There is no way that Hummel could beat out Oshie IMO.

None of the north american players mentioned are even eligible in 06, they are all 05 draft prospects.

Ammerman hasn't committed to anyone yet. Rumors are that Ammerman will go to Duluth though in order to get out of Lee's shadow.

Mario Lamoureux had a 2 point night on friday. Miller had a goal on saturday. I didn't see it on any of the posts.

Dowzak did smear one guy into the boards right at the very beginning (first shift I believe). Hopefully we can lock him up soon so that he doesn't have to think about where he is going through his senior year next year. It would help to have a big strong dman so that no one tries anything with Duncan as far as cheap shots.

Thanks for the update on Shattuck. I went to todays game and was impressed with the team as a whole but a few guys in particular. As far as having a nose for the puck and creating scoring chances, Okposo takes the cake. He seemed to be everywhere the puck went. Toews had a couple of goals I believe (one for sure) and looked quite good. Genoway looked solid. It's hard not to notice Dowzak with his size, but he looked very poised. It is hard to believe that Esposito is only 15. He looked great. Did anyone else go to the game? Any thoughts?

Does anyone know how Shattuck did in the game today? Who stood out? I couldn't get over there to see it because I had to work. Does anyone know when they play tomorrow? I plan on going.

Brad Miller with a 2 point night (1g,1a) tonight. 2 shots on goal and 2 points isn't half bad.

I plan to at least see two of Shattucks games this weekend. I am guessing there will be some good hockey.

Plus from what I have heard he is the type that sits in front of the net and knocks in rebounds. We NEED that type of guy.

On hockeysfuture.com there is an article titled Lighting It Up (I don't know how to link it). Anyways, it talks about who of young players are doing well in the AHL. Parise is mentioned as is Vanek, yet Bo is not even though he is leading the rookies in scoring. Potulny is mentioned as someone that hasn't lived up to the author's expectations.

Pats win it 27-13. Rodney Harrison lays out TO and Freddie Mitchell knocking them both out of the game (wishful thinking maybe).

Yes Dowzak is on the Shattuck prep team but is originally from Fergus Falls. Volpei is on the U-16 team. Sounds like our kind of recruit (a little undersized but seemingly great ability).

I would like to see Purpur get it being as he is the hometown boy. He also has good credentials (assistant ad at Stanford). I think the first order of business for the new ad should be to get Lennon signed to a long term extension. He definitely deserves one IMO.

Matt Watkins has been picking up the slack as of late. He is on an eight game scoring streak. The last four games he has had 2 points in each game.

What website did you find these stats on? I know someone had a link before but I couldn't make it work.

I didn't see this posted anywhere on here so I thought I would post it myself. Okposo officially verballed to the Goofs as of the 16th. Bummer but expected.

So far Brad Miller has 2 pts (1 goal and 1 assist) so far with about 10 minutes left in the game tonight.

Does anyone know of a link to stats for BGMR? I would like to see Kimbroughs stats.

Welcome to UND Jonathan.

Actually, I believe that the Lamoureux twins are on the girls prep team not junior prep. Last I saw they were second and third in scoring on the team and are only ninth graders.

Sorry I just noticed that redwing beat me to it.

Last I heard it was possible that it was a flareup of the same illness that held him out of most of the year during as I remember his junior year.

Will they let him into the country even??? Those posters are cruel.

I just got home from the Finland versus Sweden game. One thing that was abundantly clear was that the ice is far too soft (the players have been complaining about it too) as I saw at least 3 people lose their edge on the exact same spot. There was water all over the ice that hadn't hardened. I know for a fact that the ice cooling system is awful and hope that the powers that be decide to replace the system in the next year or two. I realize that this would cost a good chunk of money but it seems that it would be good money spent as far as quality of hockey goes.
