Free week at CBS All Access and you can watch the game tonight. Just remember to cancel before they charge your card.
 
All Merrimack....we don’t look ready to play at all. 10-0 in shots so far. 1-0 on the scoreboard.

0-11 on the power play so far this year. Head bang
 
Miracle they got out of the first period only down 1-0....the score hides how horrible of a period UCONN played in every aspect of the game except goal tending as Vomacka saved them....Once again..they have come out flat and look unprepared....these are the games that are must wins for them in Hockey East...how can this be happening again....The Merrimack announcers are being generous saying UCONN looks rusty from lack of playing...this looks like more than rust.
 
2 man advantage for Merrimack. 37 seconds. And they score. Officially on the 5-4. But we never got the 4th guy back on.

Well Halloween was yesterday but I think I just saw Jekyll and Hyde....Can we just start in the second period from now on?...Keep it up in the third boys...pour shots on the Merrimack goalie he has a horrible save percentage heading into this game....don't let up.

Was at the game last night. Final few minutes a great on-campus atmosphere. Once MC pulled the goaltender, their fans went nuts, particularly MC students and younger local kids. This is why UConn MUST get moving on the "promised" on-campus rink. Only 1700+ in attendance, but 3,500 at the XL Center can't generate the same juice. Until the first spade is in the ground, I'll believe nothing coming out of Storrs.

Let's see how much this great two-point road league victory impacts tomorrow's (Sunday afternoon, awful scheduling) attendance. Want to be wrong, but I predict less than 3,000 fannies-in-seats. Thankfully, the Patriots play at night.

Cavanaugh has done an admirable job, given the woeful on-campus facilities and scheduling hurdles behind the Wolfpack, Husky men's and women's hoops, and God knows what Disney on Ice/Circus performances. Give him the campus rink to enhance recruiting (women's team too).......................NOW!
