* Leo Wlasow, who is a senior academically but a junior eligibility-wise, has informed Maine he will not return next year and forgoe his final year of eligibility. * Maine recruit Robert Ek, the Sweedish defenseman who returned to Sweeden after he wasn't immediately cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse has finally been cleared to play. Reportedly Ek will return to Maine, but it is not clear whether that will be for the winter semester or next fall. * With Greg Cronin resigning as head coach Monday, and Grant Standbrook and Mario Thyer out on recruiting trips, junior defenseman Jeff Libby did the honors on WZON's "Hockey Coaches Show" Tuesday evening. Unfortunately no one called in. --- Deron Treadwell ([log in to unmask])
