Sit and Straight have looked as good as they ever have in the past two weeks. Straight especially even though he hasn't put one into the net.

like i said a few pages earlier, is that REALLY Straight in that uniform? :eek: cripes, all of last year's group of underperforming sophomores look better and faster than last year. Brown was absolutely flying around the ice
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

here's one for you guys...

would you rather have silk in at F and Linell on D or Linell in for Silk and Doherty on D? i know there are other combinations, thought i'd start with this basic one.

Straight started last year strong but was never the same after he wrecked his ankle. The kid has talent and would be putting up points if he was playing on one of the top lines.

Holy crap!
Well... the team is doing well and the lines are putting up some numbers, so, it's time to blow the lines up, wouldn't ya say? You know, spread the scoring around and all. Yea, yea... worked well last year.

Here's my go at it...
Straight-Brown-Gaudreau (yea, Johnny is a LW, but so is Straight, and he deserves better)
Linell-Spiro-Calnan
Richardson-Silk-Gilmour
Arnold-Sit-Hayes (C-C-C... a forward is a forward is a forward)

I would skate Straight over Gilmour or Calnan on the top 2 lines.

I saw Gilmour's value with Gaudreau-Arnold vs Wisconsin. Only a one game sample, but Gilmour certainly fit with them from what I saw. Why mess with that?
Straight has 1 assist, playing wing on a line with a center that has as many goals as anyone else on the team. What's he going to bring to the table on the top 2 lines that others aren't?
Right now, Straight-Sit-Silk are fairing pretty well playing where they are... against 4th liners. Leave it alone, IMO.

3 goals on 6 shots, may be time for Demko to be named the number one guy...
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

4-1 after 2. Prob would have been 8-1 last year
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

6-1 Minnesota half way through the third.
Shots are 29 to 28.

Chalk it up as a learning experience and by March, they will fix things up a bit. Very poor team defense today and very poor play by the whole team.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

Lost all the respect that I had for your team after today. First Paranteau gets injured on an unnecessary penalty on Friday and then a terrible late hit on Condon today. York may be a good coach, but I have to wonder where that kind of play is learned. No class. Learn to lose.

Shut it. No intentions to hurt players. Sometimes accidents happen. If this was a game against those that are nameless it would have been so much uglier.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

Hitting a player into the net after the whistle had blown was unintentional? The refs seemed to disagree and I do too. Not sure what you were watching. He knew what he was doing.

First off the whistle had not blown, I just went back and watched it. Condon shot the puck and as he moved towards the net was hit. No doubt it was a penalty but accusing BC of being anywhere near the nameless team like is idiotic.

BC is a skill team. Not a team that runs around playing cheap. This is somewhat of an overreaction.

You're making a fool of yourself.

What was the name of that ******azz Gopher player that mugged Billy Arnold in Tampa again? I forget. Maybe you have forgotten that too?
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2013-2014 season thread -Speed returns to The Heights

Time to move Linell back to forward. Or the bench. Foolish decision to keep trotting him out there on D.

I can't even take this team seriously until they make some reasonable personnel decisions. Did this same program cut Colin Sullivan? Really?
