Re: HE Preseason #1 vs #2 ... Lowell vs BC (10/26 and 10/28)
Interest stat there for UML. It seems every time I consider the quick trip to Tsongas lately, I end up not going and usually end up happy I didn't pay to see a disappointing result. I believe BC is 2-3-0 in their last 5 at Tsongas.
BC's ability to win on the road is going to come down to 2 things. 1 is obvious - need to pump in some PPGs. The other hinges on the 2nd line. Hayes/Straight/Arnold can be very formidable when get going. On the road teams will match up lines to try to take out the Gaudreau line. Of course this point isn't as big of a deal if they can't shut down the Gaudreau line.
I need to see the consistency from that 2nd line before I feel comfortable going into just about any road game.
I personally see a split with each home team taking the 2 points. Wilson will probably have a HT gamewinner on Friday night now that I jinxed it.
