Canadian university hockey's national champions once again reside in Fredericton after the University of New Brunswick's Varsity Reds brought home the David Johnston University Cup. It was UNB's third championship in four years, an impressive feat, all of which has occurred under the leadership of UNB Head Coach Gardiner MacDougall. Coach Mac knows a thing or two about university hockey. This is a level where young men are transitioning into the next stage of their lives. They're competing on the ice and in the classroom, and when they graduate, or even before, will have several options when it comes to professional hockey.Gardiner stopped by Glass & Out to talk about hardware and life as he enters his third decade (sorry Gardiner)at UNB. Enjoy!

Enjoy, and go ASU!

Something huge happened to the New York Islanders this past summer. They traded John Tavares for Barry Trotz. Yep, that's exactly how it went down. Even deal for both sides we'd say. Seriously though, while the Islanders' fans were busy buying toy snakes to throw at Tavares in his eventual return to...Long Island? Is that where they play? Anyways while they were doing that, the Islanders were ushering in the era of Lou Lamoriello and Barry Trotz. Somewhere along the way the Islanders players decided they'd listen to the new regime and find a way to replace Tavares. Then they authored one of the greatest year over year defensive improvements the NHL has ever seen. Besides a new coach and a vacant locker stall where once sat a superstar, how did they do it?
