It's the law of Hockey east averages : "If there are two games, one of them will be a nail biter"

I feel bad for the janitors who will have to clean up my finger nails in section 316.

Maine was the first team to score, but one goal leads were not safe tonight as the Friars came back less than three minutes later. Maine put another one past sophomore goalie, Nolan Schaefer, but thier own goalie, Matthew Yeats, couldn't stop Peter Fregoe's shot that tied the game at two just ten minutes later.

Maine wanted to score another, and they did just a minute after the fregoe goal, but Providence wouldn't let their Bears walk into their cave with a lead after two periods. Frair standout, Devin Rask, scored to tie the game with less than two minutes in the third.

Providence's Stephen Wood scored the goal that gave Providence it's first, last, and only lead of the game; but this was the lead that sent them to the finals where the will face #1 seed Boston College in the Saturday Championship.
