I doubt this would happen, but why not let teams dress 23 skaters in the first four weeks or something like that? It would be good to give everyone a chance early in the season.

Re: UMaine Black Bears Recruiting
Extra skaters good injury insurance. And better for keeping the big rosters not disgruntled. Guy whos in a sweat suit in the stands will be ****ed, guy who dresses less so even if he only plays 2 shifts
Maine Hockey: I want to believe
43-21-4 (.662) in games I attended over 4 years as a student
104-47-14 (.669) in that time
3x FROZEN FOUR
11-20-2 in games I've attended since. (2-2-1 under Red)

Re: UMaine Black Bears Recruiting
This article states Thiessen's injury wasn't overly serious, which is good news...
https://ingoalmag.com/features/route...ior-a-goalies/
"Unfortunately, his tournament was cut short after he suffered a freak ankle injury while retreating back into his net after playing a puck. The injury wasn’t overly serious, but it was enough to have him walking with the aid of a crutch after the game. The Pistons were also the first team eliminated during round robin play, so Thiessen never received the second chance that he was hoping to get."

Originally posted by Bhall44 View PostI am quite confident. Currently a defensive liability playing his man and needs to learn to stay out of the box coupled with his age makes him a 3-4 year player and I am more bullish on the 4. Binner is morel likely to go early given his all around game, age, and current draft eligibility, even then I would expect him to play 3 years in orono.

Re: UMaine Black Bears Recruiting
I saw Merrimack had a very good recruit, Michael Kesselring, decommit and is open to recruiting again. I hope Maine goes after him. He is a teammate of Lyndon Breen at New Hampton in prep league. Big right shot offensive defensemen are hard to come by. I am surprised he decommited and wants to play in USHL for a year. He would play for Gene Reilly in Des Moines. Maybe he feels he isn't ready yet. He is 75th ranked in north American skaters by CSS.

Re: UMaine Black Bears Recruiting
Good listen on sound cloud where the pipeline show interviews Matt Thiessen headed into the draft...

Says the plan is to play for Dubuque in USHL and then Maine the year after.

Thought he'd be better over in BCHL too. Hopefully one good year and reunited with old pal Dawe.
