    Crazy, what is it one of those character building moments or some form of punishment. What a dope Red is.

        Hockey is only the 4th most important program on campus now.....sad but true. If we see no movement on Gendron or Alfond Arena after this season.......we will know that this program no longer matters to the UM Athletic Dept.

            Sadly, it actually was a league game.

              He stinks but its not like he’s aware that he stinks and is trying to bilk Maine out of the big bucks. He really thought he was going to win a national title.

              Whatever else I’ll say about his performance and qualifications, you’ll never hear me say he didn’t give an honest effort.
              How do you know what effort he's given? Still can't get them to quit taking penalties, still can't get a 60 minute effort out of them, just what the hell does he do?

              Talks a good game. But the last couple seasons, its just all excuses and blaming. Never about him not getting the job done
              What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

                Well, back to watching football.

                UNB 4-0 with 8 to go in 2nd period... game over already probably.

                    This start isn't shocking, we all knew their was no Defense coming back, we all knew the Offense was going to be sparse and it appears a decent goalie is going to be wasted by lack of recruiting help for him. Red is lost and can't find his way out of it. Too bad for the program and too bad for the fans. Another wasted year

                      I don't think the team struggling out of the gate was necessarily unexpected, but the magnitude of it and how bad they've looked doing it has been kind of shocking to me.

                        Bright spot for me was Greenway. Effort for the team today was streaky, maybe good 50% of the time, hopefully that's the freshman coming up to speed..

                          Seven yesterday.
                          Only five today.
                          The defense is getting better!

                            This is true. Expected a 3-1 loss to PC and a 3-1 win over UNB. I am not sure there was anything that was good. Every aspect of Maine’s play looked lousy to me. And looked like the coach couldn’t care less. No timeouts, no emotion, no motivation, etc... just trust the process... you know take a steady stream of unnecessary penalties, play soft in front of your own goalie, pass up and out of your zone when ever you accidentally win a battle to a loose puck in the offensive zone, pass as much as possible and hesitate to shoot whenever there is a power play, etc...

                              The worst part for me is that next year looks significantly worse. Maybe a new coach can help, but Maine loses most of their best players after this season.

                              It’s hard to understand how we got here. I honestly felt Maine was headed in the right direction after the 16, 17, and 18 seasons. It was a little concerning last year Maine didn’t bring in some better forwards, but they didn’t lose much so they might not have had a lot of money.

                              With that being said, this year’s freshmen class just makes no sense. They’ve gotten so many good kids to commit too. Maybe someone knows the full story because it is completely baffling to me why they let the good kids decommit or defer them and bring in the not so talented ones. Maine is a good three or four years away from respectability.

                                It's closing in on a wasted decade.
