Scotti has been solid, and Chistie and Hussar do not look out of place at all, and Bahe is getting some ice time. Big game coming up Friday night against BU.
    FYP. Sorry, I am totally looking forward to my pre-game fribble at Friendlys.

            @MikeMcMahonET: Yes, it's true. My "position was eliminated" at the Eagle Tribune this morning. Found out at about 9am...
            Some bad news, Mike McMahon apparently is no longer with the ET. Here's hoping that he finds a great position elsewhere and that he or someone else can carry on the tradition of providing us with high-quality coverage of MC and general NCAA hockey.

                Very sad news, one of the best guys going in the game.

                  Ditto. Best of luck to a "double MC" guy. Hope he lands on his feet and keeps "The Mack Report" going,

                    Tough weekend. BU game was reasonably solid. Carried a lot of the play, but certainly did not dominate. O'Connor was excellent in the net for the Terriers, and he is huge! A cleaner matchup than usual. Losing to UConn? YUCK. Bartus is solid, but still a very disappointing loss.

                      I did not watch saturday, but as the HEA wrapup on the front page mentions, a loss to UConn puts MC in a potentially bad pairwise hole. It's hard to be optimistic heading into Chestnut Hill Friday, but they at least seem to show up and play hard against more heralded teams.

                        Watching both games last weekend, we learned that this team is very inconsistent. Watching UConn reminded me of Merrimack the last few years, outworking teams. Although I do not see Merrimack beating BC tonight I feel like the game will be close and a similar outcome to the BU game. As for pairwise, I never even took that into consideration coming into the year. Merrimack's goal should be to finish in the top eight in conference this year and then you never know what is going to happen.

                          I couldn't help by think back a bunch of years to Dennis Green after the Cardinals had a big lead only to blow it to the Bears (I think it was the Bears) that lead to his unforgettable speech..."They are who we thought they were...and we let them off the hook". After scoring 3 goals in the first 6 minutes of the 2nd period against BC to take a 3-0 lead, only to lose it at the end of that period, made me want to stand up and recite his whole speech...word for word...that could end up being a CRUSHING defeat in the end as we had arguably the best team I've seen in my 20+ years of college hockey (28-1 in their last 29 stretching back to last January) against the ropes only to let them off the ropes, take a few jabs and then get knocked out in the 3rd round. Ouch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWmQbk5h86w
                          As everyone knows... there was a crisis, as Justin (MCHOCKEY) went AWOL 4 minutes into the first game... and thankfully he wandered his way to the meet and greet in one piece... listening to Mike (Warrior51) tell this story was *** hilarious...

                          -Redman after the first night of the HE Tournament(2004).

                            Another tie against Colgate in what was a tough close game. Playing Providence this weekend will be important for the outcome of the season. IMO a split is necessary and hopefully the Warriors can take more.

                                I am actually going to Saturday nights game. Before Merrimack made the NCAAs 2 years ago the only non Mass rink I visited was UNH with a buddy whose twin went to UNH. Really excited to see a new barn.
