I have to preface this by saying that I'm not the best one to do this, 
because I don't see the details of the game the way most of the people 
posting to this list do. But, the game was good, so here goes.

I thought Maine played a terrific game for 2 periods - with the let-down 
coming in the 2nd. I've been at all the home games - none of the away - so I 
don't know how it compares to BC and MMass, but enjoyed the pace and 
intensity that Maine played with. I thought it was the best game I'd seen at 
the Alfond this year, even though we lost.   After Greg Moore scored in the 
2nd, we let down some, and I for one was happy to see the zamboni.

The 3rd period was one of the best periods of hockey I've seen in a long, 
long time. We dominated the puck - had lots of scoring chances, and 
unfortunatly weren't able to put one in the net, but it wasn't for lack of 
chances.  Curry did a great job in net for BU.

Chris Hahn looked really strong, I thought, and impressive considering it 
was his first game.  He looked like a veteran out there - not a first year 
player.
