Glad they are playing. Too bad to open with a great UMass team instead of bottom-dwelling Vermont. 2 of 4 points would be OK; anything more a terrific start.

UConn's Carter Turnbull said he expects to play with Vlad Firstov and Artem Shlaine in the first game. "Just a Canadian boy and some Russians. A little international line there

Carter Turnbull said freshman forward Nick Capone is "a big boy" and has scored a lot of goals in practice.

Daniel Connolly @DanielVConnolly 3m
Turnbull expect "a big jump" in UConn's special teams after both units were towards the bottom of the country last season. He said it's been a big emphasis so far this year, something they've worked on every day in practice.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Courant has more coverage of the UConn men's ice hockey this season due to the great reduction in local sports events due to the pandemic.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but as of now BOTH UConn vs BC hockey games are still on for Friday and Saturday, yes?
If so, fantastic - and fingers crossed. Should be a hell of a test - especially without Firstov and Kuznetsov

To have 6 points after playing four games against BC and UMass is pretty damn impressive.
