BC Women's Hockey Offseason 2010: Stack Strikes Back

Re: BC Women's Hockey Offseason 2010: Stack Strikes Back


WHOA.

I think it's safe to call BU the favorites to win the league next year.

Will probably be a liberating feeling for UNH not being the pre-season favorites for once. :eek:

I think BC will slot in nicely in the 3/4 spot and could challenge BU and UNH if it all comes together.

Yup. And if perchance a certain other Gold Medalist should decide to join the Terriers, way yup

Debatable. Underdog is not a role a 'Cat aspires to, but hey - it wouild be nice to be taken lightly now and again;)

Stack back and Shaus in the House and your aspirations fall to mediocrity:confused: :confused: :confused:

I think Hockey East has progressed to the point where finishing 3rd or 4th in the league is not at all mediocre.

Very true. I think it is very possible UNH may actually have to be happy with achieving that kind of placement. I don't see them being anywhere near as strong next year, given their graduation losses....while other teams including BU and BC are adding some big guns to the mix, and UConn, Northeaster and PC will continue to be solid.

Given the powers that be at UNH weren't happy with finishing out of the Frozen Four for the third straight year, I don't think they will be satisfied with fourth in Hockey East.

I don't doubt that either...but while the incoming players aren't exactly chopped liver, I don't think UNH is bringing in the kind of dazzling and deep recruiting classes that some of the other top ranked programs are, they don't benefit from returning Olympians, and the others aren't losing a Kaz finalist either.

A red fish or a blue fish would REALLY come in handy. ;)

Well, I've heard this said a number of times, and yet out of the blue (no pun intended) the players on the ice dazzle. To quote the good Mr. Brooks, "it's about the name on the front of the sweater..." ;)

The real question is whether or not BC will be able to overcome the loss of the Trumpet, which is known to be the 3rd most valuable component to success after Schaus and Stack.

Any truth to the rumor that BC is gonna record Grant playing the trumpet and put the recording on over the PA whenever the Eagles score? :p

I've heard the athletic department has commissioned Henson Studios to create a Grant muppet that will mimic trumpeting, oooing, ahhing, and ohhhing, as well as that insidious penalty kill chant. (it will not stalk players though):p
 
Re: BC Women's Hockey Offseason 2010: Stack Strikes Back

Kind of like me, right? :mad:

Sorry, I have a big, big problem when people say that. If I were a girl, you wouldn't have said that.

Well, how many lesbian stalkers do you ever hear about? :p

Grant, we have all come to respect...and, ah, even admire your exploits in support of the Eagles. The joke we all shared in your early days was that since you knew so very, very little about the sport, you had to be stalking. ;)

There is something to be said for finishing 3rd or 4th and then winning the playoff title for a division crown. :) :)

I know you were joking, but it's always bugged me.
The best way to avoid repeated abuse is never let them see that something bugs you.;) Needlers are looking for a reaction.

Could be worse. Better to have a reputation associated with obsessing about girls, than for obsessing over the snack bar, isn't it? ;)

It's really all in how you choose to look at things.
