    UMass Lowell 2026-2027: Is this the new Norm?

    How can I, as a lay person see this? How can other teams see this? And yet, there's just no change at all?

    I don't think anyone questions Helly's regular season play. The question mark has consistently been how he does in the playoffs.

    He's been the better of the two we have, but honestly that's not saying much. 2.95 GAA, 87.1% save rate. Bazin hasn't given him a start in league play yet, which considering Elliott is 0-4 with a 4.92 and 86.7% is ... strange.

    Dead last in the Hockey East standings. The only team that has as few wins (including non-conf games) as Lowell is BC ,who have played one less game. Dead last in HE play in GPG, tied for 9th in GA per game. Tied for 8th in GPG (when you include non-conference games), and 10th in GA per game...

    If nothing else (because I'm a sucker), I was at least entertained watching last night's loss. So ... you know, there's that.

    I'm glad I decided not to go ... sadly still watched on TV till we gave up the third goal and decided there are so many better things to do with my Friday night.

    Appreciate it. No real surprises in the article. I've noted it on here for a few years that I'd rather have a woman's program than the lacrosse programs (TBF, I like hockey better).

    UMass Lowell 2026-2027: Is this the new Norm?

    I can't read the article, but the Globe has a piece basically saying if we're the state of hockey, why doesn't Lowell or Amherst have a woman's program.

    Interestingly, the Colgate TV guy talked about the players that have left the Lowell program and noted how well they're doing elsewhere. Take that FWIW.

    UMass Lowell 2026-2027: Is this the new Norm?

    As I look forward to finding anything else to do other than go on Friday night ... on a different note, while the hockey team circles the drain ... the field hockey team goes into the AE playoffs as the 1 seed and will host #5 Vermont Tuesday in the semifinals. Vermont already beat Lowell 1-0...

    Barry Scanlon's hockey notes for the week are up on the Lowell Sun. My biggest takeaway is help is on the way for the defense, as they expect Mathurin to play for the first time this year.

    Yeah, there are going to be nights when the goalies steal one ... but the other side of that is you need yours to do the same.

    UMass Lowell 2026-2027: Is this the new Norm?

    We had played the teams that were picked 9th in the NCHC (ASU), 4th and 10th in the ECAC (Clarkson and St. Lawrence) and wound up a whopping 1-3 at home against those teams. Then we played a real team and got smoked twice. Twice this year we've been down 3-0 in the first period ... which means...

    UMass Lowell 2026-2027: Is this the new Norm?

    I agree with most of your post and many of us have been saying this the past few years. But where I'll disagree is your comment that it's not the talent. I think because of how we play (as you noted), offensively skilled recruits won't come here. We aren't getting those guys that we can expect...
