They also have many super wealthy donors

This upcoming season is their D+1, which will be in the Dub They'll hopefully be in the NCAA for their D+2

Would be very surprised to ever see him coach in Canada, where he'd (likely) be run out of town in 3 years. He's waiting on the Avalanche or a young US team where he's guaranteed 5 years minimum.

Just seems like North Dakota has price points they're not going to go above for NIL, which is the unfortunate reality

Mews can adequately fit at 1D as the offensive right shot. Seems like I'm the only one who remembers how awesome he was to start last year before he got cheapshotted and taken out for the rest of the season at Notre Dame. That being said, DuPont and Mews on the right side would be incredible for them.

He isn't going to North Dakota, Schloss has basically confirmed it

Hoping DuPont ends up at Michigan

Terrible

Was confirmed yesterday.

I appreciate what Grinnell tries to do to promote the game, but he tries too hard & it makes things weird quite frankly. Would assume that the Ruck Twins have a few schools at the top of their list & will go to the NCAA after one last go round in the Dub.

It's all a bleepshow and regardless of the change, assuming we get changes, I'm just going in with the thought that most guys (who don't sign earlier) will be 3 year producers. Sure, you might have the occasional 4 year guy (or even rarer 5 year guy), but the majority will be 3 year types. Anyone who comes in too early is likely destined for the transfer portal. This is why the rule changes are dumb, you need extra years of junior to get ready for the NCAA if you aren't a rockstar as a 17 & 18 year old.

Carle is a moron if he takes the Leafs job IMHO

Would seem that Michigan needs one of DuPont or Rudolph. They lack right shot D besides Mews (the lack of right shot D probably cost them the Frozen Four Semifinal & National Championship since Mews was out injured for most of the season), they need one of em

Criminal that North Dakota missed the tournament & lost in the 1st Round of the NCAA Tournament in Jackson Blake's 2 years in Grand Forks...

It basically means your Cody Croal types are only 3 year contributors if not only 3 year players. That's the problem. Also, university is 4 years, we should just keep the eligibility rules as is, 5 years of eligibility seems so random & weird, Rules attempted at being rammed through because some basketball & football coaches complained., sad

Keep the eligibility rules as is for hockey. The 5 in 5 is being rammed through for football/basketball purposes and hockey would be negatively altered if this goes through & applied to it

Would hope this doesn't go through, at least for hockey. Hockey's developmental structure is through junior, not HS, in 98% of the world & 90% of North America. Would hate to limit hockey careers by putting a time clock on eligibility

Canadian universities are the equivalent. "Colleges" in Canada are community colleges or prep high schools.

Some will agree, some will disagree, but I'm hoping the NCAA's proposed eligibility changes either don't go through or men's hockey gets an exception to remain as is. The junior hockey development structure (& thus NCAA Hockey structure) would be knocked off its axis if you forced the NCAA eligibility clock to start at age 19. You'd limit careers quite a bit IMHO

Portal: Potter to Michigan State or Burnevik to Minnesota Major Junior: Barabanov to UMass

Several guys might wait until after the Draft

Wonder if this will end up being a Minnesota, North Dakota, Michigan recruiting battle

Hometown listed as Victoria BC on the Dub website

Quebec born, raised and played all of his minor hockey in Western Canada
