Man, he is just pillaging and plundering right now. I am downright giddy thinking about what he might do in the second half. And I trust the Gaudreau vs. Grimaldi question has been settled at this point.

downside is that we may not have him back next year:( and that is a tough one to swallow........... selfishly, i just want to watch him another year here.

Pretty hilarious he Ferris State'd a Canadian Dman and almost sniped another backhander in almost exact fashion as he did in Tampa. He must have missed that shot today by 2.5 inches.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

need this game tonight and to stop the bleeding after a 2-2-1 stretch and just one more game without Johnny Hockey. cant wait. Go Eagles
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

According to the kid MacLeod is back tonight. Will be nice to play with 6 dmen.

Always like when different teams come to Conte.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Agreed with claver - looking forward to seeing a 'good' team visiting Conte. These points might be important for pairwise down the road.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Nice escape and great D by BC, serious PK. Outshot by double and still salvage a point.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

there haven't been many times i've been happy getting a point at conte but this was without a doubt one of them. If not for Milner its a sure loss yet all three goals were from way out and of the soft variety
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Thought Arnold might win it with that trailer play we've now seen so often...
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

BC should be getting summonsed to court because that point was stolen. Ugly, ugly, ugly. I know they'll have Gaudreau back next week, but if they play defensively like that against UNH, Milner will have a Minnesota-style sunburn on the back of his neck from the goal light.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Yale scares me more offensively than UNH does, but point taken. It was light years better than 8-1. Let's see how they look next game with Gaudreau in the lineup.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

In a nut shell... the Eagles played like crap tonight and stole a point. Was like we were skating in cement against Yale skating on ice.
First impression... Jeke is going to be OK on the blue line.

FWIW... that was absolutely the worst job by Hockey East refs I have seen in my 15 years of watching many, many HE games per season. Man, they were atrocious. If anyone has video... check it out.
Worst of the night... Linell beats the d-man and breaks in on goal in the third period. He's hooked the last ten feet of the play... can't get a clean shot off and runs over the goalie. Called for goaltender interference. No chit he hit the goalie... he couldn't get a shot off or change direction because he had a stick wrapped around his torso.
The 5:00 and game on Matheson is a close second. 5:00 for playing hockey and Game Misconduct for a perfectly executed embellishment by Agostino.

Don't get me wrong... the refs didn't cost BC anything. We sucked all on our own. Just pointing out the refs sucked more than we did.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

I agree with Cross Check - it was a point stolen just by the number of quality shots Yale had over BC. But the larger problem I have with this game was the tenacity with which Yale played not being matched by BC - it wasn't even close. Yale just played like they wanted it more, and were able to step up their effort and level of play when it was needed most. Didn't see any mental let-downs by Yale, either, of which we had a few. BC's talent and goaltender snagged this point tonight, nothing else really. I know I'm being hard on them, but after a 8-1 loss I expected a little more urgency - and what I'm criticizing them for is rather inexcusable. Looking forward to the UNH match-up.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

I had a HUGE problem with that Matheson call, myself, Five-Hole. No call when it happened, but oh-uh, now that we've got all intermission to think about it we'll call him for a bogus 5 min.major and game misconduct because that Yale kid looked kinda hurt from a kinda hard hit... Please, give me a g/d break! The Yale kid's upper body and head were lowered in what was sort of like a semi-crouch just before Matheson made contact with him. They're paths just crossed - he didn't line him up or anything or even lower his shoulder into him. Matheson couldn't have done anything more benign in that situation. These fools with the whistles just LOVE to call anyting that looks a little rough a penalty! Use a little reasonable judgement you idiots or you'll further wimpify college hockey.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

He actually did make the call when it happened... the trailing ref fully across the ice by the face off circle. It was the end of the period and he waited until the teams left the ice before he told the scorekeeper. It's not often Jerry questions a refs call, but he and Brown were standing in the doorway inquiring about the call before the refs left the ice. Looked like Brown had a few choice words as they skated away.
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

On replay, the call on linell was laughable...very little contact and certainly not "charging".

you had a better vantage point than i did but my point on EA was that it was totally unnecessary as the horn was about to go off . If it stopped a scoring chance ok but clearly where it was on the ice and at the time it happened i thought it was a dumb play by MM. Sorry i didnt get down there, see you Friday
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

oh, one other thing. Conte looked absolutely packed tonight and when i got home and looked at the box on HE web site the announced crowd was 7100 or thereabouts. who the heck is counting the gate? there have been many other sellouts that weren't packed like this but still an excellent crowd and good showing by the Elis
 
Re: Boston College '12-'13: Gaudreaubey Baker

Sounds like Gaudreau got banged up a bit today, hope it's nothing serious... Looks like Silk may develop into a decent scorer after all. When Gaudreau comes back it will be interesting to see what York does with the lines as it seems the Arnold/Hayes/Silk line is really clicking. Maybe try a 3rd line of Spiro/Linell/Straight?
