Only thing I heard was Quinn's quote after the game that preliminary indications are that it's not too serious.

And the Clarkson Golden Knights have won 14 in a row. Wait, what!?
Ain’t this the truth. My God...

Grier is an asst at St Sebs. Not sure if he works as a scout. Did see Brett Petersen at the game today. I know he works games for agency he works for. Not sure if he has a scout gig also.

Grier is a Blackhawks scout in addition to this job at St. Seb's.

I know MC swept last year, but I was surprised that in the last 10 regular season games, they are 4-4-2 against the Terriers (BU smoked them a couple times in the playoffs).. Should be a good series.

Again, The Hack are a bunch of 24 year-old undrafted MEN. How the heck are our highly drafted KIDS supposed to compete against them? #UnFair #Sad

Besides Harvard, the rest of your schedule is an absolute laugher. No idea if you'll take advantage of it but the opportunity is there. I also don't know how much winning these crap games will help in the PWR. I'll leave that to the experts. At the very least, a chance to solidify your Hockey East positioning for when the league has it's royal rumble to determine the one NCAA tournament team

I can't imagine there is any way we can get an at large at this point (even if we win the rest of our games), but I haven't tried to figure that out. Given the talent on this team, all I am hoping for is that we get things figured at the right time and win the HE tourney. It doesn't help that Greenway will be gone for a big chunk of that time.

I don't think Greenway is much of a loss.

This team is not going to the NCAA's. Their ceiling is to make the Garden for the Hockey East Semi's. As Bill Parcells used to say: "You are what your record says you are."
BU Hockey: No PWR Talk Required

The way he has played to date, I agree, he ins't a big loss. But if we were to get on some kind of run, I think he would be a key piece of it. SO it would suck if he found his game, helped us get a nice run started, and then had to leave.

BU's PWR won't get high enough to get an at-large but with the more favorable schedule BU should finish in the top 4 in Hockey East and get a first round bye. BU is 5th in HEA winning percentage right now so it is definitely attainable. Once you get into the Garden who knows. NU, and to a lesser extent PC, are frontrunners right now but are beatable IMO. Should BU accomplish the surprise, I would expect a first round exit to {insert some NCHC team here} in the NCAAs.
Losing Greenway will hurt more than some think (even if he doesn't score his size opens opportunities), some people didn't think we'd miss McAvoy that much and I think the results speak for themselves. At least it gives players that will be coming back next season some more playing time.
