UMass Lowell 2021-2022: Which way are we going?

[Darius]

Most importantly did anyone else notice that the Sal's stand has gone from serving their Huge double slice for $9 to selling a traditional single slice for $5? Love the Tsongas but concession prices have gotten sky high.

What!?!

Who's coming up to Portland at the Cross Insurance Arena on 11/27 for the 5 pm game vs. UMaine? Plenty of tickets left if you go to Ticketmaster you can view the available seats. Lots of bars/restaurants for pregame fun. I have been a UMaine fan ever since the program has been in existence, but my son graduated with his Masters from UMass Lowell last Spring (great school) and I would venture down to the Tsongas a couple of times per year to watch the Riverhawks play. So I am big Riverhawk fan too!

I believe there's a large group going. I haven't quite decided yet though.

Didn't expect this team to be in third place at this point this year in Hockey East (and first in Points Per Game). The one part that's been bugging me is that Savory has allowed 1 goal in his last three starts. And he lost that game. If they can somehow get their offense to start finding the net more, this could become a really interesting season.

I was telling someone the same thing Monty. Goals have been hard to come by the past couple of games. It was nice to see some scoring from some other players in Maine (Wells, Brushett). Hopefully more players can start finding the net. They also need to get the PP going.

Only four games left before the break. Hopefully the team is healthy going into this weekend against UMA. Kaiser, Meehan and Engum didn't play in Maine. Engum, who has looked very good, has missed the last three games.

Hopefully they spent all week working on their abysmal power play. And it seems like if Lee isn't scoring, no one is. Good test this weekend. Hoping for at least 4 points.

ps. Good luck to the Revs tonight. Going to be cold, make sure you're well lubed up for the match!

Thanks. Got some good cold weather gear, and some beers. So I'm ready.

The injury bug has hit UMA.

Nathan Strauss @NathanPStrauss
Carvel says that UMass does not have enough bodies to fill out a full lineup. Ty Farmer and Linden Alger will both be skating as forwards, with no extra skater available.
Says he believes this team can still win games if the back end plays to their full potential.

Just moved here from South Jersey and looking forward to tonight's game. Will the game sellout?

Welcome. I highly doubt it will. Hopefully it will be a good sized crowd.

Welcome. I highly doubt it will. Hopefully it will be a good sized crowd.

It's not a sellout (yet), but attendance should be over 5500. With walkup sales, it could become a sellout with Standing Room tickets being sold.

[hobeydog]

Thanks to both of you! I'm excited. This really is hockey heaven up here!
