So the real stuff starts tonight, sounds like BC is as healthy as they're going to be. Looking for a little revenge after last year's upset. UVM games have had the 2nd fewest goals of any team in HE so won't exactly be fascinating hockey.

the bu @ uml series is going to be a lot of fun

UML having home ice is huge for them. Would love to see them take BU out

solid win last night

apparently santaguida has gotten pulled in all 3 starts at conte? like last year, he gets lit up in game 1 and sneddon turns to another goalie.

apparently it got out that white is playing with broken ribs? lovely

it would be so HE to change mccoshen's game misconduct to a dq and suspend him for tonight

Good for Northeastern and Lowell. Hope for a repeat of all those scores tonight.

I thought that since the penalty happened with under 5 minutes left in the game, it carries over as a DQ for tonight irregardless of the 'misconduct' call.

Where did you hear broken ribs? White was sitting in my section last weekend when he was out. He said it was a shoulder, and that he was maybe for that Saturday, but if they won, he would likely sit.

Do you have a source to back up your thought?

Interestingly enough we flipped pair wise spots with providence and back Into 4th after last night. I get that in the end, which ever one of us goes further in the playoffs is what Is going to matter in the end but interesting that it's that close.

We look inconsistent tonight. McCoshen being out doesn't help.

Demko not to blame for either goal.

One Referee I've never seen before. Have the Brigantes as linesmen - not fond of them.

so this script is somewhat familiar. win game 1, goalie gets yanked, uvm wins game 2.

white has been held without a point in back to back games for only the 3rd time this year. bc is 6-6-3 when he doesn't have a point, 19-0-2 when he does. only one goal in last 5+ weeks

was wondering wtf that post was coming from?

something about this team letting shitty teams back into it

NU is incredibly hot, 18-1-2 in last 3 months. NESN intervenes and makes us the late game.

There looked to be an awful lot of empty seats tonight. Anyone know why? Is it part of the school's so-called nerdification? Or is it that BC fandom has been made so apathetic by the football and basketball disasters? Back in the day McHugh was usually jammed.

It was the last day of spring break which puts a damper on the student attendance. The HE home ice playoff games always end up with this problem.

HE playoff games are always atrocious attendance everywhere.

jerry has commented on this in the past but it seems like this program doesn't get any benefit from the week off. 4-5 in the HE quarterfinal round since it started with all games at home, this is the first time BC has made the garden in this format

Friday's games are on NBC sports for those outside NESN

I'm 95% sure they do. think the differentiator is that HE hosts this event and not the NCAA.

i remember several of these semis / finals falling on st patrick's day and it being a complete shitshow

Unless he Has two 50-save shutouts this weekend, he won't make the top 5, never mind top 3.

Just got my tickets at the Garden. Can't wait, this is a great tournament.

Slim crowd for PC - UML.

I don't like UML fans, or their style of play, but their band is the best in Hockey East.
