Mario and he got his butt kicked...

There was a stretch in the 2nd period where it was not working. Other than that I got 720p. I did notice the frame rate dropping and some audio cutout. Also the lag time of more than 2 minutes was a bit much. But better than nothing.

yup

You read that wrong, he passes too much.

Prediction: the PP will be better against Vermont. :-)

Well the good news is that the coaches will have alot to work on this week. The PP was brutal. Top 6 were good, but pretty dry after that. I think the 2 sitting seniors will be back next week unless there is an injury. For the freshman Johnson was great, looked like an NHLer. Ausmus played very well. The Defense was solid defensively but brutal on offense. Outside of Schmaltz and Simpson any of the 6 could sit. I could also see coming back with 7 D and 11 forwards. Gotta say Mattson was really disappointing. Grimaldi weights more than Tambellini, ouch. Grimaldi needs to talk to Jason Blake about when to pass (rarely). Parks and Cagguila look like the most improved players. Both goalies solid.

Wayne Gretzky, but he fares poorly...

I think if this team gels they are a potential top 5 team. I am certain this team has more talent than Yale or Quinnepiac (still can't spell it) did last year. So you just never know...

Nice get, should easily have the best class in america for 2014 and this is great for 2015.

I think these are fair points. Losing a 2nd round draft pick always sucks, but Goldy will be OK.

Just an FYI, I went to a BU and BC game last year when BC was #1 in the nation and bought tickets the same day. I would not worry too much about getting tickets.

Charlie is stil young. If he wants to be a Fighting Sioux he needs to do something this year. The BCHL is a skating / offensive league which will be very good for him.

Still surprised to see no Wilkie.

I agree with the bolded line. For UND assuming people show, this will be right up there with the Toews / Oshie class. Though there is no one near the level of Toews. Also when a ton of talent is coming like that I think it is easier to keep everyone coming.

Key thing was he played so well as an emergency fill, even out of position that he deserved to start for a D1 team, it just wasn't going to be UND. At Vermont will be a full year starter his senior year. Good for him he earned it. While we just found out I suspect Hak knew for a long time.

Don't assume he didn't I suspect this was a mutual decision for the benefit if Jim.

Things are a little messed up because we did have Ausmus fall in our lap. As such I think that we might see Stecher playing some at forward. I think goal scoring will be our biggest issue this year. If we have any chance at making a run, I think Tambellini, Johnson, and Murphy need to combine for 35-40 goals. I just don't think we get much scoring from the upper classes. I also would not break up the brothers.

Disagree, I think Simpson would be an outstanding Captain as would Pattyn or Panzerella.

Size... Remember Duncan, Panzer, Genoway, Spirko, Trupp and Hoogsteen were of a size that they weren't going to be NHL players. And yet I would take a team full of those guys. Genoway might still prove me off on that one. Also eye popping in the BCHL isn't quite the same as everywhere else...

More odd man rushes in that video than he will see in his NCAA career.

College Hockey News: We check our facts and we... screw it... hit publish...

I suspect we will play Minnesota in the WCHA tournament and if we win that we easily pass them.
