  • Re: Boston College Season Thread: PART II

    They released some tickets in CC that Merrimack returned... There were a lot of empty seats in the lower bowl in the blue lines, which are probably corporate seats or season ticket holders that did not show up. Still a great crowd and fun to be there even as a Merrimack fan. A lot better than the old BC days where the crowds were smaller and could not compare to the other big boys of HE.

    Couple points:

    - BC uses the trailer better than any other team I've seen in HE. They just have a lot of class with the puck overall.

    - Parker Milner is very shaky, misplayed pucks off the boards, allowed a soft goal, etc.

    - Congrats to Jerry York. I stayed around to see the post game because he is a special coach, class act all the way.

      He was shaky last night, but was pretty good against BU. Overall, hard to argue with his W/L record and SP is decent. You're right though, he can be an adventure out there. All we can ask for is he keeps as many pucks out of the net as possible...by any means necessary. Lately, he's been doing that and the team has been scoring more goals. He's been giving them a chance...

          Will have to get there early to get a ticket and hope BC keeps rolling. Get the first goal and add on a few more to pin their backs to the wall early. Not a whole lot of offense, not even a 10-goal scorer yet but get the early lead and you have an advantage over MC. Milner has to make that save like the 2nd MC goal from the right wing.

              Agreed, 500 would seem like a lot to hold. Not sure if Conte does it at all just trying to think how a person could be denied with the game not sold out. Could be leftover away tix not sold by MC, but 500 would be a lot there also.

                Thanks for reading into my post a slam that didn't exist.

                  Out of curiosity, how have we all come to this conclusion.

Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

                    yeah, tix not sold by MC wouldnt be that much.............it was posted and published on sites earlier in the week that the game was sold out, it was pretty common knowledge so the question lingers.......i think i'll call the athletic dept Tuesday and ask

                      So what do people think about the Freshmen class? With Almieda, Carey and likely Kreider all gone, we are going to need those guys to step up next year. I realize that Straight was brought in a year early, but considering that at one time he was considered an "A" prospect by CSB, am a bit surprised that he's only put up a 1-3-4 scoring line. The way York jumped all over Linell after he ended up not getting into Harvard, I figured he would be a more productive player as well. I realize they are both young freshmen, but was still hoping for more like at least 10-15 points, especially for Straight. Hopefully they will both blossom next year.

                        Straight was pretty good last night. Setup Linell on an easy goal, which didn't go in but sat in the crease for the Gaudreau tap-in goal.

                        He's getting better.

                        Not a fan of his skating style, though - stride needs a lot of work, too upright, and skates with his stick flailing around 4 feet in the air.

                          Any idea why that one MC goal was initially ruled a no-goal and then credited once video was reviewed?

                                Exactly. Gentry, I wasn't the only one. Sure seemed like a "slam".
