  • Boston University 2011-2012 Part V: At least 6 more games, maybe 13... who's with us?

    BU has clinched a playoff spot and will play at least 2 QF games.
    If they play a full 3 game QF and reach the national championship they'll play 13 games the rest of the season.

    I know it's not a great thread title but I can't stand the other one so... here it is.

    UVM this weekend aaaaand, go!

    The version where I can spell...
    Let's go Terriers!

    It hasn't taken me long to realize, everybody here knows a lot more than me about college hockey...

                Everything we need to know about this team's future, in the next 48 hours. They should destroy Vermont, really. Anything less and I'm leaning towards the six... It's sad, but they either recover and move forward, or they don't. I don't see finding their game again in 4 games being an option.

                    Anything less than a sweep this weekend would be a disappointment. This team has played much better on the road all season and hope that trend continues.

                    Given the unfortunate and difficult circumstances surrounding the program right now, playing 2 on the road this weekend may not be a bad thing. I'm curious to see what happens in the home regular-season finale next Friday from the attendance and fan response standpoint.

                      This^. Playing 2 in Vermont when they can leave Boston and all the drama on campus from Thursday to Sunday is hopefully just what the team needs. A sweep is a must for the confidence moving forward to Northeastern next weekend which will be interesting to say the least.There are going to be plenty of storylines between all the stuff with BU and Vinny Sap's first game back at Agganis. I would bet the students will be there in full force for the home game but who knows with the rest of the crowd.

                        UVM is the worst Hockey East team I have seen in person since some of the bad Merrimack teams. Even last year's five win UML team was better. Their goaltender who led them to the Frozen Four in 2009 now cannot stop a beach ball. They cannot score to save their lives. BU is still a good hockey team without Nicastro. If the Terriers can focus, no way do they not sweep.

                          I was actually in Vegas a week and a half ago, and none of the sport books I went in to (Tropicana, NY NY, Bellagio, Riviera, Hard Rock, MGM) had odds for the Frozen 4. Was not happy about this either.

                            I like Rosen at Center...a Lot, but the team could always throw him back on D and dress Gilroy and Cisse.

                            Other than that it's time to see if Ronan can play.

                            UVM is having a down year but with the recent events and the fact that BU teams often look lost up there I'm not too excited for this match-up.

                              By now anybody who doesn't realize the college hockey is a niche/regional sport with very LITTLE interest outside of its hotbed areas isn't paying attention. And I don't care how much "growth" there is regarding areas of the country they recruit from, the percentage of people in those areas who actually play is small. The reality is, unless you live where there is ice, the only way you can play is if you have enough money for equipment and ice time and that leaves most people out.
