Hey folks. Beginning this week, both Dave and I will be making our weekly picks in the Hockey East blog. Every week, we will both make the selections for the upcoming games, meaning I can kick Dave’s butt fair and square this season.<\/p>\n
Friday, Oct. 15<\/strong><\/p>\n Rensselaer at Northeastern <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Huskies get off the schneid. Jim’s Pick: Huskies can’t slow down Polacek. Massachusetts-Lowell at Niagara <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: After a tough trip to Alfond last weekend, the River Hawks have a much easier road trip this time. Jim’s Pick: The battle of mentor and student goes to the mentor. Providence at Minnesota-Duluth <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Friars got off to a nice start against Northeastern, but Duluth brings them back to .500. Jim’s Pick: Very difficult test for the Friars. Not sure they’re up for it. Maine at Michigan State<\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Black Bears offensive juggernaut keeps rolling. Jim’s Pick: Agree with Dave here. This is one offensive machine. Boston College at Denver <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Eagles squeak out the win in this Clash of the Titans. Jim’s Pick: Incredible early season series. Home ice is enough for Denver in game one. Saturday, Oct. 16<\/strong><\/p>\n Massachusetts at Boston University<\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Terriers win this battle of two very young teams. Jim’s Pick: BU keeps rolling after an impressive Ice Breaker Michigan at New Hampshire <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Wolverines come out on top in this shootout. Jim’s Pick: Another marquee matchup. Home ice not enough for the Wildcats. Connecticut at Merrimack <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: The Warriors get into the win column, a place they’ll spend a lot of time this year. Jim’s Pick: Home ice continues to be a comfort for the Warriors. Massachusetts-Lowell at RIT <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: RIT may have come back to Earth a bit from its magical postseason, but Lowell’s losses went even deeper. Jim’s Pick: Not too long ago, Lowell losing this would be the upset. I’m picking Lowell to win and THAT is the upset. Boston College at Denver <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: On paper this should be a split, but I’m going with the Eagles anyway. Jim’s Pick: BC gets one back in the series finale. Providence at Minnesota-Duluth<\/strong><\/p>\n Dave’s Pick: Duluth sweeps. Jim’s Pick: Agreed. Duluth sweeps. This Week’s Picks Hey folks.
