Watching UMass Mankato, Morrow is noticeably getting out-worked. Smooth skater but 24 year olds push back harder than 17 year olds.
-
It seems to be a rite of passage for their blue chip freshmen to be photographed at the big house. Always struck me as odd.
-
We should play Minot State (instead of Manitoba) every few years.
-
Couldn't watch it live and now the NCHC app won't let me pull it up. Typical gong show from whoever they outsource the app to.
-
Wouldn't be UND without a draft pick scratched.

https://www.collegesportslive.com/video/heast/mens-ice-hockey/mih-minnesota-state-at-umass-100221/ Not sure on the specifics, but I believe all hockey east games will be free on that website.

The good news for the CCHA is they are guaranteed at least one win. Beyond that, however, could be a brutal night for them.
-
That was my first thought, but they were pretty public with their decision on Ronaldo, so it's hard to imagine different circumstances for Cam.
-
Yikes.

The question is, how long was Red a hindrance on recruiting? Mel is clearly much better.

Especially with using actively drinking as an excuse to not wear a mask (an approach which I wholeheartedly endorse). -
My "Edina kids are divas" post could be interpreted that way, if that's what one is trying to hear. It's disappointing to miss on him no doubt, but plenty of fish in the sea. Reading his commitment article on Rink Live we didn't really have much of a chance.

Anyone know about Brasen Boser? 17 year old from Minot playing for Wenatchee. Looks like he pulled a Weatherby and used a family member's address in WA to get an in-state spot; their roster says he's from WA but EP lists him as Minot, and he played there recently.
-
I hear ya... but we recruited him as a last minute walk-on out of Juniors, and I'd wager he developed his hard nose game in the NAHL (i.e. away from home). He wasn't a blue chip at EHS. Not a knock on him at all; he scored some big goals for us and embodied our style of hockey.
-
In theory a pipeline from Edina would be nice to have; multiple kids from every team play D1. But truthfully, would Edina divas fit in with Sioux hockey? I say this as someone from a similar socio-economic status high school in the cities. Rich kids don't toughen up until they leave home.
-
No, I think our posts were done simultaneously. A meaningful amount of our recruits don't make it to campus and some of those who make it here originally committed elsewhere. The game is the game.
-
This thread melts down every time a recruit chooses a school other than ours. Meanwhile we pick up studs like Pinto, JBD and Sanderson before anyone has even heard of them. Clark stings for the same reason as Shaugabay in that both had family ties to UND, but then again, Gersich was related to the Brotens.
-
There is some sort of standing room section, right? Good to know about the cramped seats. I swear there was talk about using World Arena when DU and UND came to town but it must have faded out. Season ticket holders could pay for them by putting those two games on the secondary market.
-
Cruikshank and Middendorf are listed on their rosters. Can't think of any others off hand. EDIT: everyone listed on Brad's portal list for Big 10 schools shows on their team's roster, so either he removed the player, miss them entirely (unlikely if it was a quality player) or they haven't been removed from their former team's website yet. Or Myers is just plain wrong. 2nd EDIT: He said it was a player in a league they don't cover, so not NCHC or Big 10, and that he wrote up about the player in June. The latter could mean it's a MN native or WCHA/CCHA player.
-
All the beat writers together. Jess Myers mentions that an unnamed Big Ten program had a prized transfer coming who was left off the roster after the team required the vaccine. Brad thinks Denver is the number #1 team in the country. I'll have a hit of whatever he's smoking...

He might have replaced Primeau on the preseason all conference poll. -

Good point. As long as it alternates between Boston/Detroit/Providence out east and Minneapolis/Fargo/Denver out west. No need for Allentown or Albany ever again -

Is he still doing carseat selfie video reviews of fast food? Haha. Dang bro you're practically a celebrity! -

Agreed. If ESPN wasn't involved and monkeying with times to get better ratings it wouldn't be a problem. Had Loveland circled as a potential Regional to attend, less likely now. Curious how this shakes out with attendance and bids going forward. -

2nd time in just a few years that a UND loss in Fargo results in a change in college hockey. Last time was the offside rule, this time a day off is added between regional games. The first I agree with....the latter not so much.
