I am just shocked I have heard about some of the other college prospects but not much of Emery. As long as he is playing well and defensively responsible, that is all that matters although I am shocked by the lack of assists and I just hope he is getting enough ice time. That is important for his progression.

The production was not really an aspect of his game in previous years either. It's not like he all of a sudden stopped producing. It's just part of his game that he needs to develop. He's by far the youngest D-man on his team and ND has done really well in the past with the development of players so I am not concerned at this point.

Fortescue gets 5 and a game for a headshot. The replay looked dramatic. Announcers showed a tussle between Fortescue and the UConn player right before the hit. Then the UConn player was skating across the ice to the bench and Fortescue just skated through the UConn's player's head.

That's his 3rd major in 2 years. The rules are quite a bit stricter in college, but he's going to have to learn to be less reckless.

This reminds me of Edström who was suspended for 4+ games multiple times in the SHL for hits to the head.

Hits that in the NHL would be considered clean as the contact went through the body in some of them.

BC wins in OT on a Hagens goal. I drifted in and out of the game, UConn had BC on their heels for a lot of what I saw though. UConn got the tying goal while on the PK, but then they weren't able to capitalize on the ensuing 5min PP after Fortescue's misconduct.

Fortescue's hit tonight would not have been considered clean in any league. :laugh: It was not a good move by him, out of sheer frustration.
