With Dave on injured reserve, I went ahead and had my best week of the year to take a big lead in percentage points.<\/p>\n

Jim last week: 8-1-1
\nJim to date: 135-62-25 (.664)
\nDate to date: 123-65-24 (.637)<\/p>\n

Friday, Feb. 21<\/strong><\/p>\n

Massachusetts-Lowell at Boston College<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: This is by far the most difficult series to pick. But being that Friday is at Boston College, I’m going with the home team.
\nBC 4, UML 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vermont at Merrimack<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Another difficult series to pick, but I think that Vermont should have the upper hand here.
\nUVM 3, MC 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boston University at Notre Dame<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Notre Dame took three points last weekend and you have to believe they will take four at home.
\nND 4, BU 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maine at Northeastern<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Wow, I didn’t realize how difficult a week this is to pick. Again, home ice matters here.
\nNU 3, Maine 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Massachusetts at Providence<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I think it’s about time Providence gets back to the winner’s circle.
\nPC 4, UMass 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saturday, Feb. 22<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vermont at Merrimack<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: I don’t pick a lot of road sweeps in Hockey East, but I think Vermont can pull it off.
\nUVM 2, MC 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boston University at Notre Dame<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: The Irish play themselves back to playoff relevance.
\nND 5, BU 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maine at Northeastern<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: If Maine were a better road team, I’d be picking a split. Reality is it is not.
\nNU 3, Maine 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Providence at Massachusetts<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: Even on the road, Friars complete a much-needed weekend sweep.
\nPC 4, UMass 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boston College at Massachusetts-Lowell<\/strong>
\nJim’s pick: It’s hard to think about picking against BC, but this is my upset of the week.
\nUML 3, BC 2 (OT)<\/strong><\/p>\n
