I find the numbers thing very interesting. I thought it was just me that felt that certain numbers make a player seem quicker/slicker/not sure how to describe it. But I feel like if you take a player who wears 7 and give them 6, they will look slower. Same with 8.
The difference in moves to and from 6 and 7 back up that feeling, though who knows why the players themselves actually change.

Excited to see the freshman tomorrow. My gut is telling me that Crone is flying under the radar. I think he will have similar point totals that Harper had last year. If Tkachuk is expected to be a top 5 pick next year, gotta think he will get 40 points and should get at least 25 out of Bowers. There has been a lot of talk about not as much high end talent but I think it is still there and hopefully there is more depth with Melanson and cross our fingers healthy Olsson.

I've never seen him play, but a while back I suggested that Crone might be 2nd line material, just based on his improvement in the USHL and the fact that he is an older freshman. If Bowers is as strong a two way center man as we hear, the coaches might be willing to pair him up with one or two other freshmen (Crone and Tkachuk?). That would let Quinn put out a line of Bobo with Greenway and Harper.
On defense, I wonder who sits this first game? The shoe ins (assuming no one is injured) are Hickey, Krys, and Fabbro. The Quinn has to pick three from: MacLeod, Farrance, Crotty, Kotkansalo, Diffley, and Switzer. I'm assuming the last two are going to sit, just based on last year. So then, who of MacLeod and the 3 freshmen sits? I think it will be Crotty for this game.
I'm excited for the game!

Also, it's finally GAMEDAY
Quinn talked up Crone at the summer fan gathering and on Inside BU Hockey #1, it sounded like he would join Bowers and Tkachuk on a line. Grand Forks Herald reporter Brad Schlossman (covers UND) frequently saw Crone at Fargo and thinks he'll be a very productive D1 player.
MacLeod is a lock for a regular spot, too. If I had to venture a guess for the third pairing, it would be Farrance with Diffley (experience) or Kotkansalo (muscle).
mookie may take a nap before firing up the computer to watch. watching chelsea & man city though now so not sure when it's going to be sleepy time.....
a legend and an out of work bum look a lot alike, daddy.
