I know either one scares me, Harvard has the better first line but BC has the pedigree

I would argue that Harvard has at the very least, 2 lines (#1 and #2) that are better than BC, and potentially line #3 as well. Harvard is much healthier than it was in the Beanpot with Blackwell and McNally back. BC has better D.

"Pedigree?" Jeez...why is everyone so paranoid? So BU DOESN'T have any "predigree?" I guess nobody remembers the 70s and 80s when BC almost never beat us. Where is all this sudden paranoia coming from? This is what I think. North Dakota scares me (look up our record against THEM in the NCAA tournament). Miami scares me. Mankato scares me. ALL of these schools have "pedigree," that's why they're here...because they have great programs.

This thing is taking on a life of its own. Enjoy this team, people. You may not see another one like it for awhile...

I'm fine with reviews, but it seems to me that way too many goals are reviewed. It must have averaged one or two per game just for BU goals. Some of them I couldn't even imagine what they were reviewing. That review against UNH on Friday was outrageous. It was very clear live that the player was not in the crease. On a similar note, after the goaltender interference call last night I think they really need to review how they call that penalty. My understanding is that the area outside the crease does not belong to the goalie. If a player is skating in front of the net watching the play and runs into the goalie because the goalie is 2 feet outside of the crease I really don't see how that's goaltender interference. My last gripe is not showing replays. I've accepted that Agganis won't show replays of most penalties or any reviewed goals, but the garden always did. I don't understand the reasoning behind it, but not showing the replay does not prevent the crowd from getting rowdy about the call. It's just another reason so stay at home and watch the game on tv where they'll show the replay over and over and offer analysis. Oh yeah and the beers. $10 for a ******** beer. Are you kidding me? It's no wonder only about 200 students showed up. Oh and getting stuck between stops underground on the T for 45 minutes certainly doesn't help.

Agree 100%..but again...it's not going to change. Technology is the way of life now. Everyone assumes it is the better option 100% of the time. The big buzz phrase now is "It's better that they <b><i>Get it right</i></b>." They don't care if the games last four hours or anything else. We have become slaves to technology.

Yup. I stayed out of this one because I have a REAL problem with the entire replay concept. Humans play the game...humans should referee it. Period. Now they want to have technology to call balls and strikes in baseball. There has been a proposal to have "negative" replays in the NFL (challenge a play when a foul was NOT called). It's going to get worse, folks. Big Brother is intruding into our lives on an unprecedented scale. On the "motorways" in the UK they have cameras EVERY MILE and if you are caught speeding you get sent a ticket in the mail. We're NEVER going back to the "way it was" and it will be the destruction of us all...

Well that escalated quickly.

I don't understand why they released the #1 seeds like that. The field is only 16 teams. Where's the drama if a quarter of the teams are announced before the show???? That's part of the excitement of the selection show.

Re: BU 2014-15 season threat III - Jasmine gets to see us 4 more times

Oh! I meant to bring this up here last night before I was totally distracted with the potential NCAA seedings discussion...

How on earth does a Notre Dame player make the All Tournament Team?? I got the UNH player. UNH actually played at the Garden. Has a player ever made the All Tournament Team that didn't make it to the Conference Championship? There had to have been one or two Lowell players that should have taken that kid's spot. I'm not trying to disparage Notre Dame. I saw them play. They have some really good players. But their season ended weeks ago. He had that amazing of a series?? It was bad enough Evan Rodrigues got screwed out of a HE First Team spot, but this? I'm not sure how that even happens.

mookie recalls mike pandolfo making it one year when he scored a bunch of goals in the best of three...

Serious question: Do BU fans in the Boston area actually stay in Manchester? When I was there in 09, I went there, turned around and went home afterwards. I know bars and dinner and whatnot, but I was fine not staying around.

There is no drama anymore, Bracketology has taken care of that.
