Speaking of Billy Pierce....
 
When Billy Pierce received the game misconduct in the first period of the game against
Michigan, I was hoping that was how his career at BU would end.  The captain of the
Terriers thrown out of the game in the first period, ending his career by taking a cheap
shot against a Michigan player from behind. LOSER.
 
Unfortunately, BU won and Pierce would get to play again :(

I think to be succesfull a team has to respect ALL of it's opponents.  When you don't,
you will lose games that you otherwise should have won.
