Re: UMass Lowell 2014-2015 Season: The March to March

4-1 after two. I'm shutting this off. This is awful to watch right now.

Agree, it's tough to watch. They had a nice 1st period but all the penalties in that 2nd period just killed all their flow. Second night in a row the starting goalie has been pulled.

Penalties so far.....unbelievable.

Smith gets benched and Bazin sticks the Finn in over Boyle. Obviously a statement and resigned to a loss.

The goaltending has caught up to them this weekend

Another Lowell PP cut short by a penalty. That's the fourth time tonight that has happened.

It was inevitable. Let's take 4 points next weekend😎

Norm said the effort was there unlike last night but did not mention anything about goaltending.

What a joke of a game.

I'm not surprised. Talking about the obvious weakness in that position takes the focus off the larger team issues. He's got a lot of coaching ahead of him.

Woof.

On to Merrimack

Hopefully they can get back on track next weekend. 1-4-0 in the last 5 games with a whole lot of questions after this weekend. Special teams, goaltending, defensive zone play, faceoffs (PC 47-30 tonight) plenty of things to work on with week.

This team is flawed but they are still 8 games above .500. I don't think they're dead yet.

There are highlights? Sick so missed most of the game because I fell asleep after the flurry of penalties. From the looks of it on here someone needs to figure how to make this thread play 'The wheels on the bus" when we click on it.

WHICH flurry of penalties?

Far from dead but with 9 games left not the time for a break down, obviously. Besides the goaltending, I tend not to think there are structural flaws with the team as a whole..maybe not. With the number of frosh on the roster, I certainly didn't think they would have had such a strong start, but they did, and as such set an expectation that they can compete and succeed at a high level. I have always felt that the wins, in most part, were achieved in spite of #33. Perhaps their inexperience is being exposed now. Clearly this team is capable of better and the team of the last 2.5 games isn't going to cut it.

I agree and I think a lot of others do as well.
