    You know who had a terrible record as a head hockey coach? Grant Standbrook.

Their record is not good but they have ALOT of talent and scoring ability. This is not RPI. Agree with Drew that Brown should be a lay-up.

      Just looking at some D-1 stats...it's a testament to hockey unpredictability that former Maine and BU goalies Romeo (Ohio St) and LaCouvee (Minny St) are currently #'s 6 and 8 nationally in GAA. Good for both of them. Romeo couldn't stop much of anything as a Black Bear. How does he now have .928/1.93 stats over 18 games? Goalie lessons?
      I don't think that anyone is a lay-up for this Maine team, but I do expect a win at Brown.

      As for Romeo, I've seen him on the tube twice this year, and he looked as good as his numbers indicate. ( Ditto, tonight.) Not sure where that came from either, but I root for him.

        He went 27-13 in his third season at BG where as Reddy went 8-24-6 in year 3. Great comp.

        Maine Hockey: I want to believe
        43-21-4 (.662) in games I attended over 4 years as a student
        104-47-14 (.669) in that time
        3x FROZEN FOUR

        11-20-2 in games I've attended since. (2-2-1 under Red)

          Maine up to #22 in the PWR without even playing!

            A lot of hockey left to play, but that is a section of the PWR that is well within concoeveable distance for an ALB.

              Reverse that. He lost 44 games in two years at Bowling Green and 58 in three at Boston College. The question asked was what coach had turned his team around after such bad starts. That's the answer. Sorry if people don't like it.

                It is.

                Maine is a pedestrian team, but there's maybe 4 elite teams in all of college hockey this season. I expect that there'll be a lot of flux in the PW for the final berths down the stretch.

                  A team that wants to challenge for an at-large bid will have at least three wins between now and next Sunday.

                    Oh I agree. If they can beat and underachieving Terriers squad, drop in the layup that Brown should be, and earn a split or better at Matthews, I will deem this team to be "for real" more than I already have, and I'm more of an optimist than most in this thread.

                      Miami beat Denver last night & Quinnipiac is starting to win some games. Maine went 3-1 against those 2.

                        Meanwhile Northeastern lost to Bentley and BC lost to Michigan Tech.

                          As they say on any given night...top/good teams will get beat...this season has seen parity all over the College Hockey landscape...Maine has to seize the chances/wins against anyone is important, not just in the Conference and in the PWR but towards building confidence in the team itself.

                              Actually NU tied 3-3 at Bentley last night, but might be equivalent to a loss in the almighty PWR.

                                oh yes. 0-2-1. UMass lost to mighty Yale.
