That's why I call him Xzlax.

just the start of the midseason slide as always. Five game losing streak is in play now with Maine and BU in back to back weekends. They will be lucky to get three points out of those four games.
They continue to take terrible shots and hitting goalies in the chest.
Zlax is evidently not a former player so just spouts off with no valid basis, grasping at straws to come up with more negative commentary. What kind of a person does that?
Despite the predictions from the venerable one. the Friars on the road have played well in most of the Friday night games (sans that BC game a few weeks ago). I think they will do the same in Orno. Maybe the Czech will be back in the lineup. I also noticed, rather late, that Valente hasn't played in a few games, was he hurt?
All hands on deck for this weekend. Obviously going to need Svedeback to play well. He wasn't bad in the Saturday game. The first PP goal guy came pretty much in all alone from the side and the second goal was one of those upper corner snipes from the circle. I do think Friars need to be better shooting the puck on goal including making the goalie move more. There were a lot of pucks Saturday right at the UCONN goalie.
Before last year the Friars had a decent run up there although Maine was down in some. Always a tough place to play, hoping for at least one win out this weekend.
I don't need to watch the game again. I was there. Just as I'll be in Maine this weekend. PK has connections.
PK, hope you bring some luck. Sounds like a great environment. Maybe coach Leaman has some plays that worked well when he was there as a volunteer assistant under Shawn Walsh, that is where he got his start in the coaching ranks and the Black Bears won a national championship that year, I think it was 1999. Would love to visit one of these years.
Sounds like we might get to see Jaroslav back in game action this weekend. PK out.
Extraordinary win for the Friars, another 4-3 beauty. Very much like the 1/13 comeback win vs BC except this one was away at ME who were undefeated at home and whose goalie was playing an exceptional weekend with one great save after another. In both BC and ME games, PC fell behind 1-0, 2-1, & 3-2 and came back to tie the game each time and then finally score the go ahead goal when it counted at the end of the game. Talk about grit, the game last night showed what it is.
I thought the Friars had the better of play both nights too. The ME announcers on ESPN+ seemed to echo that sentiment for the most part, but were naturally rooting for the home team. Not so much puck luck Friday for ME, especially the great power play goal by Josh Nadeau who roofed his shot into the smallest open spot over the goalie. He and his brother Brady are some duo. The problem I saw for PC was not solving the goaltending for ME and not getting puck luck themselves. There were a number of loud shots off the posts, the difference in those bouncing away from instead of into the net must be pretty darn slim. The crowd noise and packed arena made for an even more challenging match, that intangible is a big home team advantage. Wish Schneider was more like that more often.
7 games left in the regular season, but 3 of those vs BU. Exciting ending coming up, hope we hang in there. As the ESPN announcers said, PC is a very tough team to play.
PC has now not won a game in regulation since Feb. 2nd and now are in a three way tie for 11th in PWR. Very quickly playing themselves out of the NCAA Tournament for the fourth straight year....
