UNH 2024/2025 Goldberg Edition

There's nothing great about Luce's tenure at UConn. No league titles (RS or tourney) in over a decade, and what - 2 or 3 winning seasons overall? Marginally better than MS7 at this time, probably comparable to the late (also not great) Coach Gendron. BTW, how is it that Coach Barr was overlooked for HEA COTY??

If I'm going to be "jealous" of someone, please let it be someone who's actually won or achieved something. That makes sense, right?!?

Maybe he wins the HEA title this weekend over you guys? I'm sure you'd love that. And they're virtually in the NCAA's, so no telling again, right?!?

If he wins anything, I'll congratulate him for that achievement(s). If/when he loses, I won't be surprised. How 'bout you??

I have no reason to "convince" anyone of Luce's character, everyone else can come to their own conclusions ... but when one has information by way of any confidentiality, those are obligations of trust that cannot be breached. And when that information comes from sources who have a demonstrable record of accuracy with other sourced info, that gives them credibility ... to me. These are principles, and none of your stupidity is going to change that. Sorry skippy!

The only one stupid looking is you. A stupid person would say something bad about someone and then not be prepared to answer the follow up question… why do you think that? You had no plan for an answer and was caught without one. You fell back on the highschool rumor mongering defense of “I have my reasons but I swore I wouldn’t say what it was or who told me. But trust me anyways.”. Sad Chuck. You need to stop stupidly putting yourself into defenseless positions. Nobody thinks your BS about Cavanaugh is true. Everyone thinks you are a douche for even saying anything about it.
 
Heading down to the HE semis tonight..any of you doing the same? I remember meeting Snively65 and a few others at the Providence game where my hero Kevin Goumas had 2 goals in that one (ah, sweet victory that was) in '14. Hard to believe (is it?) that UNH hasn't played there since 2015. TEN YEARS AGO :rolleyes:

Ha my only UNH 'claim to fame' is having 2 HE tournament victories over them...sad but, hey, you gotta start somewhere...Am sitting in Loge 18 Post here if you are going and I'll buy you a $40.00 Bud Light haha...

HR will be 'rooting for' Maine (egads) and UConn (sorry Chuck).

It is impressive to see you going despite UNH not making it. I met UNH fans last year in Springfield that were great. You are a true fan and it shows.

Souza is coaching at his alma mater where he would likely get more leeway. Why would he voluntarily go somewhere else? Where would he go for a better opportunity?

You are stuck with him until the AD decides to fire him and buy him out.

One can hope.

Please, please, please can it be Christmas morning and somebody, anybody make him and offer he can't refuse and UNH won't match.... PLEASE

Which is why the three year extension last year made absolutely no sense. Even if you were wowed by his 6th place Hockey East finish, there was no need to give him more than a single year extension.

But, UNH gets a stable pony who won't rock the boat, will take orders and toe the party line...

Just for $h!t$ and giggles ... I spent the day yesterday at my day job, which involved a private civil mediation session, the details of which I am not at liberty to discuss here, or anywhere else. But you do get to meet some very interesting people, and yesterday we had a group of one retired judge, and a half-dozen attorneys representing various clients. Mediations often involve lots of downtime, where parties/judges have to wait for the outcome of private discussions they can't be part of. I used my time to bounce the "Morin case" off of them, giving them the same source materials I've used, and I'd shared with you last post. To a man (well, including the two women attorneys), they pointed to the fact Morin specifically earmarked a specific amount for the library, and had the option to gift more OR gift it all, but clearly didn't. One person thought the U should have come up with a $100,000 "matching gift" to solve the optics issue (so, $200K total for the library), but admitted there was zero legal obligation for them to do so. NONE of them felt Mr. Morin was aggrieved or "victimized".

Gotta hurt, having your lunch handed to you by a backwoods, in-breeding, coloring book reading "Buford" in front of the UNH galaxy, Mike.

Oh, Buford. This really is funny stuff. By tomorrow, you'll be posting that you lunched with your friends John Roberts and Samuel Alito and they agreed with your "Morin case" analysis and revealed that they also use Wikipedia as a primary source for information. Long term drinking makes such delusions possible!

I think it's far more likely you spent yesterday sleeping it off until late morning. A double helping of spaghetti Os for lunch followed by a trip to see your personal injury lawyer to check on the status of your pending SSDI claim capped off your activities.

I'd imagine you're going to talk to Herb Brooks at dinner time tonight after you finish a handle of peppermint schnapps. Cheers!

The thing about Buford is he can dish it out but, like so many frauds and social media Cowboys, he can't back up what he claims or take the heat. Trust me, he's a delusional dope. He lives off spaghetti o's, peppermint schnapps and Fox News.
 
I'd like to see UConn take the title. They built a new arena, upped the commitment and deserve the fruits.

Otherwise, BU, which is my runner up favorite team in college hockey.

Oh, yeah, I remember both those years, when Souza was an assistant at Yukon. UNH did not play the Huskies in 2013/14, when the Huskies were still in Atlantic Hockey. In 2014/2015, UNH beat the Huskies all four times by a total score of 16-4. It has all been a downward slide for our Cats ever since.

Enjoy da Gahden, even if a Bud Lite costs $20.

Let me put this another way, he has ZERO leverage to be anything else.

I encourage my senior staff to speak up and challenge the status quo. They have a track record of success and have earned the right to push back and question certain strategic initiatives.

While I make the final decision, the team has a seat at the table.

Souza does not.

Really? Seemed to me that Souza called all the shots on his contract renewal last spring and now he is coasting again until his next renewal time in spring 2027.

Hey, how about ‘dem Yukon Huskies?

Our AD fka as SB made a decision that was pennywise and a pound foolish to keep her budget projections intact.

A replacement would be a hell of a lot more expensive than 240 large.
