  1. Love the black jerseys, always have. I wish the whites and greens didn't have any color on the shoulder, I think they would look cleaner with the layout they chose. That's just my opinion though.

    Turcotte will go top 4.  Wisco will be nice next year and even better the year after.

    Not a chance Turcotte goes top 4, maybe top 10, probably between 12 and 16. Zegras is going to go before him for sure, he's a top 6 talent. He was the center on the Caulfield Hughes lines the last two games. That kid is special, unbelievable vision and awareness. Whoever takes him and I hope it's my team the Blackhawks. I do want them to take Bowen though. Imagine Zegras's vision setting up Kaner or Debrincat(although he has that in Strome).

    Where did you hear that? From everything I’ve heard, even after “falling” because of injuries, he will be between 2nd and 4th round.

    Rizzo fell from 57 at the midterm to 84 final rankings. Blaisdell from 52 to 80 and Caulfield from 50 to 67. Not great to see for our recruits. On the positive side Pinto is at 28 and could rise more if he keeps tearing up the USHL playoffs, might sneak into the end of the first like JBD.

    Judd Caufield playing his best game of the U18 tournament today against Finland.  Has been a force killing penalties and bringing the physicality.  Just got stopped on a shorthanded breakaway, so still scoreless for the tournament.  

    Only player on team USA without a point, but man was he good today. Always in the right position, great net front presence, set up a nice pass where the guy rang it off the post.

    Watched the U18 game last night, and noticed he coasted quite a bit.  Hope that is not what we can expect.  Those kind of tournaments don't really give us an accurate picture of success at the college level.  Those guys will obviously make impacts, but don't know that they would dominate, especially their freshman year.  Most of the big names won't last longer than two years in college.  You would have thought by his performance Wahlstrom would have ripped up college hockey.  We have seen the same kind of thing with the World Juniors, guys who absolutely dominated but didn't really do the same after the tournament. 

    I've got the whole thing set to record on NHL Network, unfortunately I'm with family until Sunday night. I'm hoping I see a better game than you saw. I've read he's tough to play against. Wondering how many of the top players on the U18 team have aged out and how that affects where they put him in the lineup.

    Oshie injured badly by a dirty dangerous slash boarding play tonight.

    Sounds like his season is very much done.

     

    I'm pretty sure he broke his collarbone. That's where he grabbed when he rolled over and the way he skated off.

    What was the story with Eades?

    Barking up the wrong tree bud. I've been trying to figure that out for years. Those who know don't share why. I get it, it's a forum for hockey talk not gossip about someone's personal life, but it is annoying.

    Caulfield higher than Rizzo........I guess from what's been said here over the last year, that surprises me.

    He put up good numbers in the USHL 25 pts in 28 games playing on the third line. I know the USNTDP is stacked so it can be deceiving but that's good numbers in limited minutes.

  9. Pinto moves up to 28 in final draft rankings for NA skaters. Caulfield at 67, Blaisdell at 80, and Rizzo at 84. Donovon drops to 97. Luke Bast at 137, Cameron Rowe at 4 for NA goalies. So possibly a 2nd, 3rd, two 4ths for forwards, you could drop the 3rd to a 4th and the 4th rounders to the 5th dependant on how strong the international skaters are this year. That's a good haul next season regardless of whether or not Rizzo comes in.

    At roughly 1 hour 18 min. Follows through on the head contact. 

    You're entitled to your own opinion but personally I don't think that's a five. 2 min roughing in my book. If that's a five then almost every skirmish in an nchc rivalry game would be a 5.

    I busy with something else....

    HEARS TV MAN SCREAMING IN COKED UP EXCLAMATION...

    I looks up expecting something along the lines of the titanic being ridden out of the ocean by bigfoot.

    Nope... just a mildly pushed shot attempt that didn't even make it on net.

     

    a few seconds later melrose wakes up from a stupor and washes a newly incoherent and irrelevent thought into his mouth with the perpetual concoction of availavle alcohol

    Haha nailed it...well written

    Agreed completely.

    However I was one (prior to the decommit) who was definitely interested in what the plan was for him in 19-20 as he’s never done well in the big tourneys with team USA nor had he performed well in junior games.  The USHL is downright nasty however it isn’t as tough as college hockey.  So the fact he’s currently at 16 straight games without a point is telling.  Playing in the ushl next season should be the path for him. He hasn’t rushed development whatsoever, he shouldn’t start now.

    Exactly what I was thinking. He has never scored outside of Minnesota high school hockey statisically speaking. That's why I'm higher on the recruits we have coming in. Not saying he won't be good in the future but he probably won't produce until his late sophomore or early junior year. That seems to be the opposite of what we need and would end support for him based on our fan base me included. I haven't given up on guys like Adams but I expected much more.

  13. Big request, please feel free to ignore. If you have the time to be vocal about this weekend please do. I'm "stuck" at a wedding all weekend. I'd like to find out how we're playing and if I should watch my recordings when I get home Tuesday.
