Neither of his two would qualify as a quality offensive play. He's improved his game quite a bit but his first was a Brian Strait-esque seeing-eye shot and the second was a tap in on a loose puck in front of the net.

Yeah, that was a fustercluck of epic proportions. Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. Still, never should’ve come to that. Seemed like the team was waiting for the clock to run out and play OT.

Again, another poor second period of play. That is baffling to me. Last night they battled back in the first to tie it at 2. Was hoping that momentum would grow in the second.

For a game they moved up because of the storm, there were so many things that caused delays. The double review of BU’s goal. The issue with the glass. A penalty shot. A review of a penalty. Was there anything else?

One of the more frustrating losses in recent years. Between the timing of the GWG, Oettinger allowing a very soft 1st goal, BU not able to get a go-ahead goal in 3rd despite throwing everything at QU's way, and the job Shea/Gravellese did officiating the game...

You forgot to mention: "and the guy who scored the winning goal (Why can't we get players like that?)"

Sounds like I missed a stomach punch loss.

Onto Merrimack.
 
Re: BU Terriers 2018-19: Albie in Charge

Some good signs:
- Scoring from the bottom 6 forwards (putting Quercia in top 6) is trending up since coming back from break. 13 points in the last four games from the likes of Cloonan, Amonte, DeBoer, Curry, and Willman. 5 points from this group yesterday alone. Bottom-line scoring against top quality competition is a very positive sign moving forward, and something many here have rightfully complained about being absent in the past.
- The team has erased a third period deficit in three of the four games and quashed the push by UNH in the other. Bad that they got down to begin with, but good to see resilience in striking back instead of folding like earlier in the year.
- Farabee has elevated his game - 2G 3A since break.

Ha! I remember that.

Anyhoo...there’s a game today. I was so annoyed and frustrated after Saturday night I was thinking of not going today, but I probably will. Provided my car starts. Thankful for the parking garage at Agganis!
 
Re: BU Terriers 2018-19: Albie in Charge

He missed an open net first, then managed to score, and then they had to review it. But yay! He scored! And Max Willman scored his first, too.
 
Re: BU Terriers 2018-19: Albie in Charge

Cockerill got a fighting major and game DQ for the kerfuffle at the end. Automatic one-game suspension.
 
Re: BU Terriers 2018-19: Albie in Charge

And DQ was in the house.

And the Cubs fan got into the game! (All 6'6" of him.)

And they scored 3 power play goals!!

I headed over to the Agganis tonight as my son had 5 tix to a very empty arena on MLK day! Having seen UMASS v NU on Friday and SAT night my thoughts are, UMASS is a man among boyz! That said, this was a fun game to watch and really had some good though a bit sloppy hockey with lots of end to end action that even included a nice 5 for fighting with many punches thrown both before and after the whistle by a tough BU player who had taken a cheep leg check at the blue line in the 3rd after the game was already a blow out. I love the tenacity and am hoping for a good Beanpot! Merrimack looked really disorganized and every bit a bottom feeder of HE tonight, I have seem them look ok but only when their goalie is standing on his head. BU can make a move I suspect and saw them just off the top 20 in this weeks poll!
