The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
Many of us thought before last season that with so many returning for a fifth year that the blue line would be a strength. And I thought that Whale would be another Hellsten given a poster’s comments on the Alaska Anchorage thread. So, I believed 20 wins were imminently plausible.
For this...
Having a hard time wrapping my head around this one. And equally difficult for me to accept that BF will be our most experienced blue liner this coming season. Thinking theme music from the TV show Twilight Zone.
I disagree. There are four-game, Div 1 tournaments throughout the regular season. We just do not get invited to them any longer. Here is an opportunity for UHN to initiate an annual Granite Beanpot tournament against three other in-conference teams that we would be playing anyway, generate some...
If we substitute UVM, Maine, and UMass, I am in favor (the reason that I suggested Granite Beanput instead of NH Beanpot). I think that it would be untenable to mix Div 1 and Div 3 teams.
For sure on Yukon, as they could be a more likely #1 seed than Bentley, but they are still playing important games at Hartford Civic Center, I think, so no problem there, or would that be considered a neutral site?
I have a friend, not a hockey fan, with former students who are very successful and well-connected in Manchvegas, so I will explore Granite Beanpot possibilities with him. 🙂
I think that the big sheet worked in Umile’s favor with the smaller and speedier players that his assistants were able to recruit. And I think that the big sheet should have helped MS7 recruit those kinds of players also. UNH has never produced many future NHL players going back to the smaller...
Yup, and even 5-10 years ago, Eric MacAdams, Kohei Sato, and Eric Esposito maybe did not have goal scoring in their skill sets, but at least they weren’t “gassed in the third period.”
I think that Grasso is an enigma, as he also was minus 73 in his four years of USHL, minus -27 in his three years of ECHL and AHL, but is now plus 4 in Euro this past season. At least steady improvement in his career plus/minus, as opposed to his five-year decline in points at UNH, although did...
