    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...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    ... 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.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    As you well know Snives, Lake's protagonist eventually ran out of luck, and in a very catastrophic way. So we agree, no one wants to see it turn out that way for MS7. Nor did we want it to turn out that way for Walshy. Nor for Red, nor for Kullen either. It's not an easy job, that's for...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    There are some obscure clues strewn about this thread over the last couple of weeks or so. Mostly mine, but others from fellow posters, here and there. I hate to be vague, but I really don't want to totally bust his cover at this point ... every village does need a good idiot to (using his...

    potty gets grief on here for a lot of reasons, too numerous to list here, but it has little to do with "maintaining anonymity". Although now that potty's hopes for anonymity are a thing of the past, it's kind of become a moot issue. 😂 The availability of/accessibility to information around...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Question: maybe I'm missing a key piece of info here ... but how would the organizers of the UNH Hockey golf fundraiser know The Grouch's identity, so they could in turn deny him access to volunteering for their event on that basis?? I mean, with some sleuthing, you can eventually figure...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Some of us have speculated about certain possibilities ... would MS7 resign a year early? Might Jimmy T. slide down from upstairs and do an interim HC role for one season to give the program a chance to breathe and take some time to get the next step(s) right? If MS7 does stick it out for the...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Our current AD has never really impressed me as someone who views this job as anything but a placeholder and stepping stone/resume builder for her future dream job, probably back at Princeton. Some of the scuttlebutt I'm hearing lately has fallen very comfortably into place with those early...

    I've been looking for the Walshy & Umile commercials for Tri City Dodge for decades now ...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    From what I'm hearing lately from pretty reliable sources, the situation behind the scenes with UNH Hockey is an absolute train wreck. I'm not in a position to reveal some of these tidbits - at least until I get some second source confirmations to back it up - but if even half of what I'm...

    Nothing is guaranteed, of course. I don't think anyone has the slightest clue as to what kind of "coaching style" Ayers would bring with him, any more than you guys at BC would have the slightest clue as to what "coaching style" UNH's Jeff Guiliano (a BC alum) would have if he was ever tabbed...

    Theoretically, yeah, they could still be playing hockey on March 16th. However, any chance of that being a home game is super remote, if not totally impossible.

    LEGIONS, I tellya. Our eldest was still a young-ish teen when we wandered into a small Chinese take-out on Rte. 108 in Newmarket which had limited sit-down capacity at the time (it's still there, with either less or no sit-down capacity) after a home game, which was followed by a FoH event...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Lucky guess, if I'm being honest. But I've coached teams since I was literally a HS kid, and for the last 25 years consistently, at a lower level in a different sport ... so I've seen a lot of my teams (and their opponents) and come to understand that many teams experience their ups and downs...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Overconfidence is a strong drug. It makes one relax, and lose sharp focus needed to get positive results. A two hour bus trip doesn't help, and if you take your eye off the ball puck for just a moment, you find yourself unexpectedly behind, and your opponent is instantly energized in front of...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Ref, you gotta look at things this way ... what if this was UNH's way to raise more funds to buy out a certain underperforming HC? Not sure how many season tickets are out there, but what if it's made known that the $40 increase (at say 1,500-2,000 season ticket holders) would go towards a fund...
