Dwayne Roloson coaching to fill NHL lockout void

At Thursday’s UMass-Lowell practice, the player with the best flow on the Tsongas Center ice was a 43-year-old alumnus. Dwayne Roloson, the stringy-haired goalie, was taking a spin in his new role among youngsters who weren’t born when he arrived in Lowell in 1990.

“Different rink, different everything,” said Roloson, who played in Tully Forum from 1990-94. “I haven’t been back for about three years now. There’s even changes from three years ago. It’s totally different. The downtown core is totally redone. So is the campus itself.”
