Boston University defenseman Matt Gilroy was named Hockey East Pure Hockey Defensive Player of the Week honors after he netted a goal in each of BU’s wins over the weekend. One of those wins was a 5-2 domination of limp-wristed No. 12 Boston College.
And just for reference, because I know a lot of you don’t watch college ice hockey, winning the HE Pure Hockey Defensive Player of the Week award is roughly as difficult as winning NBA MVP for a season. And winning it in a year in which Magic, Bird and Jordan all had career years.
Just to let you know, B.U. is currently No. 2 in the nation behind only Notre Dame, who B.U. is better than in many ways, including, but not limited to, book smarts, street smarts, ice hockey and sex with women. Lame schools like Northeastern, whose lesser academic standards have finally caught up with the hockey program, are only ranked #5. I guess that’s good for them, but certainly B.U. wouldn’t tolerate that low of a ranking.
Stay tuned. Because you know if it happens in college ice hockey (men’s or women’s), OTR will cover it.
Why no mention of the Huskies of Northeastern?
Did you not read the post?? Paragraph three, I specifically insulted your hockey team AND your academics. Was that not enough? I can get into the disaster that is Northeastern intramural volleyball if you like.
How come this isn’t categorized in ‘Twisting Guilfoil’s Titties?”
I will add it to that category, but technically, his titties weren’t twisted because he missed the reference. We can always attack the intramural volleyball team. That will get his blood boiling.
We can’t say jack shit about football right now. His Steelers are in the Super Bowl (again) and the Eagles left via NFC Championship game (again).
