Mercyhurst up 2-0 in Dinkytown...

We burn commits much more than they burn the team. Rizzo is payback for us poaching Kawaguchi.

Brandt is doing better on PxP. His passion for the program is enjoyable too.

Pinto potted one just now.

My impression was CBS was unhappy with him for doing the pod during college football playoffs.

Agreed. Although ss.com regulars don't sweat it. Onhockey.tv is still up too, often sites like that don't last season to season. It won't be the same without Holden, either.

Omaha and Clown get 3 on CBSSN.

Regarding Eiserman, who was the last player we had from MA? That and Quebec are noticeable blind spots of ours.

LaDue sent down. Just like on the Capitals, Chara takes a spot and LaDue ends up in the A.

Any interesting tidbits in the print version of the Gerald season preview?

The new recruiting restrictions also favor blue bloods and big names. Nobody is reaching out to schools like Lake Superior State on their own, and prior to a certain age that's the only way to start a conversation with a recruit. Look at what schools had freshly available commitments announced on Aug 1st and soon after.

Good catch. He'd be a good add.

Here's to hoping the Argus leader is wrong. https://www.argusleader.com/story/sports/minor-league/stampede/2021/09/22/sioux-falls-stampede-season-preview-ushl/5793589001/

Frattin biffed on a breakaway to ice it. He scores there and the Leafs move on.

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.

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).
