It’s just flat out bizarre how BC is right on the cusp of falling out of the Pairwise top-16 but they’re still comfortably in first place in Hockey East … ROFL.
When the game started I was like here we go again…looking slow, not hungry…then 2nd and 3rd periods were much better. Jake was not sharp last night, at all. 2 VERY soft goals, which is highly unusual for him. Let’s hope it all comes back together tonight!!
B.C. is experiencing the same problems the Terriers have had for years after a banner season. They had too many early departures last season and their lack of depth and inexperience are catching up with them. They started very well due to a soft schedule and are still in first place due to that but are starting to struggle even again Hockey East opponents. Not their 3 losses to the Terriers, one to Merrimack recently and their non league records is poor as well.
