Anybody know if there are any closures of restaurants etc in Andover or North Andover due to the gas problem? I know Lawrence is still hit hard.

And 3 starter candidates in goal? Really? Where? There is 1 (Pantano).
Look, I realize the cupboard is pretty bare. Dennehy's last couple of recruiting classes were abysmal. You want to start the season off on a good note? Don't start your 4th string goalie in the 1st game!! (yes, I know they only have 3 goalies on the roster). Vogler was 1-7-2 last year, with a less than 88% save percentage, and starts the season? Give up 5 goals on 19 shots? NO chance you can win with that!

Sorry, but things will have to break MC's way for them not to be one of the bottom feeders in all of college hockey.Things really would have to break MC's way to finish out of the cellar this year. We should as always have strong goaltending with 3 starter candidates. [...]

Merrimack 2018-19: It's Time For The Scotty Bo Show
Offense was non-existent til well into the third period today too. It’s gonna be a long year.
MMQB here but I feel like if I had explicitly stated that I was going to try a few guys in net on opening weekend, I would have started Pantano on opening night. He had a great year last year and deserved a chance to roll with it. Maybe he could have been the difference that got us ONE win this weekend vs zero.

It looks like it might be a long winter in North Andover. It is only two games in, but i didn’t see much of a change in style this weekend. Although they did not win the effort was still there.I told myself that I would be on here more often and that I would not say anything negative about players, so I will say that I like the new home jerseys and am happy that they now beer.

Last weekend I had the privilege of going to two outstanding places. The Bentley Arena is a great rink. Perfect size and the crowd was good. The other great thing was the goaltending in that game. I thought Bentley had the better opportunities but Merrimack was able to capitalize.
Army’s Tate Rink wasn’t as nice, but what a campus. Right along the Hudson the school is a thing of beauty. What wasn’t beautiful was the play for the second half of the first period and the second period. However I did like the play in the third.
Right now the two issues I see are playing a full game and getting the puck out of the zone. The first three to four shifts seem fine, but the team then goes into a lull. Also I can’t count the amount of pucks that are 5 to 10 feet away from the blue line that are not getting out. Do that against Hockey East teams and you are toast.

Re: Merrimack 2018-19: It's Time For The Scotty Bo Show
Well that was a pleasant surprise!
Some interesting comments from older players saying it was the most complete game they’d had in their entire careers. Also talked about how they’d “go to war” for that locker room - Interesting dynamic considering all of the new players and HC.
Homecoming next Saturday, should be a sold out crowd coming into a game with lots of momentum.. should be fun!

Wow, I picked a hell of a game to miss. It sounds like BU is really struggling in general right now, but let's not take anything away from MC. Great win, maybe we wrote the obituary for this squad a little early.

Recruit Kevin Wall de-commits. He's currently 3rd in the BCHL in scoring.

Re: Merrimack 2018-19: It's Time For The Scotty Bo Show
Hello Warrior Fans,
A few days ago, I picked up a few Merrimack jerseys, including one from the late 1990s early 2000s. It is a bit of a mystery to me as the name is removed. It looks like the photo below but it is a #27 Nike jersey and has the standard Hockey East patch. The other strange part is that it was signed not once, not twice but three times by the same mystery person on the inside of the jersey. Looks like they were practicing to sign something more important. Anyone have a guess who this might be? Anyone know what years this style of Nike jersey was worn? Any help would be appreciated.
Do I have a guess? Well that looks like an R and an F and a T together, so that's a nope.
(If you watch SNL, you know what I'm talking about...)
Unrelated, I made my first trip to Merrimack last weekend and watched you guys put a whoopin' on BU. Nice work!

Re: Merrimack 2018-19: It's Time For The Scotty Bo Show
Well that was an unproductive weekend. Smoked at Amherst, then can't close it out in North Andover. Having said that, this is not your father's (or older brother's) UMass. Makar is outstanding, and Leonard was an excellent local get for the Minutmen. I could see them making some noise in Hockey East this year.

my expectations are low. Borek was stuck with Dennehy's leftovers so give him 3 years to get some scoring in here.

I actually thought the first name was Robert? but I can't think of any robert on the team around that time. The last name doesn't line up either.

Re: Merrimack 2018-19: It's Time For The Scotty Bo Show
basically he said there are probably going to do it but he believes they are building a fieldhouse first and that the football team needs to move their locker room to the field house. Apparently the football team has locker rooms in the gym, which I think weird but once they move out then they will have the space to renovate the gym
Anyone subscribed to McMahons VIP podcast? Saw that he may have discussed gym renovations..would love to see what he said if anyone has any insight.
