Mel Pearson to Michigan Tech
man.
The past couple of weeks have not been kind to us Michigan hockey fans.
On another troubling note: where is the offense going to come from next year?

Not entirely surprised with the speculation that was going on and not a super huge loss as he can still come back.
All in all it's a big story but I don't know if it's OH NO's.
I have been getting this message repeatedly since about two weeks after the Wings won the Cup in 2008. And It has come from a number of different sources over that time. It sounds ridiculous and way too good to be true, but I can't help but wonder if Pearson leaving the program is in some way related. See how I turned bad news into potentially good news there?
Nooooooooooooooooooo !
I thought I just read like last week that he was staying. What happened since then?
Wonder if the Tech contract has a buyout number if Mel wants and has the opportunity to return to Ann Arbor in a couple of years...
My theory as well. It keeps Mel moving forward, but also allows him to come back for the head job if he wants. In any case his taking a head coaching job can't be held against him and I wish him well.

<br>As far as the OHL I wonder if stuck around to try and get the recruits nailed down.
That was expected. I had a feeling it was going down. It felt like Mel turned down tech a couple weeks ago just to get a better offer.
I'm at work so I think getting up on my desk and dancing would be inappropriate, but I am definitely dancing on the inside.
In case anybody is wondering why, I am a tech alum and a huge Huskies hockey supporter.
Sit down.
In Ann Arbor there is no Mel
(No Mel?!)
At MTU he'll dwell.
The WCHA can still go to hell
But the Huskies'll get their coaching from Mel.
This is full of win.
Copycat... I posted this 3 weeks ago! Things did look like they were going to sweeten the pot. Looks like it was enough. I'm going to show up to MTU hockey games wearing an M jersey every time I'm home next winter.
Hope to see you back in Ann Arbor one day, unless those Babcock rumors actually happen. The recruiting possibilities of that have me drooling even with the .01% chance of it actually happening.
