    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Interesting read RMS analysis of the junior leagues translating to college. It points out, not directly, how far below expected point totals the UNH CHL 1st year players performed.

    Seems a weird change for a player that seemed to be coming on for UNH down the stretch. It is hard to look good on a bad team and still he seemed to be winning on the wall and getting the puck to the net. It's not like he didn't have playing time. Pushed? Writing on the wall?

    Physician, heal thyself Only footage I can find in a quick google is the ECAC ALL Rookie Team Svartstrom starts at about 1 minute mark. 4 of the 5 goals highlighted are at the crease.

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    I am curious about style of play for the in coming players. It is easy to assume that Svartstrom as a large frame forward is going to be good around the net. However his game might be from the half walls or he could be like Wisconsin's Montgomery how is a similar size yet more crafty with the...

    If only he worked as hard as a coach as he does to get an extension in a contract year.

    This feels a little worrying. Just looking at his numbers in the USHL and how those historically translate into NCAA hockey I would have wanted him this year minimum splitting time and allowing him to compete for the job outright. This feel like a fish on the line, that if you leave it in the...

    For me on this item the jury is still out... or maybe it is perspective First will there be more movement, absolutely! The reality is sometimes program and player don't mesh for whatever reason, ask JJ Wiebusch. He is at Penn State which is one of the "big $$$", schools, newer facility (13...

    Ok.... But it isn't a chemistry problem. It is a matching "talent with task". If you have guys good a banging in rebounds but all the other players are shooting high/wide there are no rebounds to work with.... That is strategy and game planning.

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    The real question is can the staff put in place a winning system to take advantage of the talent. I hope I am wrong and at the same time there is nothing in the MS7 era that indicates that is probable. If what's past is prologue, the most likely is a fairly good first half. Potentially even a...

    Does seem weird to have done this much roster work and have ZERO goalies. "Sometimes they should call this game goalie, not hockey." Jack Parker But not alone as MSU and QU (maybe more) also cleaned out there goalies.

    This is a problem. Souza has proven he only seems to dance when his head is going into the guillotine. It even felt a little that way last off season with CHL players and all the roster turnover. It was the same last time his contract was up, better product on the ice and better coach...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    So UNH is now going to have some big bodies upfront. What is the offensive strategy going to be to take advantage of them. This year with MacDonald and Newcombe the plan seemed to be let them fight for position and then... not shoot, pass them out of position then shoot and shoot it into the...
