    Folks are convinced its Torts? That ain't going to go over well, that name won't fill Alfond on its own, thats for sure.

      Not to toot my own horn, but didn't I say for years be careful what you wish for? He definitely isn't my first choice either, but I sincerely hopes everyone gives him a chance. Our support is what the program needs to get back to where it was (a coach like Shawn would obviously help to, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards).

This promises to be an eventful weekend.
        Posted on "the facebook page"??? Who's page?

        No offense to Jim, but if we hire Jim Tortorella, and it took this long to do it I will be completely underwhelmed! Had heard rumblings they were waiting for NHL season to end to talk to a few applicants. We hear there is an impressive group of applicants, but they only confirm the same 4, for the most part unimpressive lot, I refuse to believe this. If it is Jim T., then clearly we got the wrong Jim and this will do nothing to fire up the fan base. Unless of course John shows up and challenges to fight us unless we throw our support behind Jim.

        Guess I'll wait like the rest of you. Was at Maine with Jim, good goaltender, has had a nice career in coaching, but talk about a "safe" and "dull" pick. Isn't that what we had before?

          BREAKING NEWS!

          Well, not really. Not even worth clicking.

          ...you think Bananas is a good name for a giant bear.
          ...you would riot after hockey games but its too darn cold.
          ...you think hockey is the only sport that matters.
          ...you hate UNH.

            I'm not going to get upset over something that hasn't happened yet.

            But if it's Tortorella, I won't be that happy.

              The Facebook group that had been touted in this thread has morphed into a group for University of Maine Hockey Fans. It's where Bob posted his letter (via Laura Reed) before coming here.

                  I'd rather have him than Tortorella, but it's hard to get excited about either one.

                    Who knows what is right at this point, you have guys digging to get the scoop and throwing names out there. Not sure why you'd have to protect Oz's name from being made public, he doesn't even have a job.

                      It's on Twitter via Mike McMahon so I can confirm that Maine hasn't made a final pick yet. They have announced that there will be an announcement on Tuesday at 4:30, but they still haven't decided what they're going to announce yet.

                        Now THIS sounds like the University of Maine athletic department we know and love.

                          Mahoney's story says the same thing. I hope they don't blow this.

                              Too late.

                              According to Jeff Cox the finalists are Osiecki and either Gendron or Tortorella.

                              That'll sure get people excizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
