University of Maine 2024–2025: Freel-ing good

I expect a war. Home crowd for Penn State and they were the hottest team down the stretch in BIG10 going 13-4-4 since January. Maine has last change, which should help when it comes to matching against the Fink line. Maine is 12-4-4 since January and won the hockey East championship. So this is a heckuva match up. I hope Maine brings it heavy for the full 60 and makes it hell on Penn State defensemen on the boards and at the net front. Wanna see Freel and Makar in front of their goalie every shift.

I still expect Maine fans to be there in Force. The first game may be completely empty.

Having a look at tickets for st louis before the resale market kicks in after this weekend. On the enterprise ctr site it looks like its all resale at this point. Their resale prices are up there.

Do you think the venue is holding some back until the four teams are set, for release to the 4 teams?

Definitely some being held back right now

Yeah, what the hell is it with your guys sometimes? All that talent, all that stupidity. Rumor has it you end up with the dregs that BC doesn't want ? :ROFLMAO:

I think that Kaplan is most of the issue. Guy just looks for trouble every shift and if he can’t find it he is usually the first on his line to look to get off the ice.

Lets just hope Penn State peaked too early down the stretch and Maine comes out flying tonight.
 
Here are some very legit stats that prove Maine will win:
- Big 10 is 0-3 in the NCAAs (and 0-2 vs Hockey East)
- The easternmost team went 4-0 in games yesterday. Maine is THE easternmost team in college hockey.
- Maine has literally never lost to Penn State
- Maine is undefeated against common opponents (2-0). PSU has ZERO wins (0-1)

Bingo. If I'm coach I sit 'em Saturday. He can't control himself and he hurts the team.

Every game yesterday was won by the team that had to travel further. Good news for BC, Denver, Maine, and UConn.

Did all the BC fans get lost on their way to Manchester or is it "Dress up as an empty seat Day"?

Don't know the numbers yet, but the announcers say there are a lot of Bentley fans there, and I see they are all wearing dark blue which won't show up on TV. I don't know that BC fans are that invested in this. I saw a guy at the grocery store this afternoon with a BC hat and said, "Big game today!" and he had no clue what I was talking about.

I guarantee the birds will win this game.
