Crazy to think that for as good as the program was at that point they hadn't even peaked yet.

Well, to whichever one of you said you always thought Cavanaugh would take UConn to the Garden before Red took Maine there, you'll find out this coming weekend...

It is pretty much everywhere except Wyoming, which I don't think actually exists. It is just a way to get two Repub votes in the Senate.

I have a 2:1 bet with a writer from the globe UConn won’t make it through Orono. Gulp.

That was me. I may be "eating crow". ;) Maine may very well win Hockey East or make the NCAA tournament (or both); if they do, it's because Swayman is invincible. This Maine team does not have the offensive skill in more than one line to score more than 2-3 goals a game against good goal tending. Maine can't afford Swayman to be just good, he has to be outstanding every game. Vomacka is good but not as good as Swayman. Based on the last game (I was there), I saw at Alfond against UConn it will probably go 3 games. IMHO.

If Maine gets there, it won't be about Red. ;)

BlackI, I was going to email you but I see you've disabled emails from admins. Two things.

1. Do you mind keeping your inane babble to this thread? No need to harass people in other threads or try to pick fights with them. Try having conversations with them.
2. Can you lay off the Covid-19 crap? We've been getting reports you've either been hacked or are a bot.

Next time... let's not have a next time, shall we?

Thanks!

This series will come down to goaltending...Maine has the plus there but don't count out UConn's Vomacka...Home ice will be a key also for Maine, UConn has speed/size and strength...Maine needs to score, plain and simple...1 and 2 goals per game could end Maine's season....if they can muster 3 goals and if more which would be a plus...I have faith they can beat UConn. Both teams are coming in with upswings in there season. Should be tight games and could very well go to a 3 game series. Bottom line it sure is nice to be playing playoff hockey at home.

Good luck you guys. Hope you make it to the Garden.

Lake Superior has a chance to help Maine and the other bubble teams by ending Bemidji's season today. It would also be beneficial if Minnesota eliminated Notre Dame and Yale won this OT thriller against Union.

ETA: And Robert Morris over Holy Cross in the AHA.

Yale has won in 2OT.

We'll likely find out Wednesday. The state is supposed to roll out testing and safety procedures. One of those might be eliminating crowds of a certain size (usually 1000) which means UMaine athletics.

So did 3/4 games go our way, with the exception of LSSU dropping the game against Bemidji?
