UMass Lowell Off-Season 2017: Next verse, same as the first

Re: UMass Lowell Off-Season 2017: Next verse, same as the first

I wonder how this is going to work... will there be a pre-set rotation based on previous finish or just a set rotation or willl it be cherry picked (let's say, zoomass, Merrimack, providence, BU)

Apparently the HE schedule is done. According to the Mack Report, Merrimack will play BU, Northeastern, UMass and Providence three times next season.

You guys pulled a UNH this year and sent an overmatched ND up against Denver. Now you see how hard single elimination is on a good team. As a hockey east fan I am very disappointed....

As i've mentioned elsewhere... it only bothers me if they didn't put in the effort... all kinds of things can go wrong and you go down by a bunch.

On the other hand, getting teams psychologically primed to play has been a hallmark of the Bazin era... that also means that other teams usually don't... and Notre Dame did that day and didn't in Chicago and didn't in Boston.

edit: Lowell made a few mistakes in the regional final game but I'm not unhappy with the effort

I agree with you. It's not like Lowell didn't show up for the game.

Lots of talk on Twitter of Blaise going back to Coach at Niagara again. I hope it happens for him.

Interesting. Blaise just finished his fifth season at Colby where his son Cam plays for him. Time flies, it's hard to believe he has a son that's a junior in college. The best of luck to Blaise where ever he coaches.

Niagara going in diff. direction, will not bring in alum. Jason Lammers, Ethan Moreau, Blaise MacDonald in for 2nd interviews next 3 days.

Nothing on Twitter but he's no longer listed on the roster so gone. No surprise there.

I figured that would happen too. The best of luck to Garrett in the future. Hopefully he lands somewhere where he can play more.

That being said, I'd like to think if he looked the part (potential NHL) he would have split the duties... too bad it didn't work out

Just like in hockey, Lowell smoked "the flagship" in baseball today in Amherst, 6-0.
 
Re: UMass Lowell Off-Season 2017: Next verse, same as the first

With Metcalf leaving, that leaves Lowell with two juniors who have barely seen any time and Wall ...

I wonder if this means we should be looking for a goalie commit in the next year or so.

Does anyone know if the team has had their season ending banquet yet?
