    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Thread has been quiet so seems like a good time to bump with a cool update. I had mentioned a while back that I've been compiling some stats and other goodies together. Didn't really have a plan in mind for how I was going to use any of it but I recently started putting together a comprehensive...

    Not entirely surprising but Krebs is listed as senior.

    Not to speak highly about the Wings and their goalie development organizationally (or lack thereof), but Boija did have his big breakout season the year after he went to their dev camp so hopefully the mechanical adjustments have been made to get him back to the guy we saw in 24/25.

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Based on Briere's post-draft comments it sounds like he knows Sokolovskii has at least 3 more years of development ahead of him so not unreasonable to think the path will be OHL>NCAA>AHL. Obviously nothing left to be gained physically for him but his skating is better than most guys his size...

    I can't recall who the previous DSA player was (either Stewart or Peluso) but I believe whichever one it was is now gone.

    I'm trying to think of even was the last player to come from their program... Must be Higgins right? Has it really been that long? You'd think Moore would have funneled at least someone our way in his 10 years with the NTDP...

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Fowler took almost 200 faceoffs total last year, that's far more than the occasional draw. And for someone who hadn't really had those duties before he did well enough that you could project him sticking there, especially over a guy like Scholle. There is a good chance Fowler will be wearing the...

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    I was saying that with the assumption that Scholle moves to the wing and they run some combo of Scott, Fowler, Lipinski, Komarov down the middle which is solid in my eyes. I do not want to see Scholle taking faceoffs any more, it's been brutal watching him get forced into that spot.

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Think this team can be fine down the middle, but I'm mostly concerned about the lack of depth on the LW side. Unless you're swapping a couple guys to their off-wing it looks a little weak over there right now. The Krebs addition to the backend is a bit of a headscratcher. 23 year old ECHL guy...

    I think it had been roughly confirmed he was coming, but Dante Siciliano has been officially confirmed. LINK

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Seems like a stretch to think that bad reputation is at play when Maine has had one of the longer stockpiles of commitments. Wouldn't surprise me if the uncertainty at play with the age-based eligibility model has left a lot of potential recruits holding on committing to play college hockey...

    Not to mention how many athletes have been vilified over the years for trying to make some money on the side. Or all the silly things the NCAA tagged Maine for back in the mid '90s. It's worth the chuckle to go back read some of those violations now, especially with the NCAA citing "lack of...

    If it was in Section G you should have taken it and become one of my neighbors. With the Nadeau fam gone, there will no doubt be a bunch of new STH faces in my area this season.
