    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    As much as I would love a win (and think it is certainly possible) after the effort this weekend I’m not sure I see it happening… Based on comments that the seniors weren’t present for autograph signing after their special day on Saturday, I’m wondering if some of them are looking more towards...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I agree I’d have much rather watched Coombs to see what he has. I apologize if my message about Whale came off as wanting him to come back. I think he has value, and I was moreso just questioning his return because Souza really seems to have leaned into going with experienced goalies these past...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I agree I don’t think quite a major, it looked like the hit to the back wasnt square to the numbers and not quite 4-5 feet from the boards, which I think they look for. Still… if it was called on the ice I don’t think they would have overturned the call. They really seemed to put the whistles...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Another who I have concern for leaving is Gagnon (mentioned earlier) as I imagine he will be sought after for his superb FO skills. I could see a top 5 team in one of the major conferences very interested in that. Also Ryan MacPherson. He’s a draft pick and I thought showed marked improvement...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I feel MS7 has been more reluctant to pull KC recently (as long as he can) as UNH almost always seems to give up the ENG shortly thereafter… UNH seems to play best at 5v5 as we have seen how many SHGs lately? Same goes for 6v5 where we have seen many instances of the opposing team literally...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Philbrick is a NH native I would be surprised to see him leave. My big worry (and I imagine the same for most) is Lavins. The guy gives 100% every game no matter the score, and to the detriment of his own health. If I were MS7 and coming back next year, slap the C on him immediately after the...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    My guess is if UNH moves on from MS7 you will see an uptick in STH next year, even if there’s a mass exodus in the portal and we go 5-30 or whatever Barr/Carvel did in their first year at the helm. People will give a new coach a leash of at least 2-3 years to figure things out before bashing...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I also agree with this sentiment, and think there is less good will backing MS7 now compared to 2023-2024 timeframe. I would point to the pervasive pessimism on this board, comments on social media, and also certain chants that have been spoken at the Whitt this year. I don’t recall it being AS...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I think we can all agree we haven’t been happy with the results on the ice the last 7-8+ years, and we all have the right to vent our frustrations about what we think is the root cause of the problem, how to fix it, etc. We can agree to disagree on many of these points. With that being said, I...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I stand corrected - off to Walter Brown against Northeastern. Again should be a winnable game, but the goose egg this weekend Doesnt provide much confidence… I hope to be wrong.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Welp… not the best way to send out the seniors. That BS non call on Ring notwithstanding… we finish EXACTLY where we were last year: 1 point ahead of UVM for the HE basement. Remind me, what’s the definition of insanity again? Off to Lawlor on Wednesday night. While it should be a winnable...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Listen… I don’t want to get int state politics here. Like HR, I’m here for the hockey. With that being said, comparing NH to Haiti without the Caribbean is a bit much hyperbole, don’t you think? We are all here because we love UNH hockey, which is a big part of what makes New Hampshire special...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I sure hope not! But I wouldn’t be surprised if Bazin is given a bit of a leash, maybe with another 2-3 year contract - again given his past success. Looking underneath the hood a bit more, yes Bazin hasn’t been his old self the last couple of years, BUT the last place finish in 23-24 was...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    My big question is, do we actually think they will start next week? I imagine the plans have been in place for some time (I haven’t been to the Whitt in a bit unfortunately, so I don’t know how long this display has been there). Especially with regard to your other comment about more imminent...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I remember Norbert said that - I was moreso curious why the school hasn’t made a public announcement about this? Or at least I haven’t seen anything on it. I would feel this would be something worth mentioning in the news, on social media, etc. But it’s been crickets it seems. Did they send...
