Scott Paluch is out as Bowling Green's coach at a time when the future of the Falcons' program is in question.

Scott Paluch has left as Bowling Green's head coach to join USA Hockey. It's the same move that Brown's Roger Grillo made a month ago, but Paluch is leaving a program that has major questions about its future, and this move adds to the intrigue. The long-term health of the program is up in the air, and that's part of what interim coach Dennis Williams will guide the Falcons through.



Surprise, Surprise

Minnesota native and new Minnesota Wild pick Nick Leddy stole the spotlight Friday night in Montreal.
Minnesota native and new Minnesota Wild pick Nick Leddy stole the spotlight Friday night in Montreal.

The Minnesota Wild provided a surprise Friday in Montreal, twice passing over Minnesota native and Gopher forward Jordan Schroeder to select Eden Prairie, Minn., native and Gopher-to-be Nick Leddy with the 16th overall pick, making Leddy the first player with college ties selected in as this year's draft unfolded. Schroeder fell to 22nd for the Vancouver Canucks, after three other incoming recruits: Harvard's Louis Leblanc (18th, Montreal); Chris Kreider of Boston College (19th, New York Rangers); and Colorado College's John Moore (21st, Columbus), who may or may not appear in the Springs this fall, Jim Connelly reported in his draft-eve notebook. ... The college picks came faster and more frequently Saturday, including second-round pick Drew Shore, who heads to Denver this fall.

Question of the Week

Nebraska-Omaha's record was just below .500 this season. How quickly will Dean Blais have an impact on the program?
The impact will be immediate: UNO will make the NCAA tournament next year.
Like Jeff Jackson at Notre Dame, Blais may have one year below .500 before skyrocketing subsequently.
UNO has been up and down over the years, and hiring Blais will not change that dramatically.
