BU has only won 8 tournament titles, not nine. This is just another error among many that I have noticed in Hockey East press releases and media guide this season.

It's surprising they have only met twice in the NCAAs. That is just crazy to me.

Aside from the big three at NU, he's tied with Foley and Greenway at 1 PPG in conference play. Foley made first team and Greenway third team. Only juniors and seniors were picked at forward so I guess being a freshman hurt him in the voting. Who knows.

In fact he's not even listed as an honorable mention. Doesn't make any sense. Bowers was honorable mention but then when you look at the all rookie team, it says Hutsko was the lone unanimous selection yet not even an honorable mention for all star teams. Different voters?

Re: Boston College Eagles 2017-2108 Season Thread
Exactly my point. It just doesn't add up.
And by some of your posts, you seemed to have watched a lot of BC games this year. What did you think of Hutsko?

Became a different player as the season progressed and down the stretch. Tremendous confidence and skill level off the charts. I really wasn't expecting this from him coming off his previous injury last year etc. Kinda a forgotten recruit in that regard. Didn't know what they would get out of him and it's clear he has the goods. Can stick handle in a phone booth.

I've stopped worrying about these things a long time ago.

yeah, i knew that some were series and others were single games, i got that much but it didnt seem the math added up, thank God for Sean Pickett to straighten it out.
The semifinal and finals are single games... quarter final games could be 2 or 3 games. So, the 9-4 record is 13 games played over 10 series. I know one QF series went 3 games where BU upset us at Conte. But that's all the math I'm doing for ya. Have fun figuring it out.

and it was the year i graduated BC, wonderful, we lost the Natty to BU
No. That was the year when we lost in the semis to Providence, 5-1. But in those days (because there were only two leagues - the ECAC in the East and the WCHA in the West), two teams from each league went to the NCAAs (it was just the Final Four [not "Frozen Four" - that was a marketing thing that was started I think by ESPN] then - only a four team tournament). So the winner of the league tournament received the automatic bid and the committee selected the second representative. Usually it was the two teams that met in the finals, but because BU was so dominant and had such a great year (there was tremendous Western dominance at that time and the ECAC wanted the best possible representative to go to the Final Four), it was decided after we beat Brown in the Consolation Game, that there would be a special "NCAA Qualifier Game." BU would play Providence (who had lost to BC in the championship game) again, essentially giving the best team in the East a "second chance" to get to the Final Four. Although it was decided by the ECAC, it was considered an "NCAA" game (similar to the "play-in" games they have now in the NCAA basketball tournament).
I remember trekking down to Schneider Arena, where BU extracted revenge, beating Providence, thus qualifying for the Final Four, where they went on to beat a good Wisconsin team (with Mike Eaves) before toppling BC to win the championship. Ironically, the Final Four was played at the Providence Civic Center (to add insult to injury to the Providence fans, who were NOT happy that BU was given a "second" chance).
If you want a little nostalgia, here is a fantastic <a href="http://terrierhockey2.blogspot.com/2009/03/that-championship-season.html" target="_blank">recap</a> of that memorable season.

Is it only hockey east play that is taken into consideration for these awards? If so York would be a likely winner. if not, 0-7-3 OOC does not really scream coach of the year.....
