>UConn will play a home and home series with each conference member except for Vermont and Maine. The Huskies will travel to Burlington for two games while the Black Bears will come to Connecticut for a pair.

Despite no out-of-conference matchups, not every game against Hockey East teams will count towards the league standings, though. If the season does begin on Nov. 20 and ends after the first weekend of the March, that would allow for three to four “flex” weekends.

Those would tentatively feature meetings between Hockey East schools that would be treated as non-conference games (i.e without points awarded towards the standings) but could be replaced by any potential conference matchups that may get postponed due a COVID outbreak, for example.<<

>>UConn will have two new members of its staff this season. Paul Devlin took over as Director of Hockey Operations from Morgan Hall, who had previously held the position since Cavanaugh took over the program. However, Hall won’t be completely leaving the program. He’s expected to continue to be involved with the new hockey arena project.

Meanwhile, Vince Stalletti replaced Matt Michno as goaltender coach. Stalletti previously coached at Division III UMass-Darmouth and played at Division III Johnson & Wales College in Providence. As is the case with most collegiate goaltender coaches, Stalletti is only a volunteer assistant which means he’ll work with UConn’s four goalies around twice a week for 30-45 minutes in addition to watching practice tape.<<

Wow. The western teams are really dominating the top spots this year.

Prepare for no fans permitted at Freitas this year. Prepare for no (or very few) televised games at Freitas. Does anyone truly expect NESN to come down to Storrs to televise a game in our rinky-dink on-campus facility? And when, WHEN, will we see a shovel in the ground for the new arena?

Long-time hockey season ticketholder here, with (sadly) little faith that the new rink will be finished on schedule. Coach Cavanaugh is performing miracles recruiting under such uncertainty. If we keep him once BC's York retires...........................that may be the ultimate miracle.

I think Fox 61 plpans to broadcast several games. Plus NESN will do a game or two. It isn’t like they ran to cover games at the XL. And empty arena is an empty arena.

CBS All Access has a contract with Hockey East, I believe it is $6 per month for all league games

Since there is no fans at the gate, and I've been paying monthly since August on their 4 monthly payment plan, how and when will I get my money back ? I'm not going to apply it to next years season or any donations.

I think 7th is a little low personally but it’s always tough to be higher than the perennial powerhouses of the Hockey East. Close to BU which is good
