Very well said!

This should be an open discussion including talking about coaching
decisions, even Shawn's.  And how is it tarnishing Shawn's memory to talk
about his very excellent coaching style and decision making?

Adults should be able to disagree and have differing opinions including
thinking that Maine is not perfect. There is no reason to get upset with
someone just because they have a different opinion on something.

It's too bad that you had to defend yourself for having your opinion.  It's
much better to just have to defend the opinion itself.

Come on people, let's try to be respectful of everyone on the list so that
more people will be comfortable and will contribute.

The "Shawn" reference was merely to illustrate the play in the defensive
zone can not be tolerated. It is the reason they nearly lost to Lowell and
Merrimack, and did loose to BC and UNH. I thought this discussion list was
just that; a forum in which fans could voice thier opinions during the
course of the season. If one's comments are going to be slammed because they
aren't touchy-feely enough, one has to wonder about the purpose of the list
in the first place. There have been comments about "lurkers" on the list
that never post thier opinions. This is why. The focus of my post was
disreguarded and the symantics attacted. What about the rest of it? As far
as tarnishing Shawns memory, watch it; them's fight'in words.
