It's unlikely they win another National Championship with that philosophy, especially since every Canadian is NCAA eligible now.

I always thought Minnesota was better with only Minnesota kids. 

Looks like Ilia Morozov (2008) will be playing for Miami as a 17 year old freshman for his draft year.  

Hakstol is no doubt a better coach than Motzko, but I do think Motzko has done a decent job and constructed a roster that had a good mix of role players and elite talent.  It will be interesting to see how the players that aren’t top round NHL drafted  from the CHL transition to college.  I have a feeling many will struggle just like typical freshmen.  We just need to worry about ourselves and get back to having that good mix of players that are committed to the program and the work ethic expected.  Our identity needs to be more than the shiny new transfer portal and CHL additions.
