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.

Assuming a marquee game in an arena's first year could be. They've only announced season ticket info

What's your plan for getting tickets to the CC games? Likely gonna be at a premium on the secondary market. If I lived in Springs I'd get season tickets and pay for them by scalping the DU and UND games.

Defenseman Sam Rinzel out of Chaska has to be on our radar. Selected to the U17 tournament team and a high USHL pick. Anyone know anything else about him?

If he wants to play pro (likely overseas)/coach high level, he should come home. If not, he should take the keys to the kingdom out east.

At least two prospective recruits on the Blue roster

Fair enough, I didn't consider admissions, just whether or not the program could explain why they brought him aboard (to whip his arse into shape).

While his decisions were awful and he clearly wasn't remorseful until it all came crashing down, he has likely learned his lesson. Army would be a good destination for him; punks get the Private Pyle treatment at service academies.
