So will BU's first Hobey winner be firing BU's most recently departed head coach?? And if he does, do we expect DQ to make his way back to Comm Ave? Inquiring minds want to know...

Lane Hutson turned some heads at the U-18 Worlds. Given that he was a U17 player this year and has another year in the USNTDP, he could turn into a very good recruit. His size might keep him out of the NHL first round talk, but that would be more than fine with me.
Edit: should have put this in the recruit thread, where Rogie has posted some related quotes.Last edited by defkit; 05-07-2021, 08:57 PM.BU Hockey: The trophy case is once again growing

If DQ lands another NHL head coach job next season, I think the door for DQ to return to BU will be shut. However, if DQ either takes next season off from coaching or accepts a NHL Assistant Coach position, it will continue to fuel speculation of the door being kept open for DQ to potentially return.

Adding to the "Terriers in Turmoil" blotter: The Sabres GM is reporting that Jack Eichel wants surgery that's never been performed on an NHL player before. (Herniated disk). Yikes.It Happened!!!!

Whatever pressure Albie might have been under has now been amplified. With DQ now available, what will "success" be measured by for Albie next season?

2. Aside from "speculation", would BU decision makers accept his return?

1. How appealing is DQ to another NHL team? I'm not saying he should or shouldn't be appealing; just looking for your opinion.

1. I think a NHL team that's rebuilding / developing young talent and looking for a coaching change would find DQ to be a solid candidate. I imagine there will be additional NHL HCs let go in the coming days/weeks, so it'll be interesting to see if DQ's name surfaces as a candidate for any openings.
2. I think the AD would be receptive to it if an opening is to arise. Again, what defines "success" for Albie and for BU Hockey next season? It could be a tough sell to those above him at BU b/c DQ already left once (albeit on very good terms is my understanding) and DQ would presumably command heftier compensation than Albie, which BU would most certainly balk at.

I do not see any way Quinn gets a NHL HC job next year. I think he either takes the year off or hooks on as an NHL assistant somewhere or perhaps even AHL head coach. Now I'm curious where Greg Brown ends up as well.
