  • Re: BU 2017 Season Thread III: Terriers falling (into the off season)

    Signs don't look good for a win after the best start they have had in weeks. Stupid turnover by McAvoy with 20 seconds left in the period then 3 BU skaters standing still. Got to play all 20. Don't want to feed the trolls but that play was so unacceptable and unnecessary. UMD going to grind BU into oblivion now I have a feeling

          Another second period taken off . . .

          Though not as badly as some recent games.

            disagree

            he tried to create an opportunity. as a team it is the responsibility of a fwd to cycle back and cover. on top of that jake got too far out away from the post.

            unfortunate, but there were a lot of pieces there. and the duluth guy had a good goal.

            when bu scores are they all mistakes by the opponent? or good plays?
            a legend and an out of work bum look a lot alike, daddy.

              For the first 10 minutes they looked like a legit tournament team but JFK and Greenway couldn't bury the opportunities and now this

                Yeah, I think jake got his stick stuck in the net, from the outside on the far side and didn't drop it quickly enough to get back over. I think JFK should have four goals in this game so far.

                  That point of the period get the puck deep and close out with the lead and yes Jake looked slow on that one

                    Well they're dead tired, Duluth is much older, stronger, more physical. I hope our guys will stick around and develop and we can say the same about BU in the next few years.

                      Hard to argue for that when you see a guy you beat last night score his first NHL goal today.

                        Only one who is a legit NHL talent is Keller the rest of the underclassman need at least another year but don't bet on it

                          He has the talent, but he absolutely is not ready for the NHL. Too many mistakes, bad decisions, and weak plays. His body is the primary cause of those faults. He just isn't strong or experienced enough for the NHL yet.

                          The last PK is a great example. He made the smart play to bring the puck back into the zone to kill time, but then brought it behind the net and tried to shoot it around to clear it, didn't get enough on it, and essentially set it up in the zone for Duluth. We'd be furious with him right now if not for Duluth having too many men on the ice.

                            Keep a good thought for the third . . .

                              But he will be backed up by NHL talent even on Coyotes so more room for error. Look how Gaudreau jumped right in but he was older.
