tied 1 to 1 after one period. I think we had a power play goal from bill arnold.

Arnold on the PP.

Down 2-1 now. Getting outshot 15-13.

Surprised that York went with Venti again.

BU crushing PC 4-0 already. Really need those two points to keep pace with the drop-kick dogs.

Merrimack losing to UNH. Would be big if the Wildcats steal one there.

New Hampshire held on to win.

I was watching the BU providence game earlier. BU looked unstoppable. although providence really isn’t very good and can’t sustain any pressure. But still. BU looked amazing

by oneilltn on Jan 20, 2012 9:07 PM EST reply actions  

Providence isn’t any good.

by Brian Favat on Jan 20, 2012 9:13 PM EST up reply actions  

ya they really aren’t

by oneilltn on Jan 20, 2012 9:13 PM EST up reply actions  

Lowell just waxed Northeastern tonight. NU also not very good.

by Brian Favat on Jan 20, 2012 9:14 PM EST up reply actions  

NU always plays BC very well though. they have the talent to compete with anyone

by oneilltn on Jan 20, 2012 9:16 PM EST up reply actions  

Though Northeastern is down this year. First season BC has swept them in 6-7 years.

by Brian Favat on Jan 20, 2012 9:18 PM EST up reply actions  

ya but think about how all the games against NU went this year. either a last second goal or a struggle for 60 minutes to win by 1.

by oneilltn on Jan 20, 2012 9:20 PM EST up reply actions  

To be honest, I’m not sure how good this year’s BC team is.

by Brian Favat on Jan 20, 2012 10:00 PM EST up reply actions  

im in the same boat
