The '96s are a real special bunch... I also cant wait to see Luke Johnson.

Watkins scoring did not translate, but Murray's did... That is just such an offensive and unbalanced league that you can trust the numbers. Just look at the Gopher guys from last season.

"Contributing to the Deliquency of Minors" could be the new Gopher slogan. Gopher Hockey: Contributing to the Deliquency of Minors (since whatever date makes out head-2-head look best)

I think one thing that Parks brings is more of a physical presence. Outside of Rowney and Knight we are a little short a forward in that catagory.

For better or worse, I never trust BCHL stats. They are a little like when I play NHL 12... I am really curious how our Tambellini and Murphy's numbers will translate to WCHA play.

Nice to have some firepower lined up. The last few classes are hurting some from MJ defections. The Midwest kids are less likely to bolt.

Notice he was the first pick in the USHL Draft. This kid has a description that sounds alot like Kristo to me. Still a long time til we see him. Based on his selection I suspect he is USHL or USA bound. http://draft.ushl.com/page/show/510200-draft-tracker

Kelly Green... nice...

Wow this was a steal: Dad was a D1 player for the U of M Gophers and his mom is sister of NHLers Aaron and Neal Broten.

Since he is a sophamore I assume Gersich will be a '15 recruit.

These seem to always get down to about 15 one way or another.

And here is UND's potential list of 19 forwards in 2014. Mark MacMillan Michael Parks Brendan O'Donnell Connor Gaarder Stephane Pattyn Dan Senkbeil Rocco Grimaldi Bryn Chyzyk Drake Caggliua Colten St. Clair Coltyn Sanderson Adam Tambellili Jack Rowe Luke Johnson Luke Voltin Wade Murphy Nick Schmaltz Chris Wilkie Austin Poganski

OK last post didn't work so here is the potential list of UND's 18 forwards next year. Derek Rodwell Mitch MacMillan Mark MacMillan Michael Parks Brendan O'Donnell Connor Gaarder Stephane Pattyn Dan Senkbeil Rocco Grimaldi Bryn Chyzyk Drake Caggliua Colten St. Clair Coltyn Sanderson Adam Tambellili Jack Rowe Luke Johnson Luke Voltin Wade Murphy

Dillon's brother?

Caggiula

Don't forget the have another olympian coming on D too.

My 2 cents: Kristo and Grimaldi should be on different lines as they are so similar, but also smaller. St. Clair is going to have some serious pent up rage to lay out on some of his first hits. Look for Rowney, Parks, Mattson, and Simpson to be huge players. This team MIGHT be to balanced to have anyone in hobby talk, but Kristo and Grimaldi have the skill. Big potential but question mark in nets. Keep Rocco off Twitter...

Somehow I will forgive him for not making one of the biggest decisions in his life on our schedule...

I love UND, but I am not going to badmouth Portland. It is a great city and he is choosing from 2 good programs, I think UND has a ton to offer and hopes he chooses the college route.

I don't understand the negativity, is this reverse psychology? We have a better league, program, history, facilities, nhl track record, alumni. He should pick UND.

Yes.

Back on topic. Seth with 1-2-3 today...

Depending on what Doumilin (sp?) Krieder (sp?) and Bjugstad do, UND might be preseason #1. Hoping for postseason #1

Yup, lets get that season opener up!

Sup Seth? Come on man, jump on board a loaded team in 12-13. Come win a championship or 2 at UND. You can be Sioux family for life!
