If UVM beats NU in the Hockey East title game - can/will 7 HE schools make the NCAA Tournament (none being UNH or UMaine...)? Something to watch...

Good God I hope not....don't mean any ill will towards the other teams in the league, but seven Hockey East teams in the NCAA's would be catnip for the "woe is us" types on this board. Just one more crutch for why the program is struggling, one more reason to set the bar and expectations lower.

Can you imagine the outcry if your boy MadAgain won it all?

If Lowell doesn't win, then it would be great to see Northeastern win.

Northeastern gets mad WIS props for exposing the frauds from NICC as well. :) :D :)

Those 'other 'Cats' are out now...the boys from the Heights win it in OT on Ryan Fitz' goal. First time back to the Garden for them in what, 2 years? Will be a great semi Friday.

Do you mean "woe is us types" on this thread, as opposed to "this board"? I am thinking that IF seven teams from any one conference got into the NCAAs, there would be conspiracy theories galore, you know, like "eastern boss," "western bias," "ivy bias," and the like.

On another note, we are now tied for 38th in the PWR, but the Tigers (who?) have a chance to move up, as does Army, which is two PWR points behind us. Rob Mo, Air Force, Mercyhurst, and Holy Cross ahead of us, with the former two earning the chance to pick up more PWR points.

Hey, after four-month hiatus, "Fire Mike Eaves" thread is back; what do their posters got that we don't got?

Reality maybe? Some of our posters are excited that an early UNH departure got a goal in a pro hockey minor league game.

I truly feel for people like you, who lack the mental capacity to be BOTH extremely disappointed in UNHs hockey program and happy for Poturalski at the same time...

I suppose it comes easy to me, as someone who managed FOUR years of a foreign language while in HS...

My comment wasn't directed towards Poturalski. My mental capacity isn't the issue. Your lack of reading between the lines is...
As far as foreign language, you got me, I only had three years of foreign language in HS. What you meant by that I don't know. Although I do regret taking Spanish instead of Chinese since I spend 5 weeks a year over there.

Well, there is only one player who left UNH for a professional minor league with eligibility remaining, so maybe it is...

I understand, now, where you were going - and I agree - again, four years of French...

I was trumpeting my intelligence in comparison to lost UNH recruits who only managed one. A little side snark if you will...

China, who saw THEM coming? Haha...

Interesting observation from a Foster's reporter talking about UNH basketball ............ "With the hockey program floundering and in an awkward situation between head coach and heir apparent, this just might be the hottest college ticket in town next winter."

Synonyms for floundering include ..... thrashing, wallowing, stumbling, flailing, dithering, faltering, and dawdling. No wonder I'll wait a couple of years before I renew my season tickets ....

Al Pike?

Not sure that the ship will be righted in two years, unless the recruitment process picks up with some blue chippers this year and next. I think that next year is our best shot for getting back to the NCAAs, although without Poturalski, and perhaps Robinson now, I realize that we might be hard pressed to obtain double digit wins again. Sadly, I do not see how the recruiting can pick up until DU is out the door, so probably at least "four more years" before we see a turn-around.

Hard to disagree with any of that, really (and sadly) ...

"Hottest ticket in town?" Apparently bigger than the women's team or the Oyster River Bobcats.
