    Forgot about how the players would sometimes just level him, ignoring the puck. That was funny to see.
    Spoiled brat who didn't get his way so screwed the program. No bitterness here

      My weekend wish list:
      Riverhawks beat UMA 25 pts.
      BU loses 2 vs UNH 24 pts.
      PC sweeps ND 26 & 23 pts.
      BC sweeps VT 31 & 20 pts.
      This all means Lowell just needs 1 point in the final weekend to clinch a playoff bye.
      I know that these exact results are slim to none, so I mainly hope the Riverhawks just play well at Amherst
      and bring it vs BC the way we know they can and we will be in great shape for postseason.

        I'd prefer bc and UVM split, just for the slim chance at the reg season title

          Sounds good. This is from the HE weekend preview -

              That's my feeling exactly. Just take care of business.

              Who's heading to Amherst Saturday night?

                That's a given. Last weekend's Amherst game was nerve wracking so hopefully they won't make it hard on themselves, pulling one of their classic lack of urgency/playing down to opponent games, looking beyond to the huge BC series.

                  I'll pass. Went there for my first and only game about 15 years ago and vowed never to back. The most horrible, vile fan experience ever. Might make the trip to BC though next Thursday night.

                    My wish list next week may call for 1st place. I find it hard to believe that 1st place BC is actually on the outside looking in on the NCAAS right now. #15 in the pairwise with 2 automatic bids lower. VT is #16 so those to have a lot on the line this weekend.
                    Question: is Lowell better off facing a desperate BC squad in the final week or one that is more comfortably placed leaguewise and pairwise?

                      Even if bc sweeps UVM they'll still be desparate. I'll be rooting for whatever situation best suits lowell, and right now the 1 seed feels best.

                      Unless uconn finishes 8. UConn and MC scare me in the second round

                        This. The place was like a mausoleum- mostly empty with fans that were a cross between comatose and prided themselves in being completely obnoxious for no reason. No desire to repeat. That and my money, paid in fees to build a parking garage, was shanghai-ed when the merged into the University system. Instead of the parking garage they promised us they absorbed it into the 'system' and built the Mullins Mausoleum. Still a wee bit bitter.... (and showing my age bracket)

                              Both games against UMass haven't been easy this year. I'd love a nice 8-1 win, but Carvel's at least got his kids playing hard against us.

                              Must win tomorrow night, I won't worry about next week till next week.

                              And I agree with you all ... I haven't been out to ZooMass in a while. Their fans are rude, vile and their chants aren't even creative when they come at us. Hell, I could do better (and I wish OUR student section would do the same).
