THAT is what you call a suhhhhhhwwwwweeeeeeet win!!!
Heard on the radio during the long drive home, Robinson stopped a penalty shot by Trivino just before the game-winner. Clutch.
It'll be interesting to see if MS7 sticks with Robinson, or persists with the rotation (and TT)?
WIS prediction: MS7 rides Robinson's hot hand for tomorrow, returns to the rotation next week.
These wins - on the road - against top HE teams are happening often enough, it's getting harder and harder to dismiss it as "they got lucky" or "(Team X) just had a bad night". Heck, this is two straight against a team that swept them out of the HE playoffs almost 11 months ago, in what was supposedly such a mismatch that a lot - LOT - of folks on here dismissed the significance of UNH blowing a 3 goal lead late in the second period of Game One. I mean, Cale Makar was good … but that's a big gap between two programs that has now shrunken significantly.
UNH is now in a 3 way tie for 6th place in HE (level on games with BU, and with 2 in hand on Luce) , and one point out of 5th with a game in hand over NU. The 'Cats are 3-1-0 on their first much-discussed "gantlet" (?) so tomorrow night almost feels (to me) like UNH is playing with house money. Then two apiece with UConn and UVM, which really needs to be at least a 6 point stretch, with BU and UML for two apiece, and not looking so daunting as they may have looked earlier in the season.
As far as playoff casualties this year … UVM and Merrimack look like definites, and after that, I suspect it comes down to either of UConn or UMaine (and you guys know who I'm rooting against there).
If UNH can pull 7 or 8 points out of tomorrow night, and the next two weekends, I say that a 4th place finish is still in the cards. And every weekend further we get into the season without the "el foldo" moment that we all have been pre-conditioned by, then the more exciting this all gets. It's starting to feel like these are not your dad's Wildcats any more. Keep up the good work, MS7!!
