        Tipsy did you get another banner to raise while in Detroit? Inquiring minds want to know.

          You guys know if anybody on BC going pro early? Please say Kreider and Atkinson .

          Not that it matters since Jerry seems to reload rather than rebuild.

          BU's roster is looking pretty thin with C Cohen, Bonino, and Shattenkirk all jumping ship. Some good recruits coming in though.

          You know...I root against BC b/c I'm a BU guy and make no apologies for that. BUT...as a huge fan of college hockey I'd be lying if I said that your program doesn't impress the hell out of me right now.

          Last year when I bought my FF tickets off Craigslist, I've come to realize that I have more in common with hard core college hockey fans of any team than with most people, even some casual BU fans.

          Last year I met a nice gentleman at a coffee shop who was selling the FF seats. At first he looked a tad tentative when he noticed I was wearing BU sweatshirt. I mentioned that I was a season ticket holder at Agganis and as it turned out he's a season ticket holder as well, only at Kelley Rink.

          I ended up sitting a chatting with him for 1/2 hour over coffee and enjoyed the hockey conversation tremendously.

          Not once did I yell "BC sucks" at him or did he chant "Safety School" at me. He even emailed me congratulations once the title had been won. Classy.

          Since that day I remain a fiercely loyal and loud BU fan, and I try to keep it positive.

          Sometimes I even try chatting up Maine, NU, UNH, and BC fans at Agganis. This often has mixed results.

          I guess many of us are in the "silent majority" after all.

            No, but if he's there, why not? He certainly had a lot to do with the one two years ago.

                I didn't say be the guy who is part of the face off, but a guy who is introduced and maybe drops the puck. Maybe Corey Latulippe can be ringmaster at the circus the next time the Elephants come back to Burlington.

                  Funny thing actually but elephants are banned from the State of Vermont. The esteemed Legislature actually introduced a law taking up that ban.....

                  And it still doesn't matter, why would they acknowledge Gerbe in anyway? That's just ********...


                  I wonder if the sponsor graduated from BC

                      jcarter, do you have a favorite NHL team that we can make a "stay away" bet about? How about UVM women's lacrosse? Anything?

                        Great post. There are few better experiences than meeting true college hockey fans on the road. Doesn't matter what colors they're wearing - people who are truly passionate about the sport, not just one team, tend to be great people. It's what makes the Frozen Four a special event. I think I got pictures with fans of maybe eight or nine different teams.

                          I do have a favorite NHL team, but alas there are no bets possible. And nope, no bets for a while. BC and UVM will be one of the first games played, so we can put down a bet then. But, you are stuck with me for the off season. Which I know some of you are happy about since a fair share during a BC NC run spent more time on the UVM thread then they did their own.
