\nJim last week:<\/strong> 2-2-1
\nDave’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 56-37-9
\nJim’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 55-38-9<\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: I’ve been picking Merrimack all season long and and been right almost every time. But there’s something about this game that spooks me. I’m going with an upset of the Warriors in their own barn.
\nUnion 2, MC 1 (OT)<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Not spooked here. I’m going with the Warriors. I do remember a day Pops called me Benedict Arnold for not picking Hockey East in non-league play.
\nMC 4, Union 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: St. Lawrence hasn’t been lighting the world on fire, but Vermont has been going up in flames.
\nSLU 3, UVM 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Another flip flop from Dave, I think Vermont can win at home.
\nUVM 5, SLU 3<\/strong><\/p>\n
