Re: UMass Lowell 2015-2016 Season Thread II
"what could we do with XXXX team's recruits" -: You can't look at it that way because skill is just a part of the puzzle. You also have to take character and how each specific player fits into a certain role/system. You have to stop looking at the other teams and what they are acquiring and comparing to what Norm is looking for. He is much more focused on depth, two way character players verse building a top primadonna line. Would you rather have the "top skill players" that folded against Lowell Saturday night or player that will fight to the end (ie, Gamberdella).... He knows his wheelhouse for this program and he focuses on that market. How many Hockey East Championship games in a row does he have to make to give him that credit?
