I like MC & BC High. Harris could also steal it for AP.

Are you heading to the super 8 wed and thurs?
Wednesday, yes. Thursday, I can't.
How do you think the standings in Hockey East appear at season's end? A couple surprise teams have caused the preseason polls to look like Swiss cheese.
You're right. These picks will change weekly right now, to be honest. Right now I'd say BC wins the league and ND, PC, UML and BU get first-round byes with them.

Do you think Milano or Hanafin ever touch the ice at BC? Seems like many consider them to be gone, either via NHL or CHL.
Good chance they will, but CHL certainly still in play here.
What is the birth date range for the upcoming NHL Entry Draft?
94-96
Will St. Mary's be back in the super 8?
They'd be in there for me right now
Do you think former Merrimack star and Pinkerton Academy coach Casey Kesselring can turn New Hampton into a prep power?
Absolutely. Look at what he did with Pinkerton: Was a doormat when he got there, and turned it into a state power pretty quickly.

Thoughts on Demko so far?
3-0-1, 1.96, .928. What's not to like? Been as advertised, if not better.
You think GSP wins Saturday night?
No
Any news on NTDP goalie Blake Weyrick? Last I heard from the summer he was considering Harvard, PC, and NU. Any change to his status?
No. Have heard the same schools (among others) were talking to him/interested. Has looked great thus far, too.
What about your alma matter MC? Give the Lancers love!
Wouldn't be surprised to see a MC-AP final again.
Why do you like AP to win the S8?
Might have the best goalie in the state. Solid up the middle and will build off last year's finals appearance. Were 10-0-3 down the stretch before falling in the finals. That's very impressive.
Is Cronin the former BC High goalie getting d1 offers?
He hasn't committed yet, but have heard there are several teams talking to him. Could be wrong but thought I heard Holy Cross was one.
Early impressions from the first few weeks of HE play?
Some surprises but for the most part, is what we expected I think. NU looks great, need to keep getting solid goaltending b/c they can score. BC is incredibly. Lowell's sluggish start (UNH's too) a bit of a surprise.
If you're Dennehy who do you keep at starter for merrimack in goal?
I'd continue to split Marotta and Tirronen. Both have played well enough to keep playing.
give me your pick to win the Super8?
This early? Total guess but I like Austin Prep's team.
Did that Nazarian kid from MC commit anywhere for college yet?
UNH
Most underrated goalie in mass hs hockey?
Elijah Burke from Austin Prep. Small, but very good. Could get some college offers but needs to continue to get bigger/stronger. Very athletic.
Going to be in North Andover for work tomorrow. Where should I get lunch?
Harrison's
You back at the Tribune?
I'm a freelancer, so I'm everywhere. Still do a lot of MMA and college puck writing for the E-T.
Best college hockey player of all time?
Hard to compare eras, but in this era, Paul Kariya.
What are you watching on TV right now?
How do you know I'm watching TV? I'm watching a replay of the Garcia-Morales fight on Showtime from last fall.
I was at Frozen Fenway for CM-BC High being a good alum and I must say: it's fun for the first five minutes and then you're just freezing and no seat gives a good view of the game
That's an issue, for sure. Very few good seats. But if they're selling 20-30k tickets, it's not a bad thing.
What high school hockey games would you like to see be played on Frozen Fenway 2014
Has to feature the Catholic Conference somehow. Maybe I'm biased, but they own the state right now. CM-MC could be good. Others should get a chance, too.
