UMaine '18-'19: Back to the Nationals!

Who did the undertaker bring in from the USNDTeam? The most recent look to be Ryan Hegarty, Nick Pryor and of course Kelen Corkum. They were all circa 10 years ago.

And with that most of these players are looking to further there careers and the Program @ Maine is not going to do that...pretty simply...you need to win games/play for something and then and only then will recruits notice Maine on the College Hockey map.
Seeing as paul bearers been the coach for 5 years now 10 doesnt seem outlandish for timmy recruits

They are demanding a home and home to come to Orono?

Re: UMaine '18-'19: Back to the Nationals!
Just saying, but I've seen a couple of iterations of the U-18 team over the years, and they are indeed (usually) the cream of the crop for their age.
Still, it's a bit embarrassing for a D-1 team to surrender 6 goals to HS-age kids. But that's what we have now. I think that we all realize it these days.
Back to football: Maine can beat EWU. In fact, I expect it, despite the travel. I haven't seen a D like Maine's in FCS all year long.

You kinda said it already, but neither guy has brought it.
However, in retrospect, Tim was far far better both in terms of recruiting and coaching. Red has been an ongoing disaster, and I don't see that old dog learning any new tricks. His extension was a moronic decision.

Fish- respectfully disagree that Whitehead was far better at recruiting and coaching. Recruiting- you’re talking apples and dump trucks in comparing the two. I’ve already posted clearly the difference between the two situations. Coaching- neither win any medals. But worst of all, and most don’t realize this, the undertaker was totally incompetent at maintaining or securing the financial long term viability of the Maine Hockey Program. It was in serious disrepair when RG inherited the program, and that’s being kind. That very serious issue was addressed head on in 2013-14-15 and right up until today.

Right, but if they don't want to come why go there to play? What is the point? It's an exhibition. Schedule another Canadian team. Or only play one this year. What kind of recruiting tool is flying all the way to Michigan to lose to those kids?

Minnesota, Maine, Bowling Green, Lake State, Holy Cross, and Adrian College will play on their ice this year.

College teams play out at Plymouth frequently. The NTDP team has 5 home games vs D1 schools this season. Minnesota, Bowling Green, Maine, LSSU and Holy Cross. They play 9 D1 schools away. Their New England swing was mid-October. Lost to BU in O/T. Beat Harvard. Beat Dartmouth. This is a solid team. NTDP played at Alfond in Jan 2017. They did not play each other last season. They apparently play at Maine again next season so it’s not like Maine grovels for a game out there. Money is tight but odds are this trip comes out of the Stanbrook fund or the Alfond fund. Not the regular UMaine hockey budget. Same for the Friendship Four tournament in Belfast last season. It’s a great opportunity for the players.
Not for nothin’ but NTDP won 6-4 with Bubba and Mundinger each playing about half the game. That was the right thing to do in an exhibition IMHO. Swayman plays, it’s a different game me thinks. Let’s all pray for a good second half of the season and some tournament success.

Mundinger had a rough night. A couple soft ones he let in. But what was most concerning was our d standing around watching them go to the net. Michel and Keeper got caught watching a lot.

Lindelow, Spicer, and Holesinsky also got playing time.
This u18 squad beat Michigan, Notre Dame, Harvard, and Dartmouth. Though it could be they played their third goalie and back up skaters.

I mean, Jack Hughes was in the game and I believe he scored a goal. So I doubt it was the bottom of the roster playing, although I suppose still possible.
