NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. — Merrimack and UConn open a two-game series at Lawler Arena tonight in a rematch of the 2026 Hockey East championship game, which the Warriors won 2-1 at TD Garden in March.
The Warriors shuffled two of their forward lines from last Saturday’s win at Notre Dame. Most notably, Parker Lalonde is back with Caelan Fitzpatrick and Caden Cranston. Last Saturday, Lalonde centered Cranston and Justin Gill. Tonight, Gill moves from the wing back to center between Nick Pierre and Trevor Hoskin.
The rest of Saturday’s lineup is unchanged.
Although it isn’t indicated on the line chart, Linards Feldbergs is expected to start in goal after starting both games at Notre Dame.
Mike Machnik and I will have the call tonight at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+.

Merrimack’s Lines
Is the new year stat supposed to be years of eligibility remaining, or something else? Noticed some seniors and freshmen are both year 4/4?
