Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

But college hockey is the future of television. That's why we added Notre Dame!!!!

Given that I think Bertagna was just extended for a few more years we're never going to get him out of there. I think there really needs to be a change at the top of the league. The scheduling and TV situation is atrocious. We are ruining the experience for the few people that attend so no one can watch it on tv.

My family has 6 season tickets and I don't see us renewing next year. With kids now, the terrible schedule makes it almost impossible to attend more than a few games a year. They ask for renewals long before we see the schedule. LONG before. So.... someone at BC or Hockey East better fix this or we're done wasting hundreds on unused tickets.

No games should be on Mondays to Wednesdays, and the Fenway experience has lost its novelty. No one likes bad sight lines and sitting in the cold. The 2nd game looked so bare in the stands and unless you sat in an enclosed area where there is heat. Might as well stay home and watch it free in comfort.

Joe Woll is having a better freshman year than Demko. A little older than Demko was but still. He gives this team a chance to win every night. Add in you still have players like White, Fitzgerald and Cangelosi etc...they can still get back into this thing. No shame in losing to that BU team, not like they were run out of the building either night. But now it's time to win games. Next two are absolute must wins and then you get Notre Dame at home. That's a big one. Series to come against UVM and UML which very well could determine their NCAA fate. But if they can get in, having the players I mentioned gives them a chance in a one and done scenario.

FYI - New recruits, defenseman Ryan Siedem and forward Jason Siedem.

Joe Woll is pretty good. Gonna need white and fitzgerald to elevate their game.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

asked on EA if they were outplayed as much as 43-26 suggests, a response was "yes" :eek: 0-4 on PP, Jesus. 16% for the year, which ranks #40 nationally
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

And when you have some guys that they have, it should be better

right? .........so i looked at PK and we are 41st nationally at that. BC is usually top 10 in both of these categories
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

Without a doubt one of the least satisfying wins I can remember. Woll stole that game. Blatant thievery. In no way did they deserve to win. If they play anything like that on Saturday night against Notre Dame, they are going to get frogstomped.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

Woll is outstanding. BC has had a lot of fine goalies over the years. You can have a lot of fun trying to rank the best of them. I believe that BC is asking more of a Freshman goalie this season than they have since Paul Skidmore was a Freshman.

Guess they were due for one of these games. Typically they outwork most teams on a nightly basis. Hopefully a wake up call.

Skidmore was there when i was! Actually won a 'pot in my 4 years which was saying something those days. Not that we scuked, we just couldnt win a Beanpot. 2 in 29 years over a span
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

Winning a 'Pot vs those great bu teams wasn't easy. BC wasn't a weak team, just not as loaded as bu. Watching the College Hockey in the mid 70's hooked me for life.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread

I see the ND game is sold out. It'd be nice to send them home with tail between legs and ears ringing.
