BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

So the worst BU can finish is co-champion. Playoff seeding would go deep.
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

DoR is sitting on 99 career pts 44-55--99
looks like 50g is beyond reach as the boys probably have 4 games left this season.

and is O'Connor trying to play himself into a graduate school scholarship for next season?!?!? woof

bairllargesoenson appears to still be sick or hurt or whatever. he should probably rest for a month or two.
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

Dumb question. When I pulled the ticket for last night's game out of the season ticket booklet, I was surprised to see that's the last one.

I know that I should have spotted that long ago. Did I elect the wrong package; do we buy HE playoffs separately; or after last year, didn't the Arena expect to be hosting? I'll call up the office Monday, but just wonder where things stand.

The playoff games were not included in package. You can buy them now
Since hockey east gets the revenue decided not to include them
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

One man's opinion - The team isn't where it was a month ago. Being so young, I'd hoped, maybe expected, that the team would improve as the season wore on. Instead, it's regressed. Last night was the most glaring example of a trend we've seen over the past few weeks in which opponents trap BU deep in its own end of the ice. Also, what's the story with Baillargeon? Aside from the 2 on 1 with Rodrigues in the 3rd Period, I didn't notice him.

games 2&3 are being played at 4p. mookie is thankful he wasn't forced to buy them and then let them go unused

Unfortunately, I have to agree with all of this. I do think that NU is a VERY good team and that may be part of the issue, but the team is definitely not playing it's best hockey at the right time. Hopefully, that will change...
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

I think Eichel needs to seriously simplify his game if this team is going to get back on track. That one extra move or pass has been killing him and I believe it cost him At least twice last night.

Teams have caught on and they're just clogging up the middle of the ice inside the blue line where Jack likes to try to make all of his moves.

That said, I liked the resiliency in coming back twice last night even though they couldn't make it all the way back.

he had 4 sog last night. we don't have any blog'ers participating here any longer, but i would love to see his attempts. felt like he threw up 30 shot attempts and can't seem to hit the side of a barn. we have guys parked in front when he is doing his thing and may have a chance to bury some rebounds.... IF there were rebounds and not pucks working around the glass and out of the zone after jack is missing nets high, left, high, right, and high.

I really hope that a simple bye week will help them get re-focused. Because tonight, they have to play with everything they have on the line.
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

eichel has 16g, but 2 of them are eng.

so his shots on goal with a goalie give him a 11.8% shooting pct.
matt lane is 10.3%

tyler seguin is 13.4%
patrick kane is 13.6%
john tavares is 13.4%

At least he's not missing low. Or would that be more impressive? By the way, did anyone catch a replay of the no goal last night? Only thing I can guess is goalie interference but it didn't look like it live. Would be nice if Agganis would show replays.

agree. that deserved a replay for us paying customers.

and no. a low shot would perhaps find a stick of a terrier :D after a hop, skip, and a jump ;)
 
Re: BU Season Thread II: The Resurgence

bu has 7 losses and 5 ties.

remarkably, 5 of those L's have come at #wwa (as well as 3 of the ties).
