Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

Shame there was no acknowledgement of Erin Kickham's first collegiate goal in there.
 
Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

Top Performers being -4 for the weekend?! Time to raise the bar. Not just goals & assists.
 
Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

There's a "noteworthy" section too. A senior scoring her first career goal and points is noteworthy IMO.
These awards/notes are likely compiled from the releases of each team. The final goal in a 9-1 win gets lost amidst talk of three-point or two-goal games by others. It's more likely to get caught when the goal itself had game impact, such as a winning goal or a lasting-lead goal. Anyway, congrats to Erin! :)

Right, in general, but it was noticed this time in that Erin was named first star of the game. Seems like something got lost in communication up to Hockey East, is all. It's a shame but not a big deal. On the BC highlight video you can see her fantastic cellie followed by the world's biggest bear hug from Emily Pfalzer :-)
 
Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

Selfishly I thought making 55 saves on 59 shots including a team season high 34 save game, garnering 2 wins in your first 2 D1 starts over the weekend may have been noteworthy.........:D

And Kick's reaction was a beauty for sure!

Absolutely, I didn't mean any slight to Taylor by picking Erin out as a noteworthy omission (and I gave her a nod in my poll votes this week!). She was absolutely solid in the periods I saw (first at NU, last two at BC) and that great glove save was a deserved inclusion in the BC highlight reel too. It's been a highlight of the year to see some players who'd taken a back seat getting a chance to shine. Meghan Grieves' two goals at Providence were another fantastic example.
 
Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

Oh man, goaliedad, Whyte can confirm -- I was singing Blake's praises all weekend. She looked GREAT in net.
 
Re: This Week In Hockey East - Volume III: A Return to Order or More Chaos?

Could someone cover for me and put up this week's matchups? I have a meeting that is going to last until like 1 and then will be playing catchup all afternoon...
