I would imagine Fox will do three years at Harvard and then sign in the spring.

Just to let everyone know, Fox's best friend seemed to be Parsons on the WJ team. They were always next to eachother during the anthem and were next to eachother celebrating the win and seemed to be great friends. He is also friends with Tkachuk as he has photos with him on Instagram. Ya I know I'n digging deep here but havin friends on the Flames and seeing how well Americans are doing on this team I don't think we have to worry too much. Flames have also brought him and Hickey to the Flames game vs the Islanders and have been able to establish good relationships with all their NCAA prospects in the past. Flames have had zero problem signing their NCAA guys and I don't see Fox being different.

RPI has scored 2 literal last second goals, one in the first and one in the second, and go into the 3rd up 4-0. Harvard has been carrying most of the play though. Fox has been OK, he's -2 but there wasn't much he could do on either goal.

Well, Harvard's time in second place in the national polls didn't last very long. After 2 losses on the weekend (including getting shut out on Friday night) they have dropped to 6th in both the USCHO.com and USA Today polls this week.

On the other hand, BU moved up to 3rd in the USCHO.com poll and 4th in the USA Today poll.


On Friday, BU defeated BC 2-1. Hickey had one assist in the game. The two cross-town rivals face off again tonight, this time at BC.

Wow, big jump for BU in the rankings poll...



3 wins last week and 8 wins a row for the Terriers has seen them jump all the way to top spot. Hickey has been finding his way onto the score sheet a lot more consistently in recent weeks as well.


Since reaching as high as #2 just two weeks ago, Harvard has struggled and dropped to 9th, having gone 1-3-1 in the last two weeks. Fox has a point in three straight games.

In the USA Today/USA Hockey poll, BU has moved up to Second overall. Harvard has dropped from 6 to 9 in that poll as well.

Interesting to note that Harvard is dropping the pairwise rankings as well. They are currently 13th according to uscho, which means if 4 teams with lower pairwise rankings upset and win their conferences in the playoffs, Harvard won't be at the NCAA national tournament. (The 6 conference playoff champs and the next ten highest pairwise rankings go to the national tournament). The more they drop in the pairwise, the less likely they will be in the National Tournament.

Colgate is curently tied for 48th in the pairwise rankings they will need to win their conference playoffs to go to the national tournament.

Boston University is currently 3rd in the pairwise rankings, which means Hickey will play in the national tournament if that holds. If Hickey decides to go to pro, then his college season will end on March 24, 25, or 26 at the earliest and that is likely when the Flames will sign him. If BU makes it to the Frozen Four, his season will end on April 6th or 8th, which coincides with the Flames last 2 games of the regular season.

No NHL hockey tonight, but there are a couple of College games being streamed live.

Merrimack @ BU is here... https://campusinsiders.com/live/1-27...ack-at-bu-mih/

The game will be starting soon. BU had their 8 game winning streak broken on Tuesday at Merrimack, so they'll be looking for revenge.


Dartmouth @ Colgate is already underway. It's still scoreless late in the first... https://campusinsiders.com/live/1-27...t-colgate-mih/


Harvard is also playing at Cornell tonight but the stream for that game isn't free. It's 0-0 after 1.

Two Flames prospects for the price of none: https://campusinsiders.com/live/1-28...t-colgate-mih/

Harvard @ Colgate. Both teams are coming off wins last night. Harrison was the only Flames' prospect with a point yesterday (one assist). Fox is 18 in red, Harrison is 19 in white.



Or, if you'd prefer, UMass-Lowell is visiting BU tonight: https://campusinsiders.com/live/1-28...ell-at-bu-mih/

Here's a list of finalists. Not sure it's the same thing as nominees.
