    The real question is can the staff put in place a winning system to take advantage of the talent. I hope I am wrong and at the same time there is nothing in the MS7 era that indicates that is probable. If what's past is prologue, the most likely is a fairly good first half. Potentially even a...

    Does seem weird to have done this much roster work and have ZERO goalies. "Sometimes they should call this game goalie, not hockey." Jack Parker But not alone as MSU and QU (maybe more) also cleaned out there goalies.

    This is a problem. Souza has proven he only seems to dance when his head is going into the guillotine. It even felt a little that way last off season with CHL players and all the roster turnover. It was the same last time his contract was up, better product on the ice and better coach...

    So UNH is now going to have some big bodies upfront. What is the offensive strategy going to be to take advantage of them. This year with MacDonald and Newcombe the plan seemed to be let them fight for position and then... not shoot, pass them out of position then shoot and shoot it into the...

    OK - good to hear how you think about it. I liked MacPherson's game the longer the season went on, so it is unfortunate he is transferring, he had started to win battles and create. He could have been a higher line guy getting the puck and making a play from the wall. I haven't spent much...

    I would hope Oliver finds his game and slides up to a 2nd or 3rd line role. Serious question, are you placing based on stats/history and Oliver looks like the 4th best left wing?

    All you need to do is look at Bruce Cassidy, Vegas 22-26, won the cup in 23, made the playoffs all of his years, 178-99-0-43. Fired mid season to "change the voice in the room".

    Note from the NCAA title game broadcast. There is Mike Hastings before going to the locker room meeting with undressed players from the stands, getting a download on what they saw during the period. A scouting report. They presented it like this is uncommon, I really don't know, I had...

    I do think there is going to be an unfortunate juggling of talent do to the availability of money at Big 10 schools in particular. It has the potential to make college sports the MLB which if we look at successful sports models is the one you probably don't want to follow. However, I think it...

    The house settlement roster size limit along with the CHL change is still rippling through College Hockey. Limited number of spots, 65*26=1,690 which is down from around 2-3 players per team so ~162. While at the same time opening another giant pool of potential CHL talent. Depending on your...

    There might be something in common about the last 2 teams standing... The hint is it was also in the last Denver title game... Both teams right now are not ones you do not want to run into in the Tournament. If you are going to beat them they make you earn it, earn every inch of ice. They...

    There might have been other reasons for the tough last couple years. I don't have a personal relationship with Cy and I am not normally one for "whining about doing your best" and I give him a pass (from what little I know)

    Of the $20M renovation cost the State is putting up ~$6M. So lets take the $14M in donations and put it in some sort (I ain't reading the NCAA rules on NIL) of endowment for NIL funds. Lets go with 5% return - low but anything above that allows the principal to grow. That 5% is $700k in NIL...
