Re: 2016/2016 Lowell Thread: Hoping for Chicago

so I'm imagining a pretty decent crowd was on hand for the 7:00 game.

It was maybe 2/3 full. Box score said 2949, and capacity is 3500, but I think the 2949 is both games combined.

The 2nd game was not exactly the best hockey to watch, kinda like watching Merrimack and UMass play each other. Lowell *should* beat Dartmouth tomorrow, but they haven't had the best of luck up here.

We'll (myself and pesky) will be up. I'll do the full chant them, I can still can look like an undergrad

She directed her ire towards me... I had something awful torqued up in case she flapped her lips again... something to the effect of one should wait to breed until after they learn how to drive. She had a young face so that comment would be so caustic to the point of being able to peel paint

Lowell dominated for much of the game although some rust was evident. A late surge by Colgate made the last few minutes interesting but Lowell hung on.

I thought that all four lines played well last night. That Campbell line is puzzling though. They seem to be hustling but not producing. Of the 6 shot attempts they produced, 4 of them were fluff. On net but not much to them.

Until watching the highlights, I did not realize that Colgate had pulled Finn for the extra shooter.

Yup, they made it interesting but it clearly should not have been.

Wonder how much tinkering Norm will do with the lines tonight and what's up with that beard?
Bring on the Big Green.

I just see missteps all over the place... it doesn't have to be perfect but they have to make their connections

edit: i'm leaning to coming up tonight... I don't really want to make the drive.... getting kinda sick of driving this week... but I don't get hockey much

Neither team seemed to have a reliable breakout of their zone. Army is definitely a physical team, but would get pinned in behind their own red line. Should be an easy game.

Re: 2016/2016 Lowell Thread: Hoping for Chicago

They started really late. No pregame

Bob had to wait for the first game to end, Colgate had to break their equipment down, and then Bob had to set up his. Only one slot for the visiting team in Dartmouth's press area. It was a race just to get on air in time for the game.

Ahh. He didn't say that, only they didn't have time to get the pregame in

Gambardella for Hobey!

Seriously, he has to get some consideration. Currently sits tied for sixth in nation in scoring with 10-20-30 numbers and is a force every time he hits the ice. Will be interesting to see how the Hobey process proceeds down the road.

Game recap from the Valley News.

Warning - open the above link at your own risk as there are photos of Dartmouth's third jersey they wore that gave several of us headaches. Actually worse on the eyes than the Notre Dame gold hockey helmets. A Dartmouth season ticket holder I was chatting with said they looked like a bunch of skating convicts in old timey prison uniforms.

Dartmouth coach was very impressed with Lowell.
