NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

Say, this is nice.
I want to see if this thread can break 10 posts.

I have no idea what PC will be like. Better than last year, I'd hope. But the standards weren't too high.

When the hell is the last time we beat NU anyways?

According to the GoNU overview of the game, it was January of 2008, we lost 5-2.

I'll be in attendance, it was fun last year to heckle the PC fans. I think the Northeastern student section outnumbered the PC students.

Always wary of home openers in Hockey East (away from Matthews). This one is early in the season.. PC will be pumped & ready to get out to a good start. NU will be looking to shake off a 'average performance' in exhibition game. Either team by a goal.. no more.
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

Good luck to NU this season. Welcome to all the fans traveling from Boston to root for the Huskies.

As far as tonight's game, Beaudry is a beast and should keep the Friars in contention to steal games all year. The Friar scoring punch.... not so much a punch as it is slap. PC is "returning 9 of it's 10 top scorers" but that like arguing over who is the tallest midget.

My 2 cents PC 2 NU 1. Yes, it is a homer prediction. :p
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

if beaudry is on with our new lines, this could be very difficult. i have faith in our offensive talent though, they'll get the job done.

NU 3 PC 1
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

Realizing it is the opening game of the RS, and anything can happen, I think it's a 'trap game' already for NU. Hopefully not necessarily from a player's or coaches standpoint. Let's not fool ourselves, we are all looking forward to tomorrow night at home vs BC. My hope is that NU remembers that tonite is not an exhibition game against a team that isn't supposed to be that good. If the game was at NU, I wouldn't be as concerned.

If NU doesn't come to play (focusing too much on tomorrow night) - PC 3 - NU 2.
If NU comes to play - NU 4 - PC 1.

No. Tee hee.

I don't think I'm going tonight which increases PC's chances exponentially.

I dont think it will really be a "trap game". Honestly, NU doesnt have a right to say that they should walk in and come out with a win everytime they play PC. Nothing has been proven yet. I am glad to see that we are playing an easy opponent on the road first though. I think it will be great for the freshmen to get a game in before having to walk into Matthews for a BC-NU home opener.
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

PC 3
NU 2
Final.
A good way to begin the season.
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

Congratulations Jon. Was debating if that should have been a thread in itself or not. I really think PC has a decent shot at 5th.

PC looked decent tonight...Derek Army had a good game.

It was a decent game tonight by both squads but the refs were not letting them play with tons of interferences and all around borderline calls. One ref called a hitting from behind in the middle of the ice that a Northeastern player slid into the boards.

Cronin all night was able to get away with "late" changes and eventually led to Army picking up a bench minor. The next stoppage again Cronin had a late change and finally got called for a Delay of Game.
 
Re: NU visits PC: Hope springs eternal

We looked awful in the 2nd and most of the third. we are going to get our doors blown off tomorrow. cant wait. oy.
