Bentley Falcons 2013-2014: No offseason. No excuses.

Re: Bentley Falcons 2013-2014: No offseason. No excuses.

Mid-season Bentley stats report:

It is all about special teams during the first half for Bentley, as they stand in Div 1 overall 5th place in PPG, 17 of 67 for 25.37%, and tied for 13th with Maine in PK, 74 of 87 for 85.1%. Also, being tied for 38th in Pen Min, at 91 for 193, or 11.35 PM/Game helps (UConn lowest overall, 59th, at 52 for 115, or 7.67 PM/Game for this one). So, that translates to 89 2-min minors, one 5-min major, and one 10-min misconduct; good discipline so far for the Falcons. My alma mater UNH Wildcats, also known as the Skating Mother Teresa's, are 57th in Pen Min, at 77 for 165, or 7.86 PM/Game.

For individual stats, Weinstein is highest scoring D-man in Div 1, tied at 13th overall in points; 17 games, 1 goal, 23 assists, for 24 points. Next closest D-men are Mat Bodie at Union (18, 2-17-19) and Trevor van Riemsdyk at UNH (21, 4-15-19), who have 1 and 4 extra games, respectively. Next closest AHA point scorers are Ryan Misiak, Mercyhurst (20, 7-15-22), teammate Alex Grieve (17, 12-9-21), Chad Demers, Air Force (18, 8-12-20), and teammate Brett Gensler (17, 9-10-19). The AHA has had one Top 10 Hobey candidate announced in early March each of the past three years: Carsen Chubiak, G, Niagara, last year; Tim Kirby, D, Air Force, in 2012; and Paul Zanette, F, Niagara, in 2011.

Bentley's campus will be closed on Friday because of snowstorm. But, as far as we know at this time, the Niagara game at the JAR on Friday night is still on, as is the women's basketball game at the Dana Center. I will be at the JAR, of course. If anyone is interested, perhaps we should organize a recap at John Brewers Pub after the game?

That sounds like it has some potential. I would be a questionable or doubtful because of postgame shenanigans (interviews, game stories, and general clean up work), but I think this is a great idea. It would also do wonders to bolster the community feeling that we have. I encourage everyone join in!

As for the game itself, the game is on. I've been in contact with the bentley athletics department. I'll have a report later.

Coming down next weekend for the RIT games via a stop in Cambridge, how are the burgers at John Brewer's? I've got other options including Tasty Burger and Flat Patties in Harvard Square.

I'm veggie, but I am told by my carnivore friends that the burgers at JBs are excellent. I would suggest a pre-game gathering at JBs tomorrow, but I am arriving at the game directly from soup kitchen duties on Moody Street. Will be following the next two weekends online from New Zealand. Go Falcons!

Lots can happen in the next seven games before we visit Mercyhurst for two games at the end of the month. But, I think that Air Force is now the team to beat in the AHA; we did our job in the Springs, but hope that other teams are up to the task.

Only exception to this - Ben Carey (top six forward) separated his shoulder and Jason Torf (their goalie) might be done for the year with a groin injury.

Yikes! Maybe I should change my picks in the AHA Pick 'Em thread for this weekend.

Will be interesting to see how well the 'new' heating system is working in the JAR tonight. Will wear my warm hat and mittens!

This team is getting people to sit up and take notice. I plan to come down from NH for tonight's game. I hope they find enough places to push the snow without taking up parking spots to do it.

Great game tonight, all the way around. These teams deserved more than the 50 or so in attendance.
