University of Maine 2024–2025: Freel-ing good

Does anyone else feel like there is some serious $$$ flowing into the program now?
I have suspected this too but I have no factual evidence to back it up. Maine hockey feels like a cash machine right now. Between the hiring of Barr, the Alfond donation, facilities overhaul, success of the program, Maine feels like one of the it programs in the country.

The details are there as well, the jerseys look shaper, the white helmets are back with the white jerseys, these are little things but for whatever reason it felt like there wasn’t an ounce of extra money prior to Barr’s 3rd season. Now there’s a waiting list for season tickets and the buzz is back. It’s hard to tell because it’s not like we have eyes on the cash and slush fund of the program but it surely feels like they aren’t hurting for money the way they once did.
 
Someone is absolutely funneling money into the program I can pretty much tell you that. Barr is a good salesman there is a reason we have gone from a forgotten program to a full remodel in short time. Not to mention getting top tier talent
