in other news, i believe sterlippo brought up that it doesn't seem bc has been on tv as much compared to previous years. my father emailed bates about this topic and bates got back to him within a few hours, said they have already met with NESN to discuss. says there are some possibilities.

To clarify, I wasn't commenting on other teams, but more what we're used to seeing from a BC team. I don't feel the secondary scoring is as strong on this BC team compared to others. Now, that really might not mean anything at all in the grand scheme of things. We'll see. I do think there's a difference when you just look at a team's top three scorers and not whether all three of those guys play on the same line. You can see a more even distribution with say the top four scorers spread across two lines.

FWIW, QU's top 3 scorers are on the same line (Jone's brothers and Anas). I didn't check any other teams, but my guess is the results will be similar.

I'm going to post some FACTS and hopefully put this secondary scoring thing to rest. OR, at least help some folks sleep better at night.

From 12/6/13 through 2/14/14 (16 games played, 15-0-1)...
The G-A-H line has scored 35 goals... 6 of them game winning goals (4 ENG).
Secondary scoring........... 37 goals... 9 of them game winning goals (1 ENG).

Does that make anyone feel any better, or is there more that should be expected from this team?
FWIW, no worries on my end. This team works so hard that good things will, and do happen.

Remember this... last season BC had one super scoring line and ZERO secondary scoring. The super line was broken up, resulting in little primary scoring and still ZERO secondary scoring. I would suggest that this years Eagles would wipe the ice with last years team. JMO.

The UVM color guy was unreal

he "cant stand BC " and called the team "annoying" which made him sound like a 14 year old girl. What an asshat.............. A little hairy at the end there but we'll take it.

Last year's team was the worst one since prior to the 97-98 season. No joke.

I thought it was interesting that Demko tracked down the guy that gave Matheson a little hit after the final whistle.
The kid has grit. Will help keep his team focused for tomorrow night.

I change my weekend prediction to sweep. Handily.

You wanna pay 9.95 for equally bad commentating like other HE schools?

Game highlights with Demko going after #2 Michael Paliotta at the end of the game. It looks like #21 Mario Puskarich actually took Matheson down.
