Originally posted by ericredaxe View PostApart from traditionally we have never had them, what is inherently bad about having the cheerleading or dance teams at the hockey games?
Northeastern had them for years (do they still?). They might as well as have done their cheering routines in the Matthews' lobby.
It would be nice if the students started providing the atmosphere as they once did, instead of wearing hockey sweaters at a band sing-along.

A lot of chatter on the Bruins - Lightning telecast about Quinn being a leading candidate for all of the opening NHL head coaching jobs.
Is it real, or just broadcasters' chatter?
We used to hear that with Parker, and he turned down the NHL at least four times (Bruins twice, Whalers and Kings). Denver's Jim Montgomery explored openings last year, turned down the Panthers, and remained with the Pioneers.
I don't see Quinn going. Not this year, anyway.
Anyone else???

Quinn’s decision is whether he wants to have a fairly cushy job until he retires making $400K-$500K (my guess) or does he want to make better money for 3-5 years until he is fired and then toils as an NHL assistant for the last 10-15 years of his career. Parker didn’t take NHL job because he knew he would eventually be fired. The question is how big is Quinn’s ego? If you know the answer to that then you have your answer on whether he will leave.
I for one for the past few season have said of Quinn, great recruiter, not a great coach. He seemed to have righted the ship with style of play until the Michigan game when team reverted to turnovers, odd man rushes, etc. That said, team has made four straight NCAAs which is fine in my book. As a fan, I only want my team to have a chance.

No Eichel or Keller on the world championship roster? That is pretty disappointing. No Shattenkirk either, but I am not sure about his injury status at this point.

Given Eichel's injury issues over the past 2 seasons, absolutely no shame in declining his invite, IMHO. Also, for the same reason, I'm sure the Sabres would REALLY not want him to go. With Dahlin joining the team next season, they will be pushing the excitement factor big time, and they would not want to risk Eichel not being a part of that.BU Hockey: The trophy case is once again growing
