Madore stepped it up big time. Sneddon made an incredible series adjustment after game one, and the team executed the plan to perfection. Block shots, clog the shooting lanes, and keep most of unh's shots to the outside. Phenomenal effort and series win.

No, actually you're not. Bemidji got upset in the CHA playoffs. They're definitely making the NCAAs as an at large. So three teams are coming from the two "minor" conferences. So you're actually first one out.

How do you get first one out? UAH, (and let's say RIT) that's 16 and 15. If there are no other upsets that leaves 14 as the entry point. That said if UVM loses to BC I don't see how they can get in . They MUST beat BC or they are done..

The way I see it, even if UVM loses to BC, as long as BC wins HE, Cornell wins ECAC, Denver wins WCHA and Miami wins CCHA, cats will be in at 11 with a 3 seed. Hope they just knock off the superfans and that will solve it all... Would love to see a Maine VT final...

I cannot think of a more successful weekend for Vermont collegiate sports. Both UVM basketball teams in the dance, UVM hockey to the Garden, both Norwich mens and womens hockey teams to the d3 frozen four. Guess I'll be heading to the Garden next weekend.

Congrats Vermont on gutting out two huge wins on the road (after only winning 2 games in that building all time, I believe?) and making it to the semis. Best of luck moving forward!

If that was UNH's last game and I do hope its not I feel bad for the Seniors who to play their last game in front of what might have been the smallest crowd they had in their careers. Was something else big going on in Durham last night? I went to both reg season games and the place was full.

No, people down here are just ****ing spoiled fair weather fans who didn't want to spend the money to watch their team play one more time. Too many UNH fans still assume too much about the quarterfinals.

Congrats on a big win.

Congratulations, Vermont. Kudos to the team, coaching staff, and fans.

Thanks UNH fans. I hope you are able to sneak into the NCAAs.

There is a decent chance that Hockey East could end up with one team in the NCAAs?

Re: 2009-2010 Official Vermont Season Thread : The Sequel

Congrats to Coach Sneddon and the coaching staff, the support staff, and especially, the UVM hockey faithful. They did what they needed to do when visiting UNH, and that is NOT to let them throw that fish on the ice!!!!!!

Good luck in the Hockey East Tournament!

As mentioned on the attendance thread, Quarterfinals are always poorly attended (For the first 2 games, UNH still had the most fans in the 4 hockey east games). The combination of a 3rd game in 3 nights, and awful weather (we almost got blown off the highway driving back home). It was the fewest fans in a home game, but when you play lots of games in Providence and Merrimack, it wasn't the smallest crowd in their career...

Another note, I really enjoyed coach Sneddon applauding the UVM section several times before they left the ice, he seems like a really good dude on top of a great coach.
