  • Jack Parker To Announce Retirement Monday, Really.

    Deserves its own thread, per ESPN's John Buccigross, Parker will announce his retirement tomorrow (Monday).
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

      Marsh last year, Parker this year... York next year? Shame to see those who have been legendary coaches hanging it up, obviously we all know these days will come, but it never makes it easy when it actually does.

          Best wishes, coach. You've earned the respect you have.

            As a BU fan, very bittersweet. Parker has been the face of BU Hockey for over four decades. Unfortunately, he stayed on far too long which lowered his overall career reputation. It is for the best of the program that he is leaving.

              Here's hoping for a happy retirement to a man that's **** well earned it.

                Eventually, we knew it had to happen.

                The non-conference games have been great. All the best to you, Coach Parker.

                  Unlike JackPa, York is still at the top of his game and showing no signs of slipping, so why would he even consider retiring?

                    Wow, I thought he'd hang on and try and at least catch Ron Mason (if not fruitlessly try and catch York)

                      Well this is terrible news (unless they're announcing that either Bavis or Powers is taking over).

                          Marsh was still a **** good coach, then health issues got in the way of him being able to stay committed.

                          At the age these guys are, health issues can pop up at any time. Hopefully York can continue to coach for numerous more years. My original statement was by no means a prediction, but rather a passing thought that are these 3, 5, 7 years going to be a changing of the guard from the old timers to the young blood.

                            I fully endorse Cahoon, Powers, and Bavis as candidates or this job!

                              Jack is a true legend, and as someone who covered the team in some capacity for three years, I was very lucky to have sat down and talked with him numerous times. No matter what happened in recent years, this is a man who loves hockey, loves his school and always showed me respect and appreciation. I'll always admire what he has given to the BU hockey community, and the American hockey community.
