@cowgirl lol, it took me ages to figure out that dumb Burger King ad! I’m too old to keep track of all the abbreviations.  Young Whippersnappers need to write English! 😜

FYI on Broz... He was the 13th forward yesterday for Denver. Saw a little bit of ice in the 1st period, but hardly played at all during most of the game. Got a little bit in OT and sniped the game winner.

 

It's interesting to me that a player who produces as much as Broz did this year was their 13th forward for most of the game.  He has like 40 points in 42 games. Maybe he was in the doghouse following their Cornell game?

I think part of it was Rizzo coming back for Denver yesterday. I believe Rizzo took over that first line position from Broz as the game went on, but I am sure others might know info.

I looked in a file of saved images, trying to find the Minnesota/BC allinance image. No luck.

Wasn't that driven mostly by Red Sox fans?  I could not get on board with that since the Red Sox are basically Yankees light.

It may have been?  But, at the time, they weren't really Yankees light, yet.  I think it started before they won the series in '04  If not, it was definitely before they won again in '07

They've been Yankee's Lite forever, they just never won.

Now they've had success and amped up the blah blah blah.   😎

2003 was when I joined here and USCHO, dunno what status it was before then. It was DEFINITELY before they "reversed the curse."

I was at the game and didn't at all see what Jup saw, with it looking to me like Broz played a regular shift throughout the entire game. He went 8-for-15 on faceoffs and was definitely out on a couple of Denver's power plays in the 3rd period.

I didn't think there was an anti-Yankee anything, I thought the UM/BC deal was an Arrogance Alliance or something like that. I could be wrong...

i didn’t pay close enough attention. I just remember a reporter asking Carle after the game if that was Broz’s first shift in OT. Carle said no and that he played some in the first.

I think you are right a different player for Denver who is also called Tristan may have caused the confusion.  I looked at their line charts and that other Tristan was the 13th forward.

If you had "Tristan" as a DU goal scorer in your office pool you probably won.

They have always been Yankees Lite they just lost despite all the spending.  Also one of the whiniest fanbases that exists outside of Chicago.

Would imagine that Denver is going to have to score at least 4 to win tonight (similar to what they did earlier this year when the beat BC). In fact, BC hasn't lost this year giving up less than 4. I'll be curious to see how DU sets up to try slow them down today but I don't think they can try sit back and absorb pressure like they have to get to this point. hoping both teams play open and we see a fun game.

BX is letting Denver stay in this one. They are going to want to change that in the second period.

Denver's big bodies are proving to be a challenge for BC.

Matt Davis was a below average goalie in the regular season with a saves percentage of around 90 %.

In the playoffs he has turned into Dominik Hasek. In 4 NCAA tournament games two of which have gone to OT including a game that went to double OT he has given up only 3 goals while making close to 120 saves. His saves percentage is over 97%.

Denver played their game the whole game. Congratulations.

When BC had the power play late in the third, I thought they would pull their goalie.
