How ya feeling about Sat? That's the one I'm going to. Sure would be nice to see a Wildcat upset of sorts but I suppose I just hope they give em a game.
There should be no doubt who BC is so hope they are prepared!

Feeling a bit uneasy about all of our remaining games!
Win at Lawlor on Saturday night, sweep the Ospreys, and win MBPBEGAM game for a 18-17-1 winning record, MS7’s first, and presto bingo, a 3-year contract extension for MS7, and the end of our Cellar Dweller Era, Scott’s thread title. What’s not to like? Relax! Be happy!!

Not to like...
18-17-1 - being considered successful - yuck
3-year contract extension - ugh!

That extension is at least two (2) years too long for a game over .500, unless there is postseason success to follow.

Well when you put it that way Snives it's hard to argue! Year to date the team has definitely shown marked improvement over years past. Problem is, I'm really not sure how that makes me feel, is it enough to warrant an extension, maybe. My gut, unless UNH pulls off a great finish (6 or more wins would qualify as great IMO), it hasn't been good enough. The decision for the AD is going to be a tough one.

Well, regardless of how long, I believe there's going to be some kind of contract. Money talks. He brought in money. I'd think those donors expect him to
be on the ticket. He's had a 'better season' tho we still won't know how 'good' it was/is until the very end of it. Plus, he has some very influential supporters at the 'Whitt..
Yeah Snively! What's there not to like??!!
Bigger fish to fry tho right now; will Conmy be in the line up? How many goals will BC put up tonight in their post Beanpot revenge of sorts? Will UNH pull a rabbit out of
their stick bags and make it a go? Will Lawlor continue to be a 'hard place to play'???
HR's Predicts
Friday: BC 6 UNH 2
Sat: UNH 2 MC 1 (OT, wins the shootout)

WAAAAY back in the day they offered a membership or had a fundraiser. Pretty sure I still have my USCHO ball cap thank you gift.

That would be an incredibly weak statement of the value of renewing the current coach for a year, much less three years.
A real D-1 head coach, in charge of a traditionally strong national program, competing in arguably the most competitive D-1 conference in the country, should be able to find a way to a win and a tie in these two games. Didn't BC just lose their Beanpot semi to BU? Why are we acting like they're unbeatable in February?? I don't see Jerry York behind their bench. IF these predicted results turn out anywhere near the reality of this coming weekend, I'd be despondent. Especially an OT tie against the 'Mack (even though I pretty much predicted this catastrophic outcome around this time last week) ...
... so I come to the conclusion you've bought the party line, and believe MS7 gets (over)renewed because of his purported fundraising prowess? Maybe if he and TDL are such tight buddies, MS7 can take over the McIntyre project in Portsmouth for him once our steely-eyed AD Rich thanks him for his services, and wishes him luck in his future endeavors away from Durham??
Friday: UNH 3 BC 1
Saturday: UNH 4 MC 1
NOW is the time to put the pedal to the metal, and make a statement of true intent for UNH. If not, get someone in who can next year ...

Fire me up!!! I'm ready to run through a brick wall. Although the chances of holding BC to 1 goal is very slim.

Well Chuck I have always been a 'pragmatic' kind of fan and am applying that to my views on MS7's renewal possibilities. Not sure I've 'bought into'
anything to be honest, just my take on the situation. It helps his cause that the team has had a better season as of late and we'll see how
things go down this tough stretch.
According to this short vid, UNH goes into tonight's game with the Beagles as definite 'underdogs' and sometimes underdogs win big games. Checking myself,
it's not out of the realm of possibilities that UNH can beat them, it happens all the time and this sport seems to garner more upsets than most others?
And if they don't beat MC (regardless of the score) I will be more than despondent, ha!

Well lines are up and the boys are back.
While not predicting a win I always love our chances with BC. They seem to let us play our wide

Trust that these predictions are not sarcasm but rather unbridled optimism.
UNH is 5-13-1 vs Eagles since December 2014, but we won 5-2 at Conte on 15 January 2022 and 4-3 in OT at Conte on 8 January 2021.
Where is the line pairings posted?
