Does Roque's contract expire at the end of this year? That is the only way that there will be a coaching change.
I have heard it does and i agree with you 100 percent. They would not make a change if he had years left on his contract.
Anyone know why Friday's game is at 7:35 instead of 7:05?
Any body else having trouble getting the internet feed to work for the coaches show?
Much like tonight, where listeners out of town were not able to hear the Jim Roque Show, the same thing happened the week after the CCHA reprimanded Roque and he alleged in the Soo Evening News that he filed a police report against the linesman, who also happened to be a police officer himself.

If it was addressed by the head cheerleader I would be very surprised.
The Truth Is Out There....
Are you guys ready to DANCE at this weekends playoff series!!!! It should be a great match-up. Two very even teams that know if they don't bring there A+ game this weekend it will be time to dig out the golf clubs and dust them off. LOL.
THANKS for the TV info. Do you know if Saturdays game and Sundays game if needed will be on TV also?
I doubt it. If CBS Sports does carry another game this weekend, it will probably be from a different series. We can always hope though. I haven't heard yet if Fox Sports is planning to broadcast any games this weekend. That's another possibility.
It looks like fsd is going to show a game friday at 7:30. I checked on my interactive guide on charter.

And you keep ignoring the reality of the Laker hockey program and the conduct of your hero off the ice hey Bill?
If JR gets the boot I think a wide search should be done as well but unless LSSU can lure an unlikely "rabbit out of the hat" type of candidate, they are most likely going to be left with willing candidates that have resume's that resemble that of a Joe Shawhan.
If that is the case then obviously Shawhan should be our first candidate, being that he already has experience with the program and the city itself he would be able to get off the ground running faster than a coach who doesn't have much internal knowledge of the program or the town. Someone like that would have to take some initial time to familiarize himself with those type of things.
If Roque does end up getting fired after this season I plan on sending AD Kris Dunbar an email suggesting that the Lakers contact John Harrington, who was a member of the 1980 Miracle on Ice U.S. Olympic team. Harrington worked in the 80s and early 90s as an assitant at Denver and St. Cloud State before becoming the head coach at St. Johns University, a D3 school in Minnesota. SJU was a god awful program before he took the job and he turned them into a contender nearly overnight, they went on to win numerous conference titles and make a handful of NCAA appearances during his tenure there, and he sported a .620 winning percentage during his 15 year career at SJU. He left there to coach overseas including a short stint as the head coach of Slovenia's national team, he currently coaches a men's pro team in Italy.
I read a book on the 1980 team and I remembered that it mentioned that Harrington always had the dream of coaching big time college hockey if that opportunity ever came along. It's certainly a longshot, but the guy has the appeal of being on the most famous hockey team in the history of the United States, has experience at big time WCHA programs and has a track record of turning around a downtrodden program , albeit at the D3 level. He is the head coach of an overseas team but the Italian league isn't exactly a fast track to an NCAA job the last time i checked, so I think it it most certainly at least worth a phone call to the man to gauge his interest.
On the fox sports schedule it has CCHA hockey sceduled at 7:30 with the teams TBD.
On the CCHA composite tv schedule it said that CBS would be carrying a first round playoff game on 3/4 or 3/5. Because of this, I do not think that they will broadcast a game from a different series.
OK, very sorry about that. We don't forget, it was great times, we all give FA credit for that, and nobody is saying the team is in a better position now.You can't forget totally about the past and the man that won your little school's first National Championship and built the program into a national powerhouse and two more titles. Frank Anzalone ... Anzalone's out of town.
