Here is what it comes down to. The UML fans need our blessing in order to feel like they have accomplished something this year. Their season just wont feel right unless Huskies01 and the rest of the dedicated NU fan base tells them how great they are. They have some kind of inferiority complex that makes them keep coming back to our NU thread looking for some kind of redemption or maybe roses, I do not know.
Merrimack fans did not need to do this when they got good. UVM fans never pop in here. Did NU fans pop into your threads the past few years telling you how great we are looking fishing desperately for compliments like the few of you are constantly doing? No. Wanna know why? Cause nobody gives a rats behind what UML fans think, plus, and more importantly, we had faith in our team and did not need your stamp of approval, we knew it.
Look, we are not going to kiss some magical ring because your team managed to keep the puck out of the net this year. I still see your team as flawed. One that has had done well this year at catching teams when they are down and not playing well. Like Maine for example. And the bu game. Credit, you won those game. But I still saw 6 periods where NU skated circles around you and did everything but finish. I again watched your team wilt in the third period against UVM Saturday night when they pulled their goalie and scored. (see, it works even though the come back did not make it all the way)
So again, enjoy your finest season in decades. If we meet again, feel free to set up another game thread. Otherwise go crawl back to your thread and leave us NU fans to our own devices.
