UNH - BU Home and Home

Re: UNH - BU Home and Home

With BU's OT ties with the Warriors last weekend, I think they will be lusting for some blood. However, if UNH plays like they did in the first two periods against UMASS on Friday, they should win at home (and put up a good fight at the Agganis). Defense needs to hold the corners, DiGirolamo can handle himself at the net. Their offensive line with DeSimone, Thompson, and Kostolansky played a tough, storng game Friday and Saturday; they just need to keep on the puck and play aggressively in the zone, regardless of if they can score or not. I predict 3-2 UNH (1-1 in 1st, 1-0 BU 2nd, 1-0 UNH 3rd, and 1-0 FTW in OT) on Friday. I think they have their work cut out for them on Friday and will probably be a 1-1 split or 2-1 BU game Saturday.

GO BLUE!

It's a 8:59 train, so that's a solid game into the 3rd.

Well, I'm covering the game, so leaving early isn't really an option. Even if it was, who wants to make the trip up there only to have to leave early? Just stay home and watch it on NESN in that case. Driving's definitely the better option.

Another option is to take 101 from the Hampton tolls and get off at 108. The speed limit is obviously slower through Stratham and Newmarket, but it takes about the same amount of time. You can also go one exit futher on 101 and go through Newfields to catch 108 in Newmarket.

going this way, are you more or less guaranteed to avoid traffic? is the traffic that you'd avoid bad enough to be worth avoiding?

At the comparable time in BU's last road game they were trailing 3-1, before sending it to OT. Are you trying to prevent BU fans from seeing their team's comebacks?:eek:;)

Well it's always a good idea to leave a BU game when they're down 3-1, they never come back anyways.

Depends on your definition of "traffic."

Stop and go? You won't see that. The worst you'll see is maybe going from stop light to stop light through Stratham. But once you're through the strip mall area, the "traffic" may consist of a dozen or so cars ahead of you all the way through Newmarket to Durham.

I regularly drive to/from Durham and Milford, MA. It takes me 1.5 hrs via 101/108, and coming north, it takes me about 30 minutes from Seabrook to get to Durham.

In comparison, the General Sullivan bridge backs up to the Fox Run Mall, in mostly stop and go until you clear the bridge.

haha, I sit wherever I can get tickets, but it looks like he has a fan club brewing (I'm not usually that vocal at the games..anymore... which is probably approved by most of the shhhhhhhhhhhhh crowd)
