not much chatter. random thought, think i saw a couple things on twitter about bc meeting with under armour/potentially going in a different direction. not sure if that will happen but in any event, why not just use the same design as the golds for the whites and maroons?

Going in another direction --> Redesign the uniforms? Need to keep one of the gold jerseys as a 3rd for sure (I liked the 2012 one better). Go back to one with an eagle on the front (white home). And then figure out something for a maroon jersey. Get rid of the puke squigglies. Oh and add another star to the back. :D

What are people's plans for pregame? Relying on the bar scene vs tailgating? Any suggestions?

Haven't been to Philly in 15 years so I'm in the dark here.

Driving in Thursday... will probably be cutting it close. My bet is to go to the Xfinity place in the complex ASAP after we get into town for a little bit before the game starts. Saturday is probably going to be a tailgate. Friday I have no idea what I'm doing on the free day. Only booked for Thursday night so far.

Driving in Thursday too. Check into hotel near merion then head to rink. Friday was gonna be golf but now weather looks crappy :( so may just hit reading and M&N with the boys. Hope weather clears early Saturday then and play by ear

Take the 2014 gold jersey, recolorize as the primaries in a white and a maroon. Replace the eagle on the shoulder with the academic logo.

Take the 2012 gold jersey as the 3rd jersey.

Add a star.

Done.

Just got two passes to the Hobey Baker! I may, repeat May, have one extra.

I wouldn't be surprised if New Balance/Warrior took over for UA.

Why do you say that? They (ua) have a contract with BC through summer of 2016. That logo will be on the uniform until then. We'll see what happens after that but with the athletics contract as a whole you're only going to see the biggies (nike, UA, Adidas) since football is part of the deal.

Look at who makes Liverpool's kit. I think the FSG ties is one reason along with NB's headquarters being right down the road from BC's campus.
 
Re: Boston College Hockey '13-'14: Tournament Season - One Game At A Time!

It would be a death wish for the FB program to have Warrior/NB get the next contract. Add Reebok to the list of the previous 3 (which BC had prior to moving to UA). They probably won't even bid but if they did and outsourced things like UA does now with the hockey uniforms and slaps their logo on them, it will be a killer for the fb program for recruiting.

He's a real treat isn't he? Just remember not to get me confused with the guy, BC fans.
 
Re: Boston College Hockey '13-'14: Tournament Season - One Game At A Time!

as long as you don't scour the internet all day for anything and everything that mentions union and/or bc, won't be any confusion!
