    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    potty is a megalomaniac who pays lotsa money so he can waddle out to center ice with his receding hairline once or twice in a lifetime to fluffer his heroes. The idea that some of us have even better access to more unfiltered and unfettered info - for free - makes his itty bitty wittow brain...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Agreed, why would Cashman ever want to leave at this point? Snives will kill me, but this is the best candidate for the UNH HC job, familiar with Hockey East and the ECAC from his years as an assistant, and now enjoying unprecedented HC success at a smaller school where he is likely paid less...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    So I'm going to take the following unsolicited quote, freshly out this morning from someone very close to the '99 team, commenting on Souza's standing that season (and there are a few on here who will know but not share who is the source of this assessment): I truly feel for Mike Souza. He was...

    Winner winner, chicken dinner. No more excuses, it's been done before, it can be done again. UNH Hockey just needs a new leader to light the way ...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    With all due respect, the days of the "open letter" to Coach Souza have well passed now. I know the poster means well, but the tone is far too patronizing for a guy who has consistently put himself and his personal needs ahead of the program for the better part of the last decade. Here's my...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    IIRC someone posted a table on here earlier today showing UNH was either oldest or next to oldest team in Hockey East this season. Just because 21 year old Canadians are "freshman" players doesn't mean they're young ... it means they're out of paying pro options, time to get a degree for free.

    Hopefully. He seemed curiously unstressed tonight. That could go either way, but I'm pulling for a self-aware resignation with a comfy landing spot elsewhere.

    bakchk20 may have the most perceptive comment on this point. At least to me, dark jerseys almost always look more imposing than white jerseys. The NHL flip-flopped on this protocol a decade or two ago, now most home teams are wearing colors, and most road teams are wearing white.

    Happy MBPBEGAM "playoffs" night, y'all!!! One program says goodbye to its old barn, and the other says goodbye to its underachieving head coach. Fitting!! Final Score: @NU/Chestnut Hill 4, UNH 1 Another season comes and goes in Titletown, hopefully the guy in charge is humble enough to...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I'm actually hoping the pro leagues are stuck close to where they are for a long time. I don't think it's a coincidence that all four league currently stand at between 30-32 teams apiece. The NBA and NHL would struggle with further expansion to walk the fine balance between getting every team...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I'm totally in favor of leaving it alone. The conferences have been their worst enemies with their all-inclusive conference tourneys devaluing the regular season schedule enough already. UNH made it to the FF under Umile 3 out of 4 times from a 12 team field, and only in 2003 in the inaugural...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Rich Gale had a pretty decent MLB career, mostly with the KC Royals, and started two games for them in the 1980 World Series. Funny old article below: https://www.milb.com/news/gcs-11758490 Wasn't Chris Serino the Baseball head coach at some point in the '90's? IIRC a backup goalie named...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Fair points both ... but neither of those non-calls put the 'Cats up a player, they more or less rescued UNH from going down a player (twice). The extra skater during the goalie pull miscue seemed super creative though lol. I've never seen that call ever before, in any setting. I suspect...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Some head coaches prefer that their assistants stay quiet, and don't step on the HC's messaging. All depends on the staff and the personalities. For example, Jerry York was always very much in charge, but if things got heated and messy, Luce Canaan would do and say things that Jerry himself...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    It's not up to the assistants to take the lead in situations like that. It's on the head coach 100%. And whether it was worthy of an overturn is beside the point. You have to make it uncomfortable for the officials to make that tough call against you, right from the start. You actually have...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    You'll already know this, but after last night's usual coaching assignment, I caught the 3rd period on TV and saw the series of events that unfolded in the closing minutes, starting with the very obvious boarding non-call to Ring, the UMass goal that followed immediately after, the replay...

    Actually, the funniest thing of all is your attempts to deny and disavow who and where you are. Talk about a soulless swamp denizen. And the best part is, it was your own vanity that cracked the case. 😂 The jig is up, cpo pottymole. You're not fooling anyone ...
