UMaine Hockey 23 - 24: The Barr Crawl to Glory!!!

[Sparkee]

UMass dropped back to trap several shifts in a row, Maine having tough time getting through it.

 

[Drew S.]

Wasn’t a d man to be found. It was Niemo trying to back check. He was slow as molasses though. But that was just softie by Boija.

Boija needed to come out and clear the puck away.

Nadeaus with a couple good chances and some zone time but can't punch it in

 

[Sparkee]

Tic tac toe between Nadeaus and Bradley buried it one timer.

Tied 1-1

New Hampshire cruising through Lowell tonight and will wrap up sixth place. Maine-UHN quarterfinal matchup looming...

And right on queue, Maine converts a 3-on-1 and tie the game at 1-1.

Nadeau's look a lot better tonight

Nadeau's look a lot better tonight

Bradley rung the post previously on same shift. Josh hustled back to get a good stick check from behind on a guy coming in alone on Boija. Good stuff.

The goal was a muffin on a play the Dman got trapped pinching in. Boija probably should have pokechecked that puck away. Looked like he hesitated on the replay.

Good first overall though. Renwick’s size already paying dividends between the Bros as that line was excellent. Thought the Freel-Scott-Houle line looked strong too.

Well at least someone came back. Niemi got beat pretty easy regardless of Boija.

Well at least someone came back. Was wondering who got outskated. Niemi got beat pretty easy regardless of Boija.

Rouliard must be reffing tonite. Oh, yup.

I wasn’t able to see the penalty on the last two called on Maine???

 

[amkirby10]

Pretty good game so far, excited to see the third

 

[Sparkee]

Brad came to play tonight. He’s gotten some great shots off. Let’s hope he’s got some more corked up. UMass plays good defense so not a lot of great chances that period.

Guy loves calling the most ticky tack stuff

 

[Wayuphere]

Under what might have been, if only UMass’s Suniev and the Nadeau brothers had kept that BCHL powerhouse top scoring line together by continuing on here in Orono this year. Suniev is another good one who finished 3rd in BCHL scoring behind the brothers.

 

[Sparkee]

Again, a phantom call that can’t be seen around the play or on the review. What was that one for?

 

[Sparkee]

Another shot off the pipe, this time Breen on a two on one.

Game is getting down to the wire.

 

[Sparkee]

Maine finally gets a power play but does nothing with it.

 

[Sparkee]

Freel redirected a wrister by Scholle from point on the power play.

Maine 2-1
