UML '09/'10 Season Thread Part II

Assuming that Lowell has home ice for a moment, who would we rather see in the QF's, Merrimack or BU (also assuming they would be our first round opponent)?

I'd take anyone at this point...it's been eight years. Also, it's still viable for NU to come to the Tsongas under the assumption that we have home ice.

So here's my question. Tonite I saw a completely different PK from what I've seen all year. Usually, I see four PK guys on the ice almost backing in towards their own goalie, letting the opponent not only move in closer but have an easier time handling the puck. Tonight, I saw a PK team out challenging the puck handlers with an aggression I hadn't seen this season. It lead to UVM looking almost silly on their penalty opps and Falite's SH goal.

Where has this been all year? Is it just me? Am I missing something?

I was very impressed with our PK last night.. our PK has been good this year, I would say it was more aggressive last night then other nights, but overall a good PK this season.

What surprised me the most was the lack of PK that Vermont had, especially in the 2nd. Their lack of aggression on the PK gave Lowell free reign of the point and provided a nice screen for our shooters, which was capitalized on.

Scenarios with Lowell Win on Saturday (thinking positively)

Maine: Lowell is third with a Maine loss, else fourth.

BU: If BU wins AND Maine ties or wins, BU comes to the Tsongas. If BU loses/ties, we have home ice but the opponent is not clear.

NU and MC: Obviously a NU win means they finish ahead of BU since they hold the tiebreaker. In this scenario, Merrimack could then finish ahead of NU and BU by beating Providence at 27. If BU, Amherst, and NU all are at 26, NU wins that tiebreaker.

UMA: With a point AND a NU point, UVM would miss the playoffs. (UVM has NU tiebreaker)

There are many, many, many more, I'm sure but these are a few highlights.

My head hurts. Glad there are others doing the logic. I just pray hard and wait to see what happens.

Moe actually had a few really nice plays but he is really struggling this yr.

He's currently the biggest liability on the blue line...

I will agree that he has been a marked liability but not the biggest one this year.

There's one more D-man...I think you can figure it out without mentioning names and violating my policy of not placing same on boards in a negative context.

I think everyone knows who you're talking about.

Very good result last night for UML. I was impressed with how they responded to the 2-1 deficit, basically that reaction that we've seen sooooo few times this year. "We're just not going to lose this." I hope we get to see that again a few more times this year.

Not even close, your prediction that Lowell was going to go undefeated is much much much better. The best part "It's not unreasonable."

I still smile everytime I read that, thanks for the chuckle through a dismal season for the Catamounts. I owe you.

When I wrote that I couldn't have imagined that anyone would be so stupid as to believe I was serious.

Of course that's your story now. I'm sure you started singing that tune right after the UNO game.;)

I wonder if your story would be the same if by some miracle UML actually had gone undefeated....


But, yes had I made that statement I would be saying the same thing...

Lowell down 29-28 at the half. About half of UML's points have come from the foul line as Adelphi took around 18 fouls in the first half.

Shot like crap for the first half, 6 of 26. They made 2 of 15 shots from inside the 3 point arch. Horrendous. The fact that they're still in the game is astounding.
