Beanpot LXXI: "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"

Split-N said:
The situation on Beanpot eve: BC and BU firmly in the national top ten; Northeastern clawing its way back from oblivion (with wins over BC and BU along the way); Harvard having an historically miserable season. So, the favorite is........?

Playing the percentages I would say BU just because BC beating them three times in a row in like 10 days is a tall task. NU was fortunate to beat BU the other night. I think NU beats Harvard and loses in the championship game.

Can't disagree with you on that. That is usually the case even if one team is not as good. But hoping three can done like UML.
 
It will come down to the goaltending of course. Will Fowler have as good a night as he had last weekend? BU didn’t play badly last weekend, especially the first 5 minutes of each game. Fowler shut them down while BC found its footing. We’ll see how it goes tomorrow night.
 
Which teams are the home and away teams tonight ? Anybody know ? Any info links so I can look it up ?
 
I had forgotten how inane these broadcasts were. Tell me about petting your dogs.

Harvard sucks. Go Harvard.
 
Feels like Northeastern’s game to lose. As long as they can stay out of the box, they should win this game. I know BC is super young but they have enough skill to make up for it, Harvard’s youth just don’t have enough skill to make up for it
 
What an incredible atmosphere and game to watch. Amazing talent on both sides and teams flying up and down the ice!

Ah the preenial Beanpot discussion topics:

1. BU or BC? Or will someone else get lucky.

2. Whinging about getting the early game because getting there in time is blah.

3. Whinging about getting the late game cause the early game went over time. (although this year...ugh)

4. WILL IT SNOW? [add all the horror stories of past Beanpot blizzard traffic]

5. Harvard fanbase size jokes.

Ok so yeah, not bad.
 
Well it was a fun first period. BC smells blood, BU is taking stupid penalties. This could turn ugly very quickly.

surprised they didn’t look at offside on BC coming into the zone prior to the goal. Couldn’t get a good look at it on the replays.

Very close. Not sure what the college rule is. Looked like his skate was in the air but still over the plane of the line. If it has to be ON the ice then it looked offside.

Was surprised the officials didn’t review it. Or at least if Pandolfo could use his challenge. I still haven’t seen a good replay. I’m watching on NESN on cable. I will have to try espn+ later.
