Re: BU 2011-2012 Season: The bar is low, boys!
I look forward to hearing the comments from the negative nellys who were predicting the 7-1 BC type of result.
Looks like the sandbagging by some of you worked!!!
Millan was great. Hopefully we see that version of #31 around for the rest of the season.
Great? He was solid, but really didn't have to do a whole lot. For a guy BC has gotten to in the past, they couldn't/didn't make him work for it.
For. The. Love. Of. GOD!!!! If I hear students chanting "Scoreboard" without being up by 6 goals and more than 3 minutes to go I swear I will go to my friends in high places and track all of you down and revoke your ticket privileges.
What the hell is wrong with you????
Don't know if I'm the only one, but I usually cringe at most chants by both sides...
HUGE WIN, just like I predicted!!!!
Hahahahaha yayyyyy, big papa was right for once!!!
I think it is time that Jerry York retires. He has obviously lost the plot.
His team gets shutout at home and loses in front of a national television audience to a disinterested, mediocre opponent that has no powerplay, can't kill penalties, has inconsistent goaltending and a coach with questionable senility.
If the score had been reversed, people would be looking to string up Parker.
Maybe we can let the season play out without any knee-jerk reactions about any coaches that aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
Like some how the two are on equal ground lol. Parker deserves the crap York has been eating evreyones lunch for the past 13 years
Seriously, my god Cleverly...give it a rest. People have the right to criticize Parker as he's certainly opened himself up for that criticism. With a win like that today, your team shouldn't be 4-4-1.
oh and where are all those BC posters that have been hovering around here the last two weeks?
They also conspicuously disappeared from here around the second week of October 2008 through the summer of 2009. Not sure if that's a coincidence or not.
Jeesh, there was a Patriots game tonight, ya know. I'm here win or lose.
Congrats to you guys on reaching .500 and ending the five game losing streak to BC
You haven't had a whole lot to celebrate the last two years, so I don't blame you for taking advantage of the opportunity.
First of all, not to take anything away from you guys, but I think everyone would agree you caught BC on an off night.
That being said, if BU plays as thorough as that on a consistent basis, they should be tough to beat.
You look simply at shots on goal and this was hardly the typical "domination" you'd see in a 5-0 scoreline. By that I mean territorially.
But, I can't name one area where BC outplayed BU. That's where the "domination" comes in. BU looked like a desperate, focused team. We simply had no answers.
First time a team has gotten to Milner for more than three (I think). Not his best effort. We know he has some issues with rebounds, but even his side to side anticipation on the 5 on 3 goal was off. Will be interesting to see how he rebounds...
The biggest problem was no sustained offensive pressure and nothing on the PP. They could just never get into the game or even get the crowd into the game. We did not make things difficult on BUs defense. It was too easy for them all night. Only 21 shots is a problem too. In facing a goalie that you have gotten to before, put the puck on net. I'm all for the pretty play, but they were forcing things too much when passing lanes weren't there.
Very disappointing, but this is a rivalry...we aren't gonna beat them every time.
I dont disappear if you guys beat us, i am more likely to disappear if we won as i NEVER was one to rub it in because i am a firm believer in the"what comes around, goes around" thing...............as i said in the BC thread it was a total arse whipping
