Boston University off-season thread (preparing for 16/17).

I'm definitely feeling a lot better about them all showing up now. With the quotes from Bellows and Fabbro about the coaching staff, there appears to be no doubt they are coming. As far as Keller goes, it seems more and more like he is just trying to be nice to Windsor at this point. Heck, if he's the one that helped convince all these other guys to come (don't forget Oettinger who is a big piece as well, just not getting the press since he isn't draft-eligible until next year), I just don't see him changing his mind.

I'll definitely be trying to get to more games this season.

From the looks of it, Keller could be a better player than Eichel was as a freshman, and would certainly have a strong set of teammates.

So that explains the presence of two Illinois natives on the roster. :rolleyes:

BurnTheBoats's latest roster projections, including newest recruit Gabe Chabot, who converted from defense to RW last year and led USPHL Rochester in scoring. It lists Fortunato as a forward, which had been rumored recently, but have seen no confirmation that it's the plan.

How in the world could Fortunato play forward? He can't shoot.

One goal in 2014-15. Five last season. Sky's the limit! ;)

We used to have a great saying on our team... "Couldn't hit a cow in the a** with a shovel" (usually describing my goal-scoring exploits). :D

Six Terriers (2 current, 4 frosh) named to US Junior National Team evaluation camp. Greenway, McAvoy, Bellows, Keller, Krys, Oettinger.
And Fabbro should be a lock for Team Canada. WJC Gold Medal game is Thursday, Jan. 5, same date as scheduled home game vs. Union. That needs to be changed.

That date made no sense when the schedule was announced. Both teams do not have a game between Jan 5th and Jan 13th. Mid week games draw badly enough and without students there it will be a very small crowd. Also Bu has avoided holiday tourneys the past few years so are well aware of world junior dates
Since it is in Canada a shift of 2 days would not be a problem

It appears BU did have a game scheduled for 7 January after all.

Interesting that they paired the BU and BC games on the same night. Won't do much for attendance for the second night.

I won't be attending anyways, I just went to the original game. Should be a fun night at T's Pub. ;)

No whining, just acceptance and rejection. (Good line Scarlet)
