Maine

Gutsy win, especially with the way regulation ended.

Yeh, Maine just out husstled them, bc didn't get to play their game.
Talk about Sway stealing a game, this was it.

Re: Maine

Guess I should have finished watching the game instead of switching to the Celtics after the 1st Good win for them, BC looked pretty good in the 1st.

Re: Maine

As I've said before, Swayman can carry at team...as last night showed it...especially in the 1st period where he made a half dozen key saves that Maine could have been in the hole 4-0 instead of 2-0...a lot people know he's the key while some think he's just ok...finally he got some help from the offence...4 goals and Maine has a excellent chance of winning games...3 goals and there right in it. They can upset a team in the 1st round with Swayman, getting 3/4 goals and say playing BC again...Maine is in there heads and they could be ripe for a upset if it came down to a #1 vs #8 or if BC slips to #2 and Maine makes it up to #7...would be a interesting series...with imo Maine needing to win game one and really putting the pressure on Yorks Eagles. The key to this series would be Swayman/Offence by Maine/and some discipline big time.

Maybe they’re going to acquire USM? It wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.

I don't think Maine is in their heads. To me they just thought the game was over after the first. If Maine wins again tonight I might change my tune. But overall I agree that no matter who Maine plays in the playoffs Swayman should give you a good chance to win.

I heard down in Mass they ran into some controversy over their marine research, maybe they're trying to do it in Maine instead now.

Looks like they wanted to build a new marine research center and locals opposed it in Nahant.

Yep, that's precisely what I had in mind.

Evidently they want a research center. Not sure it is a competition thing.

Wished I knew when on vacay in Boothbay. Could’ve checked it out. That area is gorgeous and anyone gets to live there should be thankful.

I spent a lot of time there(darling center) as a kid, It was just starting at that point. Much different now.

Also, while on the subject the maritime museum in Brunswick is awesome in case anyone is interested.

I will be headed back that way next summer. So much to do and need more time to hit more stuff.
