    Pulled from the Recruit Thread. 3 outta 4 ain't bad...

    Kieffer Bellows, LW, 6-0/195, Edina, Minn. (Boston University) - He's not the fastest player, but he keeps up and he knows where to go to find the puck to get off shots. He also has a quick and strong stick that allows him to get shots off in traffic. His release is incredibly quick and he has a heavy shot. He scored twice by driving the net and letting line mate and fellow BU recruit Clayton Keller find him. He took a slap shot in the third period that went high and wide, but it took off so fast from his stick, it was hard to believe.

    Clayton Keller, LC, 5-10/168, Swansea, Ill. (Boston University) - He's a smooth skater with incredible vision and soft hands that allow him to be such a terrific set up guy. On all three goals Keller assisted on, he smoothly carried the puck deep into the zone before dishing it out front or out to the point. He doesn't possess blazing speed, but he's quick and agile. He has an active stick and caused a couple of turnovers by playing pesky. His offensive creativity and special hands let him create time and space to distribute the puck. He made a couple of real nice touch, saucer passes.

    Chad Krys, RD, 5-11/184, Ridgefield, Conn. (Boston University) - His skating ability and mobility allow him to cover a ton of space in the defensive zone. A left shot, He has a good active stick and did a good job most of the time in his own zone Friday. He did a good job of getting in shooting and passing lanes. There were a couple of spots where he got beat or was caught in no-man's land, but that's to be expected for a 17 year-old kid out against a premier college program. He has good footwork and is so nimble carrying the puck up ice.

    Jake Oettinger, 6-4/201, Lakeville, Minn. (Boston University) - He made 41 saves on 45 shots and did most of it look effortless. He's a big goaltender that covers a lot of net. He's a hybrid butterfly goalie who makes quick lateral movement in the crease. He's graceful and smooth in front of his cage. He challenges shooters and covers up rebounds quickly. A late '98, he's not eligible for the 2016 NHL Draft.
    Oettinger and Keller have been outstanding...the clear MVP's of this team...Krys has really picked up his game after a rough start...Bellows...ugh

              So who should we try to hire to replace the fired coaching staff this offseason? Will it be another BU guy or would it be better to go with a fresh start and a new direction?

                    We know you are sad that good players don't want to play at BC anymore but you don't need to come here with your tears.

                          He's been thinking that for over a year now.

                            Yes. He can recruit and he can develop individual players but for anyone who has watched this team on a regular basis over the past couple years, it has become abundantly clear that he can't coach a team. Why should we be stuck with a guy who can't coach a team. Just because he recruits good players? The worst part about it is his quotes and post-game comments show how totally and completely clueless the guy is. He's literally a moron when it comes to being a head coach. He would be a great assistant coach. Hopefully he will settle for a demotion.

                              He won't be fired but his NHL country club needs to go bye bye..time to start playing players who produce and are going to work hard...embarrassing
