Umass really ran the table this year, hell of a season and they proved why they earned it.
Actually, I’m glad you explained the animus against UMass. Valid point.I am a bitter old man.
A Massachusetts kid transferred to UMass from Providence over the summer, and a kid from Cape Cod might finally get some ice time this year, so there is finally going to be a Massachusetts native playing for the state's "flagship" university.UMass is not a Massachusetts team at all. After Minnesota there is no state that produces more hockey players than Massachusetts. But UMass, the state university, does not have a single man from Massachusetts on their team. Screw them. I'd root for BU to beat BC before I would ever cheer for those carpetbaggers out in Amherst.
I'm not a fan of shootouts. A tie is a tie. It happens. Sometimes, like last night, it is the proper outcome to an exceptionally well played game by both sides.Just watched the highlights. Should have gone out and found NESN somewhere. Old school BU sweaters. Classic game, minus the shootout, of course.
