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

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.

I wasn’t wild about them trying to get an ENG from within their own zone and icing the puck. I think they did it last night too and Colgate made them pay tonight.

We’ve been spoiled with great goaltending during Norm’s tenure, but a sub .900 SV% for the team just isn’t going to cut it in Hockey East.

10 wins might be a stretch at this point.

Well, looks like my honesty's finally starting to catch up with other people. Norm, his time is up. Sad to say, again.

At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if half or more entered the portal. The program continues circling the drain with no end in sight and complete inaction from the administration.

Scott were are u I know you're reading this. Give us some information about Coach's extension again.

This. Our system is not working... I am happy with the skill we have... but if Norm doesn't make adjustments, I am in the camp for him to go. I have seen enough.

@WxManScott @RiverHawkHockey Dowd no longer listed on the website or roster. Did he quit?

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 earlier this year, up in Burlington. Maine hosts Albany in the other semifinal (and Lowell beat both of those teams already this year).

Men's Basketball starts up tonight, with their annual drubbing of Rivier. Probably the most talented D1 team we've ever had, so at least there's that to look forward to.
