Re: UML Offseason Begins
I don't know if anybody saw this yet... I'm sure they must be selling these in person, though....

quibbles... would be nice to see a league logo on these I know the 99?-03 replicas do as well as the 04-06? replicas also. I think the blue looks faded in the picture... I think UML's blue is darker... though to be honest, if I were to get one of the blue jerseys I'd like my hands on an authentic... granted that's almost always the case, but it looks like there's a leap between what I've seen and what is shown in that link.
edit: to be fair, i still don't have my hands on a proper gameworn with a league patch... just the "game worn" chiefs jersey.BS UML '04, PhD UConn '09

No matter what happens, those "sieges a chaud" for the entire coaching staff are going to be "muy caliente" next season. The players are going to be warm as well.
I'm sure the topic will be key for discussion on the board for the rest of this month as well as during the 2011-2012 season, especially if there is no marked improvement.
For me, the college hockey fan takes over for the playoffs which are already in progress. Hopefully, it won't be a usual "Big Four" showing when the HE teams are paired to four. I'm sure all of the pundits will pick Merrimack to lose to Maine. Personally, NU could be poised to steal the series from BU. Unless Madore stands on his head, BC and UNH should easily make it to championship weekend.- John

Re: UML Offseason Begins
From this morning's Lowell Sun.....
Officials from the UMass Lowell athletic department met yesterday with hockey coach Blaise MacDonald to discuss his future with the team, according to sources.
MacDonald, a Billerica native who has coached the River Hawks for 10 years, has one year left on his contract.
UML was 5-25-4 overall this past season and finished last in Hockey East.
While no decision was reached yesterday, the university is expected to make an announcement about MacDonald's situation later this week.
Interesting to note.. The university has already canned one coach this week, Kathy O'Neil of the women's basketball team who had been with UML for over 25 years.UMASS LOWELL RIVER HAWKS HOCKEY
