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.
It's not unexpected that a couple guys would sign pro deals.
I'd be more worried about a potential issue if some players we aren't expecting to leave end up hitting the portal.
I'm a bit surprised Josh didn't play himself into more than a 1 year offer with them (especially after turning that same offer down last season).
Wish him the best either way, the timing feels right for him to leave. Don't like rooting for the Habs but hope he can carve out a nice role with them.
Wonder if it makes sense to add Ricards Tralmaks (LINK) to the uncommitted section as well. Eduards was a Red guy but can't hurt to keep tabs on him just in case.
I read into it more as probably not so many young players all at once (if avoidable), and to be better prepared to acclimate them to what a jump it is from juniors to college.
It sounds like Barr kind of owned that he wasn't ready for that and it caused a lot of growing pains throughout the...
I saw enough from Lipinski this season that I'd want him back next year.
Won draws at the highest rate on the team at 61% (which was T-4th highest in the nation) and that was much needed. His defensive metrics were also pretty strong, if he actually leans more into his size and adds some more...
I know I'm not alone in thinking that Komarov would take a step forward this year. His play driving fell off a cliff as he got exposed to more meaningful minutes this year and his defense also took a hit. Pichette and Gerrior were both very effective players so if Barr can add to the offensive...
If the incoming class next year starts with Mistelbacher, Voronin, Lafton, and Calvert that's really good in my eyes. Not sure where Barr is going to look to bolster the center position, but we definitely need some play drivers there (Scholle and Komarov aren't it IMO). I do wonder if Maine will...
Team had a couple good chances but the lack of bonafide finishers is apparent. Hoping for a third period BC meltdown to make the drive down here worth it. Not feeling great about those prospects right now tho.
The rebuild could have been even worse coming into this season as well if Nadeau had taken the one-year deal Montreal offered him. Maine is probably nowhere near the NCAA bubble if that happens and all this hand-wringing about missed opportunities is completely moot.
Even factoring in a down...
It is funny how far we've come in regards to logos, compared to the days of Walsh demanding BC forfeit a game because the manufacturer's logos were too big on their pants (for anyone who remembers that incident in the 89/90 season)
