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

    Trap game and Maine fell for it. Too many penalties. I understand putting Rob in net but it changes how the team plays. On to NU, they need to beat teams ahead of them in the standings, until then..........
    I swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell.

      no problem with rob playing. non-conference game. the team has 5 games in 9 days that REALLY matter coming up. lets make sure swayman is ready to go for those. hopefully doherty gets back ahead of schedule.

        Last night could be a positive if it fires up the guys to play harder this weekend. Maine was already 5-0 against the EZAC so not sure how much it actually hurts.

        Anyone know what is going with Smiley? It seemed to me he would have been a better fit on the second line last night.

          I assume you are referring to Holesinsky... probably headed for a medical redshirt

            I was at the Game last night, while I would have certainly stuck with Swayman too, the DMEN made some very bad pinches at the blue line which led to a lot of odd-man rushes. McGovern didn't play great, but a lot of the shots that Brown had were in the slot with limited traffic. The Fossier Line was really the only line that played well in my opinion, they had some very good cycles down low. A few very bad penalties as well, I think it was 5 PP to 1 in favor of Brown which made it hard to sustain a good flow. Maine was all over them in the OT, Fossier needs to get the puck on net in times when he looks to pass, but he is a smart player on the offensive side of the game. I was impressed by Brown's Defenseman Stillwell. Listed at 5'9" but if he is taller than 5'7" i'd be shocked. Very slick skater, reminds me of Ryan Spooner on how he used his edges and he was able to get the puck out of the D-Zone with relative ease. Certainly a game UMAINE should have won

              Yeah, that’s Red’s nickname for him. That is unfortunate news. The times I saw him play you could see there was a lot of talent there.

                A Georgia alum friend of mine asked what the most devastated I have ever been after a sporting event was, obviously I thought about the 2004 title game.

                Like a masochist, I pulled up the highlights on youtube. You will NEVER convince me that Damon's goal was anything but legitimate.

                    The NCAA changing the rule a month later pretty much confirmed that it was a goal.

                      He was injured during the BU game halfway through the 3rd period and never returned.

                          I've been impressed by Holesinsky every time I've seen him play, and I've lampooned Red this year for only rarely playing him. If he's been injured or not at 100% then it would make much more sense why we haven't seen him that much this season.

                            That was bad. For me the loss in OT in Minnesota was the worst. I thought Metcalf was going to will that team to a win...

                              On top of that it was a very soft penalty on Deschamps that led to Denver’s goal and Ryan or someone else could have cleared the zone and didn’t. It was definitely one of the most heartbreaking nights of my life. After Maine beat BC I didn’t think there was any way they could lose.
