He had a previous injury, and if was a hit in the upper body, guessing he had some requirement to be looked at by the doc before continuing to play. Probably was worried he was going to be put on the shelf again.

BU Hockey '25-'26: Can we keep up the run to Vegas?

The have so much talent, it is likely they will start putting something together in the New Year. The problem is that they have given up so much mathematically, its going to be hard to recover. (I'm an NU guy, but have always appreciated watching BU play). The weekend series was basically a loss for BU, since they only get 52 of a possible 200 of the mathematical points on the weekend toward the NPI, whereas NU got 148.I’m showing my age with this comment: Love the goal, love the player, but ya at least gotta be above 500 to blow a lead, get 60% of a win, and then skate to the bench to rub your 6-7-1 season in the other team’s face, right? Just too young and competitively immature as a team with no leadership at the moment.
At the same time the whole reason these kids come here is to get better. Each of Jay’s teams have done exactly that. I’ll be (probably naively) holding out hope that they can turn the corner.
And i agree with you about the kid being a great player, but it was kind of a punk move to literally blow a game, and then skate over the other bench to make trouble after forfeiting a HE point. It is the one thing that is noteworthy about BU teams the last few years. Way more NHL caliber talent on their bench than at least 9 other HE teams, but they seem to have too many "one man shows" in the 3rd period. Its happened a lot in the NU games, where BU dominates early, they get up by 2, 3 goals, then get too cute, and NU finds a way to be back in the game with time left on the clock. BU does not have the goaltending right now to get away with that. Dec 13th will be fun with both teams having full benches, and NU having LZ back between the pipes.
Good to know, thanks for the clarification. Did he make it back to ice?He had a previous injury, and if was a hit in the upper body, guessing he had some requirement to be looked at by the doc before continuing to play. Probably was worried he was going to be put on the shelf again.
Yes, i heard the NU radio announcers say he (Maltais) was back out there a couple shifts later.Good to know, thanks for the clarification. Did he make it back to ice?
They had a moment of silence for Tom at Matthews on Friday. I'm sure Bernie mentioned it on-air.Does anyone know if Bernie paid tribute to his old co-worker, the late Tom Ryan?

I recall it as during a break in action during the first period. They put a headshot of Tom in uniform on screen, mentioned his time as color man on the broadcast, and then lauded his qualities as a human being. It was nice but brief. Not a tribute video, but an appropriate pause.

there's a good buck in that racket.
The nu crew did the friday espn+ broadcast and shared some kind words as well.
Thank you. I watched the replay last night. The sideline reporter made the announcement, and Bernie provided a few words after that.I recall it as during a break in action during the first period.

As happy as Bernie and Mark were, they were critical of Cole Hutson's actions (even in the midst of their excitement).
