      LOL you all were harping on that OT hook (and the penalties in last year's QF games) for months after that game as the reason you lost and how Hockey East is fixed. There were about three posts on the interference call, all of which stated that BU's horrible penalty kill and the other two correct but awful penalties we took as the main reasons we lost.

          Those are 1950s throwbacks, not practice jerseys. I like the red version but not the white. Don't know why we don't go with the candy canes or even the regular ones there. We haven't worn the regular jersey once this year, 100% candy cane or throwback.

            I wish they hadn't worn those, tbh. I love the red version of them. Very striking. The home/white version is pretty bland. Not to mention, they don't have the best record while wearing them. /superstition girl It is now the "special occasion" (my term) jersey. I think it would have been cool for them to wear the red with you guys wearing the black.

              Ha, jinx!

              Also, it would appear that the white candy canes are our new regular jerseys. I do not understand why that is and I feel if one would ask Coach Quinn about it, he wouldn't care to answer, not thinking it's anything to be concerned or talk about. That could be me, though.

                I STILL prefer the sweaters they wore when I was in school - “BOSTON” with the terrier (and not the number) underneath it. I don’t understand why we need numbers on the front AND back when almost everyone else has a logo or mascot on the front. I get it that for awhile the rules changed and mandated “block lettering” and all that but obviously that is no longer the case. And don’t crucify me but I also liked the BC sweaters with the huge eagle on the front.

                    I think the white's are super clean and sharp. I love 'em. Especially paired with the striped socks. #UniWatch

                    While we're talking jersey's, why in the name of everything sacred is there black in the USA hockey sweaters!!!?? Red, white, and blue with the big block USA, going diagonally across the front. Thank you.

                      Technically, I think it came up because one of your posters cited the Globe article, which referred to it as a "controversial" Beanpot.

                        In regards to recruiting a remark Toot Cahoon made the other night stands out
                        He said with BU & BC it comes down to selecting properly more than recruiting
                        Plenty of options to choose from

                        On another note thought Greenway was excellent today
                        Had thought the big surface would be a negative but he was a factor throughout

                            I like the throwbacks (both red and white) but do think they are wearing them a bit much. Didn't realize we have not worn the regulars once this year. I would hate to see them go away for good.

                            I almost didn't even notice the black with the way it fades into the blue, but now that you mention it, it is an odd color choice.

                              Zero times this season, home or away. I too would hate them to go away.

                                Not a BU fan obviously, but I really liked the normal reds and whites BU has. Not a big fan of these throwbacks at all, especially the white ones. I'm sure there's throwback sentimental value for BU fans, but from an unbiased perspective, the red and whites with BOSTON across the front are some of the best, most iconic looks in NCAA hockey, IMO
