Meme Monday/Wednesday: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle


Welcome back to everybody's favorite BSRS series - meme mondays! We've been lazy about it thus far this year, so this is our first installment of the 2013-14 season. Continuing on the laziness trend, we ran into some trouble creating new memes (thanks a lot Obama) and as such we decided to recycle some good memes from last year. Enjoy, Go BU, and BC Sucks!

BS(R)S Weekly Awards 11/5

Another week. Another set of awards. Enjoy.


The Greg Jennings Awardgiven 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- Danny O'Regan, F- O'Regan put the team on his back this season when they needed him most. With the Terriers trailing 3-2 to PC Friday night, O'Regan told the rest of the team to jump on for the ride because they had a hockey game to win. O'Regan potted the game-tying(on a sweet pass from Baillargeon) and game winning goals on PC sieve Jon Gillies. 

The Joe Pereira Trophy--given to the Terrier who through grit, hard work and determination helps the team to victory both on and off the scoresheet.  Just like Joey did it(Interview with Joe Pereira)

Weekend Recap-BU splits with PC

It's officially BC week so this won't be a long recap. The BU Terriers fought hard to manage a split with the previously #3 ranked Providence College Friars. The Terriers put themselves in an early hole Friday night, giving up 3 first period goals from complete defensive breakdowns in front of Matt O'Connor. Then something changed and they came out flying for the rest of the game while not taking a penalty. The Terriers got goals from Sam Kurker and Matt Lane to get within one goal of PC. Sophomore Danny O'Regan scored the tying and game-winning goals for the Terriers. The sophomore class lead the way as they scored all 4 goals and got the win in net for the Terriers. PC had a late surge but O'Connor stood tall in net for the Terriers as they held on 4-3 and improved to 4-1-0 at Agganis Arena this year.

PC Preview- I'm sick and tired of hearing how good the Friars are

The #19 Terriers come into this weekend facing one of the hottest teams in college hockey in the #3 Providence College Friars. The undefeated Friars have caught everyone's attention throughout the country as they have opened the season 4-0-1 with wins over Minnesota St(X2), Miami, and AIC.  The Friars have been lead up front by junior Ross Maureman and sophomore Mark Jankowski both of whom have recorded 4 goals through 5 games. They are held down on the back end by sophomore Jon Gillies who has posted a .950 save % through his first 4 starts.

The Terriers look to bounce back from a weekend to forget in Michigan. The team was most likely practiced pretty hard this week if Saturday night's postgame comments by Coach Quinn were any indication. I expect the team to come out hungry for a win coming off two losses and with every media member in the world kissing Nate Leaman's non existent championship rings.

PC is the popular pick this year lead by our "favorite" college hockey (not cawledge hawkey) "expert" John Buccigross. It doesn't end with him though. USCHO picked the Friars to sweep this weekend while also featuring them in their TMQ column this week. Not be outmatched on the Providence love affair,  CHN did a feature on them as well.
