Did anyone else notice the BU players trying to leave the Ice before the end of the game congrats stick bump.

Yep...one of the coaches yelled at them and got them in line.

 

[The Viking]

When they were announcing UConns lineup some of the BU players came off their blue line and did some practice shooting without a puck. Thought that was not so classy and weird.
Is an imaginary slap shot from the slot going to help you at that point

Tonight’s matchups.

UVM vs Maine on NESN at 4:30. Rooting for the unlikely UVM upset.

 

[Dooooooomed]

GO UConn, Vermont, Merrimack, and a Lowell/Amherst tie!

So....elephant in the room. Where does Cav stand with you based on this latest run? Earlier in the season, many of us were calling for a change. Just taking the pulse of some of our more knowledgeable fans. It does seem pretty obvious that he’s not going anywhere unless he decides to leave on his own.

 

[Bomber36]

UVM 0 Maine 0 after one. UVM had a five minute PP but could put one home. They were tied 1-1 after the first yesterday, so I’m not putting much stock in this.

The players probably read this message board and decided to play hard for the good ole coach.

I think you are saying that with tongue firmly implanted in cheek. . But for my part, in no way do I think our opinions remotely affect the players, Cav or our athletic department. We’re just a bunch of fans venting our frustrations during the not so good times and, right now, enjoying the better than average times.

 

[Bomber36]

UVM and Maine still tied at 0-0 in the third and UVM is on their second 5 minute power play.14 minutes left.

Or maybe it is a young team that is finally gaining some traction as it gains experience as the season progresses.

Maybe it’s a combination of that and changes made by the coaches, if any. The defense is certainly more solid with the 3 freshman defensemen really coming along. Guys like Firstov, Turnbull and Rigali have really upped their games recently. Senior leadership looks to be a part of this resurgence as well. Kudos to Freeman and Payusov for their recent play.

 

[Bomber36]

UVM and Maine to OT. 0-0.

 

[Waquoit]

I'm a casual fan. How big an upset was last night?

I don’t really consider it an upset. Just an unlikely and welcome comeback.

 

[Bomber36]

UVM gets a point at Maine. Nice.

 

[Dooooooomed]

I'll take the Maine-Vermont tie!

 

[Bomber36]

The BU announcer with a mash up of Vomacka’s name. Called him Tomacka...I kinda like it. And just like that Robbins scores...1-0!

 

[JeannoCT]

1-0. Zac Robbins

 

[Dooooooomed]

Hell ya!

First time watching live and not just following the thread like usual. Hope it's a W

Sounds like a decent UConn presence.
