    (Not that I can fathom why, say, a CBSCS would want to show a team like Maine... They must still be drinking the vintage Kool-Aid.)
    Or they believe Red's gonna bring them back. And when he does, they wanna be there!

      Well I HOPE that Romeo has fantastic practice week and forces the hands of the Coaching Staff to start him ahead of McGovern/Morris in Gm.#1....maybe the TEAM would rally around the seldom used netminder...they still might NOT win but maybe there would be some gut check motivation on the part of the TEAM to at least play for there teammate. Well maybe/maybe not. ???

          Someone (using this term loosely) in the NU thread has "sources" that Romeo is starting this week. So I guess you read Red's mind

            If true, that's amazing. Gendron typically provides no information whatsoever about the status of his players.

                        I guess I just want to see if this kid(#30)has something all of us wanted to see this season: IMPROVEMENT in Net...I really hope he gets a chance. AND maybe it will get into the heads of NU. Nothing to lose, everyone(including myself/sadly)has Maine going out in 2 games...we shall see come Friday.

                          Red would have to completely suck as a judge of talent if this kid had any chance to show us much at this point in the season. Sure he could win so could any of the goalies. I'd have to question the coach if Romeo starts either game this weekend.

                            Surely an area that could be bolstered next year.

                            The goaltender coach position has been suspect for some time. Even when Bishop was here he had some talent but I never thought he was that good. He needed position training. When he went pro he got good coaching.

                              Problem with Bish was that he spent half the game overplaying the puck, miles from his crease. He used to drive me crazy, but I love watching him now that he stays home and tends his net.
