    Firing Red would be like moving Bangor to Vermont.

                Nolan gets the C, Gaudette, Sikura and Cockerill get A's. It's basically been known for a while, but all 3 flight risks are officially coming back. Great off-season for NU.

                    Captain- Nolan Stevens

                    Assistants- Gaudette, Cockerill, Sikura.

                    Was told that Kurker was the only signed player who was in attendance. John and ZAR I believe had games today. Kurker, being in Albany, just clinched a playoff berth so maybe he had some leeway.

                    Was told that Jon Barry and Eric Williams were not in attendance...can anyone who went confirm or deny that? Seems suspicious to miss the banquet. Adding suspicion is that apparently Madigan announced the expected recruiting class has 5 forwards, 2 defensemen, and a goalie. I knew the 5 and 1 but was under the impression there was only 1 D coming in (Solomon). So someone would be coming in, meaning someone is likely on the way out. Wonder who that could be, if anyone?

                      Random notes, although you could probably gather most of it from the recap the team put out.

                      ZAR was leading scorer (obviously) and MVP. Gaudette won most exciting player and Sikura most improved, so it seems like the team made sure all of the "big three" got their moment.

                      J. Stevens won the Coach's Award. He was called one of the best captains in NU history and it's hard to disagree.

                      Shea and Davies split rookie of the year for their work coming in and each jumping right into the top pairing at various times.

                      Jamieson won Unsung Hero. I was honestly thinking it would go to Cecere or Schechter, but he's certainly earned it as a lifetime achievement award. Everybody around the team loves him for a reason.

                      The captains have already been mentioned above, which should mean everyone is back. Not that that stopped Smatz or Karlsson. (Looking back, it's hard to believe we gave Smatz a letter)

                      Only person I can think of that was really snubbed was Filipe. Nolan was too, but when you miss 4 months that tends to happen. In Matty's case, it's more just bad luck as he came in with a good freshman class, a trend that will hopefully keep going year in and year out.

                        This was done simply to pat him on the rear and say "don't worry you are special too." His two Dubuque teammates got letters, and I guess he was gonna be grumpy and salty, so the coaches gave him one as well. From what I was told, it was not a unanimous decision among the coaches. Whoever had second thoughts should have gone with his gut.

                        Anyway, that's in the past. John was easily one of the best captains in NU history, and I'm glad Nolan is back. Offense should be great again, hopefully keeping all the D together two years in a row will help it improve. I'm looking for Davies and Williams to get better defensively this offseason, and Shea to continue his growth. Really feel Shea can be a lockdown-type defenseman next season.

                        • Great points all. Filipe will get a letter soon enough. Long as he continues to mature his gm & also mentally.. rest will come along no doubt.

                            I inferred from your last post that Williams could potentially not back. Were you talking more about Barry? Also, I agree a thousand percent with Shea, he's going to be special.

                              I was always puzzled by Barry's lack of playing time considering his size and the fact that he was regarded in some quarters as something of a stud.
