I picked up a single game on Jim last week. I don’t know whether that’s good news because it’s improvement or bad news because I needed more.<\/p>\n
\n
Dave last week:<\/strong> 7-3-4
\nJim last week:<\/strong> 6-4-4
\nDave’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 92-51-19
\nJim’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 96-47-19<\/p>\n<\/div>\nHere are this week’s picks:<\/p>\n
Friday, Jan. 10<\/strong><\/p>\nProvidence at Boston College<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Jon Gillies may be back, but the Friars have hit a few potholes. BC isn’t the right team to be facing now.
\nBC 3, PC 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Home ice may be the deciding factor here.
\nBC 3, PC 2<\/strong><\/p>\nMerrimack at Clarkson<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Clarkson is 12-2-1 against everyone else, but 0-4-1 against Hockey East. That would argue for picking the Warriors, but they’re still winless on the road.
\nClarkson 3, MC 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Clarkson has just enough talent to beat the offensively-challenged Warriors.
\nClarkson 3, MC 1<\/strong><\/p>\nMassachusetts at Cornell<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The momentum the Minutemen had been picking up before the holiday break seems all gone now. Cornell is just too good, especially at Lynah.
\nCornell 4, UMass 2 <\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: If this was a home game for UMass, I’d be tempted to pick the Minutemen. The fact is, it’s not.
\nCornell 3, UMass 2<\/strong><\/p>\nAlabama-Huntsville at Notre Dame<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: It’s great that the Chargers kept their program alive, but at 1-21-0 they’re easy pickings for the Irish.
\nND 5, UAH 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: No brainer here.
\nND 6, UAH 2<\/strong><\/p>\nSaturday, Jan. 12<\/strong><\/p>\nFrozen Fenway: <\/strong>Massachusetts-Lowell vs. Northeastern<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Both teams are coming on strong now, but the River Hawks are the stronger of the two.
\nUML 3, NU 2 <\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This is a tough one to pick given that NU won the first meeting. I assume Lowell won’t hit four posts this time.
\nUML 4, NU 2 <\/strong><\/p>\nFrozen Fenway: <\/strong>Maine vs. Boston University<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The Terriers just lost at home to a 2-11-2 Dartmouth team, running their winless streak to five games.
\nMaine 4, BU 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This one shouldn’t be close. Though it likely will be.
\nMaine 3, BU 2 <\/strong><\/p>\nBoston College at Brown<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Brown has played .500 hockey this year. That ain’t good enough against the Eagles.
\nBC 5, Brown 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Agree. This is BC’s game to lose.
\nBC 3, Brown 2<\/strong><\/p>\nDartmouth vs. New Hampshire<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: UNH may be going places this year; Dartmouth isn’t.
\nUNH 4, DC 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Very tough pick given that Dartmouth made BU look bad at home. Manchester has rarely been kind to UNH either. I’m going Green.
\nDC, 3 UNH 2<\/strong><\/p>\nMerrimack at Clarkson<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: I’d be picking the Warriors to split at home, but not on the road.
\nClarkson 3, MC 2 (OT)<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This is one good, and very hungry, Clarkson team.
\nClarkson 4, MC 1<\/strong><\/p>\nVermont at Colgate<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: The Catamounts are 8-1-2 over their last 11. I’m lumbering onto that bandwagon.
\nUVM 4, Colgate 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I’d feel better if this was in Vermont. No sure the Cats can handle a tough road game against a team that just tied and beat No. 1 and No. 2.
\nColgate 3, UVM 2<\/strong><\/p>\nAlabama-Huntsville at Notre Dame<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: Anything I say at this point would seem like picking on the Chargers. So I’ll just list the score.
\nND 6, UAH 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Second night is typically a lot tighter for the Chargers. Doesn’t mean it’s a win..
\nND 3, UAH 2<\/strong><\/p>\nTuesday, Jan. 14<\/strong><\/p>\nAmerican International at Massachusetts<\/strong>
\nDave’s pick: UMass has struggled in its last few games, but the Yellow Jackets are 1-10 over their last 11.
\nUMass 4, AIC 1<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Western Mass. battle goes to the hosts.
\nUMass 4, AIC 2<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
