      'spoz I should subscribe to this. Hopefully others will jump on.

      And I'm super glad I didn't start it. I'm bad luck.

        Thank you for a new thread. I was challenged to remember the last page I read on the old one, so I wouldn't waste time finding where I left off.

        Discussion: Read an article that mentioned the ND football coach wanted NBC to change the commercial breaks for the game as to not disrupt the game flow.
        Was Kelly channeling Red B. on this issue? NBC said that the breaks would go from 4 long ones a quarter to 5 short ones.
        This may not seem like a big deal, but what if instead if the 3, 2-3 minute breaks a period, the broadcasters stretch several 'icings' to say 45 sec. run a short ad, in place of the 15 sec. turnover time.
        In the old days CBC would run shot ad's at these types of breaks and did not have the multi-minute stoppages.
        Red has mentioned this in the past and talked about it several times with regard to the outdoor games where standing in the cold can have an effect on the players.
        What do you think? Should we lobby all the networks that carry hockey?
        He is as cool as a bomb disposal technician!

          Brief article about recruit Justin Selman. My kids play in the same program that he played for until last year. Looks like he's already thinking one or two years and he's off to the NHL. I hope he makes it but I lament the days of the four year commitment to Michigan.........

            Although the current group of juniors/seniors seems/seemed fairly committed.

              Can't really complain about the 2010-11 class of Sr. and Jr's commitment.

              The senior class lost Max Pacioretty after 1 season, Aaron Palushaj after 2, and NHL pick Kevin Quick was booted. No NHL success yet for the three.

              The junior class lost Robbie Czarnik after 1.25 seasons. Also part of that recruiting class was AJ Jenks, who verbaled before signing with OHL Plymouth Whalers and ultimately making the US WJC team.

              Michigan's biggest battle lately has been losing verbals/recruits to the OHL....
              Jack Campbell
              Lucas Lessio
              Jerad Knight
              AJ Jenks
              (kind of R Czarnik)

                That's my point.........until the late 90's I think we would have held on to the likes of Pacioretty and Palushaj, at least for a bit longer.

                When my kids skate for Red (Billy perhaps? they'll be the class of 2021, 2023 and 2025 assuming they don't play in the USHL for a year or two) I'm going to encourage them to stay at least 3 years, if not 4, so that they're mature and close to that degree if things don't work out.

                Call me old fashioned.

                  Hey Guys,

                  I created highlights of the Ferris State Bulldogs vs. Michigan Wolverines 1/23/10 game in Big Rapids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq70FxIvDWA

                  Let me know what you think!

                    What do you think? Should we lobby all the networks that carry hockey?
                    I LIKE that idea.
                    The shorter breaks would not impact the flow of the game as much as what we have now but still could add up to the same amount of commercial time.
                    Perhaps rather than lobby the networks we should lobby the Rules Committee.

                          You guys are lucky. We haven't seen the Wolverines play on the Denver Campus since 1980, when U of M was still in the WCHA...
