Re: The rebirth of Providence College Hockey
It's always a war in the woods. UMaine plays very well at home and the Friars have traditionally struggled up in Orono.
It's one of the best trips that a college hockey fan can make as the fans up there are great, the rink is cool and there is more to do up there on a weekend then most people imagine.
Aside from fellow Friars fans getting auto parts lifted from their vehicles and the fact that the visitors section is directly under the muddy and wet boots of the student body, I've always had a blast up there!
I think that the Friars will split with the Blackbears this weekend but it will be a hard fought split. Alfond is a very difficult place to earn a win but I think that this team is too new to be daunted by Alfond's crowd and the hype of playing at UMaine.

I hear Coach is changing his recruiting from TA's and some players who were recruits no longer are - and vis versa.
Regarding rink alterations, the plans will be completed in late November. Not sure on construction but the School has agreed (Trustees) to pay for it. $1.5M contirbuted so far but this (and the track/soccer complex) are approved.

Say, this is nice.
What happened last night is sadly typical.

Power play was pitiful but apart from that I was okay with the weekend. Beaudry was fantastic in the second game--the team didn't wake up until the second period.

Re: The rebirth of Providence College Hockey
Friars need to get back in the win column tonight. They played well up in Maine, just came up short in both games. 2 points would be fine this week, 3 or 4 points would be a bonus.

It would be great to get at least 1 win

They will earn at least a split if they play with the same fire that they had during their first two home stands.
Vermont is not as strong as they have been in the recent past and the Friars have played quite well at home this season. I'm loving their stye this season and their hustle. I'll be shocked if they don't earn at least a split this weekend. Hope to see some of you there.
