Maine did not lose at home all of last year, going 18-0-1 (3 wins were at "homes away from home" in Maine). Maine is 35-0-3 in its last 38 at home dating back to a 12/7/90 loss to Lowell, 5-4. In nonleague action, Merrimack split at Western Michigan, scoring four goals in the third period of the first game to overcome a 4-1 deficit and win, 5-4, and then dropping a 5-2 decision in the rematch. UNH's Brett Abel came within 1:16 of shutting out Vermont in his first game as the #1 goalie for the Wildcats, 4-1. BC opened up with a 6-2 win at Army as Rob Canavan got a hat trick, and Lowell held on to beat Colgate, 3-2. The only teams not in action were BU and Northeastern. All eight HE teams play nonleague games this coming weekend against teams from the CCHA, ECAC, DivII, and Canada, and BC plays at WCHA affiliate Alaska-Anchorage which served notice that it may be just reloading and not rebuilding with its sweep of Northern Michigan. This should be a good test for BC. HE teams put up a 4-1-0 nonleague record in the first weekend of play. Recaps of the Maine-Providence series have already been posted, and I'll be doing one of the Merrimack-Western Michigan series too as we returned from Kalamazoo today with the split.
