UConn wins Thursday's nightcap, 2-0.

It'll be RPI vs. Army in the consolation and UML vs. UConn in the championship on Friday.

Lowell gets their chance at a rematch...

Pretty happy with that.

Attendance was 1587 tonight. Not too bad.

UConn played as if practicing for UML sending only one on the forecheck most of the game. It was way closer than it should have been.

Edit: Attendance was not too bad considering the women were playing next door at Gampel at the same time.

One other note: that SHG by David Vallorani was a thing of absolute beauty. You can't teach that kind of thing. You are either born with it or you are not.

Not sure how early I can make it to the game... does anybody anticipate this being sold out?

I'd say 'no'

The house might be "fairly full" but you will get a seat. It might have to be a reserved seat at a whopping $6, but you will get in.

Still shaking my head about that Vallorani goal. The guy is a wizard with the puck in that situation.

Wow. A heartbreaker. 3-4 in OT. Somehow there ought to be a rubber match, don't you think? Each team won in OT in the other guy's barn.

Personally, although the Huskies are not satisfied with this result, if they go forward and win the games they should win for the remainder of the season, I'll be satisfied as a fan. If they want to contend in the AHA, they will have to play every game as well as they played the two against Lowell this year. Time to take it to the next step with discipline and determination.

Good tournament to win for Lowell. Great response in OT, thanks to some mental mistakes by UConn taking penalties they shouldn't have.

Someone inform Dirty about next year's tournament. Maybe he'll be lucky enough to get his AIC jersey.

I will re-iterate that I've been asking for one for longer

... because Dirty is, for some reason, going to be at a tiny tournament in a tiny rink over a thousand miles from where he lives that doesn't include a team he cares about next season?

Help me out with the rationale on this one.

I don't think even Dirty could explain Dirty's rationale.

I know his rationale. I'm trying to understand what AIC being in this tournament next year has to do with his promised jersey.
