    Both goals were scored by freshmen last night. That is an encouraging sign. It's to bad some of the goaltending Maine has gotten against BU and Providence they wouldn't have gotten against UNH or Colgate.

      Bottom line it was the right call...and again a ill timed penalty that came back and bit the Maine again. And in IIHF you have to touch the puck first with your stick then you can use your skate.

        On another note, why was Malcolm Hayes in the lineup? What does he bring to the table that we haven't seen already...maybe he's the guy that RG sends to the Box when they have too many men on the ice penalty's. I don't see him improving Maine's chances on the ice at all.

          Either way it was a costly penalty
          Maine hasn't beaten PC in 4 years so its no big shock they lost. If I was going to bet on a result tonight, Maine gets smoked. Hopefully Rob can keep them in it tonight and they can get a win or a tie. I wouldn't bet on it though

            You can say that about the whole 4th line, someone has to take Fossiers spot

              Is Gibson hurt? He was playing good at one point but seems to have disappeared.

                  I don't think he was in the lineup, not sure if he's hurt or something else.

                    Not sure either. I'd guess coach is sitting him. I thought he was best player on ice a few games, disappears in others.only change tonight is Hoglund in on 4th line

                      For Pappalardo.

                      Lacroix dumped the puck into the corner on a 3x2 and it more or less sums up the season.

                        Hoglund on the 4th line is a waste...he's more a offensive type player. Some players are not fit for checking and grinding, after watching Hoglund I would think on the 2nd/3rd line would be a better fit for Maine and #26.

                          This rigid game plan of dump and chase is driving me nuts.

                          Where has Fossier been? Hurt? Or just benched. Seems he hasnt been effective since he took a hard run in with the boards a while ago. Lowell or vermont game?

                            Fossier is hurt.

                            The weekend went like we thought. They simply arent as good as other HE teams. Pearson had another goal, that's nice. I guess Robbins scored on penalty shot ( that's a real shocker). 11 or 12th place, about where most thought. Sucks

                              For sure. I thought 10 wins at the beginning of the season, then became a little more optimistic and thought 50% could happen. Just dilusional. No more wins this season is very likely.

                                Glad I didn't buy into 50% They might win another game then again Unless they do it in the playoffs who cares. FORE!

                                The best we can hope for is a UNH Maine playoff series, most likely lose that also
