Re: UML '09/'10 Season Thread

It would be nice to get at least 4,000 for each game. The turnout for UMA last week was disappointing.

Agreed. I know the snow didn't help, but it wasn't that bad at that point. I know I spoke with some students who said their friends didn't want to walk over in that weather.

It was a disappointing turnout but on the other hand it was a lively student section with those idiots from Amherst standing and chanting most of the game.

The "warm up the bus", "why are you standing" and "Lowell is better" chants from the students were excellent.

The best thing about Tsongas is that the acoustics are phenomenal.

i can see that from smith/eames... that bridge can be downright frightening in rough weather... and there's the rubber bit mid-way through that's absolutelyfreakingslippery.

If its from Fox/Donahue/Leitch/Bougerious(sp?) then you're just a freaking wimp. Those snow monsters are awfully dangerous, aren't they.

Did you expect us to sit and be quiet the whole game? The idiots from Lowell stood and cheered the whole game. It's what idiots do.

a win tonight paired with official ESPN recognition on ESPN's iphone scoreboard app... ok, they just added our logo... every step counts

Well I did hear swearing, and so I knew Amherst had fans at the game.

Of course, then they all seemed to disappear ...

Another good ho-hum kinda win last night. That Princeton power play is really bad.

And voting for player of the game is now open.

Yes, it wasn't pretty at times but it's nice to get win #10. Hopefully the Hawks come out and take care of business this afternoon. They need to cut down on the penalties. For the second game in a row they have played a good portion of a period shorthanded.

For a team that came into the game averaging 9.2 penalty minutes per game (best in HE), they doubled that number yesterday. Not a good thing.

Could the Lowell fan who shouted at Wright to "shake it off" please meet me outside after the game? I just need to stop off at my car to stash my camera gear and retrieve a tire iron. Thanks.

(This isn't because it was Wright or a Lowell player. The same offer would stand if a fan from my least favorite active D1 player's team yelled that at him. Not excusing it from an opposing fan, just that much worse from your own fan.)

Unfortunately, this team continues to underachieve. Let's hope they come back real strong in the 2nd half for the remainder of the HE season.

it sounded like a hell of a period... but one period of playing like #5 doesn't make up for 2 periods of playing like #30 and #20.

Re: UML '09/'10 Season Thread

Well it was a tough loss and I know we didn't play to our potential, but I think we saw a ton of positives in that third period. Hamilton was not exactly on his game and Kalemba absolutely was (thank god they didn't start him both games). Anyway let's stay positive. Slumps really suck but if this is the equivilent of last years slump, then we should be in pretty good shape.

I'm trying to stay positive, but this team needs to wake up. After only going 2-4 in their last 6 games they have yet to figure out they need to come to play every night. I hate to say it, but 10-6-1 at the break is disappointing.

Congrats to Princeton on a nice win. The Tigers worked hard for 60 minutes today.
