Fair enough, that's a pretty thorough scouting report.

Stramel signed. The two potential MJ defects must be far along in the decision to skip the NLI. Brzustewicz isn't going to be drafted, generally not a good sign coming from NTDP but there are a few every year.

Any names of interest? EDIT: did the research. Michigan: Hunter Brzustewicz (awesome Polish name!), Frank Nazar, Gavin Brindley Notre Dame: Logan Cooley Minnesota: Cruz Lucius BC: Ryan Leonard BU: Michael Chambre Leonard and Chambre are 05's called up from U17 and I don't think Brindley is a full time NTDP member so he might not announce it with them. Nazar and Cooley are likely first round picks, Lucius is also a blue chipper. Polish dude is a bust.

I said he didn't look ready for the NHL during the first game against Quinnipiac, was upvoted a lot and saw the rhetoric escalate from there. He was making mistakes then that he hasn't since though, and considering he plays half the game and has the puck on his stick so much, mistakes will happen.

Miami knew the only way for them to steal a game this weekend was on the PP, and executed well on that front. Likely focused on that all week at practice.

Smith and JBD are both likely to be added

It's a whole new world with the one time transfer rule though. Sounded like he has a good head on his shoulders and parents with values aligning with our program, but he needs to be in the lineup if we want him for the long haul.

Well, the former is pretty reliable. Haha

Ethan Bowen shows as not committed on EP. Can someone check heisenberg's (sp) list?

I think it was a little more nuanced; we had space for both before diving into the portal. There were red flags about his character (and his dad's, which is indicative of the times) prior to that, though. He, Moore and Rowe all kinda seemed out of place coming from old money/upper class suburbs. Not our type of recruit. Moore hasn't seemed like a brat, to his credit, and was vetted by Berry through a personal connection of some sort, his dad may have played with Berry?

Sounds like Rowe would not have worked out here. https://madison.com/wsj/sports/college/hockey/why-goalie-cameron-rowe-wasnt-on-the-badgers-mens-hockey-bench-in-the-3rd-period/article_9fedb4ca-7b86-525a-919d-4787562af603.html

Would we have heard by now if Kleven was going to be suspended?

Friday could have gone either way, tonight they were definitely the better team. Do Savoie/Kleven have auto suspensions for ejections with so little time left?

Someone cut the CC announcer's tongue out. Talking about an upset with 10 to go only up by one.

He did the same thing against Western (as did Schmaltz that same game).

LOL. One week too late.

The weakened pwr incentivizes playing for the tie, which sucks. However, 3 on 3 usually results in a winner, which keeps casual fans engaged, an important consideration for a niche segment of what many of us consider the best sport. I enjoy watching it, maybe I'm not enough of a purist?

Incredibly disappointing to have the captain take a penalty to put us down 5x3 for 2 minutes. Wound up chasing on the scoreboard all game because of it. Touch/possess the puck is your only objective there.

Pedal pubs always make me chuckle thinking of when the bike hipsters in Minneapolis threw water balloons at one in use by off duty cops and got their $hit rocked. Didn't expect to get detained for that!

Based on the first period, Bucky is in for a long series against Michigan. Moe keeping them in it.

With Matt Mania expected to go OHL, the only skater remaining of the 15 on Brad's watch list is Gracyn Sawchyn. We got 4, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Duluth and Michigan got 2, and 2 went MJ. Generic Bleu chipaz/gryndaz comment.

Quinn Finley to Wisconsin. Green Bay native so no surprise

Does anyone have the graphic design chops to mock that sweater up in black and white jerseys? Seriously, that is a thing of beauty. I'm literally craving the roasted almonds looking at it.

I like it much more than the regular jersey
