Maine just got a commitment from Josh Henke of the New Jersey Hitmen according to Judd Brackett, a Vancouver Canucks/Indiana Ice scout. 15 goals and 18 assists in 23 games a forward
Sam Wolfe has reported to Bismarck yesterday also
A new, high-level junior hockey league appears likely to be to be the next full-time tenant of the Androscoggin Bank Colisee in Lewiston, and an announcement might come as soon as Monday.
A group of four Eastern Junior Hockey League teams recently announced the formation of a new league, the U.S. Premier Hockey League, to begin play in 2013, with a vision of operating in its first year as an eight-team league. The Portland Junior Pirates are in the mix to be one of the four teams in the second announced group, and would use the Lewiston facility as the team's home rink.
Josh Henke needed a change of scenery.
The Trenton, Mich., native moved to the New Jersey Hitmen of the EJHL after spending last season with the Tri-City Storm and the Muskegon Lumberjacks of the USHL in hopes of landing a Division I scholarship.
The move paid off as the 18-year-old committed to the University of Maine.
If he does not land in Maine he'll be somewhere's in D1 Hockey...if he can play,there's a place that will forgive and forget.I hope Maine cuts ties with Wolfe. People who want something for nothing aren't going to find much joy in college athletics.

So you never did any dumb things as a kid?

Everyone has, that's wasn't the point. There is a difference between doing something stupid and not being willing to work for something/feeling entitled. At 19 I would expect he would know the difference between right and wrong.
Yeah in my mind taking $70 bucks work of clothes from some place named Schells isn't much more than fodder for some signs and message board taunting from rivals if this kid can play. Its not like he was armed or it was a full out heist. Dumb kid mistake, he'll pay the piper do some community service etc.
Hopefully after the season,but will they..? That is: Maine cutting there ties to TW and go in another direction: Rebuilding/Recruiting/changing the mindset @ UM towards a more positive outlook...not a good horizon for Maine...sadly the talk is of recruits off ice activities and the ever growing distain towards TW.When is Tim Whitehead gonna do some community service? Certainly, he has been "stealing" from Maine taxpayers, students, fans and/or donors for quite some time...........

Question is will Abbott be around when his Contract ends this coming summer..? Will he leave and let the NEW AD address all that is happening at the U..? For Abbott to do anything in the TW Coaching Change if one was to happen,he would most likely be on board longer then his deal that expires in the summer...so if he gets a extension(Abbott)...does he exit TW..?Steve Abbott preaches "character".......that's why he demanded that Cindy Blodgett cut loose a women's hoop player 2 years ago when she stole an ATM card and used it. What will Abbott do here? Will he be a hypocrite and allow Mr. Wolfe to keep his scholarship? When will ANYONE (media, administrators, large donors) face the music.........winter sports are 7-39-3 right now. Is this REALLY acceptable????
