Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

Some good stats:

Witt still leads the NCAA in save percentage at .940
Szmatula leads all freshmen in points per game at 1.12
Roy is 6th in the nation with 42 points
.

All good reasons I just don't understand why there hasn't been more buzz about this team

..cause we gotta win something..
perhaps a beanpot (maybe nxt yr), or HE tourney title(maybe this yr) or HE reg season title (maybe nxt yr) or ncaa opening rounds.. (maybe this yr)..
something like that will get the buzz going .. :)

I'm not buying that. I'm calling out the Sports Information guy who hasn't done much, IMO, other than (maybe) have a hand in the cool Beanpot vid.

..you might be on to something. our last guy is now working in the same (expanded) role at bc. he was pretty good but moved on to what i think was a promotion. we need the new staff to step it up, it'll help for sure..

Jack Grinold, in his heyday, would be all over this.

9 suspended? That would mean they had no roster left to even play. Crazy rumor.
 
Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

If you are going to count on BC/bu posters to second your twisted view of the NU program, you are very needy. Your pathological dislike for Jim Madigan and his coaching skills as well as your complete misunderstanding of what motivated him to leave his CBA Development position for his dream job simply confirm that you are out of your depth when posting about such things.

Do this: Call Jim on the phone. Identify yourself as a long time Husky hockey supporter who would enjoy having lunch with him. He'll probably make a date with you for a time when things have cooedl down a bit and will probably offer to pay for the meal. You'll benefit from meeting the man and from learning how he views the world. You'll get all of your questions answered. Then you will be able to post more rationally and constructively with a better understanding of the challenges he faces and how he deals with them.

Our mutual friend, TMM, will benefit as well.;)

Great post.

Having spoken with a few posters on both USCHO and DHD, we have found many posts over time on both Forums that would indicate to any rational individual that both Huskies01 and TMM are one-in-the-same. He has denied it of course but just too many coincidences in posts on both forums exist.

Of course he is! (There couldn't two such negative posters out there!)
Same perpetual negativity on the same subjects. Same strange grammar and spelling errors (what does "convivent" mean?). Same anti-Madigan obsession. He protects himself from disappointment by never expecting anything positive to happen to the team. He probably has a tattoo that says "We never win a big game, and we never will". If we ever win Hockey East, he'll need to be watched - carefully:eek:

If you feel he is a kindred soul, I invite you to visit/Dieharddogs.com where you can expose yourself to more of his warmth and optimism.:rolleyes:

I have actually never denied it. It was pretty obvious and been called out before. Heck, my signatures are the same for both! Its not like I have gone out of my way to make the two accounts different.

My agenda is not of course anti-Madgian, its pro NU Hockey. I will say again what I said before multiple times, I hope I AM WRONG ABOUT HIM.

Some of you have just become buddy-buddy with the man over the years and refuse to look at the TEAM and the ON ICE PRODUCT.

Its been a great season. They have played hard just about every game this year. But they have also been really lucky and ridden a top Goalie to get this point. The coaching has been nothing special. Sorry. It is what it is. Any down spiral from Clay Witt and this whole thing comes off the rails.

So yeah, I refuse to get really high on this team. When every game is a 1 goal game, at some point you are going to be on the wrong end of it. They have been more lucky then good to be on the right side of it this season.

Though I will say again, last weekend was easily the best performance this team had on back to back nights against a good team all year. Makes me feel confident for the playoffs in two weeks.

For anybody who believes in the quote "i rather be lucky then good" the 2013-2014 Huskies are your team!

As I suggested, your credo must be "Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed". I hope you aren't a salesman. That would be tragic. Did you propose to your wife by saying something like" I know you probably aren't interested, but I really have to ask you a question...?:D;)

Your better off just ignoring him. That is what I am doing now.

I am more old fashioned, i hit her with a club over the head.

Right now I do not expect much from this team. Its probably why I have enjoyed the season so much.
 
Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

Has anyone have any insight if this suspension at BU is for real?
 
Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

Sources have confirmed to BC Hockey Blog and The Boston Hockey Blog at least three BU players will be suspended tonight. It might get ugly tonight.
 
Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

I like how the bu blog had to confirm through a BC blog.

Not for nothing, these two games better get ugly in our favor. Good way to buff up the stats a bit.

Start Mountain tomorrow for senior night?
 
Re: Northeastern Huskies 2013-14 Season Thread II: In Witt we Trust

Hedges is back tonight, looks like he's centering Reid and Snydeman. Not sure on Manson yet.

EDIT: No Manson or Benning. Gunn/Darou Dax/Sauce Fennell/Sheks
