UNH 2026-27 Season Let's Go 'Cats!

[HockeyRef]

After a sluggish start UNH puts together a decent 2nd and 3rd getting 3 much needed HE points. Ring and Johnson 2 pt nights and Simpsin with the shutout and..an. assist!
Do it again 'Cats!!

Missed today’s game as we had a number of friends over. Glad to hear it was a good night for the ‘Cats. Gotta bring it again tomorrow!

Also glad to see two of the goals were even strength! Need a lot more of that!

The Wildcats turned in a strong performance last night, and I suspect their talent level will be sufficient to overcome occasional shortcomings in preparation and in-game adjustments. That said, tonight represents an important early-season test.

Securing Hockey East points this early is always valuable. A victory tonight would likely elevate UNH into the Top 20 of the NPI rankings, which, while not especially meaningful at this stage of the season, is nonetheless an encouraging indicator of progress.

It was also nice to see VanTassell record his first goal. Vass has been impressive. Simpson is rock solid. Gotta give MS7 some credit for establishing the Ring-Johnson-Guite line early. They are a force. I'm still curious whether Fitzy factors back into the lineup at some point.

Go Cats!

Am encouraged we have been scoring some even strength goals. Let's hope for a sweep tonight! Go 'Catttsssss!
Any news on Fitzy?

Agree it will be a big test...and agree on your top line assessment. Hope the team brings it big with the home ice crowd!

He was still in the boot last night at the game. Sounds like another 2-3 weeks for the sprain.

I googled the rule, 55. The AI results are torn on if a penalty shot was warranted. AI thinks it needed to be a break away or clear possession that was an scoring threat. Otherwise 2 min minor IF an intentional act.

I haven't gone back to the video but I didn't catch the broken stick part at all and the play was on the boards in the corner....

What additionally frustrates me was the (UVM) announcers noting that the faceoff after the penalty shot goal was delayed as Souza wanted an explanation.... Ummm seems a bit late, you have the fit (throw sticks, water bottles, stand on dashers) BEFORE the penalty shot happens

Typical MS7 ... day late, dollar short.

Probably can throw that criticism at myself here, as I'm playing catch-up after a week away in sunny FLA
