Danton Cole. He seems good, US Under 18 has played really well the last few years, and he's got a huge recruitment advantage unless he was a total rear end in a top hat.

I've only met Dean Blais and Dave Hakstol. Both were really nice when they didn't need to be (restuarants, bars, stores, etc.). Sure I've seen them both lose their poo poo on the bench, and a lot of people are different when they're behind a whistle than on the street.

What I meant is that unless he is such an insufferable lunatic while coaching that it separates him from the general coach crowd, he's got an advantage in scouting reports, and personal relationships with top young American and international players over most other coaches.

Seems like it's largely been this way. At times the "midwest" regional is in like Philadelphia. Awesome they're going to allentown though, i hear it's a great arena.

Also god that Walt Kyle story is so drat odd.

Instead of giving North Dakota a loving de facto home game every year in the regionals, what if we just allowed home sites again so everyone else also got a shot at a home game?

Both of those programs are really on the ropes and are likely going to be forced to either merge or disband, I'm guessing he saw the writing on the wall.

Yeah, the commissioner can say they're not worried, but losing North Dakota had to be a massive blow to the conference as a whole, especially when it seemed to come completely out of the blue.

The WCHA's own site puts a more positive spin on it, but man that can't be a good sign on the whole. I really hope it works well for them, but woof...
