    I thought it was a brutal hockey game, one of the worst I have watched all year...

    combined 0/9 on pp, mc had 6 and bc had 1 shot in 3rd.

      That's just brilliant.

      The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

        The OT wins @BU and @NEU were much more inspiring in my opinion. There was a resilience to their play that allowed them to come back in the third and and in OT. We saw some of that Sunday, but they put themselves in the position to lose by playing lazy D and not dominating the PP.

              Another future Merrimack player was also traded during a fire-sale by his BCHL team as the Grizzlies traded Wade Murphy to Penticton. Penticton currently is the #1 team in Canada and is a on 21 game win streak, and has 14 currently committed players already (including their captain Logan Johnston to UMass Lowell).

                Can only guess he asked for it... Team has been a train wreck after old MC coach left... Surprised to see a MN kid go to that league, would have thought he would have stayed in BCHL. they got nothing back for him and looks like team threw towel in

                Solid team, inferior league. Other kids from BCHL went to that league as well. Local kid Mike Moran, who is having a very good year went to same league, same division...

                Victoria, which traded Murphy has had ownership off ice leagal issues(to do with real estate development/money) and team has been inconsistant

                  Hope he shows up but will be shocked if so.

                      Not sure that I would call the AJHL an "inferior league". Teams from AJHL have beat teams from BCHL, ask Barton, Stollery, and Todd. Also other Warriors like Madsen, Sheen, Bates, and Jardine might disagree. On the other hand, Bigos, Heywood, Ellis, Gould, Collins, Singleton , and Myers would probably say the BCHL is much better hockey. In any event, Merrimack has done well recruiting from both the AJHL and the BCHL.

                          not inferior in a bad way, inferior vs BCHL, similar to ushl vs nahl

                          bchl far deeper and more placements

                            Most neutral observers would say BCHL > AJHL. Just the way it is.

I can't imagine him ever making anyone even feel uncomfortable when he's sober.There are plenty of players in my time covering the team who have looked at me differently or flirted with me or the like. 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.

                                the third period was inexplicable. BC i thought played ok for first 2 periods other than not being able to bury it. it was 2-1 but should have been 4-1 anyway
