Friend was there, guessed about 2K.

Tomorrow's games will be on CPTV Sports, which is over-the-air in HD and also on all cable providers in state. They may also have streaming on their site.

I invite everyone to do the BBall-Hockey twofer that I will be experiencing.

2K Seems similar to the UCONN / Quinnipiac game at Bridgeport earlier this year.

Last part of the period looked downright scary. Their passing was terrific and we really started to get tired chasing them around.

 

[Jimdish255]

I keep thinking there's a ton of good high school hockey players around here that would respond to a good promotion for this game. It's not like they're going to school tomorrow. This is a great venue and too many empty seats.

 

[Jimdish255]

Still can't finish but the second period was much better by UConn. should have had one or two especially a shot passed up on a 2 on 1 and some whiffs in front. Still a one goal game.

 

[TheDoggPound]

ALL UConn home games should be in Hartford. I don't mind the tournament so much (although it be better attended in Hartford) but Colorado College and ND should be in Hartford. It's gonna pizz me off when the ND game has empty seats.

We made some good plays that period and had some chances but tend to stumble over ourselves when we're around their crease. Either it's a whiff, weak pass, blocked shot on a 2-1, etc.

 

[TheDoggPound]

Another 2-1 blocked shot arghhh

 

[specialisthusky]

Gurley off the post that would have been huge

 

[TheDoggPound]

Played even with the #7 team but we stumbled over ourselves when we had our chances. I guarantee a win Jan. 10th.

Can play with anyone on any given night... Just need a few more snipers.

We need Richardson and Wight in the lineup. Our lines have settled in but imo we'd be better off shifting Schwartz to center and substituting for Golonka & Norris. Drop Ronan down to the 3rd line with Schwartz and Wight. Put Richardson on the 2nd line with Naas and Kasperi.
