    Well, that and SJ is going to hire DeBoer after numerous names were floated as their options. Don't think anything with SJ and Quinn happened beyond a feller phone call. Terrible job to take right now in SJ.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      It's not everything. How much was Parker pulling in his final years?

        I watched Greenway in the U18 Tourney and was not impressed. Even the Scouts were saying his draft status was dropping.

            Saw on Twitter that former Terrier John Hynes may be named head coach of the NJ Devils. That's pretty cool. Lots of former Terriers in the pro/college/prep school ranks.

              Not a surprise to hear of his stock dropping. Just based on numbers, it seemed like this past year may not have been as prolific as he may have hoped. That said, development of big players seems to sometimes stall, perhaps as they adjust to their own growth. Hopefully, he also worked on other facets of his game. Either way, I'm glad he is coming to BU.

                Jimmy Hayes stalled for a bit as a tweener (age based) on a few teams the season before arriving at BC. He did alright.

                The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

                  Despite dropping from #22 in the Central Scouting midterms to #47 in the final ranking, Greenway earned an invite to this week's NHL Combine in Buffalo. Eichel, Greer and JFK also invited, among the 25 NCAA connected skaters. After a relatively strong U17 year, Greenway was slowed by an injury early this season and, when he returned, his points came primarily on assists. OK numbers (9-35-44 in 53 games), but there had been lofty expectations. Quinn reportedly believes Greenway has a big upside and, with Greer, Olsson and Phelps returning on the left side, there shouldn't be pressure on Greenway to provide instant impact. Should be interesting to see if Quinn, O'Connell, Greeley and Young can help him regain top prospect status.

                    Speaking of Greer, he certainly elevated his play in the postseason. I'm really excited to see him further elevate his play in 2015-16.

                    If Greenway shows continued improvement in his game as the season progresses, I think he could be a real good one for BU going forward.

                      Good news: John Hynes named Devils head coach.

                      Sad news: Two-time All-American and Hall of Fame center on the '60s Pinball Line Herb Wakabayashi passed away today.

                        Oh, that's so sad. Never met the guy or saw him play but always loved his name.

                        Rogie - small question on your blog, and this could be incorrect on my part, but I notice all over. Your headline on John Hynes calls him an ex-Terrier. I just think that sounds negative. Can't you just call him a Terrier? He is one. He didn't quit or get traded. Maybe former Terrier? What do you all think the proper term should be for a player that graduated? Or rather, just played? And this isn't just calling you out. All college players, once they leave, are referred to in different ways.

                          How about their class year?

                          Jack Eichel '18 was taken 2nd in the NHL draft tonight.

                          Herb Wakabayashi '66 passed away today.

                          John Hynes '94 was named HC of the NJD today.

                            I like former Terrier. So, should we reserving using ex-Terrier for those that finished their collegiate careers at a different school? Or should be be nice and also call them former Terriers?

                              To hard to get the class correct (Herb was a member of the class of 1969).

                                I agree, Sean. Cannot use "ex" and "former" interchangeably. Thanks for making the point, Scarlet. Hynes headline now corrected.

                                Re Wakabayashi: I hold Herb responsible for igniting my nearly five-decade addiction to BU hockey. I can still remember the first game I saw at Boston Arena (now Matthews) and being mesmerized watching Herb--all of five foot five--throwing the puck around with his Pinball Line mates, Mickey Gray and Serge Boily (and sometimes the equally tiny Eddie Wright).
