          In Drew Bonifant's article, Coach Umile says Greg Burke's "not close (to coming back)."
          A really sad situation. He always gave the Wildcats 100%.

            Truly. Hard to imagine what he and his family must be going through. This is not where they expected to be 4 years after he entered UNH. At this point just leading a healthy and productive life might be a win for him.
            I will not be out cheered in my own building.

              I hope and expect he'll be able to participate in Senior Night tomorrow. He's hard a tough 4 years here at UNH, which is unfortunate indeed: he played 32 games as a freshman, 18 as a sophomore, 34 as a junior and just 13 as a senior. And since he grew up just a town away from Durham, I'm sure it's especially difficult to finish his collegiate career injured, as he has been (assuming of course the effects of his concussion don't allow him to play anymore this season.) I always enjoyed watching him play, and hope that he is able to return to the ice at some level very soon. And most of all, I thank him (and the rest of the seniors) for their 4 years at UNH, and wish each good health and a satisfying career, whatever and wherever that may be.

                Tough to hear about Burke. Always liked that kid.

                In the interest of speaking a different discussion - there's a thread going around about "worst jerseys ever."

                Personally, I'd love to see UNH create a new, third jersey, incorporating the "old wildcat"; with a color scheme and style similar to what the women's team wears.

                  Apparently there are still student tickets available, which is not the norm for a Maine game, so we'll see how it goes...

                      Actually with a Vermont loss tomorrow and a Maine win, Maine would move up to the 7th seed. UNH is playing for home ice at this point so both teams have a lot to play for tomorrow.

                        Maine was playing for a spot, they got it...7 or 8 makes no difference.

                          Not huge but its a matter of playing the 1 or 2 seed in the playoffs. Im sure moving up a spot will be plenty of motivation. Lets hope UNH shows up tomorrow.

                            Giving up the first goal of the game has been UNH's nemesis in the second half of the season. Sucked to see them give up the shorthanded goal to give Maine a 1-0 lead. Goumas was so intent on chasing the puck that he forgot to cover his half of the ice. Another instance of an opposing player coming off the bench, sneaking into the UNH zone uncovered, and scoring an easy goal. Last time it happened was at Providence in the 1-0 loss on Feb. 13th.

                            Only way to guarantee home-ice in the Quarterfinals is to win on Saturday afternoon. Most bizarre possible outcome - Lowell and Providence tie on Saturday and UNH wins, resulting in a 3-way tie for the Regular Season Title (according to Jim Connelly of USCHO).

                              I believe its actually possible to have a 4 way tie for first.

                                Yes, if BC and UNH win and Lowell-Providence ties = 4-way tie for Title. Surreal.
