It’s hard to find a consensus opinion among the coaches of the New England prep school hockey teams on almost any topic. But we tried anyway.
And if there’s one dominant theme that emerged from New England Hockey Journal’s survey of NEPSAC head coaches this spring, it’s that Richard Gallant of St. Mark’s is a stud.

About the poll: Coaches from all conferences and from independent schools are represented in the survey, which granted anonymity to the coaches to allow them to speak freely.
We’ve broken the survey results into two parts: This first version, which reveals coaches’ reactions to on-ice performances, and a second part that explores coaches’ feelings on the state of NEPSAC hockey now and its future.
