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

    Fun fact: Whitehead was 96-102-28 in his last 6 seasons at Maine.

    Only if he goes 103-137-33 (.438) over 8 seasons and never finishes higher than 4th in Hockey East.

    I think that both teams would be satisfied with a split this weekend.

    One thing that Maine can do better this season is pass the puck…and we’ve also got a couple of guys that can put the puck in the net when they get the opportunity. Lack of size is a definite weakness though….especially when guys just stand around and poke at the puck…really irritating.

    Not sure if you are a troll or a Maine fan but I was just thinking the same thing. I just want some of the same recruits that Providence, Northeastern and UMass bring in....if Barr can't do that with the new assets and financial support he has.....then we have a problem.

    The head of the Alfond Foundation handed Barr a check for $6 million a few weeks ago. Anyone know what they are doing with that money?

    Vibe on this team is not good so far. Emotionless...yes growing pains but I'm not sold on stocking 2/3 of this team with Canadian Jrs.

    That top line looks better without Nadeau. Hopefully they move him to another line when he gets back.

    Maine dropped to #10 in USCHO Poll.....and #7 in Everything College Hockey Poll. A bit generous but nice to see the respect for the program despite the rough weekend in Hamden. Q rose to #6 in both polls.

    I think that they went a bit crazy recruiting the Canadian leagues. Maine's line-up needs to mirror Q & UMass.

    Agreed. Unless you are getting the top 2 or 3 waterbugs.....you can't have a roster filled with undersized forwards that struggle to score at this level.

    West definitely looking like top dog right now. NIL is going to be an issue. Programs like Maine, UMass, UConn & Providence are going to have to figure out how to raise some money for players if they want to continue to strive for the Top 10.

    I said it has nothing to do with this weekend. Q plays in the ECAC....Maine plays in Hockey East. Who is benefitting from playing the other team?

    I think it's time to end the Q series....not because of this weekend....but because Q benefits from this series more than Maine does. I'd rather take the Penn State approach and rack up wins at home against cupcakes knowing that there are plenty of quality wins sitting there in Hockey East...

    Today's game was lost last night. Like someone said...carbon copy of the BC series last season.

    I'll probably be crucified for this but.....what exactly does/did Josh Nadeau bring to this team (other than his brother Bradley for 1 season)? Anyway...neither Nadeau or Poirier are what I would call "elite"....so their line is pretty much a non-factor.

    No but he looks like he is about 45...yikes.
