Game Story :
Just two days before the Blizzard of 2001 came the "Penalty Blizzard" of 2001 as this game featured 157 penalty minutes, a disqualification, at times as many as six bodies one penalty box. Aside from the penalties, it was all River Hawks tonight as Northeastern was horrible on special teams and in a game with 157 penalty minutes, special teams will determine the game.  

Starting Lineups :

UMass Lowell
F - Kyle Kidney
F - Laurent Meunier
F - Yorick Treille
D - Ron Hainsey
D - Chris Gustaffson
G - Jimi St. John
Northeastern
F - Mike Ryan

Other Notes :
Tonight's action from all around the league set the stage for the Hockey East Tournament. Northeastern will hold the 7 spot in the lower bracket and will face Maine. If they advance they will face the winner of the UMass Lowell/New Hampshire series as the River Hawks gained the 5 spot in tonight's victory. Also, Northeastern held it's senior night tonight and they honored seven seniors : Brian Cummings, Mike Jozefowicz, Matt Keating, Sean MacDonald, Graig Mischler, John Peterman, and Kevin Welch.
