-> Two key UConn players are questionable for the weekend. Jake Flynn (lower body) and Hudson Schandor (upper body) both missed Saturday’s win after getting hurt the night before, but their status remains up in the air for this weekend.
“I think those are gonna be more Friday decisions,” Cavanaugh said on Wednesday. “I'm not trying to be coy, they just haven't practiced yet. They skated a little bit today. We had a morning skate and they skated a little bit today, but I think tomorrow will tell more how they go through practice.”
Flynn took an awkward hit to the legs and went into the locker room after coming off the ice. He went back out for a shift but quickly returned to the bench and didn’t play again. As for Schandor, he took a big hit in the first period of Friday’s game and although he finished the contest, he couldn’t push through the next day.
Those are the only injury questions for the Huskies heading into the UNH series. <-
