Don't think they are televised, but the audio stream(s) is free.

Good chance at that as you say,one and done at Maine for Shore...depends what Dallas thinks of the situation at Maine and what would be in the best interest of a 2nd round pick...NHL Teams don't tend to like to waste picks or even have them hampered in their development stages...the only way I see him staying is if there would be a change in the Head Coaching staff after the season ends,but that is also a longshot...it will all depend on the A.D. at present(Abbott). Times have hit rock bottom/track wreck style for Maine Hockey.

Dollars to donuts Whitehead is gone after this miserable season. He has 2 years left on his contract, this and next. There is most likely a buyout clause. The A.D. would be totally negligent to allow this situation to continue and he knows it. The program has been a revenue generator for the school for two decades. It is break even now at best. That dog don't hunt. Many believe Abbott has the stones to pull the trigger. Many don't. We shall see. Timmay Time is up!!

It actually still turns a nifty profit: $700,000 in 2010. Abbott is nearing the end of his term as AD and a new one will be in place this summer. Will Abbott buy out Whitehead's contract and hire a new coach before he leaves, sticking the new AD with a new coach s/he didn't hire? Or will he buy out TW and leave the hiring for the next guy? We saw how well a July coaching search goes last year. Or will he do nothing and leave it for the next AD to handle?

Pardon my lack of cable smarts . . . do ESPN5 or ESPN8 exist, or was that a joke?
Anyone know which channel the Maine/UMD will be shown to the Bangor audience?

Thanks.

Maine leaves for Florida Wednesday morning and will practice Wednesday and Thursday. The team is in better health right now with the exception of Nick Pryor and Adam Shemansky who are not making the trip. Nice to have Jon Swavely back.
