Looking at this website, I notice Russo Jr's bio says "he played his college hockey at Gustavus Adolphus" but he is not listed on the Gustavus site which lists all players since 1964. Hopefully the Athletic Director does a little better diligence this time.

Can anyone confirm Brian Urick? You sure they didnt get Mike Keenen to leave Calgary? His teams haven't missed the playoffs since 98

He is right. Urick is going to get eaten alive by these people! I don't know if he even has any head coaching experience. Good luck Brian :roll:

It would be nice to see some stability at Minnetonka from a coaching perspective. They have a great infrastructure over there.
