Game 6: UMass-Lowell at UMD

We solemnly swear to not make electricity jokes.

This marks UMD's first Friday night home game of the season. It also marks UMass-Lowell's first game outside of the state of Massachusetts (four home games and one at Merrimack so far for the RiverHawks).

As I wrote about earlier, I expect this to be a very interesting weekend. UMD likes to push the pace and use its speed. UMass-Lowell is closer to a lockdown-variety team, and a very fundamentally sound one.

Too bad healthy scratches can't just leave the team for the night, because the Wild have healthy-scratched defenseman Christian Folin, and his younger brother Niklas -- a freshman -- is a top-pair blue-liner for UMass-Lowell.

Lines?
