      Wasn't this team regarded as having a lot of depth? The lineup on collegehockeystats gives me that distinct impression. Are key, healthy players underachieving?

        I think this team has a large talent gap. Some really top notch players and than some not so great players. Not too many players falling in between. But yes, even without the players that are injured, I think the team can do a lot better than they have been so to that extent, there is definitely some underachieving. The D corps seems to have take a major step back despite losing only one player (albeit an Olympian).

        But to the team's credit, I don't think any of their losses have been to bad teams. They have two losses to Cornell and Wisconsin which I think is fine. We would've been hard pressed to grab one win with a healthy line up against those two. A loss each to BC, PC and North Dakota. All very good teams. My only gripe is losing two to Northeastern. I think we should've been able to pull out at least one win. But yea.., NU has a ridiculous goalie and very good depth. What can you do.

        Just hope the team is able to get healthy over the break. Start finalizing lines and blaze through the second half.

          NU stepped on the gas to start and just outplayed bu. There were a few stretches bu was showing some life but there wasn't much doubt. The PK for NU has been awesome.

          TTT must be loving this right now with bu 1-5 in there last 6.

              That would be an understatement. Wouldn't be surprised if some of them were skating sick last night though, as the "bug" seems to be going around.

                Must have never played the Game? Playing sick or have a Bug ?? poor excuse ( 2 losses in 7 days?)

                Most Athletes will excel when under the weather .. they have a tendency to over compensate there play
                because they know that they are not feeling well..

                It just gets tough when a team rely on just one strong player to carry the team ? You have to coach and
                improve all your players from start to finish and then other players can learn to step up..

                  yeah, ok pal....I'm sure there are plenty of athletes that "excel" when they are running a temp, are congested, and hurling. What a moron.

                    "h3ll hath no fury like a woman scorned" appeared to be a factor in 5 of the 6 NU goals!! You go, girl
