Boys hockey: Longtime coach Norm Gagne second to none in Maine
Pacing atop the 8-inch-wide bench behind his red-black-and-white-clad Scarborough Red Storm skaters, Norm Gagne’s thick rasp echoed off the boards. “Dump it and change!” “Skate!” “Noooo!” His voice trailed off, but it was still audible.
