It’s that time of the week again – pick six games from the two conferences (including the conference crossover games) and make our best predictions. However, each week’s picks come with a little statistical analysis, and this week’s match-ups even come with a few wrinkles – both hockey and non-hockey. Will those factor into the games at all? Last week, I went 4-1 (.800), and improved to 7-6 (.538) on the season.
\nECAC Northeast<\/strong>
\nWestern New England at Curry, 4:35 p.m. Saturday<\/strong>
\nShots, shots, shots. Curry has scored 14 goals on 76 shots in its first two games, while Western New England has scored 11 goals in its first three games, averaging more than 35 shots a game. A minor distraction: Western New England’s football team, on the same day, is playing at Salisbury (Md.) in a first-round game of the Division III national championship tournament. Pick: Curry 4-2<\/strong>
\nSalve Regina at Suffolk, 7 p.m. Saturday<\/strong>
\nAfter last weekend’s 10-2 drubbing by Curry, the Seahawks must right the ship, but do so against Suffolk, a team that’s also in need of an early-season win. The Rams gave up 16 goals in their first two losses at the Pepperidge Farm tournament last weekend.
\nPick: Suffolk 5-3<\/strong>
\nJohnson and Wales at Wentworth, 2 p.m. Sunday<\/strong>
\nWentworth forward Casey Shade has opened the season on a tear — in his first three games, the senior has scored four goals and an assist. However, Johnson and Wales has its own scoring threat in junior forward Danny Kaufmann, who has scored four of the Wildcats’ six power-play goals. Pick: Wentworth 3-2<\/strong>
\nMASCAC<\/strong>
\nWorcester State at Fitchburg State, 4 p.m. Saturday<\/strong>
\nTravis Bertolotti and Thomas McAleer each averaged a point a game in Fitchburg State’s first three games, and were two of seven different players to score goals for Fitchburg State in that stretch. A pair of sophomore goalies have backstopped Worcester State in the early part of the season – Bryan Kalczynski and Taylor Fant. Pick: Fitchburg State 3-2<\/strong>
\nSalem State at Massachusetts-Dartmouth, 4:30 p.m. Saturday<\/strong>
\nSalem State came off a 10-day layoff entering Thursday’s game at home against Fitchburg State, and quickly had to shake off the rust; the Vikings will play their second game in three days when they face the Corsairs. Phil Bronner leads Mass.-Dartmouth with four goals and an assist in its first three games. Pick: Salem State 4-1<\/strong>
\nWestfield State at Framingham State, 7:30 p.m. Saturday<\/strong>
\nScoring hasn’t been a struggle for Westfield State in its first four games — being outscored and outshot was the struggle in the early part of the season. The Owls’ first four opponents held an advantage of 155-105 in shots, and outscored the Owls 16-11. Pick: Westfield State 5-1<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
