    UNH Hockey: From "Why Not Us' to "Woe is Us"

      Is anybody bothering to go to the UNH v. Dartmouth game tomorrow? Too lazy to look . . . who's the home team?

      Only reasons I'm going:
      A) Working.
      B) Got hooked up with box seats; TV in suite for Patriots game.
      I haven't been on here in a year...
      Now I'm a dad. Holy crap.

        I"ll be heading to the game tomorrow and am looking forward to it! Also, UNH is the home team this year.

              Exactly. Just in time for the Pats to take the lead and put the game away

                With a matchup between 2 teams that work best late in the game, maybe the first half will just be a campfire and massage circle at the 50 yard.

                  Seems like Scott will never get a shot even if the team believes he can turn the team around.

                    seems like this guy must be related or is tyler scott with all three of his posts in reference to tyler scott.

                    would like to see him get a chance as well though

                      Thats your deduction based on Wildcat13 and CHC discussing a goaltending prospect who would likely arrive TWO seasons after Scott graduates? I hate to burst your bubble, but if Scott was the best option in his first three seasons he would have played. Funny thing about coaches - they like to win. And in an effort to win, they'll put their best and hardest-working players on the ice. I know, I know its a crazy theory! People close to Scott (you) may be upset that he is going to wrap up his career with little playing time. I can understand that, but its simplistic and petty to blame the coaching staff.

                      I'll assume Scott worked his tail off, meaning he hasn't played because he has simply never been the best goalie at UNH. He wasn't better than Foster and Digi had a 2010-11 season that you can't argue. He may be the best this season (I don't watch practices) but I doubt it. If he was, he wouldn't be the 4th goalie. I'm not buying that Scott is the difference in this team sitting at 7-11-2 (5-8-1) instead of say 11-7-2 (8-5-1). Digi was bad early, but DeSmith has played well and until the Providence game it still wasn't enough. The goaltending has been FAR from the only problem plauging this team.

                      With the team fighting for the play-off lives and NCAA dreams hanging by a thread (if at all), Umile's going to play the best goalie period. Maybe Scott/DeSmith are even? Unfortunately for the SR Scott you have to go with DeSmith in that case because of the long-term benefits into next season and beyond. That is just the way college sports work.

                      I don't ever remember hearing or reading anything that would lead me to believe Scott was brought to UNH to compete for anything more than a back-up position. If he had earned that spot or more we would have seen him on the ice. The article you posted earlier is such an awful source. That read like a blog discussing another player entirely and sneaking in a shout-out to a kid from his town.

                        Cats win 2 straight, Moses is on fire. Anyone know why Henrion was not dressed against Dartmouth?

                          Glad to see Moses get some goals - he deserves them; however, it worries me that he has had to carry us to our last two victories.

                          Additionally, I'd like to see the McCarey, Borisenok, Thrush line reunited. All three of them stacked up the majority of their points during their time together.

                              Nice to see UNH get a couple W's back to back. Moses needs to learn how to finish though I'm just sayin'

                                I don't have any stats in front of me but I'd be willing to bet that Moses has taken more shots this year than any other UNH player and I'd be willing to bet that, among the forwards, he has one of the lower shooting percentages. Moses is a very talented player, he has speed, he has puck handling skills, and he knows how to get open. But . . . he does have trouble putting the puck in the net. Moses has 16 goals this year, half of them in four goal games against UAH and Dartmouth. First to have two four goal games in a season since Jacob Micflikier a few years back btw. Let's just hope that his recent production translates to good games the next two weekends vs. Merrimack and BC!
