Things to note:

Leveille's fall was nasty, I was about 10 rows up from the bu bench.  Hope it's not serious.

Tyler went out in the first, missed what happened, but he went off in agony.

Bu goal was kicked, Benedetto did frantically wave it off, then changed his mind..........

Winning goal looked like a break for bu while we changed up. I can't be positive but it looked as though the player(can't remember who it was) came from the Maine bench and just caught up to the scorer as he shot the puck.

Maine played exceptionally in the first, had 18 shots on th scoreboard, then only 3 for that horrble second.  They played like they had the game in the bag and lack enthusiasm completely.

Third period was a bit better than the second, but that secand was horrible.

No quesyions asked they deserved that loss.  Can't possibly hope to win if you play two periods like distracted puppets.

Hope all is well with everyone. GO BLUE! GO PATS!
