UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

Here is the official 2025-2026 UNH page. Where will this team with significant turnover go? Is Michigan State the further west we go?

East Lansing already beats Princeton, Troy, and Canton the past three years.

Didn't we have Schenectady mixed in there during the Troy/Princeton season(s)? Ref will know, such an unforgettable destination after all ... :ROFLMAO:

Now that I'm thinking more about this ... there was definitely a trip out to Rochester two seasons ago too.
 
In other news only slightly related to hockey ... per today's UL, noted UNH private donor Tony DiLorenzo a/k/a "TDL" - widely attributed as the key mover behind the upcoming Whittemore Center upgrades, from his private island lair in Portsmouth - is considering a run for the soon-to-be-vacant CD1 seat in DC next year.

Oops, my mistake, Rochester not Troy two years ago. And, yes, we were in Schenectady three years ago when we also visited more westerly Canton and Potsdam.

Also, should we get to Lost Wages this coming April, Jellsville, that would be about 3 degrees longitude farther west than Tempe four years ago.

This discussion pains me because I did not get farther west than Fort Ticonderoga until I was 20 years old.

Caught Carl Palmer at the Flying Monkey in Plymouth, NH, a few years ago at Chuck’s suggestion and was not disappointed as Carl has been doing his best to immortalize his bandmate buds Keith Emerson and Greg Lake. And Carl has me reminiscing about the opening tune ‘Wipeout’ at UNH home hockey games back in the day. Composed and first performed by the Surfaris in 1963, ‘Wipeout’ saw more acclaim soon thereafter when covered by The Ventures on their ‘Let’s Go’ (1963) and ‘On Stage’ (1965) albums. There is a fine YouTube video near the top of a google search that features a two-drum kit presentation of ‘Wipeout’ with the Ventures’ Mel Taylor and special guest Max Weinberg. Fantastic and I think worthy of the 43.5 million YouTube views over the past 17 years.

I'm a huge Ventures fan, and been so most of my life. Love the Wipeout video featuring the dueling drummers of Taylor and Weinberg. :cool:
 
Hockey trivia: Which former Bruins player was the real-life inspiration for the Tim "Dr. Hook" McCracken character in Slapshot?

I'll be back on this weekend with the video answer 🏆
 
Figured I share the following with you folks, after another amazing ELP Legacy gig last night at the CCA in Concord NH ... what follows is a Trans-Atlantic version of the "young guys" and their version of Pictures at an Exhibition, which Simon (the silent partner) performed solo on the Chapman stick last evening. Bravo!!

Hearing good things on the grapevine about the early days of UNH Wildcats 2025/2026 preseason ...

I heard from a reliable source (not Potluck :ROFLMAO:) that the boys are really working together as a team. The older group is making an early difference in the locker room. Season tix were released today. A UNH turnaround may be closer than you all think!! (Forever Optimistic!)

I’m sure this happens each year. It still is coaching.
 
HEWBA Poll:
1. BU
2. Maine
3. BC
4. PC
5T. Yukon
5T. UMass-Flagship
7. UMass-Bazin
8. NU
9. Mac
10. UNH
11. UVM

This poll does not seem to square with my 20 wins prediction for the Cats, unless HEA is even more exceptional than last season. What do the Hockey East writers and broadcasters know that I do not know? Oh …….. right……..
