Just saw on goblackbears.com, Cornell, Diamond and Nemec are Tri-captains for 2012-2013 season. Guess Joey is staying...Tim Ghandi must be taking his leadership style from the Football team....never have seen tri captains at this level, typical lack of definte action....... in any event, good kids and should help set tone..Nemec will be a 5th year sr, so hopefully brings maturity, Joey , if controlled , could bring a fire, Cornell has been a Captain before...should provide leadership on and off ice. Big question will be if Joe will commit to being the best he can be.....
Honestly, I don't think it will be that long. As long as they keep going strictly by math as best as possible to match up teams in the field, you're going to see some horrendously imbalanced brackets. Obviously we've seen decent Maine teams get through in 06 and 07 with horrendous brackets. This year had serious imbalance as well that Maine could have easily gone to the title game from had they been in the right spot.
So... all you gotta do is get in a few times and you'll probably see Maine get through at least once if not more out of a handfull of NCAA berths.
Solid Goaltending and Solid Defense is the the only way this Team wins games next season...blue collar lunch pail style hockey...grind and check...and total team D will be needed. No room for error in there own end,if so...long nights.That's possible, but I didn't see any bracket weak enough this year for that to have happened. (I'm betting on the Sox, BTW.)
Nice to see Joey back. I thought he made great strides with his discipline this past season. I expect his numbers to be down next year, but ya never know... If the Freshman class is as good as many seem to think it is, the points *might* be there.
All I really want to see in Orono is a decent D-corps coupled with an above-average 'tender. It's been a while.

What a dope Necessity is!
Congrats to Joey, Mark and Mike!

Like playing Alaska and Yale to get to the Frozen Four...
When I drove a company car with a phone number on the door it changed my driving habits. Maybe the C will similarly help Joey - keep the ferocity, lose the stupidity, be an example.

Bears absolutely right, having 3 C's is unheard of. Its a high school move. Pick one (Cornell??) and give the other 2 A's.
That's certainly what it was in '07. Michel Leveille was the captain, period. Soares and Lundin wore A's.
I stand , humbled by the scathing rebuke at the hands of the immortal BobF![]()
I didn't have the background on this being a mini tradition at Maine....still don't like the approach, but I have faith in the players to be leaders.....all bring different things a, experiences etc...my comments are not about their selection to formal leadership, but rather what I feel is a misguided approach, the "tradition" not withstanding...as to my question of joey's commitment...I felt he looked tired and had little stamina...I know he takes a pounding, but still, seemed like his off ice commitment didn't match his on ice.....IMHO, i could be wrong.
