\nJim last week:<\/strong> 7-2-0
\nDave’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 49-21-18 (.659)
\nJim’s record-to-date:<\/strong> 60-19-16 (.716)<\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Black Bears will be looking to redeem themselves after taking a beating at the hands of Merrimack last weekend.
\nMaine 5 PC 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Providence played Maine tough at home, but that should change with a hungry Maine team playing in Orono.
\nMaine 5, PC 3<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Huskies have hit their stride and aren’t about to misstep at home.
\nNU 4 UVM 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: One of many difficult picks among the lower half of the league. For this one, I see a split starting with the Cats win.
\nUVM 3, NU 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: Both teams are on losing streaks right now, but the Minutemen are playing much the better of the two teams.
\nUMass 3 Lowell 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: If Lowell is going to win, it will be Friday night on home ice.
\nLowell 3, UMass 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The easiest pick of the week. The Warriors all the way.
\nMerrimack 6 AH 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Warriors take the Grand Ole Opry by storm.
\nMerrimack 4, UAH 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Minutemen extend Lowell’s losing streak to 13.
\nUMass 3 Lowell 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Minutemen earn the weekend split and take the Alumni Cup.
\nUMass 4, Lowell 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Huskies sweep to go over .500 within the league.
\nNU 3 UVM 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: NU rebounds to earn the split.
\nNU 3, UVM 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Warriors complete the sweep, giving them a 12-4-4 overall record.
\nMerrimack 5 AH 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Yet another win for Merrimack. This team keeps rolling.
\nMerrimack 3, UAH 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: Dartmouth is having a good year; UNH is having a great one.
\nUNH 4 Dartmouth 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Almost want to pick the upset here, as Dartmouth always gives UNH headaches. But I’ll go with records and recent performance here.
\nUNH 5, Dartmouth 4<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Terriers have stumbled a bit lately, but the Crimson have struggled all year.
\nBU 4 Harvard 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Not a chance, Harvard.
\nBU 5, Harvard 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: In the most compelling game of the week, the Eagles extend their winning streak to eight games.
\nBC 4 Maine 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Tough pick but going with the rested Eagles team, even on the road.
\nBC 3, Maine 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: This isn’t just about Merrimack’s home ice dominance. The Warriors are simply the better team right now.
\nMerrimack 4 BU 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I went with Merrimack last week and this game was snowed out. Not changing my mind now.
\nMerrimack 3, BU 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nDave’s pick: The Huskies keep the momentum going.
\nNU 4 Harvard 2<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Preview of the Beanpot semis. Northeastern should win both.
\nNU 3, Harvard 1<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
