We already have enough Brown connections in the UNH program already, don't you think, Snives? Whittet has been there for 17 seasons as head coach, and only two (2) barely winning seasons, with most seasons being less than 10 overall wins. This kid won three (3) games last season. Why, Snives, why???
Hit me with the sales pitch, Flaggy ... see if you get halfway through without bursting out laughing. No way the current crew could attract this kid to Titletown.
Wiebusch is from Wisconsin and with their success this year i'm sure their one of the front runners. Silverstein if promised to be the number one goalie might be a little more logical but don't hold your breath.
Like Dan said a couple week ago UNH has eleven defensemen including the two new recruits. I'd say at least two more are gone.
Hahaha! The sales pitch starts and ends with “pretty pretty… PLEASE?!”
Why, indeed! Because MS7 gave up on our last Tyler and look what happened. Here is a chance for MS7 to make up up for that mistake by going with another goalie named Tyler. But, more seriously, I think that >0.900 sv%’s the past the past three seasons on an atrocious team is commendable. And what Dan wrote!
Absolutely yes.
You'll note Dan's caveat for the "eye test" on the Brown kid. Please put me down for that, too. Good (not great) goalies on crappy teams can pile up a lot of meaningless saves against opponents who might be resting their top six forwards later in the game for the next evening's game, which Brown's case would usually be against ECAC travel partner Yale. Gotta think most ECAC opponents would see Yale as the tougher of the two, and Brown as more of the doormat. Who knows, right??Why, indeed!

Well you hate to see it but it's the way of things...hope they are building the best roster possible...interesting times ahead! Welp off to WARM WEATHER in Sin City...Jellsville see you eventually at some point...staying at NY NY. Don't really have a dog in this hunt...I tend to go with the 'underdogs' and I guess in this situation it's Wisco? I should be in Denvers corner as my DIL went to Denver...like their coach he's done alot in his tenure there.
Safe travel Ref!
Well, the Big10 did not win alpine skiing, which went to Utah, for the sixth time in the past seven years.
I think the sales pitch is irrelevant if the checkbook isn't thick enough.
Yeah, you never really know with those AHA transfers. I've seen quite a few come over and have massive drops in productivity, however, Trevor Hoskin was an exception this year for Merrimack. He lead the Niagara Purple Eagles in scoring with 39 points in 36 games as a 20-year-old freshman and won AHA Rookie of the Year, then this year with MC as a sophomore, had 35 points in 34 games, tied for second on the team.
Hoskin also enjoyed the benefits of a coach this past season who knows how to teach the game and develop his players. Big difference.
If I'm a player with realistic hopes of a future pro career, there is no check big enough to convince me to play for a program that won't help develop me, that's short-term thinking. I want to play for a program where they'll develop my game, to the point it allows me to earn much, much bigger rewards in the pro ranks.
