Re: Maine Offseason 2020: We Stay Home But Swayman Leaves
Gendron changing his mind on OT. He has always favored 5X5 in OT for 5 minutes. If it's still tied after the 5 minutes it goes as a tie and each team gets a point.
Now he favors going 3X3 for 5 minutes. “Personally, I think the 3-on-3 would be more entertaining for the fans and it would also enhance the student-athlete experience.”
Gendron, UM Hockey Coach.
This has been my opinion for years. The players would love it! It gives them more open ice and a chance to show their skill with the puck. More discussion slated for June meeting by leagues and coaches.

As for Fossier, I’ve found it interesting as well, such a creative and fun player to watch. I don’t see him ever making the league although I really hope he does. I think he’ll be a really good AHL player. His music career also sounds promising so he might be trying that as well.

I don’t know why people are so adverse to ties. I’d rather take the result and the point then subject my team to a gimmick and come out empty handed.
The more concerning thing that Red said was his support for the 11 team HE playoff.

Does the season happen if BU, BC, and Northeastern don't have classes on campus in the fall? Harvard released something today that makes it sound like on campus classes are pretty unlikely for the fall and they are making plans for having classes online. Would schools let athletes be on campus if regular students can't be?Originally posted by BobbyBrady
Crosby probably wouldn't even be on BC's top two lines next year

Many universities need to be back on campus to survive. No one is going to pay $40K a year for online classes they can get at their nearby community college. This has and is going to kill numerous institutions permanently.

Disagree with the second. If people wouldn't pay for "online classes they can get at their nearby community college", why do they routinely pay that for in-person classes? The truth is that the courses are not the same. The professors are not the same.bigmrg74: "You can't drink the day away if you don't start early!"
