Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Ok, I was obviously wrong. I wonder if this could be why Henrik still hadn't committed. I always figured he would have gone to BC to play with his brother but I guess he knew there was a chance his brother would be gone.

Thought this was interesting...

Henrik has played in 27 games for the USNDT and leads the team in PIMs by a wide margin with 78

Anyway, with Samuelsson leaving, my sources are telling me Malcolm Lyles will return to BC where York will force Cross to give up #4...

:D

Your sources must be wrong, I heard he was going to take Venti's 30 for the number of NHL clubs that are fighting over him :)

he only had 25 nhl development camp offers....

Watch this video from last week when he again was the first star. watch his goal, assist etc and tell me if he hasnt improved big time. watch the 105 mark and the rush up ice

Playing for a national championship starting this Friday All busting chops aside, it is nice to see a kid take a chance and come out on top.

Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Wonder who BC will either bring in early or recruit to replace Samuelsson, can't imagine it being a very smart move to go into the season with only 6 D.

IIRC,we were the ones telling you he must have improved big time from what we saw, you were the one who said he was always this good
 
Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Any word on whether Samuelsson will be returning to BC in the fall?
 
Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

This may belong in the alum thread, but thought it was worth mentioning here. BC has a former player playing in every NHL playoff series except Nashville/Anaheim. Very impressive. Kudos to Jerry and staff for proving their ability in developing top caliber players both at the college level and the professional level. To establish BC Hockey as a place where you can not only compete for NCAA titles every year, but also personally develop your game to become a NHL contributor on the league's top teams is remarkable. Everyone involved in the program should be commended. From the head coach to the strength coach to the equipment manager and of course the assistant's out there flipping rocks to find these guys. On top of all that, they do it preaching hard work and strong character.

Proud to be a fan.
 
Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Since we're on a similar subject, I see that 1 former and 1 current player are part of the USA team for the World Championships. Congrats to Chris Kreider for joining the squad for the 2nd year in a row and to Ryan Shannon as well for becoming part of Team USA.

Additionally, the team will be coached by Scott Gordon, another former BC player.

This is just a preliminary roster for now as they only have 2 G, 10 F, and 4 D.

Well, if Maine can manage to finish 8th BC could probably get to 5 just from games vs. Maine. :D

Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

From the awards dinner last night:

MVPs: Muse & Cam (2nd yr in a row)
Most Improved: Patch (interesting)
Best Typifies BC Hockey: Gibbons
Freshman: Arnold

It was well done, a little long but a nice send off for the most accomplished class in BC history.
 
Re: Boston College 2011-2012 season outlook

Question for BC students....or any other BC fan that might know. I was on campus yesterday - my godson was accepted and flew up for Accepted Eagle Day - and I went to the bookstore in McElroy Commons as I wanted to get him a SuperFan tshirt (that I've instructed him never to wear in my presence ;) ) and the ones they've had there have the bookstore logo on the back. Do incoming students get one during orientation or something? I thought they said Ever to Excel on the back. I want to get him a real one and I wasn't sure if that actually was one. The color also seemed a bit off. Thoughts?
