Not really a surprise, congratulations to Jon Swavely and Martin Ouellette for receiving player and defensive players of the week in Hockey East. A little more special for Swavely as he missed games early in the season to injury.

what will be more interesting is seeing how that will affect PWR down the road...

A) huh?
B) not sure I would put a loss to a top 2 team (the q) in there with mercyhurst and Vermont....
(A) There record of only 7 wins is awful to say the least,had they not won 2 vs BC this record would be more dreadful and the kicker NO WIN's on Home Ice...they have Neutral Ice wins in Kansas City(Army),Florida(UMD,Cornell)...home away from home in Portland(Mercyhurst)...and 3 wins in Hockey East away games(1@UML-- 2@BC)...as far as Quinnipiac,I am hard on them,not that they are not having a excellant season...plus a opening win @ Maine,but until they Win in their Conference Playoff games and go to the NCAA's and at least win one game then I still think there suspect,plus the ECAC factor...but FWIW I think that Quinnipiac should have been the team added to Hockey East instead of UCONN,why...they have a New Building in place/Hockey would be more or less the only game in town...similiar to Maine in yesteryears...UCONN Hockey is 4th on the ladder rung,Mens/Womens B-Ball and the FB program will get all the attention and upgrades while the Hockey Team plays in a less then stellar rink,which they have said they would replace down the line(so figure 3-5 yrs from now)..so thats why...may or may not answer all your Q's...!

I think I know what you were talking about but your first sentence didn't make any sense is all. QU is a great team. Maybe a one hit wonder, but this year they are a great team, no shame in losing to them.

Quinnipiac could very well get a #1 seed in the Eastern Side of the Regionals,2nd seed at worst and get placed in a favorable Bracket and make it to the Frozen 4 in Pittsburgh...they could join RIT,Bemidji State,Union as long shots that made the Frozen 4...and no dishing on them(QU)...there record speaks for them this season 18-3-3. And it's good for College Hockey and there fan base.

Don't expect Maine fans that get insulted constantly over the Clarkson 1 seed that put them in the Frozen Four in 07 to consider a loss to an EZAC tiger at home a "good loss."
 
Re: Maine 2012-13 Part 3D: Still digging

Noticed that all players were slotted in thier natural positions this past weekend. Just maybe everyone felt comfortable. Hope so, and hope Whitehead took notice too. I personally don't like d-men playing up and vice versa. Unless you're Dustin Byfuglien.
 
Re: Maine 2012-13 Part 3D: Still digging

Marty is HE Goalie of the month, very cool and well deserved, he has kept the team in most games, not his fault no one can score.

I don't like losing at Alfond either and neither should the Coach(TW)...and I never considered the opening game lost to QU as anything but a disaster in the making season...which @ 7-14-4 is well on track...even with those 2 wins over BC @ BC...this weekend will tell alot,can they continue to win and finally win at Home..? And PC/UML are teams they need to beat to gain in the standings...11 games left and can't leave points off the board for playoff positioning.

The man was a stud all weekend. Didn't believe he could come back the second night and shut the lights out on BC but he did. I was wrong.

Those moves of changing D to F and F to D has been nothing but a total Circus Act...it boggles the mind when he actually had D-men at Forward and Forwards on Defense during the same game...when they could have been in they rightful postions,but thats been going on with TW for years. Painful to say the least.
