I hope it all works out for the team and the young men that have already committed to play there. It must be hard on them and their parents, not knowing what is going on.

So this effectively means they've lost two head coaches before ever playing a game? Let's not forget Kenny Miller was all but signed to go there before going to Marquette.

not to worry, still more than 2 months until season starts and they have about 30 resumes.

Not to worry???? You can't be serious...

The season may not start for 2 more months, but decisions have to be made NOW (or in the next couple weeks) by players/families. Add in the track record - two coaches already dropped out - and you have a very scary situation. Who's to say coach #3 won't leave a month or two after taking the job?

If NAHL commissioner keeps on extending leagues footprint like this the league will continue to be an unstable option for players. The players are the ones hurt by this kind of crap and its not their fault. NAHL needs to flush the toilet.

Any news on the coach search? I was told by someone at the tryouts that Soskin told the coach he wanted to see more roughhousing.

Yeah, kind of the opposite of what type of coach we have.

Is this sarcasm? The Albert Lea coach apparently shook his head when Soskin wanted the players to rough it up a bit. Cullen said no fighting in the Express tryouts. Sounds similar to me.

What a bad situation, I guess they are trying to get players to go out to a team in PA that is not even Sanctioned by usa hockey. I had heard some rumours on the subject, but nothing concrete. I will make some calls and post about what I hear.

Here is a link to another site where there is pretty good chat going on.
