Providence College 2025-26 Official Season-Long Thread

When notable, unbiased hockey guys say that the refs made the wrong call, you know how bad the officiating is. Between the massive amount of excess calls last weekend, killing the pace of games besides those involving PC, it's time to stop protecting subpar officiating that impacts just about every game. They're getting as bad as pro leagues where umps and refs overshadow the actual games. Like the transfer portal, I'd love a system where officials can be swapped with other conferences. I'm not saying any one team deserves to experience the brutality of Hockey East officiated games, but it's a solution since they seem so highly protected.

loved the comeback tonigh, PC dominated play in 2 nd and 3rd I thought. Liked not worrying at the end of the game . The McQueen breakout has begun!

And it's not just him getting better each game, but elevating the play of his linemates too. Comparing him to Connelly of last year just isn't fair. One guy needed the puck on his stick often while the other is constantly aware of where his teammates are to pass off to them when the shot isn't there.
 
Right on the mark PK. I think we will see the continuous improvement coach Leaman has mentioned several times and hopefully some 6 point weekends to bolster confidence and league standings. There is good skill up and down the lineup. Would like the grit shown Saturday and better shot selection to provide a less stressful fan experience too. McQueen’s deke and quick wrister to score goal #2 was a really high skill level move and quickly following that up with another to set up Jelsma’s goal #3 sealed the win. Losing yesterday would have hurt a lot, so it was a gutsy determined performance and getting 4 of 6 points feels especially good.
