    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    With TvR being a few years older than Pesce, and also being a valued bottom-pairing guy, I suspect he'll be neck-and-neck with Langway in the end as far as total NHL games played. Keep in mind that Langway also played half a season in the WHA in between his final UNH season, and winning his...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Interesting you say that, cement head. Coach did try to remove her from his program after her frosh season. UNH admin wouldn't let him. Oh, the irony. Nothing better than watching you railing on incessantly about "not knowing the story", then stepping in the deep doo-doo in the process...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    One correction (thanks Grouch) and one blatant oversight (JB) of arguably the most successful player to emerge from the latter years of the Umile Era. Oops! I'd forgotten Gagne had gotten drafted, since TBL never offered him a pro deal. But no excuse for overlooking Pesce.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Haven't been too many high-level pros coming out of the UNH program lately. The vR brothers are obviously still going strong (UNH got three years out of Trevor), somewhat to my surprise in the case of James. Sadly, Poturalski turned out to be this generation's AHL All-Timer a la Darren Haydar...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Classic plea deal, after the University went out of its way to leverage trumped-up charges to convince Coach to drop his claims (as follows) ... I'm not here to speak for Coach (although sometimes I feel that way) ... but I'm sure he wishes it hadn't turned out that way. Yet considering the...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Let's also not forget that UNH Hockey finds itself where it is, largely because Coach Umile sponsored an inexperienced MS7 as his successor. You generally get one shot at something like that, and *maybe* if you make a good selection that eventually moves on to bigger and better things, those...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    It's really a pathetic existence that potty lives, emily ... imagine if you have no friends to begin with, then you alienate yourself from folks who you considered to be your old (online) friends after threatening to doxx them with DM's they thought were to be kept private ... you reinvent...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    UNH's version of media-friendly "kangaroo court". Yet despite all these alleged transgressions, the purported "Woody Hayes of D-1 college hockey" was able to get subsequent employment, both in the private sector and (again) in the Woke world of academia, without any issues. Maybe because for...

    Not taking the bait, loser. Your true identity is known, and the funniest thing of all is that you ended up busting your own cover. Pride goeth before the fall.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Alex Carr got out onto the ice after PC's first SHG, and scored within seconds of the restart while UNH still had time left on the same power play. Notwithstanding this, the 'Cats later conceded a second SHG on another PP, IIRC they once again had five forwards out there ...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    McCloskey had no such history, was faced with an insolent, profane AND recalcitrant player, and forced the player to take heed. The player should at least have been suspended for insubordination, but Coach tried to work through it and even let her dress the next game before her parents...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    First, who said anything about being "offended"?? It's a simple matter of right and wrong. Yes, Blue Skies wanted out of the extension they'd just inked, but he couldn't well just come out and renege on a contract, could he? You know better than that. You think the U's hands are tied with...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Are you serious, Darius?? Woke was born in academia, well before this all went down. Maybe it wasn't called that at the time ... but reflexively defending the person who initiated the incident, just because that person fit a certain category, and likewise punishing someone for the same reason...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Snives, I know you are a fan of irony and karma ... as to the irony, it should be noted that Coach McCloskey's accuser, who by all accounts was insubordinate and running her mouth with a profanity-laced tirade directed at him at the time of the jersey tugging "altercation", finished off her...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Don't ever doubt for a second that Coach Umile was completely self-aware during his time in charge at UNH. I truly believe the only time he took his foot off the gas pedal in terms of hiring quality assistants was at the very end, after Borek left and Dick had to know his own time in charge was...

    My Over -50 team plays our games sometimes on a field at the SUSC Epping field complex that is named after Nate.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    That was the plan. In retrospect, it's clear he was too inexperienced for the job. I do still think he underestimated the demands of the job, at least in part due to the fact that Dick was in the soft landing portion of his otherwise impressive career, and Souza just assumed this is the way it...

    ... and three or so weeks later, O'Connor is throwing the puck into his own net, and Providence is on their way to the Cianci-Patriarca Cup a/k/a 2015 D-1 title.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Not feeling it this weekend ... probably still struggling with the total el foldo the team did the last time they faced PC, when the Friars snoozed through the first half of the game, and then fell behind briefly to what turned out to be a disallowed goal, then flipped the switch and totally...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Relevance??? UNH was still putting NCAA tourney level teams on the ice well past this self-reported slap on the wrist offense. I do not doubt for a second, however, that Blue Skies used this event as the basis for not ever letting Scotty B replace Umile.
