It could work for one game, though. <br /><br />Tight one last night... UMass turned it on early in the third, but it was really the two 5 on 3's that made the game closer than it should have been. If we stay out of the box, tonight should be better.JP from Dorchesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01165104966901598192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-14008830602179736722010-03-13T08:36:07.586-05:002010-03-13T08:36:07.586-05:00Just checked the bracket.

If we win, and Merrimack were to take the next two against BU, would we play #6 Merrimack, or would it re-seed for UNH to play Merrimack and we'd play the 4/5 winner?<br /><br />I'm curious about this because I didn't go to the BC game last night, I was at home watching Terps/Jackets and BU/Merrimack on TV. Merrimack, for those who didn't see, rolled out a strategy of keeping a player way out by the red line, accepting playing undermanned 4-on-5 in their zone, then sending the puck long when they got it out to their 5th guy, who was cherry picking and skating for fast breaks.<br /><br />It was extremely entertaining and very high-risk high-reward. They got up on BU 2-0, but the pressure eventually got to Merrimack, so many scoring opportunities for the Terriers. I'm wondering if the 'mack will do it the next two games against BU and if they'd do it to us as well.Erikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10852682232912278307noreply@blogger.com
