Livanavage is presently a HS junior so not him either. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/daily-skate-brady-ferner-to-turn-pro

Correct. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/daily-skate-brady-ferner-to-turn-pro "He was only the third of his kind." Only three South Dakotans have played for UND. Milton "Prince" Johnson, Webster SD Russell "Buzz" Johnson, Webster SD Brady Ferner, Dakota Dunes SD @SIOUXELEVENS ... when I replied "Johnson brothers? What?" <-- You had no idea that was a clue.

Injured late in regular season.

It was more “swing my stick around one-handed” and oh-crap, got him in the face. D’oh!

So you admit one was good enough to be top three of a USHL team and the other was a bottom six? And that’s before I mention “top three” guy’s USHL team had a substantially better record. Top three on a winner, or bottom six on a losing record?

UMD’s run is statistically, historically abnormal. They will return to the mean.

Apparently it’s “Defense Optional” night at Madison Square Garden. 1-1.

Now spicy pork flashes some serious leather. Mika Z gonna have nightmares.

That was not spicy pork’s fault … PIT was doing their best “Michigan v DU” defense impression. Yeesh.

“Spicy pork and broccoli” back in net for PIT (DeSmith out).

Think you got woes? Boston College on line one ... 2021-22 - did not qualify 2020-21 - lost in NCAA regional final (v SCSU) but never played regional semi because of Covid, so no win 2019-20 - (no tournament) 2018-19 - did not qualify 2017-18 - did not qualify 2016-17 - did not qualify 2015-16 - lost in NCAA semis (Frozen Four) to Q'piac in Tampa Or Boston University on line two ... 2021-22 - did not qualify 2020-21 - lost in NCAA regional semi game (v SCSU, see above) 2019-20 - (no tournament) 2018-19 - did not qualify 2017-18 - won regional semi (v Cornell), lost NCAA regional final (v Michigan), 2016-17 - won regional semi (v UND ), lost NCAA regional final (v UMD) 2015-16 - lost NCAA regional semis (v DU) Full disclosure: North Dakota 2021-22 - lost NCAA regional semi OT v Notre Dame <-- probably will cause another rule book change 2020-21 - won regional semi (v AIC), lost NCAA regional final 5OT v UMD <-- game that caused a tourney structure change! 2019-20 - (no tournament) 2018-19 - did not qualify 2017-18 - did not quality 2016-17 - lost NCAA regional semi (v BU) <-- game caused a rule book change! 2015-16 - "Tampa" -- National Champions

DU had some grizzled, grind veterans and some young flash in 2021-22. Interesting combination ...

Quit. Making. Sense. But I do believe we'll have a late add this year as well ...

BU talked to both Hastings and Leaman and somehow landed on Pandalfo. I'm willing to bet BC talked to both of them as well, but Brown was supposedly Yowk's guy.

Brown was a longtime assistant under Jewwwy Yowk at BC. He ran Dubuque (USHL) last season. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=612

Supposedly BU talked to Leaman, and they liked him, but BU couldn't beat what Providence is paying.

Kinda sad Schlossman didn't cover radio too ... or is that for his next deadline.

Pandolfo? Thinking they had better options ... BU fans at USCHO seem relegated to this, that he was their safe "in the back pocket" choice and BU only looked half-heartedly beyond him.

Sometimes the blind squirrel is hit by the bus.

... and a Van Halen album ...

Forbort ain't picking up the check at dinner tonight.

He changed undapantz. ... or he's showing his true colors.
