UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

I think it’s business as usual. We never get much for details as far as what is happening financially. You or someone else could file a FOIA request and maybe get some details that way.
I think UMhockey91 should just storm into that athletic office or Coach Barr’s office and demand answers.

Coach Barr: You want the truth?
UMhockey91: I deserve the truth.
Coach Barr: You can’t handle the truth.
Coach Barr: Son, we live in a world that has pucks, and those pucks need to be shot by men with sticks while skating on blades. Who’s gonna do it? you UMhockey91? While my antics behind the bench may be grotesque and incomprehensible to you, I save goals. You WANT me behind that bench. You NEED me behind that bench!
UMhockey91: I DEMAND THE TRUTH! DID YOU ORDER A CORVETTE?!?!
Coach Barr: YOU’RE GOD DAMNED RIGHT I DID!!!!

As much as you are a pain on the UNH strings, this is very funny Sparkman. Love it. We certainly hope Maine goes on a winning streak to aide in boosting our NPI. Go Black Bears!!!

I definitely think that Larry Mahoney or someone in the Bangor area sports media should.

So saving a few pennies on DEI really isn't such a big deal for you.😂🤣😂👍🏻
 
So I might regret saying this 28 hours from now but I think Maine has a comfortable wins this weekend. This is not a very good team who has some wins over other bad teams. I get that Maine isn’t in the best form at the minute but still think they dominate Lindenwood.
 
Beautiful. That's encouraging.

Between coach(es) and players or between the players themselves, if you know? Just curious.
Before he lets us know, I’m placing my bets on Boija. He likely started hollering at his defensemen again. He has a fiery personality in a goalie we haven’t seen except maybe Snow? Though I feel like Snow always directed at the opposing team never too much against his own. Boija appears to be directing a lot at his own d men and officiating. He’s got to calm himself down, he has a lucrative career path ahead of him as long as his own ego and mind doesn’t steer him of course.

Albin is going to be benched for the year if he has one more outing where he stinks

You're nuts, Drew. Lindenwood has beaten Denver at Magnuss. Lindenwood is #17 NPI. This will be a long weekend for Maine if they don't play well.

I never heard much about Snowie in that regard, but I knew Jimmy Torts personally and watched him play dozens of times. He was a great guy off the ice but a relentless chatterbox in net. I once heard of his D yell "Shut the fuck up!" at him during live play, true story.

He needs to sit and stew for a couple more games IMO, figure things out.

If Maine had the '24/'25 Albin this year, I think they'd be 13-4 and we wouldn't have our panties in a bunch.

If Barr trusts him enough to give him a game this weekend I'm okay with it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets this weekend off up until the Denver series at least. Probably would be a good thing for him to get a full mental reset during the break.
