UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

I may have this wrong but this season they gave UNH season tix holders the choice (?) to have this game included in our purchase. Too many people were not happy with not having the choice to attend or not, and to be able to pick their own seats as these were assigned. Maybe another season tix holder can verify how this went down. Next year the game will be played in Portland from what I understand...it. I do not think the new name of the arena affects future games as I believe the game is just going to flip flop between the two teams from now on??

Ps Also just read Maine holds a 3-2-0 advantage while playing the 'Cats at the SNHU FWIW dept

The game tomorrow was removed from the season ticket holder package based on the survey I believe. I was unaware until someone mentioned it. I have great seats at home but got stuck in a corner in Manchester at the perfect height the top of the net was in my line of site, resulting in me watching it on the scoreboard.

If it were not for my kids I would be comfortably laying on the couch instead of dealing with this game. Never mind that it is bad hockey on both sides, parking is tough unless you want to shell out $20 for the garage, and until recently the pregame meal options were limited at best. Looks like Thirsty Moose or The Farm is the call for tomorrow before the game

hopefully 2 newly eligible players for Maine are actually good to make the lineup and play. One kid is a transfer from Minnesota, Hoglund, supposed to be really quick. The other Herner from Czech republic, don't know much about him but supposed to be a good??? Heard that before though :)

I'm told, and had previously posted, that Herner will play his first game vs the USA U18 team on Jan 6. Don't know about Hoglund's probable first game. All I've heard about Herner the Hungarian is "wait'll you see this kid play". I am very optimistic.

Is Herner not eligible tonight or is it a case of waiting for a game that doesn't count? I was hoping to see Herner and Hoglund tonight. It sounds like we're f'ed on Doherty.

Herner is eligible. He has sat out his 19 games. Don't know why he is not playing tonight. It was noted at least two weeks ago that his first game would be January 6.
What is up with Doherty? I have not seen or heard a word about him joining the team second semester. I see that he played one year at Brown. What happened down there? No one seems to talk about it.

I see there is a little video icon next to the game on the schedule. Is it fair to assume that The Extravaganza is streamed on the YouTube channel? How good have those streams been?

Retroactive financial aid. Some of you older UMaine-iacs know the drill. :D

If he is eligible and not playing, considering what I've seen from the D, he can't be all that. If he isn't eligible until USNDT then disregard :D
 
Re: UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

Dawson and Vela out of the lineup tonight...
 
Re: UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

1-1 already

Re: Hoping you're correct ...

Another nice play by Maine, 2 1 UNH, give up a shortie and then give up a 2 on 1 but Rob made the save. Beautiful PP by Maine, NOT

2-2 Maine with PP goal
 
Re: UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

Nice D by Maine letting Kelleher just walk in, 3 -2 UNH, in comes Matty Mo
 
Re: UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

4-2 UNH, Looks like Maine can't get a goaltender in soon enough, D also and while they are at it Forwards and a staff who can get put a team on the ice that can actually compete :)
 
Re: UNH Wildcats v UMaine Black Bears Big Arena Matchup Extravaganza Friday Dec. 30

Nice goal by Fregona for his first NCAA goal. Kelleher seems to have a back thing going on one of those hits. Maine score on PP to keep it close...

Grasso off the ice with bloody nose brief 5 on 3 for the 'Cats... Grasso heads back in.
