Re: UConn 2014-2015: Let the Hockey East Era Begin
Good first period, but the second was pathetic. They were dominated for the whole period. That set the tone for the rest of the game. Doing my best to simmer expectations, as we have been pleasantly surprised to date. Those were two big league points, but "we're on to BC".

Re: UConn 2014-2015: Let the Hockey East Era Begin
Well, tonight should be interesting. No reason that the Huskies cannot give BC one helluva game again.
Btw, did we get to a new century again so quick? I mean ... Yale and Union are the last two NC$$ champions, and now MANKATO is ranked number 1??? I am thinking UConn might contend by the end of the decade if this kind of can happen. I remember watching Mankato play as a D-2 in Anchorage in the 90's. (Out on the concourses between periods, in addition to beer you could get whiskey and other hard liquor.) That's more progress than Union made in a shorter amount of time. It is a new day, I guess.

Originally posted by RSTuthill View PostAlmost tied it up at the end. I am sure the Huskies are not satisfied, but it definitely was a good effort. Looking forward to this week if they do not postpone.
The silver lining is that their effort, goal-tending and team defense have been the keys to their competitiveness.
A split this weekend is necessary, anything more than 2 points would be a great weekend.

The team is now in position to make this a great weekend. Hopefully the XL will be packed and loud Sunday, with the consistent effort these guys give night in and night out, they deserve it.

Originally posted by RSTuthill View PostHaven't been able to get to many games this year, but I am definitely gonna be there for this. The perfect thing just before the Super Bowl. Section 124 row S seats 5 & 6 (bottom of the short aisle, where a Whalers GM used to sit). A chance for the Huskies to make history with their first HE weekend sweep. And to get to 0.500 at a point more than half way through the season.

Re: UConn 2014-2015: Let the Hockey East Era Begin
Well ... like kissing your sister. But let's be realistic, 3 points on the weekend is something we will take. All those who predicted this at the start of the season please stand up. [Just what I thought, nobody.] One helluva hockey game. Very evenly matched teams although I thought the Grade A's were slightly in UConn's favor. The Huskies have got some guys who can really dangle with the puck. But UConn was very very lucky to have that last goal against called back with 21 seconds left in regulation.
On to the next leg of journey: Providence at the XL on Wednesday. That will be a challenge.Last edited by RSTuthill; 02-01-2015, 04:09 PM.
