If you had "less than seven games to first 2022 injury" on Buxton, you can cash your betting stubs now.

From QU Bobcat spots to NHL "zebra" stripes. https://scoutingtherefs.com/2022/04/33780/nhl-debut-for-referee-jordan-samuels-thomas-in-chicago/ https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=107535 I'm surprise more former UND guys haven't landed on this path.

The lad is from Red Deer, AB, ... so are the Bast (Gabe, Luke) boys. https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/685905/keith-mcinnis Waterloo: General Manager Bryn Chyzyk Head Coach Matt Smaby

Buxton, Carson Wentz, Jake Sanderson, see their name and you're surprised when it's NOT a new injury report.

We'll have to Nash all that out while we're Stills ... Young.

In today's world you left out Kathy Lee Crosby, and That's Incredible. <-- I'll smoke out the old timers with those references.

My recollections say UND announces the fall roster about finals week in May. It's only lately they put out "teaser tweets".

Answer key.

Have you heard of this thing I call ... morning? Downrange in Sioux Falls is SSE.

UND needs to do nothing. UND may choose to do something. Call it a teachable moment.

1 of 2 Second one is Spicer. The two players are nearly identical physically, both about 5'11 and close to same weight.

Two players, different years, same team/league. Team League GP G A Pts PIM +/- U.S. National USHL 25 7 11 18 14 11 Gavin Hain 2017-18 U.S. National USHL 26 10 6 16 10 5 Cole Spicer 2021-22 Name the players. (Highlight the post to see the names/seasons appear.)

Where Spicer lands will be very telling.

Any truth to the rumor that Morrow's defense partner was called "Laundry" ... because he got hung out to dry so much?

There's a huge number of moving parts to get there. Of today's Summit 10, only six offer football, and one of those is St Thomas who is transitioning to DI and playing Pioneer League right now. They're a ways away from dealing with the other five.

The MVFC after Murray comes aboard (12): MVC (6): UNI, Ill St, S Ill, Ind St, Mo St, Mur St Horizon (1): YSU Summit (5): UND, NDSU, SDSU, USD, WIU Being the eastern island, YSU is going to side with the MVC contingent more often than not. If those 7 (as @nodakvindysays) decided to pull a "WCHA" and recreate the Gateway FB Conference without the Dakota 4 there's not a lot that could be done. And I really wonder which way WIU would swing. The OVC is bleeding teams; would WIU go that direction.

With the portal, what's the point? It changes almost by hour. Wait for the official roster when the season kicks off is all any of us can do (other than have their own spread sheet to track the roster and the recruits pipeline).

On the east end of the Ray Richards property is a right triangle (roughly 1000 N/S x 900 E/W x 1300 SW/NE). It is the parking lot, current club house and greenskeeper shed, and driving range. I'd say a range where you'd drive either S or SW would fit in. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Grand+Forks,+ND/@47.9162299,-97.0797702,548m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x52c681355bbc5e25:0xb6b94d87c5f3d5a!8m2!3d47.9252568!4d-97.0328547 The facility in Sioux Falls is on a lot roughly 1200 x 700. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Great+Shots/@43.5850905,-96.7590454,704m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x166177a21816cb70!8m2!3d43.5863182!4d-96.7599114

How old will UND verbally committed forwards be on Oct 1, 2022? (forward list from here) Yrs-Mos-Days 20-04-28 Strinden 19-07-09 McLaughlin 19-02-28 Blake 18-12-20 James 18-06-24 Panzer 18-05-18 Singleton 18-04-19 Spicer 17-09-19 Perron 17-07-27 Slipec 17-05-23 Klee Highlight the post to magically make the names appear. For as long as I can remember, forwards come in at 19 for the good of everyone. The exceptions are ... exceptional.

... in scoring on a seventh place USHL team. He is 17. He was asked to play a full USHL season on a non-all-star team to allow for his complete development. He chose a different path.
