Re: UMaine Black Bears, 2nd verse same as the first 2016-2017
Bottom-line is this: Maine is in a death-spiral under Red. That much is clear. (They are already there, actually, and have been for a while now.)
No telling for sure if Tim would have kept them relevant, but I seriously doubt that he would've done worse than Red.
Whatever currency Maine used to have is already spent. Our Bears are kinda like Clarkson... A nice past past and no future in sight.Last edited by Fishman'81; 04-17-2017, 07:41 PM.

Unless they can find a coach to breathe new life into the program, Maine hockey is a bottom feeder. It was fun while it lasted

Originally posted by Ma#1ne Hky View PostMaybe Maine can take a look at what Northern Michigan did yesterday and hired GRANT POTULNY, a young assistant @ Minnesota...he has experience in the College Hockey playing ranks (Minnesota)...played some AHL hockey, worked as a Assistant Coach in the World Juniors, both times the USA won the Gold Medal...and is still a young man @ 37....a man with NO TIES to NMU, but a young and coming Coach that all he needed was a place to hang his hat. Time will tell on this hire but a recipe Maine should..."IF/When"...there are changes @ Maine. I have a name that could interest many teams...UMass-Lowell's Cam Ellsworth, top assistant to Norm Bazin...and he is also the goaltending coach @ UML...a big sore spot for Maine...oh well just throwing it out...anyone else out there have IDEA's.

It's hard to believe any Maine fan would ever forget the name of Grant Potulny who scored a PPG in OT of the 2002 Frozen Four to defeat Maine 4-3 for the National Championship.

Originally posted by Sean Pickett View PostThat may well be true, but according to Maine's 2010-16 NCAA Financial reports Coach Whitehead was better at fundraisng three of his last four seasons than Coach Gendron was in his first three:
Coach Whitehead
2010 - $131,665
2011 - $193,601
2012 - $131,592
2013 - $ 90,361
Average - $136,805
Coach Gendron
2014 - $ 97,078
2015 - $105,001
2016 - $150,002
Average - $117,360
Not that either is very good. BU raised $254,506 in 24 hours on their annual giving day less than two weeks ago on 5 April. Of the public schools I have at least one NCAA Financial report for Maine ranks 14th out of 22 in average contributions.
SeanWhat kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?
