…subtle fart…Go BC! I would like to see BC come up to Alaska and play in one of our regular season tournaments. My team still has a winning record against you guys, 3-1-1…
BC typically loads up on teams that can actually help its PWR rankings. UAA not in the PWR top 30 at the moment.
No dice, even if it gives the Eagles an extra game.

I don't get it ...
Outshooting UMass 21-15. Both teams 0-4 on the PP.
Maybe Billett just having a bad game? Looks like York pulled Billett in the second period for … wait for it … Chris Venti?
Editor, BC Interruption
at umass, and with our recent track record of not being able to put the puck in the net recently, that would be a tall order. and ya venti was put in for billet. I heard billet let in a couple bad ones.
Typical trap game, though I thought York would have had the team ready tonight, using the last loss at the Mullins Center as motivation.
Guess they are looking ahead to the Fenway game instead.

What the hell happened to this team?
There was no one even close to them for the first month. Now they can’t do anything. Hopefully the suck-titude of the rest of BC’s athletic program isn’t rubbing off.

Can’t believe BC nearly outshot them 2-1 and got shutout by a freshman goalie, making his third career appearance.

Goalie controversy?
Billett is 0-3-1 in his last four after starting out 3-0-0.
