Hockey East had a tough weekend and many of those losses extended to Jim and me.  We both believed a little too much in the league. We’ll be hoping for better results this week for all concerned.<\/p>\n

\n

Dave last week:<\/strong> 5-5-1
\nJim last week:<\/strong> 4-6-1
\nDave’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 13-8-2
\nJim’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 9-12-2<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Here are this week’s picks:<\/p>\n

Friday, October 26<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boston College at Massachusetts-Lowell<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: This match-up between the preseason number one vs. the number two ranks as the best of the weekend. If this were March or April, I’d lean toward a BC club that would be peaking for a run at another national championship. But this is October so home ice will rule (with a big assist by Doug Carr).
\nUML 3, BC 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This is my first of what may be a few coin-flip games for me this week. I think the atmosphere at Lowell will be a good one, but the BC team the River Hawks face is equally as good. I’m going Eagles here.
\nBC 3, UML 1<\/p>\n

Maine at Providence<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: It’s pretty difficult to pick the Black Bears on the road on the heels of them getting swept at home.
\nPC 3, Maine 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Agree with Dave. Maine has shown me nothing thus far.
\nPC 4, Maine 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Northeastern at New Hampshire<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Northeastern has gotten off to a great start, but I’m a UNH believer.
\nUNH 4, NU 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Love the way the Wildcats are playing right now.
\nUNH 4, NU 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Massachusetts at Boston University<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The Minutemen put a major scare into BC and they may do the same thing to the Terriers, but I see the same result.
\nBU 3, UMass 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I don’t think this game will be as close as Dave does.
\nBU 5, UMass 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vermont at Merrimack<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Merrimack’s home opener ends in celebration as Sam Marotta records his second career shutout.
\nMC 2, UVM 0<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Not picking a shutout here but think this has the potential to be a close game. Mark my words: Vermont leaves Merrimack with points.
\nMC 2, UVM 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saturday, October 27<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boston University at Massachusetts<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The Terriers finish off the tough end of the sweep with Sean Maguire bouncing back from a tough introduction to collegiate hockey and collecting his first win.
\nBU 4, UMass 3<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This is where I’ll have the confidence to pick UMass as my upset of the week.
\nUMass 4, BU 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maine at Providence<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: I suppose this is a split on paper, but I’m still reeling from Maine’s struggles.
\nPC 3, Maine 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I’m with Pops here. Reads split, I’m picking sweep.
\nPC 4, Maine 2<\/p>\n

New Hampshire at Northeastern<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: I’ve got a tough time picking against UNH, but home cooking will be good for the Huskies.
\nNU 3, UNH 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: The Wildcats will continue to surprise, even away from home.
\nUNH 4, NU 3<\/p>\n

Vermont at Merrimack<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The Warriors go to a perfect 2-0 at home.
\nMC 3, UVM 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I feel like this game will be a tie, but will pick the UVM upset.
\nUVM 2, MC 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sunday, October 28<\/strong><\/p>\n

Massachusetts-Lowell at Boston College<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: BC rebounds with an impressive win back at home.
\nBC 4, UML 2 <\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: BC finishes off another weekend sweep, this time at the hands of an NCAA team a year ago.
\nBC 3, UML 2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
