UConn just beat Lowell in OT. We are 1-1 with a shootout win as well vs. UConn. We haven't played Lowell yet and have 2 games with them. I wish I knew now today's result affects Pairwise, but probably not much.

Heck of a schedule going forward:

Home and home with BC
Home and home with UNH
Home and home with Lowell
2 at home with Maine

Our fate is in our hands, but no slouches in this list. I'm guessing we need 5-3 to make the NCAA and it might not matter who we beat.

True. 5-3 sounds about right. Starts Friday night @ BC. Hope some Umass fans can make it to BC.
Let’s pack the M Saturday when BC comes to Amherst!

BU is leading BC 3-1 with 5:33 left.

I feel like UMass’ chances at BC Friday night are better if the Eagles win tonight.

BU wins Beanpot 4-1. RL cited playing in the Beanpot as why he flipped from UM to BC.
Two years at BC; ZERO Beanpot Championships….

I could be wrong, but I don't think he was ever committed to UMass.

^ I believe it might have been one of those 8th grade “verbal commitments “ that hockey has been known to have. There is a site that lists 27-28 incoming freshman already.

Huge test this weekend . would love a sweep. that would vault us more spots in the rankings. I do have to say BC's top line is wicked entertaining to watch. Ryan Leonard is exceptional and i can only image when he was younger playing in the driveway w/ John that he just absorbed everything . Fowler is great in goal too. Hoping Hrabel can stone them right out of the gate. We too have some scorers and just hope we can stay out of the box.
BC's powerplay is extremely good. BC has been beatable all season so just nned to come with intensity. gonna be fun!!!!

There was a contest on social media for tonight’s game that offered 4 tickets, round trip bus fare and a $50 gift card to Johnny’s Roadside Diner in Hadley to the winner.

Unfortunately I did not win.

Looking forward to the + !

Go UMass! Beat BC!

He is more than a little bit….13 th in the country in scoring / 7th in HE / missed last 5 / gave Musa a chance to get going - first goal tonight -
1-1 after 1
Referee lost sight of the puck and blew play dead as UM scored …..
