Program is finally on the way towards becoming northern New England's worst nightmare.
 
I know we have the Lowell game Tuesday. Is it between UVM, Maine, and BU next weekend? I read Maine get play games at home ?

A BC loss and a UConn win in the next game has us tied for 2nd. (points wise) Based on who we have played this year, that’s amazing.

I'd put more emphasis on PTS%, which it appears HE is going to use for tourney seeding, given the uneven schedules. So I'm rooting for BC to clean up on the other three teams competing with us for spots 2-5. Assume PC will sweep Merrimack this weekend, likely. If BC beats BU again, and NU beats UMass Tuesday, along with us beating UML (by "beating" I mean in regulation - all three points) ,the PTS% after Tuesday's games will be...............

BU - .666
UMass - .663
UConn - .627
PC - .611

THAT would set up a real horserace for the second and third tourney byes.

Sorry for the math errors. It would be even better................

UMass - .633
UConn - .627
PC - .611
BU - .583
NU - .571
 
Different ballgame now, with BU's win over BC. PTS % now................

BC - .711
BU - .708
UMass - .667
UConn - .604
PC - .588
Nu - .538

Of course, we want to win HE, but third place is the realistic goal.....................an HE tourney bye.
 
.-.
Also not clear if HE will use a straight Pts % since BU, UML, and UVM will not be able to play 2 games against all HE teams unless they play 3 games a week for the rest of the season - which won't happen.

The whole year is a gong show and I just hope every team is healthy for the conference tournament and can play it out on the ice. The regular season standings are effectively meaningless. UConn's got a solid team and can beat anyone in the league.

That is a good news bad news situation...good news that we won’t have to be forced into a convenient 2 game set with them, bad news that a team as hot as them has to pause at this point in this Covid ridden season.
 
without vaccinating the student population, I don't know how you don't run into issues at every single campus but who knows.
Is a bubble scenario possible for the Hockey East - at least as we get toward the final 1-2 weeks of the season and into the playoffs or is that a pipe dream?

They’ve also played more games so far this year than a lot of teams.
 
I am a late entrant to the Ice Bus and College hockey in general. Been enjoying this year and even getting into other Hockey East games (loved the BC-BU game the other night).

What's the timetable for the Hockey arena getting built?

If you have a lot of time on your hands, here’s a thread on the arena. The most recent stuff is the most accurate, but it’s certainly an interesting read from the beginning. Oh and by the way, welcome. We have a dedicated group here. Most, if not all of us are season ticket holders and UConn fanatics when it comes to all sports.
