Look, I don't really care one way or the other, but was Mike Cornell a big recruit?

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
I wouldn't say so. Comparatively late addition if I remember correctly.
He was an all-star team participant playing in Eastern Junior, but as Hokydad will point out, accolaydes in that league may be taken with a grain of salt, and almost everyone invited to play for any sort of NCAA contender can say something like that. He wasn't even the top defenseman on his team with the Jr Monarchs. When Inside College Hockey did their recruiting ranking piece last year, they included 7 Hockey East defenseman in their top-20, and Cornell wasn't on that list.
He earned his playing time by the 2nd half through heads up decisions and big hits.
His +/- may not have been pretty, but he also spent a good amount of time playing on the 3rd pairing, again in the 2nd half of the season.....mind you, during that time there was a stretch that Maine lost 7 of 9.
Hard to blame a 3rd line freshman for the team's slump; a drunken goalie; or Dave Wilson pre-playoffs.
I just don't understand why he opted to pick on him over someone like Hegarty who is a junior from U-18 and has been pretty "eh..." through 2 years. Was it just because his last name made for better writing material?

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
Yeah, I agree on Hegarty. After seeing his toughness when he was on the U-18 team I expected more from him. Chit he went toe to toe with Bellamy in that game. I gotta say I've been a little bit disappointed in Hegarty. Time for him to step up. Darling was jobbed.

Is it too late to add Kreider from BC?

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
The BC fanboys will be quick to remind you that Kreider (and Patrick Wey
) have 2010 National Championship rings, and are therefore 'disqualified' for HE Milk Carton consideratiion.

Does TOPPS sell "Sophomore Star Hockey Cards" (complete with slabs of pink bubble gum)? If so, forward John Henrion and defenseman Connor Hardowa would be in the first pack.
John Henrion - 7 GP; 4G, 3A, 7Pts; +6 Rating; 25 SOG.
Goals scored against Miami, Cornell, BC and UMass Lowell (game winner).
Connor Hardowa - 7 GP; 1G, 4A, 5Pts; +5 Rating; 9 SOG.

But it's not... it's a milk carton thread.
Please visit USCollegeBaseballOnline to submit your bubble gum nominees.
I suppose that might matter if this were a bubble gum thread.

Bubble gum thread??
You mean the type that is blown out of proportion and filled with hot air?
Sounds dead on. No?

He started it. 
And it isn't a bubble gum thread... it would be a baseball thread. You are certainly making this a whole lot more complicated than it has to be.
Hey... don't look at me.

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
Maybe somebody taped a copy of the "All-Milk Carton Team" thread on Henrion's and Hardowa's lockers.
Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
I noticed that you are a bit cranky there Ductapedad. I guess your prey must have gotten away last night without you getting a chance to lotion his skin or give him the hose again!!!
So why don't you tell us all once again how "they are ALL good kids". OK, perv!!!
I'll let you get back to chatting with your defense lawyer... I'm sure you have a big day tomorrow when court is back in session.

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
Well, if you're going to use that criteria, then why not create a "Postseason milk carton team" at the end of the prior season when said-mentioned players appeared to be missing?
It would seem to me that would be a lot more relevent?
The only "double fail" here is 1. BC fanboys who consistently show that they can't win with class, and 2. Preseason "busts" who prove these BC fanboys wrong time and time again.

Re: Hockey East: Preseason All-Milk Carton team
Uh, no.
I could honestly care two chits about who is on this stupid "preseason" imaginary team, as well as the criteria that determines "the selections". I just like to laugh at the ridiculousness of the geniuses who created it.

Who exactly are the BC fanboys? If you didn't notice, this thread is run by one person. There are no co-authors. Also, it's strictly a joke. The fact some of you get so upset about all this really is amazing.
LOL
