The worst bailing on the team since Tambellini. Not gonna root for him at the next level.

Does it have to do with a requirement to attend home games?

Touché

I hate to say it, but Michigan succeeding will be good for the college hockey vs. CHL battle.

Herter > Sandelin? Simple question. In all seriousness, if WMU starts pumping out some NHL caliber D out of nowhere...

Brad was correct about Herter joining Western. Good for him.

Just noticed the Friday home game against Omaha is a Teddy Bear Toss. Is this a first?

Rinzel to the Gophers. Can't win em all.

My personal favorite of the replies:

Pretty sure he dropped a bit to the 3rd round. Wonder how draft position affected his decision making process.

Bowling Green, Lake State and Maine did at other points in college hockey history too.

Wow, McCabe is gonna feel like he's wasting his time in class at Lindenwood after going to SPA.

Maybe Duluth has truly arrived and can now offer players early then yank the offer if they don't develop as expected. We've been doing it for as long as anyone else. I admittedly don't pay any attention to their recruiting but can't imagine they've done it much if ever.

Cooper Pierson to Denver. High USHL pick out of SSM.

GFHockey's post from 2018 when Sanderson committed:

He's also a high WHL pick for Winnipeg. Maybe he pulls a Bethune.

Surprised it didn't happen with him being a local too. Good to blaze his own trail though.

Livanavage is a good get. Hoping to hear we got Cade Littler too.

DeBrincat's reception

It'll be interesting to hear the rationale. I assumed it's NIL related but it could be due to not skating last year.

MJ players are compensated, and the rights to their likeness are granted to their team is probably at the root of their argument.

Bizarro world where MN drafts our players and Ottawa does not.
