We talked to Jacob Posik of the Maine Campus, UMaine's student-run newspaper, about this weekend's games. BC takes on Maine in Portland on Friday night and in Orono on Saturday.
1. Expectations for this Maine team were low coming into the season. Have your expectations for the team changed at all now that we're 8 games in?
Going into the year I expected Maine to be more competitive than they were last year, and I didn’t agree with most pundits who picked them to finish last in Hockey East. Now that we’re eight games in, I’m even more optimistic after seeing this team perform that they will finish better than they did a year ago.
