What a brutal 1st series of the year. We are going to get punched in the mouth and it will be very interesting to see how this young team responds. A split would be a very good weekend. Getting swept wouldn't be surprising. If we sweep I would be surprised and would be thinking that the Frozen Four is real distinct possility. It's obviously too early to tell, but sweeping the Boston teams in Boston would make a very serious statement.

I can see us beating BU, but not BC. BC went into a hostile environment and spanked North Dakota. DU had a cushy exhibition game at home. Friday, DU will be playing a "battle tested" #1 team in their own barn. None of this adds up to optimism for Friday night. But like they say, that's why they play the games. Bennett, Shore, Zucker & Co. will have to strike with the first goal, otherwise it could get out of hand.

I am not worried about DU's ability to score with the best of them. They will. We have 5-6 guys that can pass, shoot and score with regularity.

DU fortune's will ride on the shoulders of Adam Murray. If he can step up and be a WCHA-level goalie for three months (.900 to .920 in svs. pct) DU can play with anyone.

If he can't step up and stays in the .870 to .890 range, DU will likely not be elite this year.

It's that simple.

I really am not worried if cc spanked bc last year and we whipped up on cc last year bc lost a lot we should take care of business very easy

Who are you 6:39? Is that you Mexico? If not, your logic is certainly Mexico dumb.
(1) That was last year.
(2) We didn't whip up on CC. In fact, we split with them for the season and got our azzes handed to us 9-2 in the Springs.
(3) Even if the two above items weren't true, we are playing BC in Boston. It would never be easy.
(4) You're a dumbazz. If you're a Denver fan, please read and not post. You are embarrassing. If you are Mexico (or some similar creature), please grow up and stop being a troll.

and (5) BC did whip up on us last year. That was so bad I had erased it from memory.

DU certainly has something to prove against BC this year. I think DU will play their hearts out and give a great effort.

Chill out ass clowns. I generally sign my posts. Sometimes as mexico, sometimes as jesus, sometimes as co14ers. I looked at the post and thought the same thing. DU beat up on CC??? What about the 9-2 game? Please don't insult me. I'm a troll but I'm not stupid...

On a side note - who is coming to the trailer park for the game on Friday? My gramma is super excited to meet you guys!

People who are never in the room at the same time like Batman and Bruce Wayne: Mexico, Jesus, BigBossMan, ISay Isay, Randy May and the Anon guy who keeps on posting about Schwartz not making team USA for the WJCs.

9:06, that's the point moron. There's some troll that's posted probably about 10 times since last year that Schwartz sucks because he didn't make team USA. I correct him everytime but he keeps coming back. Like Mexico's herpes.

FWIW, I'm still in the "Ron Mexico is Randy May" camp...
