Greer will have Rouyn-Noranda by the end of the week. It is too early to know whether it will be in uniform face the Foreurs
Interesting. With the way BU has been recruiting you have to think this is going to happen a lot more frequently.

I suspect Nick was referring to the situation I speculated below. Loads of offensive coming in the fall, stats not been there for him so far, foresaw himself as being overshadowed by them, wanted to boost his stock putting up #s against a bunch of teenagers.not sure of the correlation there.
Wondering what happened there. I talked to Bernie Corbett as I was leaving QPac on Saturday and he told me it was a dislocated shoulder and was popped back in. I wonder if they didn't get the chance to fully evaluate him there after the hit? That stinks - it's his senior year!
Ouch.

Multiple sources saying BU's Ahti Oksanen out for the year. One source did say team will reevaluate him after break.

Who knows, probably was reevaluated, possibly saw a doctor and they discovered something else.
They did...just heard. torn labrum. Greeeeeeeeeeat.
So ... that was a pretty quick and decisive end to this season. Wow. I find it tough to have a lot of respect for Greer or, before him, Coyle, for not only leaving mid-season, but also going to a league where they can put up more points because their opponents are younger.
Also, there is something up with Roberto. No one who played every game for two seasons gets benched for off-ice conduct for a year. If his violation of team rules was bad enough for a year-long suspension, he either would have left for another league or transferred to another NCAA school, or Quinn would have kicked him off the team. I am just not buying that something could have been so serious that a year-long suspension is appropriate but not serious enough for him to be dismissed. It wouldn't surprise me if he was benched for the first game or two and then suffered a concussion in practice before getting a chance to play in his first game.
As for Ahti ... ouch. I really enjoyed watching him play. Had a pretty nice career here. Definitely has an NHL-ready shot but the rest of his game will probably relegate him to being a pretty good AHL player.
FWIW, new reports have emerged that there has been no decision by AJ and that BU "does not expect AJ Greer to leave school." Whatever that all means. Also, I've heard Roberto's troubles may have something to do with academics, but I have no idea on the validity. Timeline would make sense, if he was on probation for the fall semester with his future status determined by how well he did in school this semester. Also, another report on Ahti said no determination has been made either way on when or if he'll return. Whole lot of gray area today.
