    You underestimate the optimism of our coach.

      Well, this was supposedly the year we were going to get it done (ask RedCows, oh wait). Not sure how next year would be a better situation. Now with Jake gone....yeah, I hope Evan is ready to have 20 shutouts.

          If Blais doesn't start winning decisions like this means he is closer to being fired. This reminds me of Eaves last year.

            Dean will retire before he is fired. It will be interesting to see how Trev handles hiring a hockey coach considering that there isn't a Dean Blais out there wallowing in the USHL

                      I agree.

                      You always worry when an active poster suddenly disappears from the Board with no explanation, like Old Pio did last year about this time. Sometimes a poster gets a little peeved or embarrassed and disappears, only to reappear using a different name, but I've seen no evidence of that with Red Cows. You will also occasionally have situations where insults/threats are made privately between posters or perhaps even between family members of players and a poster that causes them to reevaluate the need to post opinions on line.

                      And then some people just decide there are other priorities in life than posting on an internet hockey board.

                      I hope the latter for Red Cows, rather than the former.
                      That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                        I am going to go with the embarrassment one.
