Won't make it to the exhibition game. Heading to Maine for the long weekend but I'll tune in via WUML though!

BTW, with all the blogs out there, I'm planning on shutting down the umlhockey.com website by the end of this month. Just an FYI.

Is that an invitation to take over the URL? I'm not asking for myself or anybody else.

Anybody see USCHO's article on 2nd year coaches, I'm not going to suggest that we were "snubbed" but rather I'd like to note that Norm already took care of business :cool:

Don't shut it down! :) The more spreading word about the River Hawks the merrier! But I can understand.

He wasn't snubbed because he isn't a 2nd year head coach. He is a 2nd year head coach with Lowell, but was the head coach in Hamilton prior. All the coaches listed in that article were first year head coaches in 2011-12, that I researched.

It's a very old-fashioned website, put together way back just to help pass out info because the school's site was terrible. When the school picked up their work, then the biggest plus about the site was the recruiting stuff. Now, with the work you guys are doing, there's really no need. I'll keep passing along info about recruiting as I see it (like I tweeted to you about Campbell last night), but figure it's not worth the $150 a year I've been paying for the site.

IMO, if you wanted to go forward with it, I'd just suggest moving to a current blog format, post sporadically, and include your twitter feed.

However, I don't think that's your best option. You provide valuable insight... I don't know if you want to write more long form but I'd suggest, at your comfort, pairing up with one of the blogs to provide recruit info... and a coach interview if you can ever snare one... so basically guest-blogging.

I always wondered about a creative resource website for fans... but meh, I have no time nor interest to thread something like that together. Beer to drink, women to chase, computers to program, journal articles to be written... *sigh*.

Monty, the past year or two, were you still doing the fan award at the banquet, or was that a one and done type thing? With the growing blogs and such, if you were getting votes, that might be something that should be discussed to keep it going.

The hockey department was informed as to the winner two years ago, but didn't include it. And I didn't do it last year because I never got the chance to get Coach Bazin's OK.
