EDIT: EliteProspects had Winnicki listed wrong, it's been brought to my attention he's a forward. Looks like that is the first double digit output by a defender since Louis Côté in the 70s.

Seriously though those white middle class and upper middle class Canadians bring such a cultural diversity to ULowell!! And foods! Is it bacon or ham!! What is this Canadian bacon?? The maple tree and maple syrup. So rare and only found in Canada. And don't get me started on the unique pop music. Bieber time!! And those exotic blue jeans they wear!!! Did Canada invent the skinny jean??? I can't imagine the educational loss of that cultural loss without Canadian hockey players on campus!! Nothing against Canadians and we all need them or many of our schools would not have D1 programs but let's not make it something it is not.

My overall summation was a momentary cynicism of all things college sports and what it has become not so much a dig at Lowell. Lowell just triggered it...:--)
You don't need to expain yourself to the whiney Lowell kids. Trust me, it isn't worth the headache.Originally posted by HokydadMaine will be better this year relative to rankings than BC will be this year

Manchester has loaned Rob Hamilton to the AHL's Springfield Thunderbirds.
Speaking of Manchester, Mario Puskarich has been great for them so far. 7 points in 9 to start his pro career, not badhttps://twitter.com/TheVTHockeyBlog

Re: UVM Off-Season Thread 2017
And I said it in the recruit thread but I'll repeat it here: a source tells me that Misley is 95% likely to be headed to UVM for this upcoming season (so a year early)https://twitter.com/TheVTHockeyBlog

Re: UVM Off-Season Thread 2017
Also, if anyone cares what happened to the second UVM cut from last season (Jake Kearley), he will be headed to UNLV to play club hockey, per the UVM ACHA Twitter page. Mitch Ferguson, the other cut, is with D-III SUNY-Geneseo.https://twitter.com/TheVTHockeyBlog
