You've played hockey all your life and you have a chance to go into the 3rd period of the Championship game tied 1-1. You leave everything out there.

Way more umass fans here.

The game is in Massachusetts, makes sense

 

[CTBballfan243]

UConn starting to play prevent offense, I mean defense

 

[BugsyCT]

Keep the updates coming - I’m at Mohegan watching the CIAC DII title game. Go UConn!!

 

[CTBballfan243]

UMass is owning the play along the boards

 

[firstnline]

UMass just skates so well. Looks like 10 on 5.

 

[Jimdish255]

We look okay. Skating legs still there. It's pretty even right now.

 

[CTBballfan243]

UMass just physically abusing UConn now.

 

[Jimdish255]

Hard hit along the boards and Wheeler is down. Not sure if either player got his arm up.

UConn players can’t seemed to stay on their feet. Falling all over the place

it's a penalty the radio guys are saying, but they are stunned it's not a major or at least being reviewed.

"That is the worst officiating I have ever seen, hands down"

 

[ScottVib]

Or not even a penalty now.... they are shocked. So much for my maybe we'll get favorable refs for the chance to have 4 Hockey East teams into the NCAA tournament.

 

[Jimdish255]

UMass has looked for every opportunity to hit guys even off the puck. But that's how it's being called so you adjust.

That was not boarding. This is big boy hockey. Good no call.

[ScottVib]

I think they saw an elbow to the head and that was what they were questioning.

 

[Jimdish255]

Nice rush by Turnbull but no one to feed there.

 

[huskymedic]

 

[Jimdish255]

It's a game of inches. Every pass, every clearance.

 

[firstnline]

Great news.

Doesn’t sound that way on TV

I agree.

 

[Jimdish255]

Off the post?
Man that was close!
Not the post but really close to a goal.

 

[Jimdish255]

Clear late hit by UMass. Come on refs!

[firstnline]

Can't keep possession long enough to get shots on goal.

 

[CTBballfan243]

UConn continues to turnover the puck in the worst spots. Tie game sudden death OT. I’ll take it.

 

[firstnline]

Well we're taking UMass into OT. a real nail biter
