    Well, there's that... Who'll want the job if Barr bails on it? (And, just for the record, I was -and AM- still on board with his attempt to put out the dumpster fire that Red started.)

    Yet, this is still Red's team for the most part, I get that... A bunch of grinders; not even close to being as talented as was Tim's worst-ever roster.

    Next season will be my tipping point, one way or the other. I like the cut of Barr's jib, and we all figured he'd need at least 3-4 years to resurrect anything resembling a winning program anyway.

    Still, a .500 or better record next year will be the litmus test as far as I'm concerned.

    • First you lose big.

      Then you lose close.

      Then you start winning.

      Maine's on step 2.

        I think this fits, Maine is close. If Sway was still here they'd have a bunch of wins right now.

        • Swayman wouldn't help them score goals.

            This. Goaltending (or at least Ostman) is not the problem. I happen to think he's quite a good goalie as a matter of fact.

              You don't many goals with Sway. Ostman hasn't looked as sharp on Saturdays

                    I fixed it for you. I didn't realize any posters on here were so sensitive

                    Maine got 90 grand from the game also. I didn't realize BBall teams were paying for patsies to come to there arena like Football does

                        Actually, not true. Great goaltending gives the D and forwards the confidence to take more risk and generate more offense without as much fear of phkn up.
