Rachel lenzi tweeted yesterday that nyquist was in street clothes for practice and joey diamond was practicing with flynn and house. Any other news on that?

Anyone get HE quarterfinal ticket apps yet?. It used to be you'd get them weeks before the season ended, now they aren't as confident?

Your HEA quarterfinal tix application was included with your season tix package last summer or you had until last Friday to secure your regular seats by calling the ticket office. I received mine in the mail today. I would call soonest if I were you. Also if you get a chance to read the note included in the tix you will know they are very confident.

Thanks alot
You saved my seats, I just called and got them. Is this the first year they have done it this way or haven't I been paying attention ? Last time they were in with home ice they sent a letter out with an application to get them.
Anyway thanks again

I believe it is a new Hockey East rule to try and collect the play-off money earlier or something the league is encouraging as a lot of people I know at different league schools have told me that they now get to decide whether to pay up front for a potential home ice series. Even Merrimack has done that the last several years.

I think they have done it for the past couple of years but we all knew they wouldn't be there so we didn't pay much attention to it. Maybe what they saved in postage will go towards a salary increase for King James or better for the search committee to find his replacement.:D

My bad, I seem to have forgotten how many points Maine needs to sew up home ice.:D

Home ice but, do you want 3rd or 4th? I doubt Willie plays unless its mop up duty?

Good point, I hope Maine can match up in the HE Quarters with a team that will give Maine more of a push in the power rankings. Vermont would be my guess.

Congrats to the Seniors. Specal congrats to Dek and Carriere. They stuck it out thru a rough period. Watching their classmates get dismissed one by one from the team. Suffering thru a couple of very bad seasons. Not getting a ton of playing time until this year. Great example of character, fortitude and leadership. Good luck boys, I'm sure you'll do great in whatever you pursue.

Good stuff, these guys are saving their best for last. Injuries really affected all the seniors and its good to see them do well. Hopefully they get to play some more games before their careers are over:D

PairWise :p

And Vermont would be the best matchup. Northeastern or Lowell might be good, depending on this weekend. Merrimack and UMA would not help in the PWR. Getting a QF pairing with BU would be the nightmare scenario.

I certainly think you could add Wilson to your list and Swallow has fought thorough injuries and got back into the line-up including stellar duty on the PK. They are all fine young men and will do well in the future.

Carriere practiced yesterday.

Oh, I agree. But I wanted to make a special shout out to those two. Swallow was a transfer and Wilson wasn't going anywhere. Dek and Carriere could've easilly packed it in, quit and they didn't. Not dissing the other two, just a little something special for them. :)

Noticed in the BU article in the Boston Globe today:

http://www.boston.com/sports/colleges/mens_hockey/articles/2010/03/05/its_a_dogfight_for_bu_and_nu/

there were significant PWR implications on the mind of Shattenkirk from BU this season, as their year played out.

Each night over the next couple of weekends will be critical in the constant recalculation of PWR to determine whether Maine can squeak in with an at-large berth, rather than having to run the table and be victorious at the Gahden.

An at-large squeak will likely earn them no better than a third seed somewhere, whereas beating teams all the way to the last game in HEA and whatever else plays out elsewhere in NCAA div. 1 likely will give them a third or perhaps even a second-seed.
