    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Also while watching WMU, I kept hearing the name Liam Valente. For those that don't remember Valente played his Freshman and Sophomore years at Providence and transferred to WMU for his Junior and Senior years. At Providence Valente played nearly every game and was getting some PP time his...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    To go along with NPI vs PWR and "facts". Watching regional games this afternoon I saw stats about the top offensive and defensive teams in the country and I started pondering UNH 98-99 with 171 goals and 467 points vs UNH 25-26 with 68 goals and 189 points. There have been comment about the...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    I am not sure you see the ECAC shrink unless it splits to a 6 team ivy league and a some other number of team new ECAC. One of the advantages the 12 team ECAC has is travel. Although they cover a large area for a "bus league" they have a good setup with "travel partners" making road weekends...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Well... crap... maybe... It appears that CHN's pairwise table is still updating with NCAA tournament results, I went back to check it just now and I have a different PWR view from when I pulled the numbers. Thankfully I tossed in a W-L record column because that has changed on the CHN...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    I think honestly the jury is still out. With the old PWR the tournament field would be exactly the same with some minor tweaks in seeding. 1 seeds - same teams, same order 2 seeds - same teams, flip Providence and Duluth (7 & 8), and yes Dartmouth would still be 6th 3 seeds - same teams, flip...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    From the stands didn't feel like 42-22 in shots. Both goalies made some outstanding saves, but this game was more even then comparing number of shots. Not sure how the MSU player scored that first goal, in tight on his forehand and looked like he went under the bar. Not much leverage to do...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Why not? In your world "investment" is everything and UNH is spending 15% more than Bentley. Now with UNH investing in building the long coveted hockey weight room and lounge. I mean do you know him personally, do you have some real insight or are you just being an @ss about everything...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    This started because you constantly say you need to give Souza the resources. Souza doesn't' have the resources. McMahon post that Souza doesn't have the investment. While a bunch of us say, Souza is the problem and history across multiple schools and multiple sports says you get the...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    I have never said UNH should only replace Mike Souza. NOT ONCE. I have repeatedly said: 1) UNH should be investing more in hockey 2) UNH should be better than they are with the current level of investment - see WMU from 2020-2025 (pre NIL) 3) you don't get the additional investment with a...

    I've known that person longer.... And it is good that it sounds like the Trustees are asking questions about the athletic department sliding in to the abyss. We should make sure there is awareness of WMU having less money, older arena, higher travel costs in NCHC and strength and...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    For those not aware UNH has done a fund as well the On To Victory Funds name from a line from the Universities fight song. "These funds are built through tax-deductible gifts to UNH Athletics, with contributions going directly to support student-athletes." Now I am sure having a coach out in...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Traditionally UNH uses state funds for education with things like housing & dining set-up a self sustaining break even entities. It is actually surprising that there is any funding reported as going to athletics from the state When the Whitt was built and Snively converted there was a big...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Per College Factual (reminder I am not a "fan", it is the only place I can find this data for any teams I have searched and at least it is consistent) Yale Men's Hockey Budget $2M... So $400k less than UNH. Those hot shot assistants are crazy, can't possibly win in that environment...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    My line of thinking is sure I think UNH should invest more in Hockey and I don't accept that as an excuse for poor performance. There are 18 teams that have made the NCAAs in the last decade with smaller budgets, 11 of them multiple times. That is not just AHA or WCHA teams there are a couple...
