Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Well, that was a spectacular hockey game tonight, played like playoff hockey on both sides. Both teams wanted this game bad and both left it all out on the ice IMO. Bravo.

My three stars:
Johnny Gaudreau... how many d-men did he undress out there tonight? The two in the first period were special. My goodness he is fun to watch.

Parker Milner... I've seen some Eagle goalies make great circus saves over the years, but this kid does it on a nightly basis. I am no longer surprised when he stones the guy sitting all alone on the back door with an empty net to shoot at. He made more circus saves tonight than Johhny undressed d-men.

Pat Mullane... this team seems to have taken on his personality. It's balls to the wall hustle throughout the entire lineup.

I refuse to believe this team can't continue to win with two scoring lines. As long as they remain healthy, they'll be fine. Running 4 lines with the intensity these guys bring each shift just wears teams down. It's a darn pleasure to watch the work ethic of this team.
Go Eagles!

JG is arguably the most dynamic BC player of all time. There are very few that come to mind, other than Craig Janney, where the game just slows down when the puck is on his stick. It's getting to the point where every time he touches the puck you expect something spectacular to happen. The first line was clearly dominant, but the third and fourth lines played well. You make a great point about rolling four lines, they have been doing it all year.

Complete team effort tonight. Milner was outstanding, that glove save in the third was insane.

We are spoiled. And I'm not going to address next years class. Unreal.

Just a great all around effort. Totally satisfying as a BC fan. And Gaudreau is just something else. It's hard to imagine how much I would not want to be a defenseman in a 1 on 1 with him. Great opportunity to look silly.

anyone know who the Cadet looking group was in the bottom left corner, upper lever, opposite the BC bench, section VV?
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Idle thoughts of the Dan Shaughnessy kind: The Wisconsin hockey team hasn't been the same ever since BC obliterated them in the 2010 NCAA final in Detroit. Ever since.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Any idea why so many dmen are coming in with only two seniors graduating?

I guess it's possible that Matheson could be leaving and Jeke seems to be more of a walk-on depth guy, so they could only be bringing back 3 regulars in Macleod, Doherty and Sullivan and Sullivan doesn't seem to be a top end guy, so maybe they are trying to get some competition amongst the group. Either way, looks like at least a couple guys will be sitting every night. It's possible they could also try to push someone back a year, perhaps Savage or Piazza?

I'm expecting a low scoring game today, like Friday night. The 5 PM Sunday start takes some juice out of this one, favoring the road team IMO. Very interesting to see how these two teams stack up against each other.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

shaughnessy! get a life!:eek::p

Happily, his columns are locked behind the Boston Globe paywall, meaning you aren't exposed to his insufferable drivel unless you pay the equivalent of a small order of fries per month for the 'privilege.' The rage boiling inside Shaughnessy must be palpable, to write a column that only a small handful of people will read.

Addition by subtraction.

The 5pm Sunday start is a bad idea all around. I mean they really could not have come up with a better time for one of the better games of the year?

Looking like some (plenty of) empty seats at Agganis... "?"!
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

The upside of no NHL is that there's no Jack Edwards. The insufferable Bruins play-by-play hack is Boston's own Bob Costas...he of the 'clever' and 'witty' utterances. During his call of tonight's game, Jackie has spared no opportunity to tell viewers that 'He's still got it.'

Thank GOD for the Mute button.

1. When did Brickley become a BU homer?
2. BU dives, they are making their coach look like a clown.
3. BC needs to stop going five hole.
4. BU has the energy in the third.
