UMass gags the game away in tremendous fashion and BC gets a trophy
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Ha yep. Gotta give UConn credit. They are entering "should be at the Garden" territory.

It's a zero sum game when those two fanbases meet but the best Umass fans are the ones going home after a loss.

2019-2020 Hockey East Regular Season Champs.
Hope they can take the Umile Cup for a spin around Agganis tomorrow.

Back in the day this trophy didn't mean a thing unless you put it to use and did some damage in the postseason. Not even going to enjoy this... want postseason hardware.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Would have enjoyed it more if they won it on their own tomorrow night but now the focus is just BU and then the PWR factor next weekend.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

What a joy it’s been to watch this team develop this season. Steve Gerrish would be on cloud 9 raving about them. Actually, maybe he is! 😀
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Apparently BU is still not even locked into the tournament as 9th place is still possible. Even with them playing again next weekend, these Eagles would be great to show some killer instinct, bury these guys tonight, and enjoy the trophy in Agganis. What an opportunity.

Yea SteveG would be raving about this team.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

For the first few months of the season, I thought the Hockey East Rookie of the Year would be either Trevor Zegras or Spencer Knight. Now, I have to figure it will be Alex Newhook (with the other two being unanimous members of the All-Rookie team).

A few weeks ago, I thought Jack Dugan was a shoo-in for Hockey East Player of the Year. Now, Providence might finish 8th (or worse). Has Newhook actually turned into a legitimate candidate for Player of the Year? He has been leading the way for the league's best team playing their best hockey of the year. Who else could it be? John Leonard from UMass? He's a forward who has five assists in league play all season (and seven assists overall). David Farrance from BU? But the Terriers could finish 6th or lower in the standings, and could finish with an overall record of below .500. I don't think a goalie is a real threat to win it.

You conveniently omitted that Leonard leads the COUNTRY in goals (26) and leads HE in goals (20). That might help his cause.
No question that Newhook is ROY. Newhook and Spencer will be on the All Rookie Team, and Boldy should be as well. That's an impressive recruiting class.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

I don’t see how Leonard doesn’t win POTY. He’s filthy.
He’s a solid Hobey candidate too but highly doubt they give it to a Umadd-Amherst player again this year.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

I found it interesting there was nothing on BC hockey Twitter about clinching first. Hope they go out and win it outright tonight especially after what happened in the Pot. Then some time for them to celebrate. Looking like a different team since the Pot though.

Win out and put the foot on the gas into post season

You want momentum into the playoffs and a trip to Northeast Regionals and Detroit at full speed

Pedal to the metal

Leonard is having a great year, isn’t surrounded by some of the same talent as others in the conversation in Hockey East. I think he’ll probably be player of the year in HE but I’d also put Swayman right up there with what he’s done. I think he’s behind Kawaguchi, McKay, and Swayman for Hobey though.

Newhook should win HE ROTY in a runaway in my mind now.

One last thing that came to mind. Did anyone from USA hockey actually put in the time to scout Boldy this year or did they just look at his stat line and determine ok we'll leave him off the world junior team...

Total buffoonery in that decision.

You've watched a LOT more BC hockey than me, but my vague recollection is that around the December time frame, Boldy looked decent but nothing like he has looked in the second half. Like the skill was there but he needed to adjust to the speed a little better. Do you think his play to the point at which the WJC team decisions to be made was good enough?
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Honestly I think he was playing really well. So for someone with his pedigree, I thought he'd get the benefit of the doubt. BC had him playing center and on a line with inferior linemates which I think hurt his stat line. When Rasanen played with Hardman and Newhook he put up numbers too but even when Boldy wasn't getting points he was doing a lot of things well.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

I believe he played LW last year and currently playing RW. So I really think playing center was a big adjustment as well as not playing with the other top forwards on the team.
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Did they give em the trophy out on the ice? 15-10 shot advantage in the 3rd. Nice job closing that one out.

Someone who was there will have to answer that. Since all of these "telecasts" are webcasts now, they cut the broadcast off about .1 second after the game ends. :)
 
Re: Boston College Eagles 2019-20 - No Chit!

Couldn't find BCs all time record at Agganis but add another W.

If I had to guess they gave the trophy in locker room.
