PC Hockey - On the road back

Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

Still haven't recieved my season tickets even though we got a confirmation that they were sent like a week ago. Might try and call the ticket office if I do decide to go tonight.

On a side note, isn't the owner of the baseball tavern a Rooney? Or is it a different Rooney?

It's a Rooney. Or at least he was the owner was when I was introduced.

I had the same ticket issue last season and they were great about it. Please call the ticket office right away and they can print out the full season and you can get them either tonight or they can mail them to you and/or they will hold them for you until the Maine series.
 
Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

So with optimisim high and rose colored glasses on, I purchased the All Access package so I can watch Mike Logan and the Friars webcast. Video quality is good and the team is up 1-0 on Jankowski's first period goal. Let's go Friars!
 
Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

Video came back in time to watch the third. While it worked, it was a fun way to wtch the Friars from afar. I really do miss the regular visits to Schneider.

Impressive start by the Friars tonight. Looking forward to the tangle with BU tomorrow night.

^^ agreed...and they weren't bad. Should be a good season and I'm glad things finally came together for my senior year.

I think it is a statement at how good the freshmen are...McParland was very good tonight and he didn't even score...this team is big and should be able to compete if the defense can play better...didn't think they were crisp tonight
 
A few thoughts:

1. Very solid win even knowing you were playing one of the weakest D1 teams. Gave you a chance to iron out the kinks.
2. Obviously Sacred Heart was not much of an offensive threat and we will need to find out more when he is really pressured, but Gillies looked fundamentally strong, kicking rebounds out of the way and generally keeping the crease area under control. He also appears to be very quick with the glove.
3. I thought the defense was solid....they were never hemmed in by SHU in their own end. They transitioned the puck well and got the puck to our forwards down low for good shots. I did not think they tried to really to score with shots on goal
4. Thought Gilmour fit right in....did not look out of place on D and offensively had a couple assists and did put the puck on net.
5. Hopefully Harvey did not return after going down was a product of the score and being careful......right now that is the area with the least experienced depth.
6. Saracino was out due to injury and he should add more to the offense when he returns
7. Best line was Mauerman/Demo/Luke which was the one line that had played together most of the 2nd half of last year.
8. The Schaller/Janko/Army line looked a little disjointed.....quite possibly they were trying to make it Jankowski's night. Also all 3 guys are centers and maybe there is an adjustment period.
9. On the other hand Jankowski's is the sniper we have been looking for. Needs to continue to bulk up a bit, but he seemed to loom where the puck ended up.
10. I was impressed with Noel Acciari...pity he had to sit out last year, he too would have added a demension to our offense. He is a bull and clearly loves to mix it up.......he will be the guy in this class who in the end who has the best 4 year career.
11. Adding DeJersey and McPharland you have a couple more guys who know the purpose of this game is to score...another factor that has been missing the last 10 years.
12. Was surprised Kevin Rooney was in the lineup however he looked right in place on the 4th line. While he got no points you knew he was around. Also has nice size.
13. Speaking of which by and large we had pretty good size in the lineup which seems to be a nice change in direction.
14. Beside Rooney the only other forward without a point was Schaller
 
Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

Most impressive thing about Acciari was him booting Murphy out of a defensive draw at the end of the second period with like two seconds left!
 
Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

Looking forward to this one. This will be a good test for both teams. I expect both goalies see a lot of rubber. Hopefully the zebras keep out of the way and let the boys play.

You know PC will get a five minute major within the first three minutes of the game! BU is a house of horrors for them

Say hi to Jack and Mr. C for me tonight and give Shy Terrier a hug and a kiss. Sorry I won't be making the trek. It's our only weekend off between now and the Frozen Four I think. ;)
 
Re: PC Hockey - On the road back

Can I just say how stupid BU's alcohol serving policy is? I'm 21 and they wouldn't serve me a beer because I'm from Maine and not 25.
