That Canton roster got decimated from last year to this year. Makes you at least wonder if thats why after doing a national search all summer there was no announcement and they ended up promoting the assistant. Might have been hard getting an established coach to take on a new program that was already in rebuild mode after just one season.

The story I heard was the job was offered to a good, established prep school coach who would have brought stability to the program and built it up in a short period of time. However, he is Canadian and after committing to getting him a visa, Canton reneged when the process became too costly in both time and money. They have settled on a coach who is the remaining member of the staff that built and then 'decimated' this team, one of the reasons they lost the players they did. Very short sighted on the schools part and their struggles will continue.
Refs doin their best to get a Gustie win. 5 penalties called on Superior in the 2nd. Gusties score on a 5-3 and a regular power play. Finally call a couple on the Gusties late in the period, Superior will start 3rd on the PP.
