UML 2019/2020: Underclassmen Reign

Re: UML 2019/2020: Underclassmen Reign

I noticed that the official hockey twitter account was been making a point to retweet WUML's posts about their game broadcasts this weekend.

I don't know what WCAP's deal is but last time I tried to listen (via the TuneIn Radio app) the game was not on. I believe this was the @UNH game.

Yeah, I am surprised to hear gochiefs say they heard the postgame. Maybe I tuned in during a long commercial break, but it definitely sounded like different programming to me. I guess I am so used to WCAP ending the post game early, or not broadcasting at all, that I gave up too soon.

7 games left in the regular season for Lowell.

As we are currently in second, we have 5 games against teams below us, and 2 against first place UMass. Friday night home and Saturday away against NU this upcoming weekend, UMass next weekend and UNH the following. One final game against UConn at home to end the season in March.

Just looking forward a bit to the first tie-breaker against those competing for home ice:
UMass, we haven't played yet
BC 1-1-0
Maine 1-0-1
BU 0-1-2
UNH, we haven't played yet
UConn 0-1-1
PC 2-1-0
NU, we haven't played yet
MC 3-0-0

Lowell has moved up to #11 in the PWR, one of 5 Hockey East teams in the current Top 16. BC is 6, UMass 7, NU 12 and PC 16. Since we play UMass and NU the next two weekends, this could be huge for the PWR for Lowell.

Going to be a fun next four weeks, I hope.

Going a bit further, Lowell has by far the toughest schedule going forward. The other teams have the following:

UMA: @/vs Lowell, @/vs UConn, vs UVM
BC: vs/2 @ Mack, @/vs NU, @ BU, vs/@ UNH
Maine: 2vs UConn, 2vs UVM, vs/@ PC
BU: @/vs UNH, @/vs UConn, vs BC, @/vs NU
UNH: vs/@BU, @/vs Lowell, @/vs BC
UConn: 2 @ Maine, vs/@ BU, vs/@ UMass, @ Lowell
PC: 2 @ UVM, vs/@Mack, vs/@ Maine
NU: @/vs Lowell, vs/@ BC, 2 @ UVM, vs/@ BU

Couple of things that stand out:

Maine is currently undefeated at Alfond and have 5 of their remaining 6 games at home.
Amherst comes into the Lowell weekend well rested having this week off.
PC looks to have the easiest schedule going forward, though Mack has shown some fight lately

Lowell really needs to take care of business this week, maybe catch NU off either a high or low from tonight's Beanpot final, and it's a must that they get at least 3 points against UMass. If Lowell can go into next weekend with a lead on Amherst in the standings, 3 points would be huge going forward.

Maybe I have the wrong game......sorry about that

They let the Refs throw them off their game last night and it cost them points in the end. Played some really uninspired hockey in the 2nd and they tried to put together a push to tilt the ice in the last ten but came up very short.

Bad reffing is a feature not a bug so that should be assumed, but it sill amazes me that Hockey East pays people like Walker Holton to be an impartial jurist. Not sure how you can call our guy for a hold when the other play is hooking him? That was really a first.

7-1-1 on the road this year with (4) of those W's coming against Mack and UVM. So that number is skewed a tad...

Nice to see Reid get a goal . Other than that not much good came out of this weekend. 1 goal all weekend is not going to get it done. Doesn't get any easier with Amherst coming in next weekend. Need to at least split with them and run the table with NH and UConn

Maybe even like two seasons ago when they lost 7 of last 8.
