Maine’s lines:

Fossier-Pearson-Tralmaks
Vesey-Holesinsky-Robbins
Westerlund-Pieper-Smith
Perez-Lacroix-Shea

Hamilton-Michel
Holway-Muhelbauer
Binner-Keeper

Swayman

Very happy to Holesinsky in the lineup, and the first line reunited.

Sorry, I overlooked this. Thanks for answering me early.

Yes, I agree. Would like to get a look at Holesinsky. I like the defensive pairings. Hopefully the defensemen don't get turned again. And hopefully the forwards play puck deep on the boards and grind it out. Limiting the speed breaking out will help towards shutting down unhs offense.

Maine totally controlled the game during and after the power plays, and they score a late one to make it 1-1 after 1.

I thought uhn controlled first 10 minutes. Maine threw the kitchen sink at Tirone after that

I thought the goal Swayman gave up was relatively soft for him.

I thought Maine did well grinding on the boards.

And Westerlund was outstanding first hitting the pipe then going to the net front and parking in front of Tirone. Smyth there too clean up and get one of those garbage type goals... love the way Maine played that period in the last two thirds of it.

Agree on goal let in by swayman, 5 hole, never closed it. Smith lifted that over Tirone shoulder from my seat ? Good shot

UVM is going to blow it again tonight. Thanks for nothing.

Oh man, Robbins. Kinda tough to watch there.

I feel like Tirone personifies “better lucky then good”. Maine has had a lot of chances and he’s given up tons of rebounds and they can’t put it home.

Maine looked flatfooted to me for a lot of that period . They don't move their feet. So many missed passes. How did UNH score, looked like another softie from here??

I feel bad for him, he does a lot of hard work and just whiffs a lot. He was in front and took a beating on that second Maine goal. Saw Michel get buried in front of the net. I like that Maine's going to the net and willing to pay a price for the tough goals.

On the second goal given up it was also soft. Looked like low velocity from the blueline... surprised that got by Swayman.

Hamilton has lost his cool. He is a liability at this point. He keeps that up he will end up handing the two points to Unh. Gotta be smarter, he was fortunate they evened it up to where Maine still got a power play on the original board on Perez.

Like how Maine is playing save Hamilton's undicipline and the soft goals given up.

Routine wrister, low velocity, from the point. Looked like went between blocker and body. Must have been a knuckle ball. Soft goal.

It was also a bit soft, Id day both goals tonight are ones Swayman usually has. A good sign that even in a tough game by Swayman for his standards, Maine is still in it. Competition not great, sure, but he hasn’t had to carry them tonight.

Wow. Another tough softie. Not Jeremy’s night.

Re: UMaine Black Bears, 2017-2018, reds last stand part 2

I think it deflected of Holways stick.

Meanwhile Tralmaks with great move to start offense where eventually Pearson redirects it. Another net front goal.

Tied at 3

Game saving play by Binner. UNH player would have had a breakaway.
