Gotta assume that Augustana is going to be in the Summit soon. Why else would they have added hockey but to appease the hockey schools in the conference?

Watched Sudden Death for the first time in 25+ years and was pleasantly surprised that Jay Caufield has a speaking role as the goalie feeling under the weather.

Anyone know anything about these guys? A few years ago they'd be getting offers already.
-
Why bother, at the current rate they'll be lucky to exist by 2030. Their enrollment went off a cliff and the looming demographic bomb hasn't even gone off yet. Mark my words, SCSU will be the first D1 hockey program dropped not by their athletic department, but due to the school shutting down.

Much like the Bump to Forks rumor this guy posted, this guy feels like he's making a lot up. Neither Chyz nor Smaby applied for the job, apparently. Sounds like an announcement will happen by the end of the week.
Interesting. Thanks for the heads up. Steward seems unlikely too.

I've expected Simpson to coach in some capacity at UND ever since his last game.

The St. Thomas home game vs Minnesota will be played at the X.
Hopefully we do the same sometime during the youngest Poolman's tenure with them.

Minnetonka is a D1 factory, glad to get one and have a foot in the door.

Could this preclude a signing, ala Judd this year?
He was part of the DeAngelo trade that the league blocked this summer, so it might have more to do with that. But if he signs no complaints here.

Based on Laurila and Lindberg not mentioning Harvard in their stories by Brad it seemed like O'Neill was the Fargo/Moorhead kid they were after. With all their commits over the past few days the window for whoever it was may have closed though. Glad to see us get a local NTDP kid.

They already use the practice facility and looks like they get a decent crowd at their games.
Climate Pledge Arena is also used by Seattle University men's basketball. So, Washington could play there.
From what I can find Seattle doesn't have a club team anymore, but it would be a nice club rivalry between Washington and Seattle.
Seattle also has put in to host the 2026 WJC along with Vegas, Tampa, and St Louis.
Vegas having the Frozen Four that year may preclude them from getting WJC.

Washington has a few new growing pains to figure out before biting on a puck.
For sure. They have some debt to square away. But the major airport in Phoenix was an under-acknowledged in ASU's feasibility.

Washington has free reign on one of the world's premier hockey cities just over the border, a major airport in town, and can use the Kraken practice facility that's a few miles from campus while they figure out the arena situation.

Will B1G take more PAC schools than just USC/UCLA? Likely.
Will they be getting full B1G shares at first? Likely not.
Will they get more than if stayed in PAC? Likely.But much of the difference will be eaten up in travel costs.
It'll be interesting to see what % of the annual 70 million they offer.

Big Ten should make adding a hockey team (with lacrosse or field hockey as the title IX match) a condition of joining the conference. If they are going to give money to the new schools, tell them how to spend it.
This is in reference to the report of Big Ten meeting to discuss the addition of some Pac X schools.

Miller signs in Slovakia.

Pretty light day for commitments so far, for sure. Looks like only Miami from the NCHC has picked up a recruit.
CC got a kid from the SJHL.
-
Can Bump immediately play elsewhere? He could use another year of juniors based on his stat line.

7-2 Czech beat up on the US.
Swanson with one assist in the loss. He was also named an alternate captain for the tourney.
Only watched the first period; he had a bad clear on the PK that gave CZ a 5 on 3. But the coaches were leaning on him and he showed speed and vision.

Pohlkamp is going to be a miss…Bemidji? I honestly think he’s going to regret that one. He sure is looking really good. He really needs to play for a bigger school. I’m guessing he’s a great kid that holds to his initial commitment. That’s awesome…but man, he’s too good for BSU. There I said it.

Dang, that VT Twitter account must feel sheepish.
I thought a player couldn’t enter the transfer portal after a certain date?Timing would work out for a MN commitment for sure, Motzko I’m guessing would be feeling a bit stressed after the late Cooley signing and needing to add some skill (and numbers) up front.
Coaching change and scholarship reduction are the reasons allowed outside the normal window.

Keane an assistant coach for the Force. Awesome for both him and Fargo.

Watch #24 Mac Swanson, he's on PP1 and PK1.

D1 or D2 in ACHA? What is the current pecking order in club hockey in the state?
