Ouch...you suck again! Lol.
What was Jay thinking?? Scrambling the lines? There was nothing wrong with them - all he needed to do was replace the injuries…. And he should have started Lacroix, or at the very least pulled Yegorov after 3 bad goals. He clearly wasn’t anywhere near his game. BU wasn’t skating or hard on the puck. Just a poor outing for the team, the staff and the keeper. We have a week to figure it out… we’ve got seriously tough schedule for the next two weeks
This program should not give out a roster spot to a kid the coaching staff doesn't trust to skate on the 4th line in a game in November.
Also, "reviewed for high sticking?" Not the goal scorer, right? They looked at it for 5 fucking minutes. Does video of this madness exist? 'cause you know the highlight package won't show it.
Goalie sucked. Defensive effort sucked.

Goalie did suck and should have been pulled.
D was just like last year.
And no confidence in a few players it seems not even dressing an extra skater.
Unfortunately, it was definitely a high stick by Ritchie (?) but it was also a delay of game by Harvard to end it. Bednarik was rightfully pissed but it shouldn’t have come down to that.

Also, Harvard had 6 kids from Mass on their roster (including 1 kid actually from Boston) to only 3 for BU. Harvard could win it all this year.
If we take care of business with BC in the first round of the Beanpot then we will take care of them in the final. Harvard did not look good and we got careless. Next Weds. is the test.
Not sure Big Mike sucked. Not his best night for sure, but he stopped a couple of breakaways at key points in the game, including the first BU PP. He kept them in the game. The GWG was a tough screen. I saw a defense that got picked apart and a Harvard team that was opportunistic and forced a lot of turnovers and got a lot of time and space in the O-zone.
That game to me was worse than the loss at Michigan State. Question on the high stick. I did see a high stick that looked like he completely missed the puck. If whoever it was (Ritchie?) had hit the puck it would have gone in and I remember saying to myself when it happened thank God he missed the puck because that would have been called back. Was there another one I missed? Because Harvey’s goal was not the result of a high stick.
Now to complain about something else because last night’s game has left me in such a bad mood. Is something off with the in game production? In previous years, didn’t they show the opposing team’s names on the scoreboard when being introduced? Didn’t they show the BU players graphics on the scoreboard when being introduced? The video of the players as they were being introduced was weird, too. They spotlight them as the skate to the blue line. Then shut the light off. But the video on the scoreboard screen shows them in the dark. And when they score, don’t they usually show the player graphics on the full screen? I noticed they were doing it on the small screen band. And the PA announcer - what was up with his “The teams are ready so let’s play hockey “ before the players were even near the face off circle? It all just seems…off.

Last night’s debacle dropped us in the NPI from #8 to #18. This kind of loss early in the season unfortunately has a long term impact.. with every successive game, it will become increasingly difficult to make a positive impact on the NPI because of the sheer number of games that accumulate nationally. What could have been Jay’s rationale for scrambling the lineup more than was necessary due to injuries? A fit of pique due to game #2 in Michigan?
As expected, the BU highlight package did not include the over-turned 6th BU goal. 
However, The College Hockey Network has excellent video of it. Bednarik did indeed touch the puck in front of the goal with a high stick. It just missed getting touched by a Harvard stick next, but Norringer played it and then the goal. The ref waived the high stick off because I guess he thought the Harvard kid touched the puck? Is everything reviewable in college hockey? It seems that way.
BU's Power Play in the first: Harvard had three good scoring chances, BU had zero. That's how you give a team life.
Big Mike didn't suck? 6 goals on 23 shots. That's suck anyway you slice it. (They only had 34 shot attempts!
)
According to Jay: Fondrk & Svoboda will be out for awhile. Celebrini & Wismer are day-to-day.
