    If we look at the SOS Lowell sits at 33, pretty easy schedule so far, nothing to bragging about yet. Vermont May have some extRa home games along with the 5th toughest schedule in the league. It is good that we both took out of conference games to help boost Hockey East. Have fun with this.

      Good point. And if UML was so dominant I wonder why their goal differential was not greater. Perceive what you want, UVM is a good team with additional upside in my opinion.

        Like you where when you played a AHA team at home?

        Yea we know how tough they are. At least we didnt embarrass HE like you did.

          So *** Funny

          I bet you had a whole different post ready to go before Fallon scored. I'm sure you
          would have had a whole different attitute and it wouldnt have anything to do with schedule.

          UML had the best spot in the tourney so dont go crying. You played the same 2 teams
          as Vermont and got Clarkson on shorter rest. And truthfully it would have been a shame if
          Fallon didnt score and UML won the tourney because of a EN goal.

          By the way was it you in the UML jersey riding the zamboni last night, you know the guy with
          the beard. Usually they only let kids ride but you seem to have the same maturity level so...

            Two more nice wins by the Cats, hopefully they can keep it up in the new year.

            Just put PatronDick on ignore.

              now if the Cats would just start to take care of business in conference. I see PC/BC/UML taking the first three HE spots followed by a battle between everyone but Mass and Merrimack for the balance. Cats have outplayed three opponents three times and come up empty, that needs to stop. I'm far more confident with Hoffman in net than Santa. I like Santa but he's too small.

                I for one feel bad for UMass-Lowell. Not only do they have to live in a city so utterly miserable, their fans have nothing better to do than go online and taunt others, they can't even win enough to make those fans happy. It's sad. Now, I for one am going skiing.

                  Thats the problem, they can't go skiing.

                      Vermont 2008-09 overall: 22-12-5
                      Lowell 2012-13 overall: 28-11-2

                      But go ahead, keep convincing yourself that those seasons are similar.
                      They are extremely similar. Conference championships mean jack s*it (except earning the last four spots in the tournament of 16). PLENTY of times the BEST teams have NOT won their respective conferences, and gone on to wreck havoc in the NCAA tournament. Your fallacious argument has been debunked.

                        Thought that to myself a number of times....UML fans are filled with delusional thoughts, so any rational explanation backed by data won't accomplish anything. Not worth your time, man. It's worse than talking to a wall. It's like arguing with a wall with special needs.

                          They can't go skiing or do anything like that because they live in a cesspool. I lived in lowell for a couple of years. What an utter s*ithole. Seriously, Troy NY is the only shi**ier place to be.

                            There are at least ten teams that are better and more intimidating than "your" lowell squad. For some reason I'm not shaking in my little boots ;-)

                              I got a good laugh out of that one.....

                              I think this has been discussed before but why is the Catamount Cup not in the standard format of Winner plays Winner for the title and has it always been this way? I don't like this format. I would have rather pasted Lowell for the title than just outscore them in the overall tournament.

                                The "Catamount Cup" may have always been this way... not sure, but back when it was sponsored by TD it was actual tournament format. I believe the reason they did it this way was so that you don't have in-league teams playing each other, and taking away the opportunity for an OOC game. At this point with the new leagues and expanded OOC schedule it's not really necessary anymore.

                                I agree, winners should play winners.
