    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Are you watching the same team as the rest of us? Over the course of MS7's tenure, I can think of at least two dozen games where the team simply gave up and just went through the motions. That's a failure of leadership, both from the coaching staff and the captains, who may or may not be voted...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    If he's such a recruiter, why do draft pics leave, thinking specifically about Sidarian with 41 points at Michigan Tech and Conmy at BC? Identifying talent is easy. The problem that MS7 has is keeping said talent and helping them develop accordingly. If anything, players seems to regress...

    Tonight is going to get awfully chippy

    Spoke to him today. Excited to play, but "sore"

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    New found energy? At this stage of another lost season, moral victories no longer matter. This isn't house league, it's Hockey East.

    Not for the last four or five years

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    That has been de rigueur for the last couple of "events" but apparently this one is upstairs. Our AD fka SB is going upscale because she understands the natives are getting restless

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I laughed when I received this knowing MS7 won't make an appearance and will probably be curled up in the fetal position after losing to UMASS

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Let's just hope the connections that MS7 has don't push for his extension(s) in perpetuity in pursuit of vesting a 20 year pension as a state employee.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    LOL! Unless you are a C Level Executive at a Fortune 500 or publicly traded company, the days of outrageous severance packages and golden handcuffs disappeared about 15 years ago. Also, remember that you get what you're able to negotiate. Most people don't and they reap the spoils of not being...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    You know what's good as well? Sarcasm. If I ran my company the way MS7 manages this team, I would have been fired years ago. Ah, the difference between working in the private and public sector is so acute. Government work is great work...if you can find it. Not at the top of the payscale...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Mrs. Grouch and I said the exact same thing after last week's debacle.

    Plus, Blue Skies feelings would get hurt.

    UNH Dining does facilitate concessions.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    The charm offensive. Oh, the irony of that statement considering that MS7 has been in the Durham Witness Protection Program ever since that 20 win season (powered by Helsten standing on his head for the year). Since he has been in absentia from the public sphere since his contract extension...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Staying on the ice and not getting hurt would be a logical first step

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I agree with you that Marty should project to be a bottom six forward in the NHL, a character guy. That's why I think Europe is the more viable career option.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Agreed, he is the C...if he doesn't transfer or go pro. Word out of Toronto is that Leafs are very high on him. While I think he has a pro future, he's a marginal NHLer. I see a long career in the SHL, Singapore or the NL, however. Lavins' success, hustle and attitude is in spite of MS7, not...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Lord knows no other Division I team will be beating down his door with offers. Perhaps, he could lead the Learn to Skate Program at The Rinks in Exeter and ultimately launch a new business offering locker room design and esthetics consulting. He's Durham's leading expert in this area and is...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Let's hope UNH doesn't self restrict itself by only hiring an alum as its next coach. While there has been scuttlebutt about Ayers being approached and murmurs surrounding Bogie with his NHL playing AHL coaching experience, the time has come to fish in unpolluted ponds. Fresh blood, new energy...
