How many shots close in where they completely missed the net ?
If they make the final Saturday that should be the end of their season. This team just doesn’t have what it takes this year but give them credit for winning 1st place and making it respectable with 20 wins.

Re: Boston College Eagles 2017-2108 Season Thread
If nothing else, BC needs a better showing at TD Garden than the last time they saw the place. I think that weighs on them, as does the likelihood that they will probably go no further this year without winning Friday.Chris V

Originally posted by BCeagle View PostI don’t know if they played hard every shift because in some games and periods they looked like they took it off. Look at the losses or some of the losses where they looked awful. The out of conference games particularly hurt and no wins except a tie. The UConn game was painful to watch in Hartford for the most part and other games I watched or listened to on the radio. Too inconsistent this season. Hopefully with more talent next season BC will look more like a BC team we expect to see under York.

Re: Boston College Eagles 2017-2108 Season Thread
I don't even know what BUs A game is. Have they showed it at all this year? They have more top talent but it is possible that collectively BC is still a better team. BU has the potential for more game changers though, we'll see how the game unfolds.
Woll has absolutely been tremendous lately. The goalie we thought we were getting all along.

Originally posted by sterlippo1 View Postagree, but if both of these teams bring their A games, we are going home. Woll hot at the right time, so there's that.
Hopefully Finkelstein and Samuelsson will upgrade the defense next year while the new forwards improve our lines.NCAA Champs 2012, 2010, 2008, 2001, 1949, Hockey East Tourney Champs 2012 #11, Beanpot Champs 2016

But the time the HE semis roll around, these games become fascinating. It's more than just hockey ability. Teams are going to do some good and bad things and it becomes very much a game of mental toughness. The other team scored a goal, will you get rattled and let them score a few more or will you answer back? You made a bad play, can you shake it off and get back on your game for the next shift? It's basically an NCAA game right here on Friday - it's round 1 for BC and BU and instead of 4 rounds it's a 6 round tournament.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The 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.

Re: Boston College Eagles 2017-2108 Season Thread
Courtesy of HE, some interesting notes:
No. 1 Boston College (20-13-4, 18-6-0 HEA) advances to the semifinals for the third straight year after claiming its 16th Hockey East regular season title. No. 4 Boston University (19-13-4, 12-8-4 HEA) advances to the TD Garden for the fourth consecutive season, winning its 12th straight quarterfinal game to do so. It is the second year in a row that the Eagles and Terriers will meet in the Hockey East semifinals. In 2017, the Eagles topped the Terriers, 3-2, to advance to their league-record 17th appearance in the championship contest. Both programs are skating in the Hockey East semifinals for the 24th time, the most of any school in league tournament history. All-time in postseason play, Boston University owns a 9-4 record over Boston College in 10 previous series, including a 3-2 mark in the semifinals. Between the Eagles (11) and Terriers (9), the two programs have claimed 20 of the previous 33 Hockey East Tournament titles. During the regular season, the teams split a pair of Hockey East games, 1-1-0.
but having a brain cramp with this:
