Maine playing without any urgency. Sloppy. Not looking like a contender again.
Never forget who the coach is
Friggi** penalties
Maine wins 3-2 to complete the sweep. Maine is tied for fourth in Hockey East but when all tiebreakers are applied the Black Bears are seventh. Consider that Northeastern is a single point behind with two games in hand, and Maine is essentially eighth.
Nationally, Maine will remain in 17th after tonight. All teams immediately ahead of them won. Turn that Quinnipiac game around and Maine is sitting 8th in the pairwise. Flip the Yale and St Lawrence games as well and Maine is battling Cornell and BC for the #1 seed in Albany. Those non-conference games are huge.

Who scheduled Maine to have 8 of their last 9 at home?![]()
I don’t think any of us could realistically expect a sweet at Quinnipiac even though it happened a couple years ago. The other two games really hurt though. Alaska is up 2-0 on the number two pairwise team right now and if they hold on would think that would help Maine.
Good sweep.
Biggest crowd I've seen for Merrimack.
Yup. Best kid on ice for Merrimack was Holway.
Hockey East.
Don't want to look too far ahead, but I hope the bye week cools off Connecticut. They just laid the smackdown on a UNH team that had been playing some quality hockey. They aren't to be taken lightly, especially given the struggles Maine seems to have when facing them.
