    That goal made the MSN homepage (I refuse to watch ESPN anymore), bad things always happen to this program. A fluke goal for sure however, but it's always something.

    Tech has really nice jerseys though, very sharp.

      What!?! We have a nice thing!?!?! Awesome!

      You all know what this means, right? Ian will redesign the jerseys in the offseasn and the ugly husky head will make a comeback.

        Looking for ideas where to look for a possible penalty for a player dropping items on to the ice from the players box. Like a stick

          I don't get this. The character/employement of the AD? What about the other successful programs? What about the call on the head coach for the women's bball team that everyone had given up on before the season even started? That looks pretty good right now. I know many people on this board think nothing but hockey matters, but there's a whole lot more for the AD to do that just hockey.

            Do you mean in a rulebook or an example from a game?

              I am looking for the rule book. I've downloaded the NCAA Rules. Looks like ther is a rule but can't find it in the rules.

                I did get the puck from him once though, playing in the boards, other than that we got all walked over by him
                I'm amazed that Schooley is still on campus. He quit on this team and has watched them struggle for months. I do think that losing Schooley and Kattelus hurt this team a ton on top of the all the injuries being mixed in.

                This team really is nothing like what Jamie envisioned when he was recruiting and building this team. It really make you wonder what it would look like if they were full strength.

                I would say there's no chance Suzanne is gone in a month. With the success of the football and both basketball programs, plus she's not the one that hired Jamie in the first place.

                  Pres. Mroz is the person responsible for making a decision about the Head Coach. Unfortunately, he's preoccupied with trying to keep the classroom doors open and figuring out to make Tech a private institution. Plus, I think there's a lot of denial going on. Why else would the University spend the money to build skyboxes in the smallest arena in the WCHA with the worst attendance.

                  Let's face it, Tech is not a hockey school any more. The hockey program has been losing for as long as the current students have been ALIVE! The basketball and football programs are more successful and less expensive to operate. At a luncheon last year with Pres. Mroz, he did not even mention the hockey program until he was asked about it. And when I asked about a new coach, he just shrugged his shoulders and had a blank "will see" look on his face.

                  I hope I'm wrong but I don't think the Administration is going to do anything to improve the program and my fear is that when Big Ten hockey starts up, the Administration will take the opportunity to kill the program. It's all about the money these days...

                    Oh, I don't know, it may have something to do with the huge monetary donation that was made for that project.

                      Well that explains that. Too bad they didn't endow a Chair for a new head coach...

                        if you want to make a $100k donation to pay for Russell's salary next season...I'm sure that would help if you want him fired...put your money where your mouth is.

                            Apparently, Genoe will be on TSN's Off the Record in Canada tonight. Chances that this is about that goal...
