Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

I didn't watch the game, so maybe you could fill me in on the officiating. The box score says the Bulldogs were called for six penalties and BC for four. Sounds pretty even to me with BU having the advantage. What wasn't even was the power play. The Bulldogs converted on two of three chances and BU only went one for five. Except for the embellishment call on Caitlin Walsh in the second period, I didn't see any calls for roughing or any of that. What was the "cheap stuff?" (And I'm not being a smarta**...I really didn't see the game, so I'm curious.)

The University of Minnesota brought out the usual garbage. Chippiness, roughing after the whistle, things like that. This is nothing new for The University of Minnesota. We expect it. The University of Minnesota needs to learn that there's no place for that in this game. The University of Minnesota is a team of cheap shot artists. I really hate playing The University of Minnesota, because some University of Minnesota players are one dirty play away from ending someone's career.

Oooo, careful there, Grant. The Eagles didn't even play the University of Minnesota this time.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

i did watch the game. if you consider being stronger on the puck, stronger in the corners and stronger in front/and in the net poor officiating, then i guess that's what you call it. from my perspective, and i'm sorry to say, bc was just outplayed after the first period. too many odd man breaks allowed by bc and very few bc quality shots. not the end of the world for bc, but today's game will have to be better to have a closer score. both wong and irwin seemed to be on every shift and consistently creating good chances for umd while bc tended to role alot of lines dump the puck in the corner and watch umd come back at them. shots on goal, although fairly close, do not properly indicate the balance of the game. most of bc's shots were from well outside the scoring zone while umd's were often up close. more to come today.

Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

unbelievable turnaround for bc in today's game with carpenter netting the game winner (shorthanded) with .4 seconds left in the game to give bc the 3-2 victory. huge game for bc who have already proven they belong in the top tier nationally as they played umd tight all game and also overcame some of the most one sided refereeing of all time. bc heads back with a terrific effort (as compared to yesterday) and now ready for hockey east play next week. congrats.

OH MAN. what a fantastic, epic win today. I know we are 'ranked higher' but realistically, a split is a FANTASTIC result in Duluth. and this could be huge for the PWR come March. wow!
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

TTT21 is a true hardcore fan. Gets married in the afternoon and still has the presence of mind to watch the game in the evening.

I didn't see either game, of course, but today's win is definitely encouraging.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

I actually didn't see yesterday's game. I saw the score and knowing how Duluth plays and how biased those WCHA refs are, assumed myself to be right.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

I did not expect a win against a team like Duluth this early in the team's development. This is going to be a great team-builder, to go on the road and win a game like this. I know UNH is down, but the Whitt has always been a tough place to play... A nice series next weekend and we are off and running.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2011-2012

it should not go unnoticed that all three of bc's goals today were by freshman. first weekend of their college careers, on the road, in hostile territory, against a top team and the freshman just fill the net. very impressive and should add significant balance to an already steady team.

first goal was an own goal by duluth freshman lacquette, and anyone that complains about the referees in this weekends series wasnt there or didnt see it, very fairly called both ways except for an abundance of offsides calls, correct me if im wrong but one foot on the blue line makes one onsides right

I didn't see anything from the referees in the women's series that could be complained about really from either side.. penalties were called that should have been as far as what I saw.

B.C.'s winning goal scorer Alex Carpenter.. would have had a 'gwg' picture but someone skated through the camera view, but I did get a shot of her earlier.
