A friend of mine was a two- time all American linebacker known for his intensity on the field. He shared how common it was in bars, weight rooms, etc., for guys wanting to mess it up with him—pure testosterone behavior. That doesn’t excuse violent behavior, but I’m guessing well known male athletes have to deal with stupid alpha dog behaviors a lot.

Thankfully, only Sioux fans count.

You’re universally loved for all your archived games alone!

We’re grown adults with professions, families, and civic responsibilities spending what could be fairly described as an excessive amount of time on social media talking about a game played by college kids, most of whom are strangers to us. What ISN’T odd about that?

I’ve never known a truly good hockey coach who used profanity.

As long as they can hang on to a 1-seed in the NCAAs, what they do at the conference level seems pretty unimportant to me, except as it relates to team (especially goalie) confidence.

It will be a pleasure to see our two Victoria guys team up on a goal like their game winner that got so much play last year.

Too soon. 😞

Good for him. Not many coaches get unlimited extensions. He’s like a Supreme Court Justice now.

And he seems to be learning without becoming timid on the ice. Another sign he’s mature beyond his years.

Yeah, he’s been a gift there too

Not completely convinced on the big faceoff part.

I think Powers deserves just a little slack. His days there may be limited, but he did coach them up from club status, I believe. That said, it’s always fair to go after the coach on the other bench.

Me too. Still, BU and BC may be down in the rankings, but they are both still venomous snakes. Gophs are a garter snake.

Not just that. A season full of great hockey and surprising success doesn’t just disappear if the team doesn’t get to the FF. There’s pleasure in this game beyond bragging rights.

I often kid, but not there. I actually did not know, which shows my ignorance I guess.

How can BU lose so many games with all that talent. Coach on the hot seat?

A week off to prepare for the dog fight. And to heal up. Anything on Zakreski?

This team’s depth has yielded great results and a lot of excitement. That said, does the staff eventually start planning for NCAA tournament play when increased commercial breaks change line line-matching dynamics? Or is that “overthinking” and to be avoided?

I may have asked before, but who coaches faceoff draw skills on this team? The faceoff schemes as well

In all walks of life.

Some. Even top talent can be turtling wimps.

Sundevils got no answer for warriors from the land of sundogs and squeaky snow.

I can see where guys from the locker room might come here to find out whether there’s a divided locker room.

After watching that game, I think they should get the sweep tomorrow, not because they played well but because ASU looked so inconsistent. 4-2 Good Guys.
