The Barr Has Been Raised at UMaine

Slow ice can really make a good game not so good. I hope not, but expect Maine to be short handed this period as the Refs get the stats “evened up”.

You hit the nail on the head with that one. Lucky not to have a 5 min on the last one. Played a good road game and potentially could blow it by not being disciplined.

No way they can conclusively say that was a goal.

Great save by Ostman.

Man this guy on the call isnt too bright

[NorthMike]

Pheww no goal. Great save. Got a point!
Just a pt is awesome now three on three.
Maine normally does pretty good 3 on 3.

Thats a save for books, wow. Too many icings and no line change for the last minute

[tylerzx2002]

What an insane save Ostman made at the end of regulation.

Their tough to listen to.

LOL. That's USCHO's own Jimmy Connelly.

Take the tie and on to UNH

Kind of a frustrating ending, but Maine was the better team in this game, and they improved as they went along. A point is better than no points.

I was sitting just behind the goal when Ostman made that stop at the end of regulation. I knew right away that he had kept it out, but it was no doubt an incredible stop.

Maine is six points behind Providence with two games in hand. The Black Bears play six games against teams ranked lower than them. The Friars have home-and-home series with Lowell and BU to wrap up the season.

That explains it.

Thought Maine didnt have a lot of jump today. But...a point is a point. Move along, nothing to see here.

Both teams play a similar style game. I wouldn't say that Maine was the better team. Attack the puck, active sticks and block shots. I was surprised Ostman allowed three goals on three shots in the shootout. I would have thought he would stop at least one.

That is one of the signs IMO that the team is truly on the rise. If you can scrape out points when you don’t play your best game, that’s positive. In years past if they didn’t bring their A game they didn’t have a chance to win games.
