NCAA men’s hockey rankings

Just fyi to all the remedials (remedial is actually an adjective. But since I went to a real school, I can make up my own rules. So for this, remedial is a noun and remedials is the plural version) who went to Northeastern and work for Blast, you might want to make a note that Boston University is the #1 ranked school in Men’s Division I ice hockey. And this is impressive for a school that focuses so heavily on academics.

Chris Drury (pictured) is as NHL-ready as one can be, and will be impossible to stop for the rest of the year. Mike Grier is a force and having a great season. And with DiPietro in net, we don’t see how Northeastern even scores a goal in the Beanpot final. Also, Tom Poti is looking more and more like a blue-chip NHL prospect, so they will need to account for him as well. Northeastern has no one to mark Chris O’Sullivan and when you consider the season Joe Sacco is having, well….the game is over before it starts.

So anyway, here are the current USA Today rankings:

1 Boston University
2 University of Notre Dame
3 Northeastern University
4 University of Michigan
5 Cornell University
6 Miami (Ohio) University
7 University of Vermont
8 University of Denver
9 University of Minnesota
10 Princeton University
11 University of New Hampshire
12 Boston College
13 University of North Dakota
14 Yale University
15 The Ohio State University

BU ice hockey continues to dominate

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.

R.I.P. OTR

Sources close to OTR have told OTR that OTR will be no more. It’s just not the same anymore and it wouldn’t fair to our loyal readers to continue to just go through the motions. We did have a great run though. We broke the Asante Samuel signing. We were the first to report the Eagles interest in Larry Fitzgerald. We still stand by our report that there was a crack in Jimmy Rollins ankle.

We’d rather just shut it down than to run a boring, poorly updated blog, which is what OTR is starting to become.

We can’t thank all of our readers enough. You guys have all been great and we had a ton of fun playing with everyone. Maybe we’ll do it again some day. We could have just let the blog die slowly and not update it, but that’s not fair to anyone. We thought we would give OTR a proper burial by at least letting everyone know that we are calling it quits.

Memorial services will be held Sunday, December 21st at 2 PM at the Lodi, NJ YMCA.

You can send thoughts and regards to MPerry_77@hotmail.com and MicahW@feverpitchmedia.com.

Happy Holidays to all of those in OTR land!!

Guilfoil fixed OTR — it was Perry’s fault

OTR is fine now.

Next time don’t copy and paste weird HTML you aren’t familiar with.

Guilfoil is God.

Let’s twist Guilfoil’s titties

We didn’t say anything to our Editor-in-Chief, John Guilfoil, buuuut…..OTR’s Eagles diiiid kinda sorta treat his Steelers like a child rapist in a maximum security prison this past weekend. And the Eagles defense….ehhhh…..kiiiiiinda sorta stomped the Steelers’ o-line like a narc at a biker rally.

We aren’t saying that the Eagles will be all that good this year or that they will even make the playoffs. We aren’t saying that the Steelers won’t go on to win the Super Bowl. They certainly could. We’re just saying that this past Sunday….wellllll….there was a liiiittle bit of an issue at the Linc and the Eagles addressed it.

This post maaaayyyy get us fired.
