    Hopefully somebody who knows what they're doing on the beer and food side reopens the space. I've had minor regrets about never having anything from what was there before. Maybe navigation can up their game and team up with something pizza related or something else new altogether.

    In better news. The hockey gloves I won in an auction came and they fit nicely and in time for broomball to restart locally

    UMass Lowell nets commitment from Czech Republic F Theodor Pistek. Pistek has played the last five seasons in Sweden. Has represented the Czech Republic in 29 international games. 6-0, 187-pound skater. Wraps up incoming freshman class.

    Theodor Pistek - Elite Prospects

    I believe the current roster is at 30 (19 F, 8 D, 3 G)

    When they shut down, fired their entire staff (and then told them they'd have to reapply) and changed their menu, they completely fell apart. Their food when the reopened (food truck type menu) was awful. Their beer selection had been good prior to their original shutting down and then was horrid when they reopened.

    This isn't the least bit surprising.

    Honestly not surprised. Their beer quality never kept up with the times. And I don't mean just not hopping on the ipa sour train but more all of the above.

    Kind of disappointed because as a latecomer to beer their stuff was a good push beyond the supermarket regular stuff.

    I'd consider it hockey related. The program's recent success started with Marty Meehan and I don't think that was just a coincidence. Support from the top is huge. If Marty was still here pushing things, would there be a new practice rink/facility adjacent to Tsongas? I guess we'll never know.

    Tons of change this offseason and I don't love the way things are trending with the program.

    Foreign flavor

    UMass Lowell’s 2021-22 hockey roster will have a heavy European flavor.

    Defenseman Marek Korencik is from Slovakia. Hailing from Sweden are forwards Carl Berglund and Andre Lee, incoming defenseman Isac Jonsson, and incoming goaltender Edvard Nordlund.

    Word on the street is the River Hawks may be bringing in another European skater, pending NCAA approval. The player, if granted his eligibility, comes from a country which has never produced a UMass Lowell player.

    The player would likely wrap up UML’s incoming freshman class. Stay tuned.
    any update on this?

    The ice is going in at the Tsongas.

    They usually have the entire team in for the golf tournament, which is next Friday.
