No news, but nice to see.
The bigger news is they are now ranked 16th in today's USCHO poll. Largest jump for any team this week

Teams NOT making the Top 20: BU, BC, UNH, Maine, Lowell Textile School.

Amazing what the right coaching hire can do.

I don't care what it costs to keep Carvel for a long time, they have to. I don't think this is catching lightening in a bottle, I think he can bring sustained success and he's only 48. If he can be our Jack Parker it would be amazing.
Raise the bar, do the minimum.

^^^ It seems like money should be the main issue and we have to find a way to take care of him. The NHL is the only place he could go that has more prestige and that might be beyond our control. Hockey East is at the top or at least close to the top of college hockey conferences so I can't see him leaving for another college job unless friction develops between Carvel and the administration. That seems highly unlikely with the current regime (Swamy/Bamford).

Give me at least 5 more years and hopefully 20 for a Parker-like run!

Up to #11 on USCHO poll. Has the hockey program ever been ranked this high?

That was following a mid-season tournament they won right? Oh boy how the wheels came off that season...

^ Yes, I know how early it is, but it is mind bending that Us and Q are the only NE schools that are in the top 17 in that link.

You can say that again...after being ranked 5th, they only won 3 games the rest of the season!
