Miami next weekend what about Frey? The play by play guys said he didn't return due to injury but gave no details. From what little I could tell from the audio it may not have happened in the AF game.
I saw him Friday get pushed back awkwardly in the Denver game. I'm thinking he may have got a tweak and it started to worsen in the Saturday game.

It happened on the 2nd Air Force goal saturday night.

Well we broke into the USCHO poll at #19. I thought we deserved better. Coach's poll not out yet.
Guess a solid thrashing of Miami next weekend will help!

It would have helped if Denver had beaten BC. I'm ok with #19. After one weekend I can't really justify putting us higher than any of the teams ranked above us.

I'd definitely prefer the win, but this year I'm trying to keep everything in perspective in terms of how we started the last few years. With that in mind, on the road against a team that has had our number for years and beat a top-ten team last week, I'll take the tie. Tomkins played really really well. He really kept us in this one. We got plenty of good chances ourselves, we were just unable to capitalize. I thought we had the game winner three or four times in that first OT. With the start they've had, I don't think there's any reason we couldn't sweep BG next week.

Its not a win but not a loss either. Ill take the tie and move on to BG next weekend. They got destroyed at Western last night and will be hungry come Friday night in there barn. I expect them to be flying out of the gate lets hope our guys can match it.

Well we still need to keep out of the penalty box. If not for that 5 on 3 we may have taken a real win home with us last night.
Penalties are game killers and I think that will be the main factor at BG next weekend.
Any word on Frey's injury or when he'll be back?

Frey has a groin injury. Tomkins was playing so well last night I didn't even think to ask how long he'll be out haha. As for the penalties, apparently all the teams were told at the beginning of the season that they would be calling things much tighter this year. I guess we just have to get used to it.

As long as Tompkins is strong in the net I agree they won't rush his return.

He was there with the team, he just didn't dress. He was in the stands with the other scratches.

That seems right. You are a team and travel as a team with the exception of your injury preventing you from traveling.
