Thanks. HE website used to sell sweatshirts, seems they don't anymore. Mine from 2006 is getting pretty ratty as you can imagine.
Also...in 2006 BC crushed BU in Woosta as we all recall. Two teams from the same conference cannot meet in the first round. Personally, I really like when teams within a conf. get split up as much as possible. It gets tiring playing the same teams over and over again...
We shouldn’t have to beat bc for the nationals. Hell we can beat them anytime.
a legend and an out of work bum look a lot alike, daddy.

The BU-BC game in Worcester was the regional final, not the first round. BU crushed Nebraska-Omaha in the first game. Can’t remember who BC beat.
You know, I’ve been complaining EVERY HE Tournament about wanting the first game. I, as a fan, have had to deal with the first game going into OT on more than one occasion, with once having BU’s game starting at 10:45.
Yeah, I remember that. The first game was BC/UNH which went something like 3 OT. We were playing Vermont and the place was practically empty when the game started. BU was really never in it, emotionally or otherwise.

What a downer of a game that BU-UVM game was. Wasn't that the game where Bennet was literally facing our net as one of the UVM goals was scored? That game ended Peter MacArthur's bold prediction of winning a national title while he was there (he was one year early).
Nah, that was the year UND crushed BU and BC in Worcester. BC beat Miami in 2006.
Yeah, I knew it was another red and white team. That's how I knew BC was coming out of that region. They were the only team in the region that wasn't some combo of red and white.
So, Northeastern won the Beanpot, BU won Hockey East. The third team that made the NCAA's? Will Providence win the national championship??
These are the things that go through my head while anxiously awaiting the pairings show.....
ETA - one more thought (ok, who's kidding? There will be more!!) - the more I thought about it, the less it bothered me that the scenarios changed so that BU HAD to win to get in. I hate having to have the team rely on others to move on. If they won, they were in. And they did. Not sure if that was ever the case in the past. Good for them. I hope it helps them next weekend.
When is the last year that BU fans felt this good about the freshman class performance on a go forward basis (considering that the Eichel year was going to be a one and done). I was impressed with most all Freshman and except for Tzachuk most s/b here for the longer term. I think Amonte and Cockerill give them speed and skill combo that can be a difference maker. Maybe Crone too? Any thoughts from those of you that saw the team a lot this year.
