We wouldn't have even gone to overtime without his outstanding goal against BU. He's the only guy on the team capable of that type of play. The guy who was playing last Saturday seemed like a different player than one from pre-Christmas this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did make a few spectacular plays against us that were first assists. He didn't seem to dominate but he certainly left his mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxScore Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I'll include Poganski in my lineup for now since he hasn't signed yet. If he does end up signing I'd probably slide Bowen up to play with Gersich and Mismash and put Kawaguchi or Jones in his slot with Hoff and Yon. Mismash-Gersich-Poganski Janatuinen-Gardner-Adams Yon-Hoff-Bowen Smith-Simonson-Olson Poolman-Peski Shaw-Bast Wolanin-Johnson Cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adams - Simo - Njones - (Yes I know I'm missing Bowen in a 3rd or 4th line role, does he play over Simo? ) Wolanin - Peski Poolman - Shaw Johnson - Bast Cam Tomek This is a tough roster to predict....Assuming the Caps don't need Gersich yet, Wilkie signs with Fla, and Tomek bounces....here is my prediction: Gersich - Kawaguchi - Bowen Yon - Hoff - Poganski Janatuinen - Gardner - Simonson Olson - Gornall - Mismash Bast - Poolman Kiersted - Wolanin Peski - Johnson Johnson Thome Anderson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be BCHL is a offense heavy league so have to think about that with his numbers a little bit I just think Adams is a better all around player right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both Kawaguchi and Adams are going to be fantastic college hockey players. One thing to note is Adams is a year younger and plays in the USHL, where stats are much harder to come by. Regardless, love bringing in Top 10 scorers from either league. This is going to be a very good Freshman class. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Collin Adams will be good next year, so he'll play. Nick jones should also cut the lineup especially without pogo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but they played without Boeser, or a healthy Boeser for a good share of the season. That accounts for some of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 So guaranteed top 6: Pogo, Gardner, Gersich, In the hunt for top 6: Mismash, Guch, Adams, JJ, Hoff, Jones In the lineup: Simo Olson Bowen Battling: Gornall Yon Wilkie Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Take from it what you will but Polanski on TTD talks about guys coming in and figuring out their roles and says "I think WE'LL have a very good year next year" I know it's not a guarantee but gave me a little hope that he wasn't looking at bolting right away.

We don't know what we are going to get from the freshman, but this seems to be a very solid class of forwards, all who can contribute. When you look at the battling category, that's a great group of forwards all who were either freshman or sophomores this year (same with the rest of the lineup). Next year might not have the big names in the college hockey world, but when was the last time they're going to be this solid up and down the lineup? This team is going to be very deep. Who is going to have a Gerisch type offensive explosion next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is going to have a Gerisch type offensive explosion next year? I think this team could be a very good team next year. As you said, no All-American candidates, but just a very deep roster of forwards, a much more experienced group of dmen, and a senior goalie. I think they'll surprise some people. And I don't see the d-corps having quite the rough stretch at the beginning like this year. What a progression for C Poolman, Peski, and Johnson from season start to finish. Very good incoming forwards should make lineup choices hard for Berry. My votes for offensive explosion: JJ, Bowen, Gardner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Where I see this team going is where Duluth is today. - deep, solid group of upperclassman defenders - a group of forwards that there really isn't a superstar but they get it done* *Toninato and Iafallo were nice recruits but not top tier type guys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
