Old news, but a little more background on Johnny DeRoche. He's from my hometown. Seen him play a few times. He's one of those skilled players who has terrific hockey smarts and puts himself in right place to score goals.

Less than 2 hours until game time in Hamilton. Colgate is struggling a little early on but that is no reason to look past them. The Bobcats will need to come out with poise and control. Gartieg will likely see more rubber tonight than he has in a couple of games so he'll need to be on his game. Offensively, they just need to finish their chances.

Go Q!

and HD too! Great quality, the announcers are not homers, and they're very well prepared too.

Great job Q! Total domination and 5 goals in the 3rd! Anas is filthy (in case you hadn't heard), Danny Federico got his first goal, and Connor Jones got his 100th career point!

Gartieg only faced 12 shots... I still think he'll be better when he sees more rubber. His first goal was soft; didn't see the 2nd one. Was never really tested. The 'gate announcers said they only had 1 shot attempt on 8 PP opportunities, a testament to the stifling Q defense.

A good showing and a nice tuneup for the Big Red tomorrow.

Very good road win. 7 goals and they are still missing Peter Quenneville due to injury (Brooks Robinson played again). Peca still has not scored yet but he will come around. Once Quenneville is healthy would like to keep Anas with the Jones twins as they are really clicking right now. Peca playing with Quenneville will be good. Defense was very good as well. Special teams was very good again with 2 power play goals and a shorty and they killed off all 8 of the Colgate power plays. Defensive play looks as good as last year just with some younger players that are probably more talented than what we lost. All in all a good win and would love a sweep of the weekend with a win tomorrow night at Cornell.

Great win tonight and a big game tomorrow at Cornell. The Freshman look great so far, especially Anas, and are mixing well with the upperclassmen. Only concern for me so far is as much as their PK and D has been great they seem to take a TON of penalties on certain nights.

Random question for anyone here who might know but any word on possible TV coverage for any games this year? Yale/QU at the Bank is next weekend and I haven't heard anything about anyone picking it up. It seems like the past 4 years its at least been on regional networks like NESN or CSNNE and last year of course nationally by NBC Sports.

Welcome to the jungle!

I have not seen or heard of any TV coverage for this season. If there was, it should have been announced by now. I guess there's always a chance someone could pick up a game but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Announcers being well-prepared should not be a feather in their cap. But, that's just me. (And yes, I'm a snob when it comes to that stuff).

They were fair and mostly unbiased, plus they got all the names right and knew many stats. The only thing that bugged me was their use of "Q-Cats" a little too often.

But, that's just me. (And yes, I'm a snob when it comes to that stuff).

We know!

I've got a few friends on the insides of some networks, and there will be some Quinnipiac hockey on TV this season. I'm a little surprised the games haven't yet been announced, but I'd guess they'll be out soon. I was told that the NBC Sports Network wasn't too kind in what it was demanding for coverage (in terms of money) so I don't think we'll have any games there. NESN and SNY will be involved, I think.

Gotta like the offense and special teams so far this season. Like I posted before, this is all happening without Matthew Peca putting up any numbers yet. If (when) he starts getting involved, look out. The game at Cornell will be a great early-season test -- there must still be some bad blood between those teams after the absurd series they had in last year's quarterfinals.

Larson: You'd probably have to play 570 Brad Paisley songs to be able to afford that Yale package. We need to get a preferred alumni ticket presale next year. (Attn: Fred and others.)

November's gonna be a lot of fun at the Bank.

Re: 2013-14 Quinnipiac Bobcats: New season, new scoreboards, new chance at redemption

Don't want to get too ahead of myself here but this team has a lot of upside for the long run. Big one tonight as we all know Iles is going to show up like he does every game against us.
I don't mean to compare too much to last year but at this point in the season compared to this point last season, this year's team has been better.
The defense hasn't skipped much of a beat and the offense if far better. The scary thing for the other teams in the country is this team has so much youth instead of last year having so many veterans. This team will only get better as they are so young, Peca hasn't gotten hot and Quennvilles been hurt. Garteig will keep improving and this team has no ceiling at this point. As long as they stay focused on the game at hand every week, they will continue their success. Where that takes us....that's the exciting part.
Looking forward to a hard fought battle tonight. Go Bobcats!

Re: 2013-14 Quinnipiac Bobcats: New season, new scoreboards, new chance at redemption

Tonight will probably be our first real test. Cornell is scoring bunches on the PP so we'll need to stay out of the box, and you know the Big Red will be looking to avenge that semi-final series loss back in March. Staying focused is key.

Go Q!
