This program has also not been quite the same since Cavanaugh left for UConn. I don’t know how important his role was but you can’t help but notice that our last title was in 2012 and he left in 2013.

It will be interesting to see who stays and if it’s enough to let Jerry make one more run. I bumped into Knights dad a few weeks ago and he said Spencer wants to stay but may not have a choice. I interpreted that to mean a not insignificant signing bonus was on the table or the Panthers just want him there sooner rather than later.


I think Cav was the coach to ride the kids' asses, but their youth and lack of strength and experience are more important. I've agreed with Dick for some time - the high draft pick, NDTP kids don't stick around long enough to develop. All four #1 seeds are now out before the Frozen Four - I don't know if that's happened before (checking now). The teams that are left have mostly older kids who stick around. BC has eight 19 y-o's, and two 18 y-o's. UMass has no players under 20, while Mankato just dominated the Gophers; they only have three 20 y-o's, none younger than that. St. Cloud has just one 19 y-o and three 20 y-o's. Duluth is a fairly young team, but they only have eight kids under 21, and they have the most experience. Time to get away from the equivalent of basketball one-and-dones.


As has been discussed ad nauseum, it was his ability up until 2012 to get guys to stick around. It's not a coincidence that the tournament drought coincides with what have been the upper-class years of Hanifin and the lying member of a no-good race Milano. As Claver said, an incredibly important few months coming up. If he can get Newhook and Knight to stay that will be huge.


McLaughlin needs to comeback. There I said it. :ace


If McLaughlin left I don't think it would be a big deal. In fact, it may be addition by subtraction. I don't have very many good things to say about any McLaughlins. I have yet to meet one who has brought credit upon his name. Dick may have his own thoughts.

Hearing that the Florida Panthers are close to signing prized goalie prospect Spencer Knight, their first-round pick, 13th overall, from 2019. Could happen today or tomorrow.

it's not what you want

edit: he's gone

Karow and Lovell in the portal.

I'm a little surprised about Karow, but maybe he wants a grad program that BC doesn't offer, or maybe a program that has a better shot at winning it all next year. As for Lovell, the only thing I can think of is that the staff told him he wasn't in their plans.

I'm waiting for someone to post that a couple of large, mystery d-men will transfer in.

Sad. Any chance we can hire their coach away when Jerry retires.

My guess is Carvel gets an NHL offer. I don’t we will see many Jerry York level of coaches staying in college hockey. 1/3 of the NHL is made up of former college players and both the BU and UND coaches got NHL offers a few years ago.

Go Eagles!
