I had a pretty good picks week last weekend, going 17-1-1 (.921). On the year, I am 22-1-4 (.888), pretty good odds for Vegas. Maybe I should hit the tables. Then I remember how I blew an early-season lead over Arlan last year, and get sobered on that thought.<\/p>\n

Let’s see how I can do this weekend.<\/p>\n

Friday, Oct. 9<\/strong><\/p>\n

Syracuse at Northeastern<\/strong>
\nThis one is really hard to pick. If the Orange can shut down Kendall Coyne, they could win, but that’s easier said than done. Northeastern 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friday-Saturday, Oct. 9-10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Minnesota-Duluth at Bemidji State<\/strong>
\nThe marquee matchup of the weekend I think, and the hardest to pick. Let’s go with a split. Bemidji State 2-1, Minnesota-Duluth 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n

North Dakota at Minnesota State<\/strong>
\nI expect the Mavericks to be better this year, but not North Dakota better. North Dakota 4-2, 4-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

St. Cloud State at Minnesota<\/strong>
\nSt. Cloud ruined Merrimack’s D-I debut last weekend, but the Gophers are in a different stratosphere. Minnesota 4-1, 4-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Penn State at Boston University<\/strong>
\nThe Nittany Lions looked good against the Gophers last week, and should challenge the Terriers, but fall short. Boston University 4-2, 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clarkson at Vermont<\/strong>
\nThe Golden Knights should roll on through. Clarkson 4-1, 3-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quinnipiac at Maine<\/strong>
\nA long bus ride should equal tight games, but I have to favor the Bobcats. Quinnipiac 3-2, 2-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rensselaer at RIT<\/strong>
\nTwo ties wouldn’t surprise me. Rensselaer looked good last weekend against North Dakota, and this is RIT’s first series. Rensselaer 3-2, RIT 2-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Merrimack at Robert Morris<\/strong>
\nI was surprised by the Warriors last weekend, and Robert Morris looked dreadful. Let’s pick a split. Merrimack 2-1, Robert Morris 3-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saturday, Oct. 10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Syracuse at New Hampshire<\/strong>
\nThe Orange get on the win sheet. Syracuse 3-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saturday-Sunday, Oct. 10-11<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ohio State at Wisconsin<\/strong>
\nJenny Potter has the Buckeyes looking good, but the Badgers present a different test. Wisconsin 3-1, 3-1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sunday-Monday, Oct. 11-12<\/strong><\/p>\n

St. Lawrence at Boston College<\/strong>
\nA tie in St. Lawrence was the only blemish on BC’s first half last year. I image they’ll remember that. Boston College 4-1, 4-2<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
