    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Up until Notre Dame and UConn joined the league the schedules were always fine. You had maybe one or two games against bottom feeders and that would be it. At this point if the league went back to playing each team three teams it would be a big improvement.

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    I think a lot of the schedule is self serving. It makes the record look better and the AHA/Independent schools are better NPI value than NCHC/Big10 teams. Money obviously plays a part as well.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    Fixing who pays and how is part of the solution, but I think you need to fix compensation as well. We pay way more than people in other countries. There should be a better system for compensating victims of medical malpractice as well.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    Democrats want to do some good things as far as expanding access to folks with limited means, which is commendable, but to me the fundamental issue is there is way too much cost in the system. Both parties have too many sacred cows to make meaningful changes.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    Not sure I’ve ever seen a post on USCHO I’ve more strongly agreed with. The whole system is completely nuts. There are so many people making so much money on how the system is constructed right now I doubt it changes anytime soon.

    Dump Term 2 Part 5: He Didn't Specify Which Civilization Would Die...

    Not directly related to Trump, but Scott Jennings meltdown on CNN last night is one of the funniest things I’ve seen awhile.

    Ostman allowed two goals on 35 shots in his full NHL debut last night, make of that what you will(and obviously a huge congratulations to him.)

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    All of these guys seem pretty solid and this looks by far the biggest amount of talent Barr will have brought in. I wasn’t that impressed with the CHL guys he brought in last year and he has had success with transfers so nice to see him go back to that.

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    To be fair, I think he was probably right. Phonegate was one of the most ridiculous things that’s happened in sports in my lifetime.

    I think who comes is a lot more important than who leaves. It will be interesting where the dust settles a month from now.

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

    Just compare what they’ve said publicly to the fine print. It’s right on the donation page. I looked at the system’s FS for the first time today and it’s pretty shocking. The system barely collects any more tuition/R&B revenue now than they did 10 years ago. Their expenses in that time have...

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

    They’re marketing this revenue push as trying to make teams more competitive when they’re really dialing for dollars to balance the books. I get there are major financial challenges at the school right now, but they need to be honest about them and not try to pull the wool over peoples eyes.

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

    It’s his money, he can do whatever he wants with it. I’m not concerned at all with that and my posts didn’t have anything to do with it. My problem is with how they are trying to sell this fundraising push to average fans/general public/whatever you want to call it.

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

    The phrase ‘including, but not limited to’ gives them carte blanche to do whatever they want with the money. In a literal sense this money is staying in the program, but I’m sure there is money behind the scenes that it is offsetting the donations, if they need them to.
