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

    Could Maine actually be second in pairwise in Hockey East after tonight's games? It's shocking just how bad Hockey East has done this year out of conference. Tonight is huge for the Hockey East standings, if Maine wins I don't think BU finishes ahead of Maine.

      The amazing thing for Maine is the number of games at hand they currently hold against most of the rest of HEA. Combined with a stretch of games where Maine could get a bushel of points against Merrimack, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire coming up after next weekend, and it could get "interesting", let's say.

        Best case scenario puts Maine #17, .0033 RPI behind Northeastern.

        Providence would be the only Hockey East team in NCAA tournament position.

          Maine has an actual chance of winning Hockey East. They would likely have to sweep next weekend as Northeastern has a pretty easy schedule the rest of the way.

            Yes, I was assuming that. Wasn't assuming that the World Junior team would break up immediately after winning the Bronze medal game and head straight to the airport. But that may be the case. I cannot find a line sheet for either team yet for tonight's game. You?

              Swayman was in Boston this morning and you can bet Red asked him if he was ready to play tonight.....

                  All of BU's players are back from Buffalo, and all but one are in the lineup tonight.

                      Ok, so the BU fans told me it is free. This game is big. Gonna be tough to get any points tonight, but I am optimistic this team will battle to the very end and make it a battle. Really geared up for this game tonight! GO BLUE!!!!

                        Tough play by both sides, excellent goaltending by both sides. Maine had some chances 0 0

                              Both goals were sweet plays.

                                Fortunate calls gave us power plays. Got to keep feet moving and be real aggressive. BU will be very aggressive this next period. I love job Lacroix is doing tonight matched against top line. Have to have a lot of aggrssion on two first shifts. Please do not trap and lay. It won't work with this talent. Gear up and press press press.
