So, are they going to announce Jack Capuano the head coach tomorrow or wait until Tuesday?

I have heard the announcement is going to be Monday, but that is a holiday so who knows. The team is supposedly going to be told before it is made public. They have not been told anything yet.

I've also heard that it isn't Cap.

Of course this info plus $5 will get you a small coffee at Starbuck's. No one knows anything for sure at this point.

Amen! Loved Montgomery as a player and wish him the best. But I could care less about Denver!

One postive about Montgomery going to Denver is that the Pioneers will most likely be on the schedule in the near future.

"Did Maine contact you about their head coaching position?"

"The Denver job came up and I couldn't pass it by even though I was interested in the Maine job."

Comes off as pretty evasive. Personally I want to be able to read the truth in an article regardless of what it is. If you are tired of reading his reality of what happened in this situation, then don't be mad at him...be mad at the people that insist on writing the same articles over and over and asking himt he same recycled questions time and again.

Again, he's not the one asking for these stories to be written or calling up the reporters to air some agenda he has with Maine.

After the fact, I'm OK with Monty going elsewhere. When I think back, he smells like a mealy-mouthed front-runner to me, especially in light of recent events... Not sure at all that his success in Dubuque translates to anything on the next level.

Maine doesn't need another used-car salesman; Maine needs a guy who will install a do-or-die attitude.

If it's Corkum, that's fine, but what's the delay in getting the new regime installed, FCS?

This verifies the game at Fenway will take the place of the league game at BU in November.

It was posted on the Facebook page that his wife met with a realtor yesterday to put the house on the market. I had a reporter looking for a second source on the announcement of Corkum being Monday, another reporter is looking for a second source that the new coach is someone else (neither Corkum nor Capuano) and the announcement will be Tuesday. This promises to be an eventful weekend.

Do you think fans are going to be happy with this? I just can't see him bringing much excitement back to the program. I hope I am wrong.

Is there anyone remaining that would make the fans happy?

torts wasn't even the best DIII coach in maine during his time at Colby (Meagher/Bowdoin)
Click to expand...

certainly not the splash i was/am hoping to see them make... nice coach, but it's not like colby was a d3 power when he was there (in 16 seasons, 1 Regular Season Title, 1 Conference Tourney Title, 1 D3 FF)... i was/am looking for them to go another route

Gwoz.

In order, power ranking list of what would make me personally happy as a fan:
1. Gwoz
2. Cap
3. Corkum
4. Oz
5. Red
6. Torts

Honestly, if its not one of the first three or a major darkhorse no one's talking about, I'd have rather kept Whitehead for one more year.

If we support whoever gets the job they have a lot better chance of being successful than if we don't support them. I'm just happy to draw a line under the last six or seven years. The team next year is going to have some talent and hopefully whoever is coach can get the most out of them.
 
Re: Maine Hockey Thread II: The Search for Spock

If its Tortorella count me as unimpressed. Dont tell me this 'committee' could have spent all this time and this is the best they can do.:rolleyes:
