So if BU and UML both split, UML get's 4th? Must have to do with the 2nd level tiebreaker (head to head is a split).

If they split UML will have better record against BC thus beating out BU but if both get swept BC will get #1 and BU will have better record 1pt vs BC vs 0 for UML. That tie Friday limited their path

As per Brian Kelley's Twitter last night:

Here are scenarios for @TerrierHockey: Sweep of ND secures 3rd. BU is 4th if it earns 1 more point than Lowell or both teams are swept.

While I am a proponent of not worrying about what other teams do because you should be in control of your own destiny, BU could be in the position to need BC's help to secure a bye. And that never works. Ever.

With PC sweeping this weekend then BC should have something to play for which helps.

Not entirely true, if Lowell ties BC twice and we got a W/L with ND, we get the tiebreak due to overall conference wins. Also, if both BU and Lowell sweep, after hell freezes over we'd get the 3 spot, Lowell the 4, and ND 5.

And PC wins the conference. Out of all the timelines(except one where Lowell finishes 3) this sounds like the best.

Unless the UMass AD has their heads up their *** he shouldn't be retained short of winning the HET.

So 50-50 chance, considering their AD only cares about football, and their squeakyball team has been bad this year too.

President Meehan sounded concerned about the state of UMA hockey during an interview on the UML broadcast Saturday night. I can't imagine Meehan would stand for another season of this considering he canned Blaise MacDonald after the 5 win UML season five seasons ago. Since then UML has five straight 20 win seasons. Not that we want to see UMA getting all dominant but a little more competitive and relevant would be ok.

While games against UMass have been funny lately, it's better for the conference overall for them to not be a perennial dumpster fire.

Exactly. I'd be happy with mid-pack, just enough to not challenge UML's supremacy in the UMass world!:D

In the end someone has to finish last. And I will always hope it's Amherst

If you guys could sweep Notre Dame so I don't have to fly to South Bend for a theoretical second round matchup that'd be super fantastic and helpful. Love, Northeastern.

so if we lose grizz, somerby, macleod, and hickey (always a possibility) and charlie (depending on where he's picked and by whom). that means--- :eek:

No "if" on Grizz. :p But no worries, the recruiting thread has the 83-84 Edmonton Oilers coming in next season. :) :)

BU Hockey: Cha, cha, cha changes...

Will someone refresh my memory, please? Was MacLeod a Quinn/Greeley or Parker recruit?
 
Re: Boston University 2015-16 thread part 2-move along! nothing to see here! all is w

Parker, he committed before Eichel actually.

Out of last year's Freshman class, Eichel, MacLeod and Piccinich committed when Parker was still the HC. All of this year's Freshmen committed under Quinn.

As for the current Juniors, Roberto, Lawrence and TJ Ryan (if he was still on the team) are the only ones who committed under Quinn. Somerby, Baillargeon and Kelley are the only ones remaining in that class who committed under Parker.
