Seems to be more quiet than I would have expected, but perhaps this is about the time that the news begins to pick up.

I would think in the next few weeks we should start hearing about coaching changes. My guess would be St Lawrence, UNH, UMass Lowell with Norm bazin retiring, and possibly Harvard.

You would know. You should be a Coach's agent! (LOL)

UNH can't change coaches quickly enough

Motzko out per Bucci and CHN. Color me shocked.

I think it is worth mentioning the coaching changes we already knew about-

Congrats to Rick Gotkin on his retirement after 38 seasons, Mercyhurst had a miserable season including injuries from hell with some bright spots at the end thanks to some brilliant efforts by the defense and Charles-Edward Gravel. It was announced along with the fact that this would be his last season last March that his replacement is assistant coach Tom Peffall. Gotkin ends his career with a record of 617-579-114, 16th in wins all-time and 6th in games coached.

Brown coach Brendan Whittet stepped down Feb 20th for family medical leave but will return in admin role, assistant coach Jason Smith took over as interim. UMass assistant coach Tom Upton will take the head coaching role going forward after UMass' season ends

Anyone I forgot?

UMass Lowell with Norm bazin.

Norm is not retiring. In fact, he will likely be signing an extension.

I came here to catch up and 4+ hours later there is a single comment! That shocks me more than the actual news!!

BChockeyblogger says it's Raboin to Minnesota. He's very tied in with the BC program and has a lot of sources in the college hockey world. I'd be surprised if he would say this without it being true

Yale just published an advert for a head coach.

Howe was the interim guy at Yale, so not surprising. Maybe they’re making him actually have to apply for it just to cover themselves

late to update but Raboin is very publicly staying at Augustana, at least for now.

Bret Larson in at Minnesota, SCSU now searching for a new coach

This guy Scott loves living in the past norm's time has run its course. Did a great job.

Looks like Tom Peffall is back on the market unfortunately

Die klassischen Automaten werden mir auf Dauer oft etwas zu monoton, deshalb suche ich oft gezielt nach Plattformen, die eine gute und faire Auswahl an Mini-Games oder Crash-Games haben. Letzte Woche bin ich so auf https://spіnmama.de gestoßen und hab dort ausführlich Plinko und Mines ausprobiert. Das macht erstaunlich viel Spaß, weil man den Risikofaktor und die Volatilität komplett selbst in der Hand hat. Die Animationen laufen butterweich und man hat keine nervigen Ladeverzögerungen. Für zwischendurch, um ein bisschen Nervenkitzel zu haben, momentan mein absoluter Favorit.

Yeah madness

UNH always has renewed their men’s hockey head coach’s contracts, so a non-renewal of Souza’s contract in spring 2027 would be unprecedented.
