    I tend to agree with you and I thought it was an interesting topic for mid July. It will be interesting to see if it works, I am not sure with a trip to the Frozen 4, name of Penn State and B10 Hockey they needed an elevated profile. At the same time I can see Gadowsky getting annoyed loosing...

    For attendance... According to Gemini... PSU published 2024-2025 - 109% 2025-2026 - 111% (about 135 more people per game) I am guessing 100% is seats and over is standing room(?) ... And at some point the fire department is going to say that is it.

    The greatest economic engine Massachusetts has is a number of private universities around Boston that have done a fantastic job of getting federal (and other non state) funding and spinning out start-ups around 128. That magic engine isn't from some state policy.

    Not defending Plattner or the Nazis... The word swastika comes from Sanskrit svantike which means "good fortune" (ironically). The symbol was first used in Eurasia 7000+ years ago and you can still find it on temples (Buddhism, Hinduism). The Totenkopf also pre dates the Nazis and comes from...

    Demographics is destiny To UNHs credit they have been discussing and thinking about this for about a decade. Now, did they make the right moves, I don't know, certainly debatable. They have a couple reports they follow. The budget cuts are painful and only publicly discussed at the time...

    For me the question at the Junior level is really around the USHL. Where does that league end up. Does it hold its current position in the development pipeline or do top USHL players end up in the CHL? What is the value at the player/family level of USHL vs OHL? Does the CHL expand and...

    I think there are essentially 2 high-level strategies. 1) Pick a system and go find talent that fits it. My favorite sports strategy example was Patriots with Tom Brady. That offense was built on short-quick passes where he could see the defensive issues most of the time before the snap...

    OK - I am happy about teeing you up. This is the type of numbers based hockey discussion I appreciate, particularly in the off season. After 1 year the RMS Hockey numbers seem to indicate 4 tiers of recruiting landscape: Tier 1 - USHL and OHL Tier 2 - WHL and QMJHL Tier 3 - BCHL Tier 4 -...
