#20 UConn v. Holy Cross Crusaders (Friday 10/13/23 @7p @Hart Center & Saturday 10/14/23 @7p @Toscano) Friday game on NESN+/ Saturday game on ESPN+

It will be very difficult to get an at large bid out of Hockey East this year. I don’t see UConn being in the top 4 teams this year. I don’t get caught up in the NCAA tournament. To me the Hockey East tournament is more important.

Insane take. They’ve got to make the NCAAs once in 12 years.

Well being one of only a handful of teams never to make the tournament, it’s a big deal.

If you want to be a serious program and want to show recruits you are a serious program, the national tournament means a lot.

I’m sure it means a lot to UConn. I just don’t care that much about it. Win Hockey East and UConn will make the tournament. An at large bid is all determine by that ridiculous “pair wise” system.

Holy Cross with a 1-0 lead after the 2nd period.

Holy Cross with a 1-0 lead after the 2nd period.

We were pressuring them at the clothes but just couldn't find the net.

 

[CTBballfan243]

Another strong period by the Huskies. 1-0 Holy Cross.

 

[mac2351]

Owen Simpson does a good job of getting the puck to the net from the point.

Just when you thought the power play couldn’t get any worse

As my old bantam coach used to say “ UConn couldn’t score in a brothel with a fist full of $50’s”!!!!!

Pairwise is the best system they’ve ever used. It’s good.

The barn looks good, a lot of empty seats though.

Season ticket holders who don’t show up

What does Mahshie do? He’s been awful, nonexistent

 

[CTBballfan243]

Holy Cross is a really good hockey team. Really impressed with how tenacious they are.

 

[huskymedic]

What a mess…

 

[CL82]

Well, that was disappointing.

 

[CTBballfan243]

UConn’s not playing a bad game. They just don’t really have a plethora of goal scorers. They still play hard.

 

[mac2351]

This is probably a crazy take but has Cavanaugh reached his ceiling as head coach?

Yeah, that’s a crazy take. Holy Cross is just a really really good hockey team. There is no shame losing to them. You just tip your hat to Homy Cross, the better team one the games this weekend. UConn will get better as the season progresses. Just need to get enough points to make the Hockey East tournament.

Everyone makes the Hockey East tournament.

Holy Cross is not a really good team

Oh, did they switch back again to where everyone makes the tournament? I would disagree on Holy Cross. I thought UConn would take a step back this year. They lost some good players to graduation. I figured this year they would finish in the 7 to 9 spot.
