Even you know that that post was sarcastic and clearly a jab at an individual. Really has nothing to do with my post.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
I just didn't feel like searching the thread for the 30 or so posts that said Muse was the second coming of christ. It happened to be the first one I came across.
But even you, assuming you have read past posts on this thread, can't seriously state that "not even BC fans say he is a great regular season goalie" or that he shouldn't be an all HE team selection.
I can find you several BC fans that think he should not only be an all HE, but an all American and upon graduation should be given an ambassadorship to the country of his choice until his 35th birthday at which point he shall be installed as the next King of the United States.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
This is too easy. Prove it.
Show me one or more posts from BC fans calling Muse a great regular season goalie/that he should have been an all hockey east selection.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
there is no argument that he wasn't the best anything in 2009 and last year he wasnt the best goalie on the team until Milner had the stinkeroo vs UMass in the HE tourney. 2008? he averaged .56 goals against MORE than Regan did for UNH in conference games. we all know what he did in the tourneys that year, so, all that being said, i am thinking there can't be a lot (any?) BC fans that think he was the best goalie in HE in any of his 3 years, but with Muse, we all know it aint about the numbers........

Nah, do you own searching. You will just argue semantics over any quote anyhow and in the end we will just be arguing over innuendo and insinuations.
Really not worth the time. I mean really since you acknowledge that Muse is just an average goalie during the regular season that steps up come playoffs the rest is moot anyways.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
Exactly. He is, however, undoubtedly the best money goaltender in college hockey.
jcarter, that means in the playoffs/big stage.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
Slasher.... In his opinion the goalie in HE with the best statistics didn't belong in the same sentance with Muse.... just saying. There may not be many, but those that do worship at the Muse altar are vocal, that's for sure.
Anywho, I can't believe even with my top ten flamefest cinders we somehow got back to Muse... jeez.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
You probably won't find that. Although you might find someone suggesting that Chris Venti is better than anyone else in HE because the stats are the only thing that matter!!!!
Muse was merely the 2nd half of the best tandem in HE last year.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
LOL. In other words, you have nothing.
I didn't go as far to say he's just an "average" regular season goalie. Not an all star, but slightly above average. He was 5th out of 13 HE goalies in save percentage last year (league games only). And he was 4th out of 11 when you take into consideration all games. This is courtesy of Hockey East Online.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
It would be nice if you offered the actual quote along with the context of the argument, but slasher can come on here and defend himself.
John Muse has won two national titles and has ridiculous postseason numbers. That's why we "worship at the Muse altar."

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
I actually had hope for this post to go somewhere interesting. Hope = dashed
Less than two months to open the season. Let's see some projections.
I'll start with Mack is overrated. NU and UVM are underrated. UNH and BU are rather large question marks - as they often are - but their depth always seems to overcome the questions. And is Maine really as good as they would project based on last year or was last year a gift and now that they are being respected again they will find the going tougher?
And which one of UMASS, UML or PC are likely to surprise to the upside?

Hard to say who's underrated/overrated before even a preseason poll comes out, but I think Merrimack is in good shape when you consider they came in 6th last year and one team in front of them (UML) lost a ton. I think MC is right in the 4-6 range. Are you saying they'll finish 7th or worse?
Under Umile, UNH has been questioned a few times, but they haven't finished lower than 4th since 1995-1996. That's incredible.
Only question for me (big one, I know) is the goaltending. Who is their #1?
I'll just say PC since everyone is picking them for 10th. Can't go anywhere but up...

Coyle and Nieto will be players to watch. I believe BC tried to recruit Nieto.

Re: Hockey East 2010-2011
Found this from USHR from when he committed:
"Nieto’s final choice was between Boston University and major junior. There were no other colleges in the picture."
Not sure how that happened, but looks like BU was simply competing with the CHL.

its amazing that no other schools recruited him... then he got in trouble and there was talk of him going to canada to play.. then he gets sent home early from the WJC camp. very odd. i guess BU didnt learn from the jason lawrence experiment. this guy has bust written all over him.

lawrence has an outstanding sr season. if you want to use sabo as an example that's one thing, but jason came through at the end.
