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

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

I don't disagree but it was all I could come up with based on his clues. Plus, I checked his Twitter account and it seems as if he's removed any mention of BU from his profile.

You're right, makes sense. Maybe Hoky was bored tonight.

You see... he's doing a music thing.

He went with "stronger" to confuse everyone. Was he talking Christina Aguilera or was he hinting that someone was transferring to (Kelly) Clarkson. Or is it Keller (Clarkson) going to Canada?

Then he went with Wild World. Was someone becoming a (Wild)Cat (Stevens) and transferring to UNH? Nope. It was all a trick... a cover if you will ... "Mr. Big" aka Greenway going to the Minnesota Wild.

Silly Hokydad, Trix are for kids.

BU still has him listed on their website, but all that is on his bio page is his name, position and picture. If you google him you can find a copy of the cached page, so someone removed the information.

IMHO, "hardly knew ya" could refer to a rising sophomore. Considering that 4 years is the "norm", 1 would still be "hardly" in my book.

If the S&C coach is moving in, I think we'll recover. Nobody was bigger than Boyle and we've survived.

If Greenway is signing a deal with the Wild, good for him. Tough to lose him as he really came into his own down the stretch. But I figured he would be gone in one more year for sure.

I'm sure it's not Somerby. He was expected to be gone, but loves BU so much he wants to play out his senior year, at least that is what I heard. And we certainly "knew" him.

This tweet just hit:

"Spoke with BU defenseman Charlie McAvoy (No. 6 NA by Central Scouting). He's *very* excited about BU's prospects this season."

Great, but did he say it with strength? Wildness? :D
 
Re: Boston University off-season thread (preparing for 16/17).

I don't think McAvoy is a flight risk this year. While his talent level is extraordinary, he's still incredibly raw and needs development from a skill and physical perspective to succeed in the NHL. Not to mention he won't be 19 until Christmas, what's the rush? After this season him, Greenway, and JFK would all be flight risks for sure.

Another Tweet about McAvoy, this one from NHL.com's Mike Morreale:

At the end of VO2 max test for @CMcAvoy44 (BU), @NHLCentralScout David Gregory said "His legs would have to fall off for that kid to quit"
 
Re: Boston University off-season thread (preparing for 16/17).

Does anyone have any further info/guesses on what Hokydad is referring to?
