    I believe Allen, Peterson, Dziama were also in attendance.

    Nice representation for the Class of '01. Was surprised to see Cam Atkinson and Ben Smith there.

Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

The only thing they've made that I really liked was the felt banner they made after '10 with the four banners on it.

        Having lost more than a few NC games over the year, whenever I hit USCHO and see the "BC NATIONAL CHAMPIONS" merchandise banner, I remember how much that stung to see all summer .. "WISCONSIN, 2006 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS..." ugh.

        Speaking of ugly, they should retire those mustard colored jerseys while they have perfect winning record in them. I will not be buying one of throwbacks when the bookstore comes out with them.

        Hard to believe it's been 1 week already. A lot happened, flew down early in the morning to catch 2 games, then Saturday, and players already signed to contracts after that game. Good luck to all the seniors and juniors who left. I will be at the dinner on Sunday. It should be a good time.

                    They're not going away, the players love them and most of the fans love them.

                      But you like the new ones with the squigglies and bizarro stripes all over them?

                      You have bad taste. No offense.

                      The golds are beautiful. They are hopefully here to stay until someone wakes up and gets us the jersey with the eagle on the front from the early/mid-90s. If that happens, I say use that eagle jersey for the homes and make golds a Frozen Four-only special jersey (if BC is the home team in those games) and let the kids use it as motivation to get there to break them out.

                      I think the sales for this gold jersey are going to be greater than the bookstore expects and will eclipse anything these new UA jerseys did for sales if they keep wearing the golds on the ice.

                      I just ordered one myself.

                        No offense taken, you're entitled to your opinion.

                        Well it's a matter of taste, not that I have bad taste. Most people I run into have the same opinion whether they're BC fans or fans from other schools. Usually they ask me, "What are those????" I'm sorry, that is not gold color, that looks more like mustard color. The lack of depth with the single color numbers and single color letters are not that great looking. I'm in agreement with the eagle design jersey as 3rd jersey as I have a bunch of those from a athletic sale at BC one year. They must be the ones and everywhere I go people always compliment my jerseys with the Eagle from the 80s and early 90s.

                        They can save those for the FF if they like or NCAA tournament games if they continue to bring luck but I don't have to like those or that style from the 50s or early 60s. They're just plain ugly as sin.

                            I like the tan jersey as well and am waiting to see them for sale somewhere so I can get a couple. The maroon and the white are OK, but the tan look great. Also considering getting a Fighting Sioux jersey just to p.o. the politically correct crowd/police of the NCAA. Jerks.

                              I've asked this question before, but what school out there "correctly" uses gold in their uniforms? It's not exactly the easiest color to replicate and I have a feeling if the uniforms were truly "gold", there'd still be a lot of people with complaints.

                              You'd think the bigger complaints would have been with the pre-2000-2001 uniforms. Now, those were "mustard" colored helmets. When someone says mustard, I think yellow...not the color of BCs golds uniforms. If I had to choose between the current golds and the current whites...give me the golds any day of the week.

                                Definitely. I got a kick out of one of the websites selling jerseys (either BC Bkstr or bceagles.com) and you can choose jersey color and it says "cardinal"... *facepalm* Might as well just put "RBK Red" in there.
