Actually I count 3-2-2

vs UMass 1-0 L
@ BU 1-0 L
vs UNH 5-0 W
vs ALA 2-2 T
@NU 0-0 T
vs PC 4-2 W
@UML 4-0 W

In total 6 goals against. 3-2-2 record and his team was shut out in 3 of those games.  You can't say that is a letdown ESPECIALLY when you compare to last season (see below)

>Just like last season when it was 6 Friday losses out of 7 Fridays... or something like that.

Jimmy's nights practically the same time period:

2/1 @UNH (Manchester) 4-2 L
2/7 vs BC 5-2 L
2/14 vs PC 5-1 L
2/21 @UMass 4-2 L
2/28 vs BU (DOYLE) 4-2 L (Jimmy won the second game of the series the next night)

SO the team really tanked last season giving up 22 goals against in those 5 games.  Only 4 of which were Jimmy's games (those are the first night of the series games).

I don't know how when you look at the two seasons you can even come close to saying there is some kind of "letdown" trend this season.  The team runs into some hot goaltending and loses a couple of games is not nearly the same as last season when
the effort wasn't there consistently the second half, as shown by the high scores against.
