Re: Vermont 2013-2014 Season Thread : The Golden Year
My 40-45% was just based on my personal judgement as a long time Catamount and college hockey fan. Nothing more, nothing less. I expect Union to be on the same level as Lowell....which is very, very, very good. There was little to seperate us and Lowell...on the margin Lowell is a little better and would win an extra game or so out of every ten played.
In the end, its a college hockey game between two very good teams. Focusing on things like number one rankings and the like, in my opinion, discounts the fact that in hockey lesser teams beat "better" teams all the time. BC lost to Sacred Heart for gods sake. I just don't beleive there is a huge difference between the quality of these two teams, though I think Union has shown it is the better team. I could be wrong, and tomorrow will tell the true tale.
