Anybody watching on espn+ and hearing the guy who is screaming at the refs that they are horrible lol, get him a mic as the color commentator instead of Joe D
 
Crazy period. Love the shorty and then the second quick goal
 
.-.
All alone at the blue line in a tie game... saw that UNH goal coming. Jeez.
 
Well that was unfortunate. Feel like we dominated the bulk of the game.

If this team is watching the tournament at home this year, they can remember this loss.

The league is not good enough this year to screw around like we did tonight. And it starts by not playing your BEST goalie.
 
Pathetic effort in the third, 0 penalties on UNH all game come on stripes, weird how Muldowney could come out of the locker room for last 2.5 min goalie pulled situation but couldn’t be out there at all before that to maybe prevent some of the goals
 
There is a strong possibility Hockey East is a 1 bid league with a max of 2. Definitely trending that way.

A staple of a Cavanaugh team handling your goalie like it’s an nhl schedule with back to back games in an 80 game season, Of course the players aren’t blameless either no killer instinct.

And on Tuesday they are playing a 1-12 team.

If he was that concerned with too many games in too many days wouldn’t it make sense to start him that game?!?

That makes it even more mind boggling.

We were the inferior team in this series. Lucky to get 3 points vs a team that on paper we should have handled.
 
They owned us in the third period. On the plus side I moved across the rink and sat at center ice to get away from an obnoxious drunk dude. The seats were nice…the result of the game left a lot to be desired.

I was at the game and I heard him from across the arena.
 
I can't believe they blew that lead. I don't get why cav didn't call a timeout after they tied it and fire up his team. And honestly not impressed with hendrixson that 4 goal he should've stopped. That's now two games where he's given up the winning goal for the other team. I don't get why sanborn hasn't gotten any game time yet his numbers in jrs are way better than hendrixson. Well they better learn from this and beat the crap out of Stone Hill because if they don't they will really fall back in the npi rankings. They are now 23 after the loss!
 
Totally inexcusable loss. @CTBballfan243 will find a way to defend it.

These guys won one ncaa tournament game and think they don’t have to work for anything anymore.

Last season is starting to look like a major outlier and it’s back to the usual. It seems last season was more a result of Schandor’s massive leadership ability and putting a team on his back and refusing to accept the debacle of ‘23-‘24. However, that one season will eventually earn him a new contract.

That s-show brought back terrible memories of bygone seasons. UNH decided to take it to us in the third and we wilted.
Maybe Moose would have pulled it off, but Henrickson was not going to do that! Unless Moose was hurt, there was no reason to sit him. Everyone who said Henrickson should have been set up for Stonehill is dead balls on. But, bottom line - UNH started banging us around in third and sadly we couldn't respond... Note to Cav - get some size.
 
The thing that bothers me the most about this group is, they always seem to be looking for the perfect pass and in doing so they pass up some pretty good looking shots. One thing New Hampshire did was pepper our goalie with shots. Someone went high some went wide, but when they hit the boards behind the goalie, they sometimes come back and cause some issues. Put the puck toward the net please. Not every goal has to be a highlight real goal.
 
I sit right behind Bomber 36. We couldn't believe Henrickson was starting over Moose, when the obvious move was to start him Tuesday against a weak Stonehill squad. That said, I didn't think Henricksen was bad. He got little help from his defense in the third period, as turnovers below the blue line led to UNH goals that I won't blame on our goalie.

That game should have been a 3-1 UConn win, 3-2 at worst.
 
Disappointing game to lose, but at the end of the day...
