    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Yeah, I mostly retracted my second sentence as they did a good job placing the #2 and #3 seeds to maximize attendance, although as someone else pointed out they only had to flip two of those schools from a pure NPI bracket standpoint.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Agreed. And on a closer look, there is not a big difference in records of the eight #2 and #3 seeds and it looks like the Committee made an effort to maximize attendance, which I think is import’ant for the regionals.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    No, da “Committee” played it straight up in protecting the #1 seeds in the first semifinal games. But I think that they made up for it by some ridiculous match ups in the second semifinal games in each regional.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I think that if the AD were not staying, there would have been an announcement and national search initiated for a new AD over a year ago. On paper, AD Rich is credited with tripling fundraising for the Athletic Dept during her first three years, most likely attributed to Anthony Lorenzo’s...

    Vermont Catamounts Season Thread 2025-2026: Go Cats Go or No Cats No?

    Wiedler has two more years on his contract. Do you think that UVM has the resources to buy out his contract?

    Why do you think that there is going to be a new AD come July/August?

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Agree with all except the last sentence as a buyout of MS7’s contract was never going to happen, no way, no how.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Yeah, who knew, right? I think that I misspelled his name, too, and I am not even going to bother to edit. 🙂 I think that this thread has gone completely off the rails and plummeted from a tall bridge into a deep canyon.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I agree, norbert. Most of the personnel change ideas floated over the last couple pages sound delusional to me and I can all but guarantee that not even one of them is going to happen. Ps, Jim Tortella’s Education Information Specialist I position pays him $63,240/yr as of 1 July 2025, info...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I found online that Steve Wiedler’s four-year UVM contract with a base salary of $250k/year begun in July 2024 includes an annual increase in line with other head coaches at UVM (whatever that amount might be), along with nine bonus incentives that add up to a potential but extremely unlikely...

    “……. might be able to get to the Garden once every blue moon.” Really? That would be once every 2.4 to 2.7 years. I think that at this point many of us would happy be getting to the Garden once every second or even every third blue moon. Otherwise, I completely agree with your post. There are...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Spot on, Jellsville. My other college hockey team for nearly the past 40 years has been Bentley. When the Falcons jumped from Div 3 to Div 1 in 2002/03 (MAAC that year, then Atlantic Hockey since), they hired their all-time leading scorer Ryan Soderquist (youngest Div 1 head coach at the time)...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Ok, so 3 bids is better than 1 or 2 in four of the last five years for ECAC.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    We will see if the Q does not win their next two games in the ECAC quarters and then the conference championship, which could limit the ECAC to two slots in the NCAAs.

    Too bad as I was hoping that BC would be eliminated so that Bruins could call up James Hagens for game today.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I have been in the President’s box with both of them at games and I can assure you that neither would admit in public that the men’s hockey team is in an untenable state akin to a dumpster fire. 🙂

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Not true. ECAC sent only two teams to the NCAAs in 2022, 2024, and 2025 and only one team in 2021. That said, I agree that UNH would be only a middle of the pack team in ECAC.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    More feathers in AD Rich’s nest as three UNH alpine ski team members won All American honors at the NCAA Ski Championships held at Utah Olympic Park at Park City this week. That should be good for a lucrative contract extension for the AD.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Ok, I will take the bait. Rube Bjorkman was UNH men’s hockey head coach 1964/65-1967/68. Most of his first season, he coached his team at a variety of off-campus rinks while Snively Arena was being built, opening on 23 February 1965. Over his four years as head coach at UNH, Rube recruited some...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Why do you and others think that the AD might be leaving? There have not been any compliance infractions, have there? Last year a skier on the UNH ski team won a national championship in giant slalom. So, no, I do not think that the AD is leaving UNH.
