BSRS Weekly Awards 11/26

Another Week of Awesome Awards. Enjoy.

Greg Jennings Award-given to the Terrier who best exemplifies the qualities of Greg Jennings through doin' shit and putting the team on his back. (YOU CAN'T STOP HIM)





Winner- Matt O'Connor,G- OC stole the show this weekend making 92 saves on 96 shots and frustrating Sioux of North Dakota all weekend long. This was the first time this year that Coach Quinn has broken the goalie rotation and O'Connor rewarded him with two great performances. You would expect Quinn to ride OC as the hot hand to see what kind of run the Terriers can get on for the final 4 games of the first semester. His play along with the sweet stache that he is rocking currently made his choice a no-brainer.

Joe Pereira Trophy-  Given to the Terrier who, through grit, hard work, and determination helps the team to victory on and off the scoresheet. Just like Joey did. (Interview can be read here)

Winner- Garrett Noonan- Noonan not only produced on the scoresheet with a goal and two assists over the weekend. He also was the emotional leader for the Terriers as he stood up to the goons from North Dakota without taking any stupid penalties. At one point Saturday night, he had ongoing battles with Luke Johnson, Drake Caggiula, and Stephane Pattyn. Noonan leads the team in points and knows the time and place to stick up for himself and his teammates.



Buddy Powers Award- Given to the best BU coach of the weekend

Winner- Mike Geragosian,goalies- It is only right if the goalie coach received such a prestigious honor such as this on a weekend he his goaltender made 92 saves on 96 shots for a 2 GAA and a .958 save percentage

Denny Green Award- Given the player or the team more or less, who is exactly who we thought they were(whether or not they were let  off the hook).



Winner- North Dakota- They gooned it up and they sucked. Exactly the image I had of North Dakota as a hockey team before this weekend started. Their fans lived up to their expectations on Twitter all week as well as the conservative, homophobic crazed fanbase that they are.

Barilla Sieve of the Week- Brian Billett, BC- Billett allowed 4 goals on 17 shots Saturday night in Maine before being pulled for third string goalie Brad Barone in a 5-1 Maine beatdown of BC. That was good for a solid .765 save percentage.

Shaw's Star Market Grocery Stick of the Week- Bill Arnold, BC- Arnold is supposed to be one of the best centers in Hockey East  but he was a -4 Saturday night in Orono. Is that good? Was he defensively responsible? BC would have been better off just not playing their top line which was a combined -9. The real question is who is a bigger asshole, Bill Arnold or Benedict Arnold?

Calhoun/Boeheim Quote of the Week- Matt O'Connor,BU- On North Dakota trying to get him off his game by being physical with him " Yeah I was just trying to stand up for myself. The ref said he had my back...whatever that means (laughs)"
