What if he wants to play with his brother again and have the final season he deaerves. You'd have to think watching yesterday's game had an impact on him. Wouldn't be surprised that if he doesn't sign in the next week, he stays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxForever Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Be interesting to see what guys stay and go. Jost should stay for one more year. He idle, Toews, played 2 years at UND. Comeback and a wear a "C" next year as a sophomore! Tomek and Wilkie? Do they transfer? I would encourage Wilkie to stay and hit the off-season super hard. I feel like if he can score a few goals his confidence will change tremendously. I think you're gonna see the coaching staff bring in as many offensive freshman guys as they can. Next year's team could be pretty lethal. Pogo? He'll probably leave, but should come back for 1 more year. He hasn't hit his ceiling yet in the college level. He had an okay junior year but I selfishly expected more. Cam - not sure why he would leave, other than getting a contract. He'd be playing in the ECHL/"maybe" a few AHL games if best next year. The road for goalies is a difficult one. No one else should leave, but there's always surprises. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxBoys Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 People need to quit using Toews as an example for Jost staying. Toews came in a year early. If Jost signs, he will have signed at the same age as Toews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxBoys Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I think something that could play a factor will be whether or not the NHL releases the players to go to the olympics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dden3 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 The Avalanche are such a mess. I hate to see Jost go into that situation. Bad owners, bad GM, and rookie coach. And its been going on for awhile. They are at the salary cap and have some guys signed up to long-term deals who can't play dead in the NHL. Don't know what he can do except stay until his signing deadline is passed, but that isn't going to happen. He is not ready for the NHL though. Especially with a bad team where he is thrown into the fire immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shep Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 What's the ratio of Frosh who left and ended up with non-descript pro careers v the Frosh who left and went on to sustained success? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toews and Kane entered a much different situation, when they signed with Chicago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally was to busy watching Oshie to notice Toews. Not saying he wasn't good or anything but Oshie had the offensive flare that I'm sure other teams tried to contain. That left Duncan with every opportunity to shine and he took full advantage of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he should stay one more year and work on his scoring, and his title winning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I bet if you asked Osh, he say that he got to play with Toews. You didn't notice Toews as much, because he was always in the right place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jost had a couple games where he looked like he was NHL ready...he also had games where he was a non-factor such as the last one. For Jost it might be a similar situation to Nick Schmaltz. Depending on off-season moves by the Avs, he would turn if the roster situation becomes favorable. True, his deal slides should he turn and not get 10 games in the NHL, but if he is all but guaranteed his 10, he'll go. If I'm in mgt in Colorado, I am also a little concerned by the lack of true development/improvement in his game over the past few months.

farce poobah Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 If I were coach (and its good I'm not), I would have had talks with Jost about Captaining the 2017-2018 UND team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Reasons for Jost to stay: 1. Captain UND on a chance at redemption and a natty run 2. Chance to win WJC gold with Canada 3. Know that you are the man, and live the college high life for one more year 4. Work on small details with a lot of practice time, have more time to get bigger and stronger 5. Uncertainty on NHL vs AHL 6. Colorado does not have the pieces in place for him to enter a winning culture/environment Reasons to go: 1. $ 2. $$ 3. $$$ 4. Achieve your lifelong dream suiting up in the NHL 5. Good chance at full season in NHL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last month of the year, UND was finally clicking and proved without a doubt they were a Top 10 team in the nation. I think they could be truly dominant depending on who stays. If they only lose Ausmus, Poolman, Boeser and Rinks, I think they are one of the favorites going into next year. Losing only one other (even if Jost), I still think they are a Top 10 team, lose another and things get a little dicey. I think next year you could potentially see depth at forward that we haven't seen since 2011. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
