I was at the game last night. Take away every face off win by landon and a few soft goals in front of the net due to Defense breakdowns. It wouldnt even be close. Bullis outplayed Landon on every aspect other than faceoffs. When you win every face-off and only win the game by 2 goals there is a problem. Not as great a team as you think. Landon should be worried. All the credit to Shockey IMO the best face off kid in the Nation. Top to bottom Landon is very Average. I can only Hope Bullis plays them again.

shoulda coulda woulda Landon won, and is #1 in the country. Period.

And take away Trippi and Bullis is average.

That kid mentioned scored at will 7 Points against a soft landon Defense. Bullis never had the ball when they did they scored. Possession was due to face offs. Naming a High school player by name and saying something derogatory and hiding behind an anonymous post is not Only Low Class and Cowardly but what I expected from a Landon Parent. Would love to know your affiliation with Landon !

I agree with you that Shockey could very well be the best face off kid in the country.

Take away Trippi from Bullis, who IMO is the best attacker in the country, Bullis loses by several goals. I think he scored half of their goals and had 1 - 2 assists.

Landon won the ground ball battle, what game were you watching?

Landon also had 6 penalties called against them, where as Bullis only had 1 penalty. Some were very questionable. For all the times Bullis was on man up offense, they went 0 - 6. Talk about some questionable coaching by Bullis. Give Landon's man down defense some major credit.

Landon had a goal taken off the scoreboard in final 2 minutes due to inadvertent whistle by the official but was given back the ball. (they had the advantage and it should have been a play on)

I thought both teams for the most part were sloppy. Landon had several failed clears. Bullis had a few un-forced turnovers on the offensive end. I suspect both teams were nervous as this game has become a major rivalry game played with very high emotions.

Both teams better not sleep on Georgetown Prep who appears to be improving each passing week.

Hey Bro

chill out. No one said anything derogatory about an individual player on Bullis . Alex Trippi for Bullis, is one of the best if not the best offensive player in the country. I enjoy watching him play.

You are the one calling Landon out by calling their defense soft on an anonymous post.

Don't sleep on Prep. They are very capable of beating both Bullis and Landon. Prep might be deeper than Bullis simply because its a much bigger school.

Should be a great game.

Does the new NCAA rule on recruiting mean that there is no contact with potential recruits at all, even through the club coach work around?

Different poster but totally agree. You can see it happening already a few games into the 2017 season.

Ehhh. The risk you take by extrapolating an entire season from a few early wins. DJO has not won since those first two wins. I'm guessing the new coach may already be getting a talking to. And maybe Gib needs to finally ride off into the sunset.

DJO lost to St Albans today. A team that has not had a winning season in a decade. Time for G to take over the HC helm and be given free reign to work his magic. He can't be a second fiddle and a force of nature at the same time. Yes, he has baggage. But hasn't he paid enough penance? If you want a winner, sometimes you have to take the bitter with the sweet.
