Limiting the roster size is not a good change.

While they don't reference hockey, it's a safe assumption full scholarships for the entire roster will be available soon. https://lsutigerswire.usatoday.com/2024/07/24/ncaa-expected-to-approve-expanded-scholarship-limits-in-college-sports/

I know, he's a SK kid but is eligible for NTDP in a similar fashion to BC resident EJ Emery.

Beuker is interesting; he is eligible for NTDP and lists Portland as his hometown because his mom is from here and met his dad when he played for the Winterhawks. Someone at beer league said they divorced and she's back in town.

He mentions Kane Johnson in the article.

LaDue to the S, Wilkie to the K

Or boot St Thomas early.

Just looked up the draft order, Fargo didn't have a pick until 26 and he was picked with the 20th. Slick move on Sioux City's part to turn a second round pick into first and second round picks in the future.

What have you heard about Lindberg and O'Neill after their first year with NTDP? Just a guess but Wyatt Cullen will probably not be as easy a pull as these three were.

My recollection is this board was more critical of Spicer and agent/family/etc than Berry, especially with Ryder Donovan as an example fresh in everyone's mind.

Sounds like he wasn't ready for college, and not just the game. Brad Berry right now:

Friend of a friend who grew up on Summit Ave said it's because some of the most influential families in MN live right there and have for generations. The James J. Hill house literally backs up to 35E right as the slowdown starts.

Brock Nelson, Derek Forbort and JBD on initial rosters.

Blue chips out of GTMA that go the college route never go west of Ann Arbor. Can't think of any at WI or MN either.

Recruiting against a school that is circling the drain shouldn't be tough.

Thanks. Possibly a nephew, or just a coincidence when we're so used to top players having family pedigree.

Is Carter Casey of Grand Rapids Jon's son? The latter is from GR as well.

Jost gets a league minimum deal with Carolina, at least it's one way. Never would have guessed Cole Smith would be making more than Jost.

Players like Swanson and Livanavage make champions out of college teams, glad to have them both for hopefully 4 years each.

3 players in (arbitrary number amount)!

Emery was the 3rd Californian in the 1st round. The new state of hockey...

How's NY's cap situation? That was part of the problem with the Avs rushing Jost if I'm recalling correctly.
