Re: Now. Who is coming to East Lansing
One thought would be Gwozdecky. I know there have been a lot of grumblings about his contract, and he has MSU roots. I'm not saying that it will happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if Gwoz wound up in East Lansing.North Dakota

Re: Now. Who is coming to East Lansing
This is absolutely the best thing Rick Comley could have done for the program, given the current trend. I will echo the sentiments of many that personally, I have nothing negative to say about the guy given my somewhat limited interaction with him. We avoid any sticky contract situations, and just as importantly, he didn't wait until the end of the season to announce and tie the program up for a full recruiting cycle. Hopefully a successor can be determined very soon.
We need to cross our fingers that we don't lose a significant number of the recruits already committed.
The downside of course is how this may affect team morale. My hope is that this takes a certain amount of pressure off the kids and things can open up a little bit. I really hope that if they don't play to send him out with an upbeat finish, they will at least play for a great amount of personal pride.Last edited by owslachief; 01-25-2011, 02:43 PM.

Re: Now. Who is coming to East Lansing
Gwozdecky turned down MSU before the last time they were searching for a coach. If DU goes deep in the NCAAs this year, I would bet DU will give him the big raise he is looking for. If DU craps out early in the NCAAs again, all bets are off. Hockey is the mothership at Denver, and they have proven that will pay top five money for high performance, as Gwoz enjoyed in 2005. And not all Big 10 hockey coaches make big money...

FlagDUDE, not Appert.Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.
