I just realized how much high-end HC turnover there was

I’d say BU, DU, UMn are 3 of the 6 most talented programs in the country (UND, BC, UMich) and they all turned over this summer

Recruiting for these 2 years might be very lucrative for the other power programs and the almost power programs (UW, UMD, ND, MSU)


UMich turned over last summer too...I really hope we’re taking advantage




We had a chance to talk with Quinn on his first visit to ND

. . . his first year; which was a rough one for him. Surprising to hear him say the one of the toughest parts to coaching was dealing with high profile players PARENTS! Doesn't have to deal with that in the NHL.


It's generally not the parents....

usually it's the kid listening to his "advisers". By the time a blue chip kid gets to that level there's often a posse.
