Maine Black Bears 2019-20: Seeing Red

[BoSox3066]

Friday was the first top 10 road win by Maine against a non-conference opponent since sweeping #3 North Dakota 10/20-21/07

Great stat. Swayman is freakin awesome

Very nice win, got some offense and Swayman was the man.

Nice win fellas. See, Red’s got things under control....

Shots were even after 2 periods. Maine just got completed crushed in the 3rd, but they actually got the key insurance goal and great goaltending to seal the win.

Nice to see them close one out.

Is the rink renovation done?
I plan to get to one of the UVM and Maine games this year or next.

Swayman's S% was .939. He does that again tonight, Maine could actually sweep.

(...And Red gets an on-the-spot extension. )

Not sure about that, but I don’t think so. I live in Atlanta, so I don’t get to many (or any) games.

Both Programs are in dire need of change...behind the bench.

Making his first collegiate start in goal for the Black Bears tonight is Matthew Theissen.

Re: Maine Black Bears 2019-20: Seeing Red

Schmitty with a rocket on the rush pots one for Maine on their first shot, 1-0 Black Bears.

Re: Maine Black Bears 2019-20: Seeing Red

Just like that Q ties it with a shot off the rush of their own, Theissen needed to have that one.

Looked bad on that one. Hopefully just nerves and not a sign of things to come.

Re: Maine Black Bears 2019-20: Seeing Red

A brutal turnover leads to another strike from Q, 2-1 Bobcats.

Re: Maine Black Bears 2019-20: Seeing Red

3-1 Q, strong net drive gets the goal. Thiessen's night is over, Swayman is out to take over.

Swayman down by 7 at PC red leaves him in. Swayman has a great game last night so Red decides to start Thiessen, wt f

I would really love to hear Red's explanation for that one. I would have expected Theissen to get his chance against a weak opponent at home against Alaska, not on the road against a Top 10 ranked team.

I like the idea of starting Thiessen and Red would have done well to leave him in longer. Maine already has a split in the bag and can’t play Swayman every game.

No rhyme or reason as to what Red is thinking.
