Weekend Preview: BU @ Vermont

Yet again, this weekend could decide the the fate of not only the Terriers but the team the are playing, this time BU will take on The University of Vermont for a pair of games up there. Do to Hockey East being such a tight race, BU will look to take two from the Catamounts and rocket them in to a posable tie for second with Boston College. Vermont on the other hand, sits in 9th and will look to move up and tie BU in the standings (24 points) by taking two games.

Looking at UVM
Though Vermont played well in the first half of the year the have cooled off and now sit in 9th in Hockey East and out of  a playoff position. They also have only won one of their last 8 games but have tied four of them including last Saturday night, as they skated to a 3-3 draw with UNH. Playing at home in both of the games will help but I think that BU is two hot right now and will not lose a game in this series.

The last time they met....
was in late November. The Catamounts got two quick goals in the first but then BU battled back to tie the game with about 3 minutes left. Corey Trivino was the one who scored the game tieing goal.
