For those who were there, good call on the overturned goal or no? I've see both opinions on Twitter (shocking I know).

Re: Northeastern Huskies 2016-17 -- Great Expectations

In a nut shell, I had way better seats last week when I was watching the 2nd game at home, so I stopped in for 2 periods of 4:30 pm start. My thoughts are that BC has not been looking good these past few weeks and tonight we kept to the game plan and it was a breakout night for RF and that allowed us to pretty much keep it close that said, if not for a late Interferance Call we still might have lost. That said I think we were better on D, didn't make to too many bonehead penalties, and RR was fairly solid between the posts. If we win out I think we can do some damage in the HE tournament. My thoughts are that PC is really the team to beat. However I will raise a beer to you all at the Cherry Tree for the Final game as anytime we beat BC I am happy. Cheers !

JStevens is out. Ruck in net.

21-12-7
8-9-10
17-16-19
24-22-25

Bolded the two because those are interesting choices to say the least.

May still be hurting a little, why risk it in this game. NCAA only happens with a very deep run in HE, probably same as last year.

Notes from TD Center: The Picking experiment on that line should end now.

Re: Northeastern Huskies 2016-17 -- Great Expectations

Major PWR implications for BC, not so much for NU. NU basically has to win out to have a shot- we've seen this before.

NU is playing for varying degrees of history though:
1) John Stevens needs 1 more point to get 100 for his career
2) Adam Gaudette is 2 PPG away from the single season NU record.
3) ZAR is 3 PPG away from that record, and 1 SHG away from the single season record.
4) SIkura is 4 assists away from a top 10 assists season all time
5) ZAR and Sikura's current paces would have them end their seasons with both having top 10 seasons in history in terms of scoring.

Re: Northeastern Huskies 2016-17 -- Great Expectations

What happened in that room is none of my business. But if it had anything to do with the fact that they were back to playing like their hair was on fire vs UMass, it must have served its purpose.

I feel like this is something that even if anyone did have information (and I obviously do not), it should be kept private and not shared publicly. It's a players only meeting for a reason.

I agree that the subject of it may be but the fact of it is another thing...frankly, if it happened I'm just disappointed that it didn't happen after the first loss to BC..

Anyone hear anything about the Captains and a players only meeting immediately after the Beanpot loss?

Re: Northeastern Huskies 2016-17 -- Great Expectations

I know it was UMass but this offense is scary good with the big 5 forwards healthy. The 21-18-12 line combined for 4 goals, 5 assists, 16 SOG and were just a pleasure to watch every time they were on the ice.

The team speed was the best it's been all year...they need two fixes tho...D needs to move pucks quicker...the forwards on the 18 and 8 line are where they should be the D should trust that and just move the puck and the D needs to support their local goaltender better...

Recap and thoughts. http://northeasternhockeyblog.com/20...adam-gaudette/

Good write-up put I disagree about Picking...he's a fish out of water so far...but very happy that in a game such as this one they kept their mistakes to a minimum...Ruck was sharp 90% of the time...he still needs to get more sticky...someone on NU bench needs to wake up to the fact that the opposing team is going to have two players in front of the net at all times...John Stevens did a good job giving down low support as did ZAR when circumstances called for it but, by and large, any rebounds were again fair game for opposing forwards because the other centers and the D just cannot stay home or give support.

Don't know why I got suckered on the Pecararo pic...he is out...he flunked a class appealed the grade and lost and there is just no fixing that...shame too...sounds like it was his own fault...
