    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    Maine playing great. The 5 minute major was a momentum killer. Let’s hope it gives them a boost in confidence heading into the 3rd. I think Boija’s looks solid positionally. Fundamentally sound tonight. Great to see. Maine had several grade A chances. Their goalie keeping this from being a...

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    I did the team pass for a month at 29 dollars. Saved 3 dollars. Time to cash it in at the dollar store. Probably can’t find anything there for $1 anymore. So I will get 1 item. They should start calling it “$3 store” to keep up with inflation.

    Oh my. I’m over 50 and can figure all this tech crap out easy enough. Don’t put Gen-X out to pasture yet. 🤪

    He will have a fellow future Blackbear, Nate Yellowaga, there in Red Deer to bond with.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Ok, fair enough. But now we have a different problem. We won’t have a carcass to pick at during the winter break. PS. Cinnamaroll is female, she is excellent on recruiting info specifically from CHL leagues. Seems to be more of a fan of any program with San Jose Sharks draft picks. Despite...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    “Probably wrong” ??? It is abundantly clear to everyone(including you) that you are 100% wrong. The guy had way more credentials than needed for acceptance, inclusion, equality without any DEI mantra. You manufactured and labeled him as a token DEI hire and it blew up in your face. I don’t...

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    He has been excellent on his face offs. He is very good all around. Not sure what he did to get into Barr’s doghouse for a couple games. Maybe he just has the flu or something. But he came back in not demoted and played on the top line. In fact, this was the first time Maine played 3 freshmen on...

    UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

    You could solve that problem the old fashioned way - bribe someone.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    What did you expect? You didn’t think Chuck would admit he was wrong and say my bad, did you? Chuck just did Chuck and doubled down on dumb. Digging a deeper hole like he always does. It is fun watching him labor away while wondering “when will he finally put down the shovel?”.

    UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

    If you were going through a coaching change I guess this is what it looks like. Is this the final year of Bazin’s contract? To have the level of de commits and no new ones seems strange, I agree.

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Since we have a break in UMaine hockey action I want to post highlights on recruits as I watch them play. Last night I was able to watch Charlottetown vs. Cape Breton of QMJHL and future Maine recruit Ross Campbell(#15 in tan jersey) had two primary assists that are worth checking out...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    We wanted him to come in during the fall of 2018, and that didn’t happen. He played throughout the winter and started heating up and in January(I think) he pulled his commitment with Maine and committed to Nebraska-Omaha. Then he really started heating up and closed out the season on a tear...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Amkirby10, go read what Jacob wrote. He said “reasonably touted”. As such I offered up a 3.75 NZ from USHL as “reasonably touted” category. You have introduced “highly touted”. And you introduced it using quotes which isn’t what Jacob even said.

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    One of them was supposedly Sydney Crosby. But that doesn’t seem to really count because that was back in the day when Canadian kids had to choose between major junior vs. NCAA. Crosby had 0.0001% chance of playing college hockey probably. I’m talking about kids that are after 16 and were...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    To commit at 15 you have to commit without the coach being able to contact you. I can only think of 1 that even did that, which was Oliver Wahlstrom, and he pulled his commitment and went to BC instead. How many have there ever been at all? I can only recall Wahlstrom. I mean, if there has...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    Reasonably touted would be Killian Kiecker-Olson, he was a NZ 3.75. He lasted 1 season and then transferred to Canisius. In general not many from Minnesota in last 10 to 15 years. Was hoping this could change with Coach Barr because he is from Minnesota and played for Shattuck. But doesn’t seem...

    Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

    One thing we need to brace ourselves for is that kids that are from Minnesota that have verbal committed to Maine have flipped when other big hockey schools in Minnesota/Wisconsin have come calling. The Meyer kid comes to mind. Recently Wooten and Montgomery have done this. I really hope the...
