Gilroy is a healthy scratch because the Rangers defense has been sucking, and Tortorella won't bench veterans like Redden or Rozsival (the guys behind this suckage)
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

Federal League can I get some commentary on how BU is going to get competitive again with BC in the national picture. Since York took over and by the time his first recruiting class was seniors its been an absolute butt kicking BC over BU on the national scene. Parker has been trumped every which way by York from the recruiting end, late season peformance, character teams, HE titles, NCAA tourney wins, FF appearances, NC titles.

I used to always come back with BU's more NC titles, 90's FF dominance, but that is becoming further and further away and less relevant. BU run last year now looks like the aberration in a pretty futile national stretch. Things look tough next year and if so then that will be 3 out of 4 years without an NCAA appearance. That is a tough trend for a school that should be going head to head with BC for national prominence each year from the East. Its like the old "hammer and nail" rivalry joke.

What and most importantly who has to change. Without a few "own" goals and another Miami meltdown last year, I have to believe that there would be a lot of restless people around here versus what looks like complacency.

At this point I can only sit back and admire and envy BC's program, no hatred just respect.
Thanks

Colby Cohen named a first team All-American.

Great for him, and I don't really mean to be a jerk, but did they watch him, or did they just look at his stat line and go "Wow, he can score!" ??

I think it's evident that they saw the number of goals.

If I knew the answer to any of this, I'd be coaching the team, not covering it.
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

I would like to see Gilroy do well too. But the truth is the Rangers have gone something like 7 1 1 since he's been scratched. He needs a little seasoning.;)
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

The fact that this year's team beat BC twice and played a third close game makes this season all the more frustrating. With a better attitude and more desire, BU could have a much better season.
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

It shows me that Hockey East did not have as weak a season as originally thought. Jeez, almost any of the Hockey East schools would have been more of a challenge at the FF this year.

true, though BC is playing at another level right now as they always seem to do. but i agree it was a very overall mediocre year and even we couldve put a better product on the ice in this tournament than some of these other teams. can you imagine if maine didnt **** themselves in october and november and made it with their hot streak in march?
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

well I'd say that BU is going to continue the BC/BU/BC/?? pattern and win the national championship, but Barry ****ing Melrose already jinxed that :rolleyes:

silver lining... Brett Bennett is still championship-less

stupid BC... they deserved it though
 
Re: Boston University 2010 Offseason I - The Year after the Year after effect

This had nothing to do with Hockey East. This has to do with a program and coaching staff that just put on an absolute clinic in the FF. BU would have lost 9-0 to the BC team that played tonight.

I like the idea of 4 in a row for Comm Ave... so long as the 4th is from our end of Comm Ave!

So... who do we have next year?

Could be a long summer.....

I don't think "frustrating" is the word. Remember, we play against them at least three or four times every year. Wisconsin didn't know what hit them. In each game with them (people forget, because such a big deal was made about the Frozen Fenway game), we hung on as they dominated the last period and a half. They wear you out, and the Badgers couldn't skate with them. Blaming "desire" is an oversimplification. BC won 29 games this year because they are a consistently better program than BU right now. Two wins the regular season is hardly comparable when you're talking about a team that has been in the FF four out of the last five years (and would have been there all five but not for the 3 goal outburst in the Hockey East Semifinal last year). What we should be addressing is how our progam can get back to that kind of dominance.

And along those lines, can we please dispense with the "BC sucks" garbage? It makes us look like *******es.

When we're playing other teams, I actually agree. I have no reason to tell UMass that BC sucks. They can find that out on their own. Okay, they can't, but they SHOULD be able to.

When BC is in the building, however, they need to be told that, and the record/accomplishments really have nothing to do with it.
