Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

Stats are updated. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlPPTB_OrNptdGU1SDJyMVVpSTRrMVNCeXdfMENYenc#gid=0

Sean Romeo won goalie of the week once again the USHL.

With Nick Roberto's prep season over he will not be joining the Sioux City Muskateers of the USHL for the remainder the season. He's still deciding on the USHL or the EJHL for next season.

Brady Campbell's season is over as his team was bounced out of the playoffs.

Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

With 2 d-men coming in as recruits(Renouf-Schurhamer)...and the dropping of Sam Wolfe(shop-lifting a couple months ago)...could Maine be looking for one more d-man to go into next seasons mix...(current roster:O'Conner-Rutt-Hutton-Williams-Riley...they have Norman listed as a d-man,but wouldn't he be better off as a forward..?) Any thoughts..?
 
Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

Seems to me that 8 d-men with a couple that can also help out up front is plenty. Don't need a roster filler. but could always use another stud, however they're all taken this late in the game.

Could use a right handed d-man as they will have 7 lefties and one righty. Imagine it would be a recruited walk-on. How 'bout late blooming 20 year old who is 6'3"?

As long as he's also a puck-lugging d-man who can go from one end to another....!
 
Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

I'm sure that Maine is at the top of many lists right now with the cloud hanging over this program. Everyone must be lining up to sign with Maine considering that the current coach is only signed through next season. Come Abbott........man up and sign Coach Whitehead to a new 3 year extension!!!
 
Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

Will O'Neill didn't lug the puck? Dimmen? Those guys were pretty good in the offensive zone--certainly better than Prestin though he was far superior physically and defensively---I don't know if that qualifies as lugging.

My memory was that Prestin would carry the puck out, get it to someone over the red line and nobody in the arena was worried that there would be a turnover in the neutral zone. Not so with Dimmen and O'Neill. Maybe it was because of who Prestin had skating through the neutral zone ahead of him and that opponents could key more on Dimmen and O'Neill and the pressure on them made them look less talented than Prestin?

Prestin was a one man breakout. O'Neill got ruined by Timmay time
 
Re: Maine Recruit Updates: All Are Welcome.......

Defenseman/Goaltenders/and gritty players all go down after you see them for a few games/half the season or if lucky one full season,then its called Whitehead Hockey...you go from hopeful and should be a great addition to what ever happen come there Junior/Senior seasons....but then thats OLD NEW's.

Is that why Joey Diamond stopped being a gritty player in his junior and senior years?

This times 100.

I remember Prestin being a 1 man penalty kill and a 1 man intimidation machine. I don't remember him lugging the puck, but like KIA said, they were often getting rid of it more quickly not trying to go end to end. Don't remember much of Prestin on the PP like those other 2 guys, and Tyler.

I remember Prestin on ONE PP in particular, and if you don't it is because you blocked it out.

right after Matt Carle caught and threw a puck

No...but you have to say there are alot of players that came in and you really felt good about them...to progress from Yr.1 to their 3rd and 4th seasons,only to see them stiffled,stopped from playing their game or change postions or just wonder what their roles are on the team from game to game,some of them mind you...but overall you didn't see the best or how they improved under TW.(imo).
