Having to play Notre Dame every other year at South Bend demanded more money. Obviously not enough money for both.

Insert UMA, drop UML, and that was was fun: bragging-rights for all the flagship NE State schools were in the balance.
UML was the team along with the other 3/not UMass...the 1st year they played @ Maine...Maine beat Vermont 2-1 in Overtime/goal by Steve Karyia...Vermont had Tim Thomas and Martin St.Louis...they went on to play in Cincinnati in that's years then to be named Frozen 4...Maine could not go to the NCAA's because they were under NCAA Sactioned Suspension.

Eric Perrin played on that team also, and was second only to St. Louis in career points.

Yes indeed...Vermont had a very good team...and Maine did also...only they couldn't go to the NCAA's...that was back when they had only 12 Teams compared to the 16 now...another standout for Maine in that game & season was netminder Blair Allison.
 
Re: Maine Hockey 2013-2014 - Red Light District

Sure, if you want a second doormat to pair with Vermont.

So UML has become a perennial powerhouse, or something..? (Not so fast; Lowell is still working on that one.)

My point was that the old Governor's Cup included the main campuses of four State schools in NE, and that Mass-Amherst is still the putative representative of the entire system.

With UConn in the mix next year, they could revive it and include them too. The fourth place school in the tournament sits out a year maybe so the other State could rotate in.

Re: Maine Hockey 2013-2014 - Red Light District

One defenseman graduating, three coming in the fall. That makes ten on the roster. Will Red carry ten or will we see some shown the door? Williams/Norman.......Rutt?

And no "Shawn use to have 57 guys on the roster"

Conor Riley is listed as a F/D, so if you count him as an F, there are only 9 D on next year's roster. On the other hand, if Riley is an F, we'll have 14 returning fowards (only Anthoine and Swavely are seniors), and four coming in (Pecararo, Badger, Widmar, and the Englishman), for a total of 18. Plus four goalies, including Strickrott. Current roster = 28 players (7 D, 15 F, 1 F/D, 5 G). Next year's roster = 31 (9 D, 17 F, 1 F/D, 4 G). We may have to get more lockers.

Pretty sure Riley is staying on D. He's been pretty solid all year. So the returning D include Rutt, Hutton, Riley, Norman, Williams, Renouf, Schurhamer. We have 2 incoming D-men in Hayes and Hamilton. Not sure where you are getting the third? Maybe Spicer? He is slotted for fall of '15 or '16 per Larry's article and Spicer himself. So that makes for 9 d-men for next year.

As for forwards...returning are Higgins, Cerretani, Leen, Shore, S. Swavely, Lomberg, Merchant, Tegeler, Brown, Morgan, Byron, Henke, and Campbell. That is a total of 13. Incoming are Pecararo, Badger, Widmar, and now Musil for sure. Vesey is listed as '14 or '15, but I think it would be madness to not bring him in after the year he has had for the South Shore Kings.

For Goalies...Returning is Morris, Strickrott, and Nugnes. Incoming is Romeo (tbd possibly, seems to be having a poor season in the USHL). That makes for 18 Forwards, 9 D, and 4 Goalies.

Heisenberg has Spicer coming this fall.

It seems you like the thought of players getting kicked to the curb, who do you think will not be asked back?
 
Re: Maine Hockey 2013-2014 - Red Light District

Could Red be thinking about contingency plans in case one or more Black Bears decide to try their luck with pro contracts?
 
Re: Maine Hockey 2013-2014 - Red Light District

Maine's current roster is 28 players. Two other Hockey East teams have 28 players on their rosters, two have only 26 and one (Boston University) has only 24. The other five teams have 27 players each. I don't think Maine will have 31 players on the roster next fall, but I have no idea how we'll get from here to there.

I understand that UML is the best of the UMass hockey schools of late, but it's not the flagship program in the system.

Don't feed the trolls on this one; if the Governers' Cup is to be revived, it needs to be predictably composed of the four main-campus teams, not picked and chosen on the basis of which one is hot right now.

Well if Fishman'81 says that's how it has to be, who are we to argue facts?
