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.
Well stated. FWIW the discussion with McMahon - where I point out the parts he is unwilling to admit to - is up on Twitter/X as of a few moments ago, we'll see what he has to say there. But as you point out, there is no shortage of capable and ambitious assistants looking for the very...
In fairness, I may have crossed my wires between McMahon and Jim Connolly on the "own podcast" issue. Awaiting MM's response on Twitter/X or elsewhere.
MS7 has been virtually absent from huge chunks of his job's responsibilities. That's inexcusable, and suggests he was never ready for the demands of the job.
Bingo.
Fantastic take on all three paragraphs, teez. For what it's worth, I've since ventured onto his page and asked him to account...
I'm not here to devalue what it is that you enjoy, so knock yourself out, and by all means, continue to subscribe. But ultimately, it is only his opinion, and he's not any more qualified as an outside observer who trades on his media access with coaching staffs to run interference for his...
Souza would never allow Tortorella to become his assistant, and Jimmy T. probably wouldn't want to be more closely associated with the train wreck that is happening under MS7. It rarely works when one of the assistants is smarter, more capable and more experienced than an insecure head coach...
So now you are defending not only the least successful HC in recent HEA history, but now also the most lightweight of "media" personalities. Kudos lol 😂😂
Last time I checked, both of these men are grown adults, and should be able to fend for themselves in public. You truly are a megalomaniac...
That's an incredibly weak deflection, even by your weak "standards". If you're lucky, maybe 0.01% of the posters on here will fall for it. Keep digging, chumley.
I mean, I'm happy to keep gradually rolling out more details of who you are, if you want to foolishly challenge me??
You shouldn't take this stuff personally, FDNY99. My point is that a 3rd paid assistant is the least of MS7's worries, and whether a 3rd assistant is paid or is a volunteer is 99% of the time not likely to move the needle, especially if the guy running the ship isn't qualified. UConn did pick...
What is truly laughable is you equate the funding of a 3rd assistant and a few updated exercise machines to being difference-makers for a program that has known nothing but losing for over a decade. Millions have been spent on addressing previous MS7 excuses. Pardon us for not calling this out...
cpo pottymole's "sources" are the folks in T-Hall who got us into this mess in the first place, and aren't about to fall on their collective swords admitting it lol.
Oh, that and the guy who got smoked on his own podcast by his own kid this past Fall, and pretends to be an "insider" when all...
This is a "yes and no" answer in all fairness, as cpo pottymole's position is generally a volunteer position, much like that of the much-ballyhooed 3rd assistant coach's position for UNH Men's Hockey at present. Maybe our hero's logic is if UNH can fund a 3rd assistant coach salary, maybe they...
Apologies, cpo pottymole. When I learned you resided in the "Washington DC area" (which is, for the record, 70% surrounded by safer Maryland suburbs) ...
&*%!$ &$@##, a University of New Hampshire (UNH) alumnus from the Class of ****, currently resides in the Washington DC area.
... I gave...
I would love to see the MS7 apologists provide a list of the paid 3rd assistants for the other 10 programs in HEA.
Because apparently, this is the new reason latest excuse why MS7 can't coach/recruit his way out of a wet paper bag lol 🤮 😂

I believe Bruce Hardenbrook (sp?) used to run the show, and IIRC he is a local. e.cat might have more info too? Good luck!!
Welcome back, 'Watcher ... and thank you for cogently asking the questions that the backers of the current coaching staff studiously continue to avoid. I'll point out as a reminder to the group, you were early (earliest?) on the boat that Souza was not sufficiently experienced or qualified, and...
By all accounts, UMaine was in the bottom (3rd) tier of HEA resources-wise until they hired Ben Barr. Barr didn't pull off a miracle, he applied all of his plentiful coaching skills and recruiting abilities to slowly but surely drag UMaine out of its end stage Gendron-era dry rot into a program...
Spot on. And yes, I'm one on here who remembers UNH Hoops' brief flirtation with regular tenancy at The Whitt. They inherited the hoops stanchions (sp?) from the recently deserted/demolished original Boston Gardens, and they also inherited a rarely competitive team from the Gib Chapman era...
Nothing would make me happier than cpo pottymole holding to his original promise to leave. Otherwise, see my last response.
potty's position has been, he will leave when I leave. Such a deal, right? Especially with a poster who's already broken a promise to leave forever once before.
Not...
potty would rather saw his leg(s) off without anesthesia than deprive himself of the ability to gin up his latest unhinged rant in defense of his hero(es) by invoking my critical posts of the folks in charge of UNH Athletics, and especially UNH Hockey, as his fuel. Other than that, he's got...
