        God I hope not.

              They are over achieving according to that. At least Maine won't lose tonight

                I wouldn't say that. They are around #35 as far as this recruiting metric goes, and that's about where they have ended-up in the PW, for years now.

                What stands out is how badly certain teams have fared, despite on-paper great recruiting classes.

                  That is quite a body of work actually.
                  Like you say confirms reds results.

                    Recruiting trumps coaching, usually....

                      Yup, but it takes coaching to recruit. Hmmm.

                        Exactly. Recruiting is part of coaching.

                          Maine is at 8-8-3 in the 1st half before the Holidays, after the break they play 15 more games, not counting the US Nat. Del. Team game...how do you think they fare in the rest of the regular season...I am going with a 8-7-0 finish....thoughts and predictions....got to keep Maine thread relevant.

                              They are 1-5-1 in their last six games. Their only win came against 3-12-2 team St. Lawrence. The next loss avoidance was the tie against 3-12-2 St. Lawrence.

                              I think at best this team goes 7-8 with a trip on the road and eliminated in hockey east quarterfinals.

                              Sad really, because the team is capable of more. Insufficient development of players is a problem. Not many of the upperclassmen are any better then when they were freshmen. Can we look at that? How many are better as upperclassmen than they were as freshmen?

                                They have been much better at home this year, and the majority of the remaining schedule is at home. I expect them to appear much better record-wise the rest of the way, even though many of the teams they will play at home are not very good.
