[Hockey it's only a Game]

I'll wait and see what they do against conference opponents. Great start, no doubt, but it's a long season

Picking Northeastern for Hockey east after this Weekend play ? That is way out there.. Played Syracuse tight and took a 3rd period to
finish the game. Colgate is maybe average or below for this year.. Missed a 5-3 power play in the 3rd ? Time will tell. Lets play BU,BC,Prov
a couple of times.. Long season.

I think BU is the class of the conference but a healthy margin, even if Poulin is out for a while. Hopefull she returns quickly. I also think PC will pass up BC this year


I am going to go with;

1. BU
2. PC
3. BC
4. NU
5. UNH
6. Maine
7. UVM
8. UConn

a newcomer to this event. not as easy as it looks from a far.

It's back! Scoring will follow HockeyEast rules - 2 points for correct answer - no shootouts! Anybody can play, but you will only be counted in the monthly and season stats if you participate every week. The weekly schedule will be Monday - Sunday. Anything else?

Let me know who you think will win.

Article on Vermont native and Catamount frosh Amanda Pelkey from the Burlington Free Press.

Great article. Tx for posting. (Seen her play since atom age in the annual Montreal spring circuit, she was always a standout on the VT Stars, and a pleasure to watch her play).
