Great article here about Matt Buckles.

The article says he'd scored 12-13-25 through 18 games. BRP reports it's now 19-19-38 through 24.

Not to worry. We'll stamp out that nasty scoring habit after he gets here.::nut::

And here's an article about his role on the Syracuse Stars for the upcoming season.

He's not to be confused with Anthony DeAngelo, the youngest player ever in the USHL, who's committed to BU.

That's going to be fun for the PBP at MSG.

Another 6'5" scorer.  Can't have too many of those.

He was listed as 6'2" 165 last year.  He projects as a 7'8" 340 senior.  

Here's a fun boxscore.

When I first looked at that box score, I quickly skimmed down the list and thought, "What's so fun about that?  10 goals and he only managed to get the first one?"  Then I looked more closely...

The average age of college freshmen playing hockey is about 20 years old because the majority delay their enrollment. In a 2008 story about why college hockey rosters have grown older, the Boston Globe reported that the 18-year-old freshman college hockey player is "not far removed from tyrannosaurus rex."

In other words:  "Freshmen hockey players are older because freshmen hockey players are older.  In a 2008 story about why freshmen hockey players are older, the Boston Globe reported that nowadays, freshmen hockey players are older."

Have to like this:

10 goals on 21 shots.  Just wow.

To be fair, that would be a step up in both coherence and style for the Boston Globe.
