    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Some head coaches prefer that their assistants stay quiet, and don't step on the HC's messaging. All depends on the staff and the personalities. For example, Jerry York was always very much in charge, but if things got heated and messy, Luce Canaan would do and say things that Jerry himself...

    It's not up to the assistants to take the lead in situations like that. It's on the head coach 100%. And whether it was worthy of an overturn is beside the point. You have to make it uncomfortable for the officials to make that tough call against you, right from the start. You actually have...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    You'll already know this, but after last night's usual coaching assignment, I caught the 3rd period on TV and saw the series of events that unfolded in the closing minutes, starting with the very obvious boarding non-call to Ring, the UMass goal that followed immediately after, the replay...

    Actually, the funniest thing of all is your attempts to deny and disavow who and where you are. Talk about a soulless swamp denizen. And the best part is, it was your own vanity that cracked the case. 😂 The jig is up, cpo pottymole. You're not fooling anyone ...

    It may all be moot regardless, as the Whale Family was fully participating in last night's Senior Night festivities. So I doubt very much he's coming back.

    Grouch is not Bobo, e.cat - I promise. I know them both, as I know you. But coincidentally, Grouch and Bobo both hail from the same hometown. Bobo has a few years on the Grouch. I touch bases once in a while with Bobo, he's alive and well, and I suspect he'd be on here more often if the...

    Vividly remember Dave a/k/a dabigbadcow standing alone in the corner closest to the ice in a myriad of rinks around the Northeast, hands in his coat pockets. sizing up the games from as close as possible. He was close pals with Josh Gibney ("Gibber") who was also a regular on here, and was the...

    As much as I would welcome a return to those good ol' Wild West days here at USCHO ... I'm not sure the current state of the UNH fanbase is demonstrably any different than the UMaine threads used to be back in the days of internal strife over Coaches Whitehead and Gendron. No Good Ship Lollipop...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    So here's the deal, cpo pottymole. When you're a resident of NH, you get a say in how NH is run. But with you being a megalomaniac and all, somehow you think you have a say in how we run things up here. Wrong. Why don't you concentrate on fixing the clusterfu@k that is Baltimore, or the...

    It has been admirable to watch you vouch for this dimwit's right to his own opinion, but as you so well point out here, his agenda is only slightly to the right of Mao Zedong and Vlad Ilyitch Lenin. He writes five-figure checks annually to UNH from the comfort of the DC swamps, just for the...

    I am thinking MS7 has a lot less going for him as his contract is expiring than he did last time around. If he's gonna pull out a second winning season in his contract year (again), it's gonna look a whole lot more different than last time did. Charm Offensive 2.0 ain't gonna fly, if only...

    Keep in mind that Junior Jet-Eye pottymole doesn't live in MA, and probably never has. And there is no comparing Baltimore to Boston lol 😂 😂 😂 😂

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I share your sense of doubt on this issue, FU17. I agree with the Grouch that optics at this point is likely a big consideration over in Thompson Hall, so an all-out media blitz (lol) on this topic was always going to be extremely unlikely. With the long gap since the original announcement a...

    Bazin would be a major upgrade from MS7, if he were let go, and was so inclined to take a pay cut into the $300K's to come work as HC for a rival HEA school. Having said that ... I'm pretty sure Lowell would offer him a fallback option in their Athletics Department somewhere, as opposed to...

    Your mistake is assuming the AD and her staff give a flying crap about publicizing the icky and unfashionable sport of college ice hockey. Then again, across the street, Coach Davis & Company are something like 9-20 overall, finished 8th (last) in America East, and play against top-seeded UMBC...

    Coach Umile definitely had an approach to his long-term team building ... one that mostly served him well, and created a lot of loyalty and consistency in the program. But no one bats 1.000, net even the best in the business. Foegele had a decent but not great frosh season IIRC, and probably...
