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.
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.
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.
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 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...
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.
