Re: Michigan Tech Off-season Revised - Onward and Upward
Meh. I get the need for continuity and Shawhan is definitely qualified, but after Pearson and the other names being bandied about this is pretty underwhelming. Getting Ellsworth on staff would make me feel better though.Beat em' Beat em' MTU!!!

Interesting to note that he was a goalie...like Coach MacInnes...Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

Re: Michigan Tech Off-season Revised - Onward and Upward
I like the pick. He seems passionate about the program from his between period talks with Dirk during games. I think he learned some from Mel also. Seems to me he has good hockey sense and is knowledgeable about the game. Good hire for the Huskies. The players we have now know his personality and he knows their's. It should be a smooth transition. Looking forward to the '17-'18 season.MTU Huskies 3 time NCAA Champions... and going for more.

Re: Michigan Tech Off-season Revised - Onward and Upward
Not likely Ellsworth is going to Houghton. You don't immediately go to work for the guy that beat you for the same job you were vying for, unless that guy's name is Abe Lincoln, or you were previously reporting to that position (see: Shuchuk, Gary).
Besides, I'd like to see Shawhan pick a true outsider, or at least someone who has spent a significant amount of time coaching outside the Great State of Superior (I know that's Ellsworth, but...see above).
EDIT: This is all assuming he keeps Shuchuk and only hires one new assistant, which I don't see why he wouldn't for at least another year, unless he doesn't agree with Shuchuk's recruiting/coaching style.Last edited by FadeToBlack&Gold; 05-29-2017, 09:10 PM.
