New commit listed on Heisenberg's sheet. 6'5" 220 so looks like this center has some size.

Here is another article regarding James Taylor UMaine "commitment", located on the Ottawa Senators (CCHL) website, which confirms that he did play with Thomas Freel, as well as Bodie Nobes.

Looks like a great get on paper. I hear he sings well too.

Hopefully his songs translate to pucks into the back of the net.....

From Larry's article published today.


The team had its first scrimmage on Wednesday and Barr and Breen feel the team looks good.

“The guys had good energy. Our team speed has improved, which is good. But it’s also about details and all the younger guys have to make sure they are playing the right way away from the puck. But when we have the puck, we can get up the ice quicker with it than we have the last two years,” Barr said.

“We definitely have more speed and we have a lot more talent than last year,” Breen said. “We’ve taken a huge step in that department. We will definitely be making a lot more plays this year which is nice.”

Year 3 is generally the year where the big leap happens, and I have all the confidence it will be the same here.

Of all the folks on this thread, you have got to be the last person I ever figured to be a "dirty hippie" type.

In what world does a "James Taylor" end up not skating with UVM or UMass Amherst?!? Sheesh ...

Another '07 prospect on Heisenberg's list: James Bond (A-grade name if you ask me)

You can call him “ACE” according to his profile. Must have some confidence.

Another Mt. St. Charles kid!

After James Taylor and James Bond, hold your hands up if you're disappointed this guy wasn't Austin Powers.

Maybe next year Barr will add Taylor Swift and John Wick to the growing list of UMaine celeb recruits??

And if Barr doesn't give bond the fabled 007 jersey, he's missing a trick. Pure NIL gold ...
