    UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

    If you were going through a coaching change I guess this is what it looks like. Is this the final year of Bazin’s contract? To have the level of de commits and no new ones seems strange, I agree.

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Since we have a break in UMaine hockey action I want to post highlights on recruits as I watch them play. Last night I was able to watch Charlottetown vs. Cape Breton of QMJHL and future Maine recruit Ross Campbell(#15 in tan jersey) had two primary assists that are worth checking out...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    We wanted him to come in during the fall of 2018, and that didn’t happen. He played throughout the winter and started heating up and in January(I think) he pulled his commitment with Maine and committed to Nebraska-Omaha. Then he really started heating up and closed out the season on a tear...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Amkirby10, go read what Jacob wrote. He said “reasonably touted”. As such I offered up a 3.75 NZ from USHL as “reasonably touted” category. You have introduced “highly touted”. And you introduced it using quotes which isn’t what Jacob even said.

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    One of them was supposedly Sydney Crosby. But that doesn’t seem to really count because that was back in the day when Canadian kids had to choose between major junior vs. NCAA. Crosby had 0.0001% chance of playing college hockey probably. I’m talking about kids that are after 16 and were...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    To commit at 15 you have to commit without the coach being able to contact you. I can only think of 1 that even did that, which was Oliver Wahlstrom, and he pulled his commitment and went to BC instead. How many have there ever been at all? I can only recall Wahlstrom. I mean, if there has...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Reasonably touted would be Killian Kiecker-Olson, he was a NZ 3.75. He lasted 1 season and then transferred to Canisius. In general not many from Minnesota in last 10 to 15 years. Was hoping this could change with Coach Barr because he is from Minnesota and played for Shattuck. But doesn’t seem...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    One thing we need to brace ourselves for is that kids that are from Minnesota that have verbal committed to Maine have flipped when other big hockey schools in Minnesota/Wisconsin have come calling. The Meyer kid comes to mind. Recently Wooten and Montgomery have done this. I really hope the...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    He is a 4.5 He is only 15 right now, but got good press at the USA hockey select U15 festival… Maverick Mckinnon #18 (F, R, 5’8″, 159, Forest Lake HS, 09/14/2010) – McKinnon came to camp as one of the most decorated 2010-born prospects in the country and backed it up scoring 5 goals in 4 games...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    You are now pessimistic after predicting 20 wins for last years team. You are out of sync with reality. You are the George Castanza of the UHN faithful. As you know… UNH has two games in hand, as does Northeastrn. If those were to balance in a likely scenario you would have Northeastern in 3rd...

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    Also, has anyone heard if Langlois is recuperating well? I haven’t heard much. But usually locals at the game get info due to just chit chat at the rink when they see him in the stands watching with suit on.

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    A very interesting stat is that the top three players on the team in the +/- rating are freshman(Marques, Peterson, Langlois). Miguel Marques is leading the team with a +/- of 16. Maine has a net +23 in 5-on-5 play, and he has a +16. So when he is on the ice his line is clearly outplaying the...

    And Drew. Somebody check on Drew. He’s been silent after Maine swept Lindenwood. Maybe WhistleBB and Drew are disgruntled now and forming their next trolling event for after the Denver series???

    Pretty tough schedule ahead. Going .500 over the next 10 would be a decent result.

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    3 wins gets Maine back in the right direction. Hopefully the break gives the boys much needed rest for both physical and mental health. Can’t wait for the Denver series, but will enjoy Christmas in the meantime.

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    Gerrior collects puck off the left half boards, tips to Peterson who wheels and snipes with a wrister. Maine 7-1 Before I can even type this Lindenwood Fletcher scores. Maine 7-2

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    Poirier shoots, goes wide, he then gets it behind the net and shoots it off the goalies back and it bounces in. Maine 6-1
