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.

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.

Hopefully we do the same sometime during the youngest Poolman's tenure with them.

Whoever made this for him was pulling a prank on him. His fault for not looking it over though.

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

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.

Vegas having the Frozen Four that year may preclude them from getting WJC.

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.

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.

CC got a kid from the SJHL.

Can Bump immediately play elsewhere? He could use another year of juniors based on his stat line.

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.

Portal bait

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.

Reports of how pitiful the PAC 12 media deal is pretty much confirm Oregon and Washington to the Big Ten. Would love to see college hockey in northwest; USA hockey is practically uninvolved in the CHL-saturated landscape.

Luke Johnson to the K

November 9, 1996 at the old John. First Sioux game I ever attended. Rookie Dave Spehar scored and the place erupted. Gophers won 10-6. Lots of goals, scrums and jawing. Old time hockey during the lull between the North Stars and Wild. My friend and I got a kick out of the elderly couple in the front row with Sioux jerseys that spent the whole game standing and pounding on the glass. Passionate doesn't begin to describe them. Getting young Spehar after Dave spurned Duluth would be great.
