When something is labeled "a rumor" it just that not factual.For others to then continue speaking as if they know something that they do not is unaceptable and careless. Charlie Coyle made a decision to take a different path. If anyone truly cares, he's doing a fantastic job in Canada. He has his priorities in order and his success and dedication to the game of hockey should be congratulated not degrading. Grow up. It's best if you speak only about things you know to be true. That is the type of class and good character that Charlir Coyle would and has always displayed. Maybe we should all stop, think and take a lesson from a very young man with honorable principles. Our society might just benefit. Also, (TIP) many should never pass up the opportunity to keep their mouths shut. Have a nice day!!!!!!!!! SKW

From a long time BU fan to Anonymous April 18.

Don't kid yourself. BU was a good team with Trivino, Nicastro and Coyle. BC was a great team once they got their goal tending straightened out. And, they did that in a big way. Take a look at BC's winning streak and just how they beat the hell out of just about everyone. It was not even close after the Beanpot.

How did we tie BC in the Beanpot? I remember leaving and seeing BC holding the Beanpot.

This could have been a national championship team. Because of three players thinking only of pleasure and themselves and not the team we went downhill in the playoffs. This year the college hockey teams were weak and we could have had only had BC in the way. We tied BC in the Beanpot and could have had a great chance in the NCAA's

We're in the Frozen Four - we are the BU Eagles or the Boston College Terriers.

All is well. Let's keep Parker forever.

This team was able to keep things together with all the issues they had to deal with and put a good record up as well as make it to the NCAA tourney. Much credit should go to them and the staff. Blow them up? You are a real jerk! Why don't you put on a pair of skates (if you can) and get out there with them? You putz!

2012-03-29T03:00:24.925-04:00

Noonan and clendening are two of the best defensemen in not only the hockey east but the country as well. We will still have Nieto and Megan to score as well as Gill and Rodrigues who showed a lot of potential. Commenters that are "disappointed" are selfish because they think that BU will not be as good when in reality you are jealous that you never had the chance to make such a tremendous decision with an incredible oppurtunity riding on it.

2012-03-29T00:47:31.331-04:00

He game us his all. That is what we need in a BU Hockey player. If he is that close to a degree he must have been a serious student. We need more of these type of students at BU. It would seem only BC keeps players for four years. Is the academic load so easy that they finish so early and in one case get a Masters also (In four)? I think the look into the hockey program this summer should be a good look, also, into the work load. It seem these kids have a lot of free time. I took a full load, worked part time, and played two sports. I did not have any free time to drink and chase girls. ( I did chase girls on the weekend however!) Two or three others will go and there will be a new team next year. We must get some older foreign players who want a degree and can be good. Why have we had no one from Europe for so long? There has to be a large pool of kids that want a free education and can play good hockey. Do Bavis and Powers have any idea along these lines? I doubt it. Jack, you are a great guy, GET A RECRUITER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That fine Alex, go ahead and leave. We don't need you because we have far better players coming in. While you're at it, could you take Noonan and Clendening with you? We need defenseman who can actually play defense.

2012-03-27T20:29:40.185-04:00

We'll certainly miss his talent, but I wish him the best of luck as long as he's not playing the Bruins. :) No hard feelings here; he didn't leave in mid-season or bail at the first sign of adversity, and he gave the Terriers some excellent play.

Great captain. Great player. Good luck Chris!

2012-03-27T17:30:05.624-04:00

Hey dissapointed. How in all hell can you call Alex a traitor. What is the matter with your brain! Alex is near graduation. He gave BU three excellent years. If he thinks he is ready for the next step, he should do what he has to do to further his future career.

He will have both a degree in economics and a professional career, hopefully on the NHL level sometime soon.

If you want BU back in the National Championship hunt, stop the rediculous complaining and understand that the players that will get BU there are players that are so good that staying 4 years is highly unlikey.

Chiasson was a great Terrier. He will do well in the NHL. Nice to hear someone actually appreciate the great privilege to receive a scholarship to study and play ice hockey at BU. Wish he were coming back.

One more congratulations to Alex and a heartfelt note. You are on the right track and we are happy that you will get your degree in economics. Good luck in the next phase of your hockey life. We will follow you with the same BU hockey passion that we followed so many other BU players. Come back to BU from time to time.

2012-03-27T13:09:44.897-04:00

I'm very dusappointed What a traitor. We really need him next year because no one left or coming on can score. I'm very disappointed.

2012-03-27T11:15:43.615-04:00

Congratulation to Alex. While I am sorry to see him leave early, I am very happy he will earn his degree and that he is leaving with such good feelings for his experience at BU. It is a nice counterpoint to some of the less positive stories that we've heard this season.

I reiterate, you all suck. You know nothing about hockey and heart. If they had no heart they would've rolled over long ago. Get off these comment threads. I feel dumber being subjected to your idiotic points of view.
