UConn at BU in HE playoffs

[ASweet3781]

Getting a quality ice hockey facility on campus would be even more impressive for potential recruits.

Don't they want to play in front of....people? When the lower bowl is filled to the T at the XL the atmosphere is supreme to any I've watched in Hockey East. The Boston schools in particular. Watching our games at BU and Northeastern it was hard to stay interested because no one was there. That can't be fun to play in front of.

On campus facilities matter big time in recruiting in any college sport. Besides, given what is going on in Connecticut you can't count on the XL Center staying open long term.

Very nice season for UConn. Coach Cavanaugh has done a good job with this group. UConn will probably take a step back next year wth the graduation of all the seniors. UConn will be very young next year and will need time to develop. It should be fun watching a young UConn team develop over the course of next season. Overall, I am happy with the direction of the program under coach Cavanaugh. I am looking forward to seeing the team compete next season.

It would be a shortsighted disaster to close the XL Center.

This is tough to swallow. Whoever mentioned Coach Cav being 0-12 is factually right, however, watching how hard these kids competed in this 2 game series, does not support what I believe to be the intent of drawing negative attention to the Coach’s playoff record. Typically a coach loses in the play-offs because his teams don’t show up/underachieve. Regardless of his record, Coach Cav had these kids ready, they pushed their potential higher by out working teams. Kids don’t do that for inferior leaders.

Still, it’s tough. And it’s tough because we now expect to win, which is great for the program, but terrible for my stress and anxiety.

UConn outshot BU 37-19 tonight. Outshot them 15-5 in the third period.

Its amazing BU ended up pulling out 2 wins the last 2 days. Huska was clearly not sharp at all after not playing for two months.

Big props to the UConn fans who showed up. Second straight game you were heard big time with the chants and second straight game the BU announcers were impressed with the IceBus
Wish there was a game tomorrow I could go to
