Feels like we took the time machine back a year. Painful watching this game. It's only 3-1 after two, but NU is kicking our arse! :mad:
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Wasn't gonna be smooth sailing from start to finish. Watching NU last night i'm not sure how their record is so bad.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Eagles wake up in the third, score three and win it 4-3.
Those first 2 periods were brutally bad.
Way to battle and come out of there with a W.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

It's a tough league. Just look at UML getting no points against scuffling uconn
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Heh now that's very interesting. Politics or commitment issue? ;)

Yeah they got more pucks on net in the 3rd and eeked it out. Placed would have been rocking if it was more full.

Last year a 2-goal lead would have been too much to overcome for this team. 3 hard earned points this weekend and onto Thursday vs Notre Dame.

Some BC peeps getting into it with jonathan bracco on twitter. He thinks york is the reason bracco wasn't invited. Even though, you know, york isn't the coach, gm, or officially part of usa hockey.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

I don't think York had anything to do with it but fair is fair.

He walked out on the team after only 5 games and didn't even tell the coach face to face his sudden departure. If you make a commitment then keep your word at least for a year. You walk out on your team mates and burn a scholarship. I think some of his team mates said it best, if he didn't want to be here, good riddance.

Thinking about it, maybe USA Hockey looked at it and said, if he walked out on York, maybe he will do the same on our team when it doesn't suit him anymore. "We only want guys who want to be here."

I have no idea if York was responsible or not, but I'd bet he has some influence with the guys at USA hockey. It's a relatively small community and Bracco burnt a bridge related to someone who has been in that community a long time.

They may have asked for his opinion but i would think they already know bracco well enough via other tournaments and camps etc. I certainly don't think york would go out of his way to campaign against bracco. I just find it very hard to believe.
 
Re: Boston College 2015-2016 Season

Maybe USA hockey wasn't looking for someone who would take his ball and go home a couple games into the tournament if he wasn't placed on the first line?
