1626743420344586240 | So that's enough @UMassHockey for one night. Getting embarrassed on the road at BC, down 4-0 before the 1P is over I do believe UMass will bounce back, this is just a bad season, but the Minutemen have to be concerned in goal They have nobody they can trust to stop the puck | 2 |

1626744098735497216 | @UMassHockey They whiffed in the Portal with Cole Brady, Luke Pavicich so far has been inconsistent at best (to be kind) and Henry Graham is a great story but he isn't a #1 goalie Minutemen are going to have to go to the Portal again in goal, and they need to hit; they cannot afford to miss | 1 |
